*** (8/26/2020) This story is nearly a year old and my first one. I am going to be in the process of editing it now that I'm learning to write better. The story will remain true, just with improvements

Summary
This story begins with a nobody.
Seemingly worthless and desperately afraid, a woman finds herself held prisoner by the Thalmor. Her only hope of escape - to trust a swordsman with a past that might be even darker than her own.
The two of them fall headlong into a destiny that will shape, or possibly shatter, the entire world. Sometimes the bravest and kindest people are compassionate not because they're virtuous, but because they've experienced the cruelty of Man and Mer at their worst. With that experience, a mark is left, a need to protect whatever good is left in the world, a need to make sure no one else suffers as they did, a need to destroy anything that might threaten the people they love.
Friends are made. Battles are fought. Dragons, Divines, and Daedra dog every step. The right choices are not always clear as they try to overcome the scars of their pasts, the guilt and regrets that everyone carries, the wolves that hunt us all.

Summary
The Minor House of Nerussa demands recognition and respect; their diplomatic ties and unlimited coffers are certain to give them the status of Great House in Morrowind, provided they do one more thing... marry its only heiress, Gwynileth Nerussa, to a member of another Great House. And her parents have chosen the one who abused her.
Frightened and despairing, Gwynileth flees from Morrowind to Skyrim, chasing ideals of happiness and simplicity. What she finds is more than expected: and they came in the forms of a man with unknown origins and amber eyes, an Imperial intent on discovering secrets of the Dwemer, and a Khajiit who wants nothing more than to be a friend and a hero.

This is a story of trauma, healing, adventure, friendship, and love. Please mind the tags; there are mentions of rape and abuse in this story, as well as canon-typical violence. It is likely the darkest story I've yet written (not dead dove, though), so please be mindful of this! The rating is liable to change from Mature to Explicit, depending on if I ever get the courage to take that leap.

Summary
In all her years, Leahan had only known her mother to be afraid of one thing: the Voice.
Since childhood, the young daughter of a Reachfolk augur had only heard of the Nordic art through the recounting of how the Bear of Markarth had reclaimed the city with it, stories of men being blasted off of ramparts and blown to pieces with a word. To her, there could be no joy in such a gift. Not for her. Not the power that scarred her mother so.
So of course she had to be the one who ended up being the Dragonborn.
The gods must be laughing at her.(Utilizes content from the Kaidan 2 companion mod.)
