    In Which the Dragonborn Follows Up on that Wolf Queen Problem

    Highlights of last night’s Skyrim run:

    • Taking another crack at Mount Anthor and finding out about the “source of power” there
    • Getting a direct request from Elisif the Fair to take her slain husband’s war-horn to a shrine of Talos
    • Returning to Solitude to report in on that–only to learn from Falk Firebeard that oh shit Potema’s spirit is still active and loose in the Solitude Catacombs
  • Alarrah Playthrough

    In Which the Dragonborn Makes the Thalmor Very Cranky

    This post actually covers both Saturday and Sunday for Skyrim–because going through the Thalmor Embassy quest, “Diplomatic Immunity”, took a lot of work. And I backtracked a couple of times, not only during that primary quest, but also afterwards when I was trying to decide what to do next.

    So, major highlights of this post include:

    • Infiltrating the party at the Thalmor Embassy, in a rather more violent manner than anticipated, yet also getting out alive with NPCs and the information Delphine sent me there for
    • Going to Solitude after to knock out a couple of minor quests: finding out for Angeline what happened to her daughter, and getting Noster’s helmet back for him

    Let’s get to it, shall we?
