Diary of a Night Wraith

  • Greetings, please allow me to introduced myself. My name is Alexianna Rubi Bloodheart, most just call me Lexia, and this is my story.

     

    As a child I grew up in Cyrodil, never new my parents, I was brought up in Bruma by Letta Bloodheart who owned an ran the inn there. And up until my nineteenth birthday I believed I was as normal as anyone, then things changed. Let me explain about that day, it was the fifteenth of Last Seed, 4E 201. The day began as normal, Letta nagging my head off about me sleeping in til late morning. Honestly I had began sleeping a lot during day light hours, I actually thought I might have been getting sick as the day light seemed to make me feel weaker, I had less energy. Though as much as she nagged at me there was slight worry in her voice.

     

    Around noon we were working at the inn, as usual I was left with cleaning. Bad enough when the locals are constantly "making a move" on you but what's worse is when it's unending. By Sithis I mean I was almost afraid to bend over in front of one of them. Now I know not all men are like that, but after you have repeatedly turned down the same ones a few times it gets old. Well back to the point, anyhow. I'd say it was about 2 p.m. when this elderly nord walked in, gave me a rather cold glance and proceeded to the counter where Letta stood, asking if he could get a room because he was tired from travel, evidently he had crossed to Cyrodil from Skyrim.

     

    Nothing really unusual, had travelers almost all the time because of how close Bruma was to the border, what I didn't expect was while when I decided to take my break and head out to the statue at the eastern gate was him following me. That kinda hit a nerve, but I just let it be, figured it was just another man I was gonna have to let down. Now what shocked me is that before he approached me he called me by full name like he knew me. So he had my attention, and I stupidly let my guard down. He was with the Vigilant of Stendarr, honestly I had no idea what the vigil would want with me.

     

    He seemed distrought about something.

    "I'm sorry, but even half blooded abominations can't be allowed passed Stendarr's gaze."

     

    I truly had no idea what he meant til he asked about a birth mark on my left shoulder in the shape of the daedric symbol for Oblivion, the rest of his questioning made me very uneasy. Like he knew what was going on. Next thing I know, before I can bat an eye he casts a paralasis at me, which any other day should have left me helpless but for some reason it had no effect, now I am a Breton and even Breton magic immunity isn't that strong. I did notice however when he hit me with it my birth mark burned a little. Then he stated it was too late as the blood was already taking over. He then proceeded to inform me I was half daedra, a spawn of Nocturnal no less. Now I wondered how this was even possible because I know the daedra do exist, but to breed with a mortal, how and why?

     

    He then proceeded to tell me that such children of Nocturnal are referred to as " Night Wraiths, and that soon before they reach their nineteenth year their powers begin to awaken. I was astounded, me a half daedra, I couldn't be. I was in denial, I had always believed daedra to be completely evil. Well, eventually he informed me that if I wanted proof, then I would need to travel to Skyrim, but he would not go with me. Upon asking why, he replied, telling me about a civil war going on. Afterwards telling me to be careful when crossing the border.

      Thanks,  and I am about to start the story itself, the diary thing is just so I have my draft idea. The story itself is called " The Daughter of Evergloam."

    Well this is an interesting start.... Spawn of Nocturnal? That's certainly different. 
    May I suggest that you break up the writing block into paragraphs? You've probably transferred this direct from the old...  more
