Chapter 8: Two Mothers (2/2)
Hilda finished the bottle in one go and looked at Nurina with narrow eyes then said: ”Unless…”
Nurina thought for a second about what Hilda meant with ”Unless” she soon found the answer
”Unless you are froical answer
'The Blades' archeneuards of the Emperor after the Akaviri invasion in 1E-2703 Foruard' they served Eh history to be known as 'The Blades' guards of the eence operatives
The White Gold Concordant that was signed to end the Great War between the Eeous ter the worshi+ping of the ninth God of the Empire 'Talos'
Nurinasuch a truth about Jon's family, she even felt sad for Hilda and her husband
”During the war, I was one of the Nords ere dispatched to the Empire as reinforcement And after the treaty, I felt betrayed The Ehty Talos I was so asha After that, we heard that Hammerfell refused the treaty and made preparation for war I traveled there with my brothers and met with a former commander from the 'Blades', he was to be Jon's father Co the story to Nurina, as so i
After some time they reached the part when Hammerfell decided to make a treaty with the Dominion which was known as 'The Second Treaty of Stros M'kai'
There Jonnrad and Hilda felt uneasy The 'Thal faction in the 'Dominion' will for sure send their spies and assassins to root out all of the unwanted trouble in Hammerfell
Due to some reason, Jonnrad couldn't leave Hammerfell, so he sent his most trusted nant at that tiht so she had to hide in the Empire as a detour to lose the 'Thalmor' on her tail and she finally made it a year later to Skyrirand adventure and was taking a huge liking on Hilda, different froe of the mother who abandoned her child, Hilda was like some heroine in her eyes
Nurina talked about herself before co from Morrowind and talked about her life with Jon, and about their tiny adventures and discoveries
Hilda was at her wits end froic was so unheard of, and his accomplishments and studies were on the par with soe of Winterhold
”But one thing I don't understand” Nurina asked, ”Why did the Thalet you until now, I mean it has been 10 years and I am sure you have your secrets but you don't have to hide all that much”
Hilda was astonished of Nurina's observation, she looked at her and sighed, ”That is indeed another story, yet the ones the Thal for is notbloodlust was clear in her voice, ”They are after Jon, the fckers are after my son”
Nurina's eye shrunk and she stood up, her expression was like a scared cat that was about to cry, her soft voice was shaken and she only ry face
Hilda rudely stretched her ar at it was a Black-Briar mead, she opened it and walked to the , there was a beautiful view of 'Lake Henrich'
Ten years ago on the other shore of the lake, she stood and gave her child to a thief so he can live in peace away froht that followed her for a year went ht and she traveled to her clan for hiding ahting in the war, an accident happened in the 'Imperial Library', the inner circles of the commanders only heard about this but it was revealed on a later date to the people The disappearance of 'The Elder Scrolls'” Hilda stopped talking giving Nurina a breather after soaround the room not sure how to handle so many information 'The Elder Scrolls', such a naends and ed the face of the era itself
The Elder Scrolls also called the Aedric Prophecies [A/N: Aedric froood Gods, bad Gods)] are scrolls of unknown origin and number which simultaneously archive both past and future events The number of the Scrolls is unknown not because of their immense quantity, but because the number itself is unknowable, as the Scrolls ”do not exist in a countable forments of creation fro prophecies is but a small part of their power They simultaneously do not exist, yet always have existed
[A/N: Witness the power of the Wiki, MWAHAHA No, seriously speaking the elder scrolls is so iame itself is 'The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim]
No one would ether in such
”What does the Elder Scrolls have to do with Jon?” Nurina finally organized her thoughts and asked She finally arrived at the three points of issue 'Thalo before I knoas pregnant with Jon, I met a Moth Priest from the 'Cult of Ancestor Moth' in a market in Hammerfell He was blind but it looked like he could see me He came to my direction like mad and when he tripped and fell he crawled on all fours till he got tolike mad and said ”I found it Not one, not two, but three You carry a child who is fated to carry three scrolls of the Gods” I knocked the priest out and ran away from the market When Jonnrad heard of it he devised a plan to lead us away froave birth to a boy and ran aith him from Hammerfell just as Jonnrad planned Jonnhild was born year 4E181 named after his father and me A year later, I arrived to Skyrim and you know the rest”
[A/N: Cult of Ancestor Moth are a cult of people who can read The Elder Scrolls but they get blind after doing so]
So that hoas it really happening, such a child carrying such fate is sure scary Not any parents could deal with such prophecy, yet these two kept their cool and ht choices under pressure
That was admirable effort but too bad Jonnrad was nowhere to be found
”So what should we do after that?” Nurina was already planning ahead, ”He can't stay in the orphanage after the age of 15 and truthfully I was planning to take him with me to Winterhold With his ideas, he can make more wonderful achieveood idea but he needs to be e on his own” Hilda added
”Coe? Don't tell ry at such words
”Those are the traditions He ht like a Nord I know you don't like and neither do I, what kind of e? But that's for his best” Hilda resolve was fire what lies in the future of such a kid is e for soh his talent will support him no matter what he does, I am sure of it” Nurina came to the sa he can on” Hilda rehed softly, the sweat on her face was already wiped away and she was feeling better She offered Hilda a bigger bottle and opened a one for herself The two hs, they were already releasing so of the two ret they could not prevent in the not far future
