The Dragoon In Skyrim - Volume 1 Chapter 100 Destroying The Eluvians
“So where are we going?” asks Mina as they traveled south from Denerim.
“The Brecilian Forest, we need to get a Mirror we left behind there. It could lead to another World and we can’t have that,” says Vincent as not only Mina was surprised by that.
“What do you mean?” asks Flemeth curiously.
“In Kirkwall, I and my brother found an Immortal that tried to find Eternal Youth. He even searched in another World and was about to make a deal with some Velen Crones. Ever heard of them,” says Vincent looking at Flemeth who seemed too surprised to know anything.
“It seems you don’t know about them,” says Vincent when Mina looked at him worried.
“Your brother, you mean Arkay was in Kirkwall,” says Mina as Vincent nods.
“Yes, he was there we killed the Immortal and confiscated everything he had in his Black Emporium,” says Vincent as Mina smiles.
“That old custom of yours to pillage everything that isn’t nailed to the ground,” says Mina as she remembered the good old days.
“So those Velen Crones. How did they make contact with said Immortal?” asks Flemeth worried what that could bring.
“They used a Mirror that I have stored in my bag. We should be safe for now but if they could use the Mirror I have they could use another one as well,” says Vincent as Flemeth was pale after hearing that.
“We have no time to waste then,” says Flemeth as she rushed her horse.
“Stop!” shouts Vincent as Flemeth stopped when Vincent continues looking at her seriously, “You shouldn’t be this hasty. We need to stay calm even if something out of your calculation is happening right now.”
“Those Velen Crones could come any moment to Thedas and you say I shouldn’t worry,” says Flemeth angry as Vincent nods.
“That’s right. We can’t make a mistake in all this rushing it won’t help us don’t forget that,” says Vincent as he began to move again while saying, “Also, I want to visit a Dalish Camp while being here.”
“We have bigger problems and you want to visit a Dalish Camp,” says Flemeth angry as Vincent nods.
“Yes, I need to visit them because I have an interest in two siblings in said Camp,” says Vincent as Flemeth wanted to say something when Vincent says, “Don’t forget who you are talking to. I know that the Velen Crones need to be stopped but I have other priorities since they aren’t going to appear in Tamriel.”
Flemeth couldn’t keep arguing with them when they followed Vincent’s lead. They were about to reach near where the Camp was the last time only to find the place to be empty.
“It seems they left here long ago,” says Flemeth as Vincent jumps down from Behemoth and looks at the tracks.
“They moved a week ago. It seems we passed them,” says Vincent as he mounts Behemoth and continues, “We will continue on our way towards the Mirror.”
They continue passing the former Werewolf Hideout until arriving at Solas’ former Temple. There Vincent touched the Mirror and sends a Magic Impulse into it breaking the Mirror and the Mirrors connected to it.
“With this, the Mirrors should become useless,” says Vincent as they returned outside.
“We going to track the Mer Clan?” asks Mina as Vincent nods.
“Yes, we need them to watch over our steeds while we go to Antiva,” says Vincent since he didn’t want to but Behemoth and Lily in danger.
They returned to where the camp used to be and Vincent begins to track the trails the Dalish left behind. They took a day following the trail when an arrow comes for them.
Vincent catches it and smiles while saying, “It seems you people still haven’t changed. I’m here to meet with Keeper Marethari. She knows who I am.”
Two hunters reveal themselves by walking out from behind the trees and looked suspicious at them when Vincent says, “If you don’t believe me you could ask Lyna and Theron. They know me too.”
The two hunters disappear from their sight and the three waited there for their return when Flemeth says, “Do you think you can make the Dragons follow your lead.”
“We will see once we are there. If I can’t there is only one way to deal with them,” says Vincent as his voice was cold at the end of the sentence making it obvious that he would kill them himself if they aren’t useful.
The Hunters returned with Keeper Marethari and her First when they were close Marethari sees Flemeth and wanted to knee in front of her when Vincent smiles.
“It seems she knows who you are,” says Vincent while the Hunters and the First were confused about why their Keeper was kneeling in front of a human.
“Asha’bellanar,” says Marethari as the First suddenly kneeled too because she knew the title while the other two just copied the two.
“You know very well that I hate it when someone bends his knees to fast,” says Flemeth as Marethari stood back up as well as the other.
“But I must show my respect to you,” says Marethari as she looked at the other two and says, “Nice to meet you, Ambassador Highwind. You brought someone else this time.”
“Yes, my first wife, Mina Ayrenn,” says Vincent as Mina looked at Marethari and gave her a little bow.
“Why are you here?” asks Marethari as Vincent smiles.
“Right to business. Well we need you to take care of our steeds for a while because we will be traveling somewhere far and taking them with us would be too dangerous,” says Vincent as he jumps from Behemoth.
“Why then come here with them if you could leave them in the city?” asks Marethari as Vincent really began to like the woman.
“Because it is a secret mission regarding High Dragons,” says Vincent hinting at what he was about to do.
“Do this for me, Keeper,” says Flemeth as Marethari nods and guides them into the Dalish Camp.
“Theron would like to meet you since he ran away last time with you to chase after an Elven God,” says Marethari as Vincent smiles.
“He wasn’t a God. He was a mortal or he wouldn’t have died by my hands,” says Vincent as Marethari was staring at him.
“Who did you kill?” asks Marethari curiously.
“He was named Solas you would call him Fen’Harel. Anyway I thought Theron would have informed you by now,” says Vincent as he looked at the Camp.
“It’s always good to have a second opinion before fully trusting the first,” says Marethari as they arrived at where the Dalish keep the Hallas and Marethari says, “Leave them here. Maren will take care of them until you return.”
“Thank you,” says Vincent as they began to leave the camp while Marethari followed them leaving the hunters behind.
“When will you return?” asks Marethari as her First seemed to want to ask something.
“In some hours if it’s a good day if not in two or three days,” says Vincent as he wasn’t sure how long they would need.
“We will await you then,” says Marethari as she leaves while a disappointed First followed her because she didn’t get a chance to ask something.
“We should move before I transform,” says Vincent as both women nod before making more distance between them and the camp.
Then Vincent transforms into a Dragon and puts both on his back before flying off. He was in the air when he asks, “Where do I have to fly to?”
“North once you see a swamp you will know that we are there,” says Flemeth as Vincent flew North overflying Denerim making many people restless while others were calm.
They overflew the Waking Sea as they arrived at the Free Marches before reaching Antiva as they were overflying the Green Dales when they could see a swamp that was quite big.
“We are there,” says Flemeth as Vincent began to fly lower to land in the swamps.
Once on the ground, Vincent turned back and they were now forced to walk the rest of the way as Flemeth says, “I really hope that my daughter doesn’t try to kill us.”
“Why would she?” asks Mina as Flemeth smiles.
“You could say that every one of my daughters tries to kill me one day,” says Flemeth cryptic making Vincent smile.
“That only means you didn’t raise them right. You forced them to be something they didn’t want to be that’s why they tried to kill you most likely,” says Vincent as Flemeth could only nod to that.
“I did what I must do so Thedas doesn’t end up destroyed,” says Flemeth as she looked in front and sees a woman with black hair and the same hairstyle she has.
“I will wild guess that she is your daughter,” says Vincent as Flemeth nods.
“That’s right, she is Yavana, my daughter,” says Flemeth as they approached the woman that was right now walking in the swamps.
“Yavana!” shouts Flemeth catching her daughter’s attention.
Yavana turned around as she looked at the three and recognizes Flemeth quite fast while saying, “Mother.”
Yavana take a precise look at Mina and Vincent before asking, “Who are they?”
“They aren’t from Thedas. You remember the stories I told you about another Continent,” says Flemeth as Yavana nods.
“They are from Tamriel then,” says Yavana as she was walking towards them holding a bucket while asking, “Why are you here?”
“Because of the Dragons,” says Vincent as Yavana looked at her mother seriously.
“You are talking to someone that is called the Dragonking, dear Yavana. He told me that he killed the World Eater Alduin taking his place on top of all Dragons,” says Flemeth as Yavana wasn’t believing anything for now.
“I was hoping on making those ‘Dragons’ into mounts for the Dragoons of the Empire since they must be easier to handle than my brothers on Tamriel,” says Vincent as Yavana glared at him quite viciously.
“Dragons aren’t pets,” says Yavana angry as Vincent smiles.
“I know that very well. I was a Dragonslayer since I wielded a spear. I was trained to kill Dragons from a young age and ended a war between Ishgard and the Dragons. So don’t tell me that Dragons aren’t Pets,” says Vincent angry as his aura was showing because Yavana was underestimating him.
The Twin Dragons were breathing onto her and Flemeth and both were nervous because Vincent seemed to not control them as they opened their mouth and the fangs were visible.
“Calm down,” says Mina as she grabs his hand and uses a calming spell on him.
“Ishgard?” asks Flemeth as she didn’t hear about where Vincent is from really.
“My Nation,” says Vincent as he stopped talking before saying, “But we should take care of the Dragon Business before talking about something else.”
