Confessions (Taviverse Part 5) by OneMoreAltmer
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Elder Scrolls Online
04 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
For years I knew that I wanted to write Martin's perspective on the Oblivion Crisis as played out in my previous fics Apotheosis I and II, and to answer some important questions. What was he up to in his Sanguinite days, and what made him quit? How did he crack the secrets of the Mysterium Xarxes and at what cost? How did he come up with his plan to get Tavi to Aetherius and how did he pull it off? He was frustratingly closed-mouthed on these issues for ages...
but then there was Skyrim, and then Elder Scrolls Online, and the gaps they filled in my knowledge let me find his secrets. Come get the tea in what I expect to be, at last, the final installment of the Taviverse, in honor of the re-release of Oblivion. Readable on its own but likely more satisfying if preceded or followed by the rest of the series.
A note for those wondering why I would spend so much writing on this specific story. It's because, besides liking the main pairing's position in the main Oblivion arc, I was playing with how much philosophical and theological musing I could get away with in smutty fanfic (and how much smut I could put in, etc, etc).Series

Summary
The new Harbinger of the Companions is embarrassed to admit she has a bit of a crush on BOTH of the wolf twins. Vilkas - intelligent, fiery, and tactical. Farkas - strong, passionate, and soft-hearted.
Unfortunately, when Masser is eclipsed, the twins find themselves unable to control their more primal urges. Combined with the lycanthrope Harbinger's pheromones, the night could only spell disaster.
Is this really the kind of "love" she was hoping for?

Two Dragonborns in Cyrodiil (Snow White x Miranja) by LadyTanithia for LadyTanithia
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
30 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Miranja feels close to Snow White in a unique way unlike anybody else. Maybe its because she's a Dragonborn, or maybe its because she's still mourning the love of her Talvas. Either way, Miranja trusts her hagraven Dragonborn friend enough to introduce her to her parents! Now with the changing of the season, the Mara festival in Bruma is in full swing, and Miranja wants to take Snow White to see it!
Snow White is more than hesitant to meet Miranja's parents, but her newest fixation seems insistent, so she complies. Little does she know the visit won't be simple. Miranja's father is totally hot, Nebarra and their son Aidewynn somehow get involved, and an evil wizard is trying to decimate the city right under their noses!

The Love We Deserve by MareenaVee for IndorilJinumon, Cethlenn13
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Elder Scrolls
12 Mar 2024

Summary
Not all that which fades into the shadows of ancient Nordic ruins are agents of darkness. I’ve learned as much, though the lesson has been a long time coming. Peace is not, and has not been, my main priority—not with the prophecy, or death by dragon hanging over me wherever I go. It is, perhaps, the reason I am called to do this thing—to put to rest two souls whose hearts have been apparently keening out across all of Skyrim for time out of mind. Not that I can hear them. Perhaps the quest came to me because I cannot—and had ought.
Dinya didn’t say as much, but I imagine the thought was in the back of her head.
Then again, Mara’s voice was not one I’d sought. Not after everything I’ve been through in this regard. But those are stories for another time. My pain, as far in the past as it lingers, can wait another day.
I had decided to make my way toward Rorikstead on my own. This is not a complex task, and my associate could do more good back in Riften than out here in the woods. She, of course, did not see it that way, but promised she’d look after Dinya while I ran this errand.
And so here I stand—alone and freezing—out in the wilderness.
It is rather fitting.

Almost Too Easy - Cycle I: Life Is Short in Skyrim by KJ_Whatsername
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
25 Dec 2023
Tags
Summary
Fired from her dead-end job, dumped by her cheating ex, and sick of her family’s constant pressure to wed, a modern girl makes a frustrated wish upon the bottom of a bottle. Clavicus Vile grants her wish—to live in a world where finding a husband was easy. After a friendly visit from the bumper of a Class Four semi truck, she wakes up in a rickety wagon headed to a war-torn land, where life is short, and people have a different idea of marriage.
Now stuck in Skyrim with nothing but an Amulet of Mara to her name, she starts off as a nervous wreck with no knowledge of combat, survival, or the meta to give her an edge. With her smart mouth, healing hands, and a rusty iron mace, Laira must learn how to navigate the harsh reality of life in Tamriel, as she struggles to recognize the difference between falling in love with and owing a debt to the man who saved her life.
“We could at least make the most of the days we have together before I go. And I promise my family will take good care of you.”
“Hahaha! Wait, you’re serious?”

Uphold the Light by MareenaVee for Kookaburra, mishcellany
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Elder Scrolls
20 Oct 2023

Summary
Under murk as thick as mud in riverbeds, twisted between the roots and rocks, pestilence sleeps. They feed it—your kin, your neighbors, your leaders—with the souls and limbs of my daughters. Their bones sink into soil, once barren, and my gifts upon them are returned to Nirn. Their souls, however, are lost. I do not hold them in my arms. I was not granted the final embrace. The thing which calls itself the savior of this barren ground keeps them in constant torment, fueling His realm. The exchange for their suffering is the prosperity of your people. You understand there is something amiss. In tilling the fields, you’ve found the bits of bone devoid of marrow, the teeth, the nails. Reldith implores your ignorance, insisting all fields are the same, and heavy is the burden of a farmer turning soil which has been home to ghosts of bygone ages.
You know, deep down, there is more to this than she insists. You do not speak your apprehension at her statement, though you have toiled with the worry sprouting in the back of your mind.
I cannot take these fears from you, or to protect you from the tremors of this deal—or what it would mean for the pact to end.

Summary
The Akatosh of this timeline uses people from other worlds as his Heroes, especially those who have been mistreated and pushed aside despite their sacrifices. For this Hero, the Last Dragonborn, he picks an especially young hero, one who has taken on tasks much too large for his young age and has been shown little thanks. Also he conveniently has a spot in his soul where a dragon soul would fit in quite nicely.

Summary
This story follows the misadventures of a Breton named Nelar Granir. One of the last Vigilants of Stendarr roaming Skyrim. He always strived to help others anyway he could; even to his own detriment. Be that curing disease or purging undead along with other abominations. The world changes underneath his feet during an eventful return home. This takes place before and after the events of the Dawnguard DLC. What starts as a quest of revenge and atonement, reveals motives and players beyond fathoming.
Trigger Warning: "The Fallen Vigil" contains themes and content that reader might find especially disturbing including, but not limited to referencing: suicide/suicidal ideations, self-harm, self-hatred depression, anxiety, implied/sexual assault, implied/torture, and hyperviolence.
The last thing I'd want to do is remind people of trauma, so I do ask you read with caution. My intention is not to glorify or condone any of the above, but to acknowledge grim topics rather than ignore them.

Summary
She was not a match for him in combat. It was unfair for them to fight; his age, discipline, magic, and knowledge outclassed her youthfulness. He loathed the day they would have to fight and Herma Mora would steal her soul from the world just as the prince had done him.
When that day came, however, it was her resourcefulness that outclassed him.
She used her status as a hero and slayer of Alduin to get the Aedra's help and free him.
Now she is stolen from him into another world altogether.
He must rescue her as she had done for him all those years ago.
--------------
Miraak loved her the day he met her. He tried his best to pretend he did not, but he looked ever forward to stealing her next dragon soul just to see her again.
Now nothing, not worlds, nor magic, nor false gods will keep them apart. Not while Miraak and Mindora yet live.
From across the fabric of realms and worlds they were drawn to each other. Two dragons bound by fate. -

Summary
The most common folktale among the Ancient Nords, was their creation myth. Legends say that in her grief over her beloved husband's death, Kyne unleashed her wrath upon Tamriel. The winds were said to be her shrieks of fury and the relentless rains her tears as she cursed the Elven Gods. When she finally calmed, she drew a trembling breath and sighed deeply- exhaling upon the Throat of the World. In her breath and the stirred up snow, the first Nords were born.
The true events, however, are much more complex.
