The very first time I entered Blackreach, I was sad, speechless and awestruck. It was a place out of dreams and nightmares, both beautiful and frightening. I wondered how this place must have been when the dwemer were still around. Now, it was silent, almost like a tomb. The silence was only interrupted by strange chiming sounds. Did the noise come from the iridescent mushrooms? Did I just hear a Falmer breathing in the shadows? What else lurked in the darkness?
My heart was also filled with sadness, because I had lost J'zargo somewhere in Alftand. I proceeded to the small dwemer building you see when you first enter Blackreach. I waited for what seemed hours, yet no J'zargo. I felt overwhelmingly lonely in that huge, seemingly empty place. So, I took the first elevator I saw back to the surface and got my husband, Vorstag. Together, we combed through Alftand and finally found J'zargo's body. I had to resurrect him. He walked away from me, angry that I had hurt him so much. I understood.
Then, Vorstag and I set out to explore Blackreach, a place of mystery and wonder. The first time I entered Blackreach will always be a bitter sweet memory.
