Where Are You Today? Options

[mirocu]

Will Lothie be stopping at the University this year?

He has indeed been to the University. Mostly just to look at the place and collect ingredients though, no spells or enchantments made. I believe it may be the third year in a row with no new additions. Possibly second. After years of fine-tuning his spellbook, Lothran is happy with what he has.


No sign of Buffs

[Renee]

Renee Gade III is still in Chorrol. Good to see Lothran is moseying about.

[mirocu]

And good to see he's not alone!


Chorrol, eh? That's always Lothie's first stop after his winter hibernation i Bruma

[mirocu]

Lothran is now in Aleswell.


That is all

[Acadian]

Nice to follow along with Lothie's annual pilgrimage circuit. Next major stop (after some goblin huntin'): Bruma!

Thanks! Sorry for having you sit through all that text. I'll try to make next update a bit shorter

[mirocu]

Today Lothran paid a visit to Ancotar who, despite over a decade has passed since the little incident, still won't go up and talk to the Dunmer siblings in Aleswell. He's glad they are visible, though. Makes it easy to avoid them...

Yeah, what's up with that novel you just wrote, Tolstoy?

Last I saw, Renee Gade III was headed toward Fort Ash. The goblins who reside within haven't a clue what's coming toward them.

I got the writer's itch, I reckon

Run away! RUN AWAY!!

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

After waking up in the morning, Lothran grabbed his gear, bade farewell to the Dunmers running Aleswell Inn, and was out the door.


He had done this for quite some years now, the white-haired Dunmer from Morrowind. Little had he known and few were his skills the day fate gave him a chance to redeem himself and let him out of that prison cell. Now, he was quite the competent fighter as well as mage and few were those who posed a challenge to him. He had also amassed quite a healthy savings account and he could quite easily earn more by selling tickets to what many would call a museum. To Lothran though, it was just his home.

After some time up the mountainous path he reached the crossroads from where one could choose to go to either the Imperial City, Chorrol or Bruma. As usual, Lothran took off his huntsman's vest here and instead donned his cuirass, helmet and gauntlets, all made out of fur. Not only did they protect the Dunmer from the cold he was about to face yet again, with their enchantments they also protected him against both magic and steel.

The Jerall Mountains laid ahead. Cold, windy and not a whole lot in terms of things to eat straight from bushes or trees. There were plenty of wolves, bears and ogres though, who all could withstand the harsh environment and who were always on the lookout for their next meal. For some, these are not quite ideal conditions and those people would probably opt for say Anvil with the warm beaches instead. But Lothran had only warm feelings when he once again saw the beautiful mountains and felt the cold wind in his face.


When the door to his house slammed shut and he could smell the air from months gone by, his heart felt peace.


Lothran was home.

[Lopov]

mirocu, you're writing a fan fic.

Welcome home, Lothran.

[Acadian]

Yes, welcome home for the winter to Lothie! I'm sure he wasted no time getting his fireplace going! Or perhaps it was already lit thanks to Olav. Or maybe it was a passing wood elf. . . .

[Renee]

mirocu, you're writing a fan fic.

Right?? I'm in shock.

I like that he changed into warmer attire before climbing up the hill. Some of mine do this too. Renee definitely does... she can't be wearing her skimpy Xena armor when it's freezing.

Aw, what a touching end.

[mirocu]

mirocu, you're writing a fan fic.

I call it a speedbump

But hey, it was fun to write that. Just came to me. Lothran's journey north does that to me

I'm sure he wasted no time getting his fireplace going! Or perhaps it was already lit thanks to Olav. Or maybe it was a passing wood elf. . . .

No roaring fireplace when he got there, but it will roar tonight. And said wood elf is welcome by if she pleases

Right?? I'm in shock.

Sorry

Yeah, changing to warmer gear right there is also something he's done for many years. It just seemed suitable for the last leg to Bruma.

Welcome home, Lothran.

Yes, welcome home for the winter to Lothie!

Aw, what a touching end.

Lothran sends his thanks to all!

[mirocu]

After some wandering in the Jeralls not too far from Bruma, Lothran decided to call it a day and go back into town. Apart from buying ingredients from the Mages Guild, he also paid a visit to Hafid at the Jerall View before spending the rest of the evening at, you guessed it; Olav's Tap and Tack

[Renee]

Lothran goes beyond the call of booty ... I mean duty, that's for sure. Bruma really better appreciate him.

Renee Gade III is still in Chorrol. I should be playing Skyrim by now, but I keep having problems with this quest I wrote for RG3's game, and I must fix these problems for her first. Because it becomes almost obsessive with me, fixing problems. Right ghastley?

[mirocu]

Lothran goes beyond the call of booty ... I mean duty, that's for sure. Bruma really better appreciate him.

It does

Just today he cleared out Plundered Mine which isn't far from Bruma. As always he helped himself to whatever stuff he could find which only consisted of gold coins and lockpicks. Two things he certainly doesn't need more of

Renee Gade III is still in Chorrol.

Bu...! Bu....! Bu.. Chorrol is reserved for early spring! You can't go there until the beginning of March!



Or is that just me? ... ....

[mirocu]

In the last few days, Lothran has cleared out both Plundered mine and Capstone cave. As usual nowadays he went in all gung-ho and mace blazin' which always sparks up some attention. However, when walking through Rielle just now he did it all sneaky-sneaky, just like the old days. Fighting undead is such a bore to Lothran and they never carry anything interesting on their not-person anyway.
This did allow Lothran to practice getting in, grab what he wants and then getting out without anyonething knowing he was even there.


When back out on the outside he witnessed something fun. A forester was near the ruins, as well as some deer and a bear further away. The forester began chasing the deer and shooting at them with his bow. He got one but when he went for the second deer he must have spotted the bear and designated him the bigger game and thus the two went for a brawl. The encounter was won by the forester, but not by much. When Lothran came down from his viewing position up on the ruin, the forester had but sliver of health left. A few more blows from the bear and the outcome would have been different. The bear btw had nine arrows in him but I reckon many more was fired as all arrows are never found in a target.


Now, the forester has spotted the second deer again...

[Renee]

Bu...! Bu....! Bu.. Chorrol is reserved for early spring! You can't go there until the beginning of March!

Ha this made me laugh/! mirocu / Lothran are so set in their ways! At this point I think something would be missing if the slightest change occurred in their routines. I must drive you crazy with all my different characters, ideas, and ... well, actually I don't have that many different characters in this game. I've been with the same three for years now.

WHOA he went into Rielle???? Talk about breaking routine!

Does he ever go into Applewatch or whatever that cabin's name is? I bet Lothran is friends with that lady, huh?

[mirocu]

I'm surprised I actually don't have a list I go by when playing - "At this date, do this"

WHOA he went into Rielle???? Talk about breaking routine!

Yeah, well kinda. He often goes into it but only the first room to the left. Rarely does he go through the whole thing and never without fighting everything. That was the biggest routine break.

Does he ever go into Applewatch or whatever that cabin's name is? I bet Lothran is friends with that lady, huh?

Actually, he never visits her. Don't know why but they never really made friends

[Acadian]

Those suicidally funny foresters!
