725: Dear Miraak
The Temple of Miraak was utterly vanquished against the might of a single Dragonborn and as Jon got a hold of one of Miraak's cultists, it was time for interrogation.
Who are you? What is the Cult of Miraak? Where did people like you come from? And what is your goal here?
Jon was asking nicely but after hearing the usual "Captain Piss-off" ...

724: The Temple of Miraak
The Temple of Miraak was a fair riding distance from Frostmoth Fort. To Jon and Wulfur, they teleported instantly down the hill where the temple was.
As they landed, the scene they saw baffled Wulfur quite a bit. As for Jon, he narrowed his eyes and started counting.
"Sky above!" Wulfur exclaimed at the sight of a Dragon Graveyard,...

723: 21 Years of Longing
Frostmoth Fort was at the southwestern edge of Solstheim and it is where the Dare Troopers gathered.
Jon negotiated with Councilor Morvayn of Solstheim to have his 500 Troopers land on the island with their gear and weapons. This would be a breach of the contract which stated that no more than 50 personnel of the DDTC should be on So...

722: The Situation of Solstheim
Three of the ships headed towards the south of Solstheim while one headed towards the north of Raven Rock and the last remained on standby at the sea.
Each of the Dare Fleet ships is uniquely designed to fulfill a certain purpose. While they were all considered warships, the Imperial Laws were clear about who can own this class of f...

A/N: I was having some depression lately so I couldn't really work well. Sorry about that.
"Well, this is truly unfortunate!"
"I have a hole in my chest.'
"A keyhole."
"A HOLE IN MY CHEST!" Jon shouted with a devastated face, "A man has two holes, and a woman has three. Why do I have three?"

"So you took the artifact from that demon of knowledge guy, sealed it in the shadow gate beyond his reach, and when his agent came to you, you declared war on him?" Shadow asked.
