Skyrim fic plug! by Neshomeh on 2017-09-03 04:47:00 UTC Reply

So, uh, this is the first serious fanfic I've written in a long time. I worked hard on researching the lore, since I'm kind of a newbie to TES. I've been sitting on it for months due to real life stuff, both for me and my betas, but now everyone has signed off on it, so here it is:

"Eyes on the Horizon" - rated T
Before Ethne and Farkas can leave Solstheim, Wulf Wild-Blood sends them on a mission close to the Companions' hearts. Spoilers: Dragonborn's main quest, "Filial Bonds," and "Retaking Thirsk"; also the Companions' questline and the conclusion of Skyrim's main quest.

I would greatly appreciate feedback, on ff.net if possible, but here is good, too. I am very anxious, but concrit is always welcome.

Thanks to all my betas for doing what they could, and props especially to Maxewell. He was both timely and thoughtful, and even though I didn't agree with all of his suggestions, I appreciated them. 10/10, would work with again.

I'm always a sucker for TES, and this was a great fic! I'd recommend it to anyone generally interested in TES.

I think I'll let my review speak for itself, but I'll add my kudos here.

If you're a fan of Skyrim, give this a read. It's excellent.

Muchas gracias for the review. I'm glad you liked it! Especially the sweet bits. One of my betas thought I might be overdoing the number of those, so I'm keenly aware it might not be to everyone's taste and am very happy at least one person enjoyed them.

And yes, there will be more. I have written an insane number of words covering the main questline and the Companions questline, up to Dustman's Cairn and the immediate aftermath. None of it is quite ready for beta yet, but I'm getting there!

~Neshomeh is practicing being a real writer and typing words almost every day!

And I might be an outlier, but Farkas and the Dragonborn being all cutesy together is basically me and Aegis, so I know it can happen in real life. :P

Also, I hope you're pleased, I'm gonna end up wasting the day on Skyrim because of you.

Can't wait to see your take on the quests!
