"Tell me a story," "It doesn't matter if it's true. Just tell me something, anything." Lyra said [i]Was she talking to me... or just speaking out loud?[/i] Finrod thinking perhaps she was looking for some sort of comfortable feeling... but not knowing many engaging stories... Unsure of why... but Finrod feels he would do what ever Lyra asks... this scares him to the core, its not like him, he has been so isolated from companionship for so long...

[i]Well.. here goes nothing I guess[/i]

"Amidst the towering pines of the Whiterun Hold, a lone adventurer named Elysia roamed Skyrim's vast expanse. Wielding a blade forged in the heart of the Throat of the World, she sought solace in the land's rugged beauty.

One fateful day, Elysia stumbled upon a small village nestled between the hills. Its residents, hardy folk accustomed to Skyrim's harsh climate, greeted her warmly. Among them was a blacksmith named Erik, his eyes revealing tales of longing and unspoken dreams.

As Elysia assisted the villagers and forged friendships, she discovered Erik's unfulfilled desire—to prove himself as a capable warrior. Determined to help, she trained alongside him, sharing her skills and knowledge earned through countless battles.

Days turned into weeks, and Erik transformed into a skilled warrior under Elysia's guidance. Together, they faced the challenges Skyrim threw at them – bandit camps, ancient ruins, and fearsome dragons. Yet, in each trial, their bond strengthened.

One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, Erik gathered his courage. With a heartfelt confession, he admitted his feelings for Elysia, and to his delight, she reciprocated.

Their love blossomed, and soon they found themselves standing at the precipice of High Hrothgar, overlooking the breathtaking landscape. Skyrim, once a land of solitude for Elysia, had become a place of love and companionship.

In the glow of the setting sun, Elysia and Erik exchanged vows, pledging to face the challenges of Skyrim together. With a happy heart, Elysia realized that the true treasures of Skyrim weren't just the shouts of power or the riches hidden in ancient tombs but the bonds forged in the crucible of adventure."
