In Which Gyllerah Saves the Ebonheart Pact
And now, back to ESO! This post covers Gyllerah’s first week of February action, and while half of that week was a lot my doing the usual writs, surveys, crafting, and selling stuff, the actual adventuring featured finishing up the Cadwell’s Silver plotline for the Ebonheart Pact. Basically three sessions’ worth of actual action for that week.

In Which Kendeshel Destroys the Dark Brotherhood and Excavates at Rkund
Back around to Kendeshel’s run in Skyrim. This is her last session from January, and I have two more sessions of hers after this one before I’m caught up.
In this one, main action is assorted side stuff from Anniversary Edition content; destroying the Dark Brotherhood, but picking up an extra side quest as a result of that, courtesy of Legacy of the Dragonborn; running Darklight Tower; and also, running the expedition at Rkund, significant Legacy content. Obviously, lots of spoilers here for the Legacy of the Dragonborn mod.

In Which Kendeshel Takes Windhelm for the Empire
This is a single session post, because I want to give myself space for commentary for Kendeshel finishing up the civil war in Skyrim–and also, for having significant plot kick in for Legacy of the Dragonborn. Side helping here of running more of the mage college plot as well.
Spoilers here for the Legacy of the Dragonborn mod: services available from particular NPCs, the beginning of the “Shattered Legacy” plot, and some hints about backstory for Auryen.
