The destruction of my mortal enemy came with sacrifices ranging from loyalty to love to life itself. The consequences are dire, and I may have to choose between them. My loyalty to the Guild, my love for a place within it, and my very life are all on the line.
As I always say, seize the day-- you're never guaranteed the next.
-----
Rising Shadows (RS) is the sequel to Moonlight's Eclipse. This continues the rewritten story of Russet and Brynjolf, and I hope you enjoy!
RS takes inspiration from my original fanfic Moonlight's Embrace and all Elder Scrolls games (yes, including Arena).
Rated mature for violence, mild language, and sexual content. As always, no lemons, but I do have some borderline citrus... use your lovely imaginations, my friends.

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
Progeny - Book IV
*COMPLETE* "There are no leashes now, no bindings," she says, her voice a dark lullaby in the flickering candlelight, "and it is their sacrifice that gave us this. Nothing can ever repay it.

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.

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.

I don't know what I did to deserve this. Sundering of my soul, the destruction of all I held dear. Well, that's a bit dramatic, but hey. I've got to tell my story, don't I? Though I'll admit... perhaps the savior of the world isn't quite so honorable as she should have been. Let's get the exposition over with-- Why in all of Tamriel did I sell my goddamn soul?! ------- Hello! This story is currently being rewritten as Moonlight's Eclipse. It's quite the improvement!

I went to Riften for a break. Being an adventurer isn't exactly an easy job all the time. Yet the first thing I do is get mixed up in the Thieves Guild. I must be a damn genius.
