Legends of Skyrim: The Sapphire Smuggler (BOOK THREE)
"Scouting reveals potential market expansion, due to distrust of established dealers." - Skooma Runner Logs In the golden sands of Elsweyr, Ji'ssa Janmin danced between shadows as a cunning skooma dealer, her wares whispered promises of euphoria to those who dared indulge. But when treachery slithered into her circle, betrayal forced Ji'ssa to flee her homeland, leaving behind the warm embrace of the desert winds for the frostbitten embrace of Skyrim's harsh north. In the shadowed alleys of Riften, where whispers of thievery echo through the cobblestones, Ji'ssa found refuge among the outcasts and rogues of the Thieves Guild. With her sharp and agile claws, she swiftly climbed the ranks, her past in Elsweyr fading into the mist as she forged a new path in the land of the Nords. But even amidst the Guild, echoes of her past haunt Ji'ssa's steps, reminding her that in the world of shadows, trust is a rare property, and betrayal lurks in every corner. Now, as she navigates the intricate web of Guild politics and personal vendettas, Ji'ssa Janmin must tread carefully, for in Skyrim, survival belongs to the cunning and the quick-witted.

Moonlight's Eclipse (Brynjolf/OC Fanfic)
I'm Russet. I'll admit I'm not the honorable person I used to be. I'd help the Jarls, save towns from monsters, and roughhouse with my fellow Companions. But I'm no hero, not anymore. I'm a thief, and it's time I embraced that. I'm a Nord with blood on my hands, a sinner's soul, and a lifetime of bad choices behind me. We all make mistakes; it's just hard to believe that mine led me here. ___ This is the official edit of my previous Brynjolf/OC story, Moonlight's Embrace. I'm leaving the original up, but I figured that since the edits are basically a different story, I might as well. I hope you enjoy what is essentially Moonlight's Embrace 2.0! Rated R/Mature for violence and sexual content. NO LEMONS. VERY STEAMY, NO SHADES OR SMUT. NOTE: WATTPAD HAS BEEN REARRANGING MY STORY PARTS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS HAPPENS. SERIOUSLY. PLEASE. I WOULD RATHER REARRANGE THE PARTS EVERY SINGLE MORNING FOR YOU ALL THAN LOSE YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT AS A READER. Highest rating: #1 in Morrowind #1 in Skyrim #1 in Russet #1 in ScrollsComplete

When a poor Breton slave meets a master thief who for some reason decides to help her. Viriel was a servant and Brynjolf was a lowly thief. They both fight to stay together and keep each other safe. Will Viriel survive her life as a servant long enough to get out?(description will be edited) Started August 10, 2025. Finished August 15, 2025. Cover is mine obvi(that's why it's lazy I guess). I don't own Skyrim or its characters. I only own Viriel and her pictures. First time writing seriously in maybe three years. Chapters will be published daily(for the most part). This story will contain mature content. Also, I've come to realize that the villain in this story is basically just Cinderella's evil stepmother. I will be writing another Skyrim fanfic after this one with the Taliesin mod.Complete

Walk in the Shadows
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.Complete
