In Which Elessir Acquires Mehrunes’ Razor and Quests Through Rielle
Continuing my hard push through getting caught up on my backlog of playthrough posts, here’s the next one for Elessir in Skyrim! Main action here: reforging the Gauldur amulet; acquiring Mehrunes’ Razor; taking out Aesrael and acquiring the Elven Hunter armor; slaying Crowstooth and acquiring the dragonplate armor; clearing Arcwind Point; and last but not least, questing into Rielle to see what the Mythic Dawn cultists are seeking in its depths.

In Which Kendis Becomes Thane of the Reach and Does a Lot of Fishing
Still working on clearing side quests in Kendis’ journal in Skyrim, before I send her off to Solstheim to go toe to toe with Miraak! Mostly, this meant becoming thane in the Reach, getting Vlindrel Hall, and doing a bunch more fishing to get the overall Fishing quest lines finished up, including defeating a giant spirit crab in Dawnstar.

In Which Shenner Opens an Oblivion Gate
Big crunchy session, in which I ran the entirety of the plotline called The Cause–featuring an attempt to resurrect the Mythic Dawn cult of Mehrunes Dagon, and reopen an Oblivion Gate! I’d been looking forward to running this and am pleased to report that it did not disappoint. š

In Which Shenner Defeats a Forsworn Fugitive, a Bandit Chief, and a Giant
Main action in this session was finally resolving the Bones for a Crow quest, as well as the quest A Dying Wish. These sent me to Arcwind Point to finally slay the Forsworn fugitive Crowstooth, and also gain the gratitude of Rulnik Wind-Strider for saving his life, which now makes him available to me as a follower. Also, I ran a couple of bounties, and have Windstad Manor in progress!

in Which Shenner Gains a Farm and Joins the College of Winterhold
Very eventful session, chock full of new things, including doing more fishing, getting several more interesting plot hooks, and most notably, acquiring a farm near Rorikstead! But at the same time, I also went off to join the mage college. Gotta learn from somebody how to use all these spells Iām picking up!

In Which Ysani Defeats Alduin in Sovngarde
This post, as anticipated, covers Ysani’s final session! Started with the peace council at High Hrothgar, hit two different dragon lairs, and then finally reported to Dragonsreach to call Odahviing–leading to Skuldafn, and finally, to Sovngarde!

In Which Merawen Finally Fights Alduin and Also Acquires the Wabbajack
I boinged around a lot in this session, but in between all of the fast traveling, I did actually also revisit the main plot! Which meant taking the Dragon Elder Scroll up to the top of the Throat of the World, learning Dragonrend, and having the first round of fighting with Alduin.
And Alduin was only one of the dragons I fought in this session, though unlike the two Revered Dragons and the Ancient one, he actually survived the fight!
Next to that, doing the Mind of Madness quest and getting the Wabbajack from Sheogorath was a relaxing vacation. š
