Where Are You Today? Options

[mirocu]

He got a mod for that many years ago now but you are correct; he did use the torch trick earlier which worked fine. But a proper fire in the fireplace is nicer

[mirocu]

Capstone cave cleared again. Found another friendly female Khajiit bandit at the second level. I seriously have no idea why they seem to fancy Lothran but hey; who am I to question it?

[mirocu]

Lothran is now at his westmost point and is about to turn back home. Only bears along the way and then a Daedroth at the turníng point. I like big enemies; the bigger they are the easier they are to hit with a ranged weapon

[Renee]

The 'torch trick' is what I would've done in early days on PS3

Oh yes. Lady Saga, my archer, loved the bigger enemies; better for target practice.

[mirocu]

Now visiting Azura's shrine. A pretty uneventful journey but get this; the bandit corpses at the camp close to Dragonclaw Rock; now they're there again! Last time the camp was empty and prior to that Lothran killed the two bandits residing. No idea why/how two dead bodies went missing and then turned up again!

[Renee]

One of those non-beneficial glitches, perhaps.

[mirocu]

I would have been less surprised if their heads were stuck in the ground and their legs up in the air twitching like manicas. THAT would have been Bethesda!

---------------------------

Lothran has now woken up in his home and is once again ready to head out. Think he's gonna check Plundered Mine again to see if there are any new playmates there

Middas, 5:50 PM


Lothran is now on his last 24 hours in Bruma for this season. He's currently sitting at Jerall View and has one more evening left at Olav's Tap and Tack. Come Sunday in our world he will pack up his gear and leave for Chorrol.

[Acadian]

Ahh, a sure since that spring is approaching!

[mirocu]

Lothran has now left Bruma.


Fireplace put out early in the morning, Snowflake put into its drawer, and with everything picked up from the travel chest upstairs Lothran exited his house and locked the door.


For the first time in months, it wasn't snowing anymore. The sky was clear and one could see for miles. Heading west, Lothran passed all the places he visits during his winter stay but now he pushed on, not going back to Bruma like he usually do.


Passing the shrine to Hermaeus Mora and going up the stairs, a Spider Daedra was waiting for him. Being not much of a challenge she was quickly disposed of and Lothran went past the point where he usually turns around. He's currently standing on the platform with some stairs going down. Still close to the mountains but now with more green in front of him.


The city of Chorrol awaits.

[Acadian]

Safe travels, Lothran!

[mirocu]

Thanks, mr Paladin!


As it happens he's just raided Lipsand Tharn and killed off 12 vampires, making Cyrodiil just a little bit safer. Well, his Spriggan did it technically I s'pose...

[mirocu]

Well, Chorrol is now Lothran's base camp but he's currently out in the mountains again although not in a snowy area.

[mirocu]

Today while roaming the Colovian Highlands, two things of note happened.


First thing was when Lothran descended from a higher point into a valley. Across it and onto another higher point he spotted a minotaur and between it and Lothran was a bandit. Wanting to see a show, Lothran cast a spell towards the minotaur to get his attention and when running towards the Dunmer he instead got into a fight with the bandit. This is always fun and had it been a Lord, the minotaur would have won, I'm sure. The bandit and another one close by later succumed to a couple of ogres.
The bandits originated from Broken Promises cave which was right in the area, a cave very similar in design to Capstone Cave btw.

Second thing happened when Lothran got a telepathic message that a Courier was in distress. Not know exactly where she was he ran to the road leading to Chorrol where she usually travels and sure enough; there she was being attacked by a wolf and a cougar. Both were slain by the Dunmer and as thanks, the Courier gave him a paper which is free anyway...


Now Lothran sits at the Oak and Crosier, a tavern known for its high number of shady Dunmer patrons. It's late evening and the fireplace warms Lothran's back as he chose the table closest to it.

[Acadian]

Sounds like fun starting a fight between that bandit and the minotaur. And good job saving that courier!

Buffy has leaned quite a bit more into healing (and magic in general) in ESO but I remember she went out of her way in Oblivion to save and heal foresters, legionnaires and couriers.

[mirocu]

Sounds like fun starting a fight between that bandit and the minotaur.

Not the first time either, and this usally happens right in this wide open area where you can see for a long distance.


Sound like Buffs and Lothie are two peas in a pod sometimes

[mirocu]

So Lothran keeps on roaming the Highlands. Visited Fort Ondo and is now heading back up to Chorrol again. He was last seen at Broken Promises Cave.

--------------------------------
Crumbling Mine.


Upon entering Lothran saw a bandit in the very first room and so he kept hidden and summoned his Spriggan. But... she didn't attack? After further investigation the bandit appeared to be yet another FFK - Friendly Female Khajiit. So Lothran exited sneak mode and started smooching her up to 96 disposition. Then he took her gold that was in a nearby chest...


Going further into the mine Lothran eventually got to the Bandit Ringleader which after a short fight with the Spriggan and her bear was revealed to have two interesting enchanted items. After this there was nothing else to do but going back outside.
Coming to the first room again, the Khajiit who Lothran talked to wasn't there anymore! No dead body anywhere and she wasn't outside. She was just....... gone!

A nice quiet day in Chorrol just wandering about. Met Ida Vlinorman as she was leaving the Grey Mare heading for the town gates, presumably to go back to the Imperial City.

[mirocu]

Fort Coldcorn


Many years ago when Lothran first visited this place, he picked up the sword and the note but didn't think too much of it. Only later did he realize that had he not picked up the sword but instead read the note more carefully and followed where the sword was pointing, he could have found something interesting.


It's time to do something about it.

[Acadian]

Oooh! A mystery to hidden treasure?
