Echoes and Fragments - A Skyrim Story

Arc I - Echoes and Fragments

She just wanted to stay alive.
She became necessary.

Armed with a bow, a broken past, and a soul that roars like dragons, Ruby never meant to be part of history. Now, she's rewriting it.

__________________________________

Ruby has no memory, no name, no home.
A wandering huntress, she survives from one contract to the next across the frozen lands of Skyrim.

One day, caught in an ambush between the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloak rebellion, she escapes execution... thanks to a dragon.
The event shatters everything: her world, her certainties, and perhaps even the fabric of Time itself.

Her path crosses that of Markab Steel-Blood, a Nord warrior as calm as she is ancient.
Marked by dragon's blood and centuries of solitude, Markab senses in the young woman a destiny she herself cannot yet understand.

Between them, a bond will form, sincere, unpredictable, dangerous.

As Skyrim sinks deeper into civil war, Ruby must choose between becoming a symbol... or remaining free.
And Markab must decide whether enough humanity remains within her to still believe that history is not doomed to repeat itself.

A saga inspired by the world of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, blending fantasy, tragedy, and the search for identity.
