Just posted the first chapter of my Skyrim fic!
I revised this at least twice before I felt confident enough to hit the “Post” button. I love creative writing but it’s been a while so I may be a bit rusty. I am more than happy to receive any feedback, tips, or constructive criticism so I can improve my skills as I continue to write out the other chapters. I hope you enjoy!
This is the story of Antonella, a young female Nord nearing her mid-twenties, who lived a fairly humble life in Bruma where she played the lute for coin. It wasn’t the most exciting occupation, but it faired well compared to previous jobs that landed her in some rather unpleasant predicaments. Aside from the occasional hangover, Antonella found no difficulties with her current lifestyle. But there was always a part of her that craved more.
One evening, she was offered a challenge to a mead drinking contest by a mysterious visitor. Being a Nord, she could never refuse a challenge - especially when it came to mead!
Little did she know that accepting this challenge would be the catalyst in a series of events that would change her life forever, and lead to her embarking on a journey where she would discover her destiny as The Last Dragonborn.
