Farewell Jennesa....

Post » Tue Sep 11, 2012 2:52 am

...as the last swing of my blade hit the creature it finally crumpled to the ground, all my healing potions were gone, I had eaten every last bit of food in my inventory and my favorite weapon was nowhere to be found; it had been knocked out of my hands during the fight.
The crypt was full of dead bodies but we were finally victorious.
I turned to look around for Jennesa, she had been fighting on a ledge besides the staircase but she had probably fallen bellow while I hit that monster with my Mark of Death shout, I couln′t believe she had ditched her trusty Glass daggers to use a Daedric Axe but she had (as always) pulled her weight on the heavy fighting, as the half a dozen bodies of dead(er) dreught were witness to, and she had given me time to use my dragon shout one last time before landing that final blow
I found my missing bow bellow on the water and as I turned around I saw her lying on the stairs...
She looked quite peaceful almost as if she had fallen asleep ther, unlike the contorted bodies of the enemies arround us...
As I clicked on her her inventory came up and it hit me that she was dead...
I cast a magelight spell to look at her again and while I looked at her I realized that she had probably caught the brunt of the last Mark of Death shout...
I took her helmet and the illusion of her just beign asleep was even stronger
I knew the console command to bring her back...but somehow I felt that that would somehow cheapen that magnificent battle and her final sacrifice...I picked up my gear and turned arround to look at her one last time before leaving he tomb...

Great story, and the final choice at the end makes it seem more real and epic!
