In Which Faanshi Climbs the Seven Thousand Steps
As one does upon finding out one is Dragonborn and being summoned by the Greybeards, Faanshi went on the strongly urged pilgrimage to High Hrothgar. Which, this time through, provided rather more challenging than previous playthroughs!

In Which Faanshi Becomes Thane of Whiterun
In keeping with my play patterns established by previous runs, I made it through Bleak Falls Barrow, the first real dragon fight at the Western Watchtower, and having Balgruuf proclaim me his thane!

In Which Faanshi Escapes the Destruction of Helgen
Let’s get this party started, shall we? Playthrough number five begins with Faanshi of the Khajiit, and also with returning to the English build of the game!
Short session, just enough to get the initial escape from Helgen done, and get the character set up with her starting gear. Got as far as getting the objective to go to Bleak Falls Barrow.

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 Ysani Defeats the Wolf Queen and Becomes Thane of Haafingar
By contrast to the last couple of sessions, this one was very action-packed! Not only did I get Potema settled, I also achieved the thaneship of Haafingar.
And got the Wabbajack on the side. And the 22nd and 23rd Stones of Barenziah!

In Which Ysani Adopts a Child and Acquires Azura’s Star
A somewhat less lightweight session than Wednesday night’s! But some significant life development for Ysani here, as I adopted Lucia in Whiterun to ensure a safe companion and safe place for the adopted dog! And also, I cleared Valthume to kill the dragon priest Hevnoraak (and get Kahvozein’s Fang while I was at it), and cleared Ilinalta’s Deep to acquire Azura’s Star.

In Which Ysani Forges the Aetherial Crown, and Becomes Thane of Hjaalmarch
Very eventful session! Finished running Raldbthar, and got the final shard of aetherium! Did a little job for Olfrid Battle-Born that got him to throw his support to the Thieves Guild! Headed off after that to find the Aetherium Forge, and forge the Aetherial Crown! And last but not least, went to Morthal to help them with a little vampire problem, and helped the folk of Hjaalmarch so Idgrod Ravencrone would make me her thane! So now I have Windstad Manor, and Valdimar as the latest housecarl to join Team Dragonborn. <3

In Which Ysani Returns the Skeleton Key
This is a double session post, covering play done on both Sunday 2/20 and Monday 2/21. I was able to play on Sunday night but only for about 30 minutes, due to having to work on some network stuff on my house LAN, and that wasn’t long enough for a post. So, covering both sessions in this one!
Main action of this post: Ysani reporting to the Twilight Sepulcher, to return the Skeleton Key to Nocturnal, and restore her favor to the Thieves Guild.

In Which Ysani Quests Through the Reach
Did not yet advance the main Thieves Guild plot in this session, but did do some general thievery! Also, running a few side quests in the Reach, including getting the third aetherium shard for Lost to the Ages!

In Which Ysani Works Her Way Towards Markarth
I was in the mood to go overland from Riften to Markarth, and knock down several side quests on the way to getting to Calcelmo and doing the next phase of the Thieves Guild plot. This let me finish off not one, not two, but three different side quests! So a productive and action-filled little session.
