Femke, a Nordic-Bosmeri woman, has come to Riften to start over. She thought she was ready for adventuring in the big, wide world outside of her meager home in the mining colony of Dawnstar. She couldn't have been more wrong. After several mishaps and roadblocks, she stumbles to Riften, footsore, hungry, and with no money to her name, in hopes of finding some good, honest work. But no one seems to trust her because she has elven blood. Turned away and alone, she is found by two members of a mysterious organization operating within Riften. One, a Nordic man called Brynjolf, takes pity on the poor human-elf and offers her a job, and if she does well, a spot within the "Guild," as he puts it. NOTE: If I owned Skyrim, I would have no need for writing fanfictions just for the heck of it. I only own Femke and my original dialogue. Everything else is credited to Bethesda Game Studios.

❝Funny. I've never thought the helpless prisoner beside me would be the fearsome Dragonborn, the new Keeper is a mad jester that will betray us all, and the soldiers are the bad guys. I guess this is how everything unexpectedly changes.❞ The Nightshade Assassin holds a ruthless persona to her enemies and exposes a light-hearted, obnoxious sister to her family: The Dark Brotherhood. She doesn't want anything to change in this happy family, but when the prisoner back in Helgen steals her kill of Grelod the Kind, she might as well enjoy the changes coming to her. But sometimes, they aren't for the best. (The story is 35 chapters not including the extras) Sequel - http://w.tt/1NYbSf5 Extras/Oneshots - http://w.tt/1LhLm1p
