Diary of Kiranyae, 3rd of Midyear, 4E201
Fleeing from Summerset

I can’t believe this is how my life has ended up. On the run from my own home, city, and country. And all because I chose to stand up for my ideals, and dared to disagree with the Thalmor and their ruthless methods. No more. I won’t be a part of their wrongdoings and misgivings. But, where to go? The Empire is not what it once was, and the Thalmor have their grimy fingers in just about everyone else’s sweet roll, too....

Whatever. I suppose I’ll head to Hammerfell and go from there. Nothing remains for me here in Firsthold. Those evil bastards saw to that, when they killed the only family I had left. Rest peacefully, brother, and know the cowards who ambushed you have seen their actions returned in kind. And I won’t stop there, either. Someone has to take the fight to these radicals, and when that time comes, I will be there to lend my talents in earnest.

Liking it so far, especially the lack of cart ride.

But you'll have to watch the perspective. The first sentence is in a narrator's 'voice', and then the rest, even in the same sentence, is in Kiranyae's. That had me re-reading it several times, in case I'd misinterpreted something.

I'm getting the impression someone doesn't like to take sides, and you've already side-stepped world v dragons, so this has potential to be different.

So excited I don't have to cart rides every time, you have no idea.

Whoops, I missed that. Still trying to get back into the first person style - my last story was lengthy and told from a narrator's perspective. kvleft.gif

Thanks! smile.gif
