In Which Gyllerah Accidentally Unleashes Dragons, But Also Saves Stonefalls
This post for Gyllerah in ESO covers a full half a month in time, but a whole lot of that was general writs and crafting action–so less to go over here than you’d think. Main actual RP action here was finishing off the Demon Weapon plot with Abnur Tharn and Khamira; running some side plot action in Stonefalls (some of which was fun, some of which decidedly not); and finishing up the main Ebonheart Pact plot in Stonefalls as well.

In Which Gyllerah Saves the Oracles of Azura and Hunts a Demon Weapon
Swinging back around to getting caught up on Gyllerah’s action in ESO. This set of sessions is mostly all about running prologue plots–specifically, finishing up the Azura oracles plot that acts as the prologue to Morrowind, and the Demon Weapon plot that acts as the prologue to Northern Elsweyr.

In Which Gyllerah Aids the Ebonheart Pact, Hermaeus Mora, and Oracles of Azura
And now, back to Gyllerah! This is a week’s worth of sessions from mid-June, in which the main action was my moving the Ebonheart Pact further along for Gyllerah’s run through Cadwell’s Silver; running the prologue quest for Necrom; and also beginning the prologue quest for Morrowind, which got me some hefty action in Stormhaven.

In Which Gyllerah Vanquishes Molag Bal
By definition every single one of my posts on this blog is full of spoilers, but this one more so than most, since it features the end of the main plot of ESO. If you’re an ESO player, and you don’t want to know specifics of how the main plot ends, you might hold this post until later.
But if you don’t mind that part, then read on! Because yeah, this post’s main action is Gyllerah finishing up the game’s main quest in Coldharbour, and defeating Molag Bal.

In Which Gyllerah Quests All Over Coldharbour
Time for Gyllerah catchup! A bunch of Coldharbour-based adventuring in this one, as well as the aftermath of breaking Gyllerah’s armory station builds again, as I lamented before. And I ran into two notable recurring NPCs, the dremora Lyranth, and the hapless servant Stibbons.
Plus, now that I have an alt, it’s amusing to think about a narrative explanation for why they’re sharing the same house but never seeing each other!

In Which Gyllerah Has Another Reset
Followup on my earlier post lamenting breaking my Default build for my ESO character–because, as I expect any ESO player with an Armory Station can sympathize with, it happened again. This time to my Healer build.
Which was incredibly fucking frustrating, because I’d been getting such great help from my Guild about recommendations for how to set up to be as helpful a healer as possible for running trials.
So, I had to go to the trouble to fix everything again. This time, though, I took some steps to recover from this for the inevitable next time I screw up which build I’m pointing at in the Armory Station.

In Which Gyllerah Has an Accidental Reset
Super short post just to clear my queue and get Gyllerah caught up. Most of this is just briefly summarizing writ and antiquities activity–but also, there’s a cautionary tale about why it’s vital, and I mean vital, to be damned sure of what build you’re on before you save stuff at your Armory station!

In Which Gyllerah Saves Western Skyrim
Another large Gyllerah post, hitting the milestone of her 200th session! Main RP action in this one is a side plot in Coldharbour featuring the Everfull Flagon, and more significant action in Western Skyrim as I finish up the primary plot there.
Also, I got add-ons active on the Steam Deck, and re-ran the White-Gold Tower!
-
In Which Gyllerah Saves the Aldmeri Dominion and Quests into Coldharbour
This is a major point in Gyllerah’s playthrough, because, just shy of 200 total sessions with her, I finally hit the last big stretch of the game’s Main Quest. Which means: I finally made it into Coldharbour and began assembling an army to take on Molag Bal.
But before I did that, I also finished off the Aldmeri Dominion and the Mages Guild plots, which I found quite satisfying!

In Which Gyllerah Quests in Malabal Tor, in Reaper’s March, and for the Fighters Guild
Lots of action in this, featuring moving the plot along in Western Skyrim; running trials with my Guild for the first time; running a side plot at Karnwasten on Summerset; saving the Green Lady and witnessing her union with the Silvenar; coming to the aid of two sisters in Reaper’s March, one of whom is destined to be the next Mane of the Khajiit; liberating Arenthia from invaders; helping some Bosmer brewers out with a drunken mammoth problem; and last but not least, concluding the Fighters Guild quest and discovering who’d slain the previous Guildmaster.
