You know I just had an idea that came to mind somewhat similar to what Zonnonn said. Perhaps to make your hiatus from your character actually a meaningful part of it, you could weave into the roleplay a reason for the character themself to "take a break". Maybe they need time training with the Blades for their upcoming dragon fight (or in your case, Mehrunes Dagon fight). Maybe they need to lay low after one of their recent heists went wrong. Maybe theres a powerful spell they want to master but need time to study it. Or perhaps adventuring has taken such a physical toll (one I couldn't begin to imagine, the physical abuse I put my video game characters through is unthinkable) that they need time to rest in their luxorious manor they often leave vacant. These are just a few examples but I think it would help (And I definitely would write it down along with other things like Zonnonn suggested) because trying to jump right back into the middle of a quest or task that was not previously tapered can kinda be a buzz kill and make you not wanna play that character.
