Brianna and Faendal do a mission for the Jarl of Falkreath. Drama ensues.
Another nice night shot. I want one with the Northern Lights (aside: I have never seen either the Northern Lights or the Milky Way in real life. In the game, I often stare at them for minutes).

After a previous particular mission, Bri and Faendal ended up with some new gear.

"Look! I'm a housecarl! LOL!"

Bri: Shh! We're sneaking!
Faen: But, we're in the middle of the road.
Bri: Right! It's the last place they'd expect!
Faen:

And then the drama. They had to clear out some bandits. No problem. Except Faendal literally stood by and did nothing while the bandit chief pounded on Bri with a warhammer. So later, when they returned to Falkreath....
"I think it's time for us to part ways."

Bri: Why are men jerks?
Cow: Moo.

Falkreath was a drag. She is so out of there. She's headed towards Whiterun. I fear she may be contemplating suicide-by-dragon. What she needs is a new companion, one who's more reliable. One who knows what it's like to be a Dunmer alone in a hostile land.
Edited to add: my next character is totally going to be a Khajiit. He'll be based on my sister's Abyssinian, who is a devious little sneak-thief. I want in on the kitty fun!
