You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Happens with literally any event that has even vaguely to do with terrorism, refugees, illegal immigrants, or the oppression of ponies. If that part of NS accurately represents (western) society's general thoughts on things, I'm absolutely terrified.

I guess buying food is also the worse option when you can also steal it.


While that is actually relatively accurate the issue with that is that with food you can just buy it once and take it home and your done. With construction work it takes several months and you need to pay people over and over and over again.

If the food is 100 gold. you give 100 once and your done.

with construction you need to give the 100 gold to several people repeatedly until the job is finished.

My Breton isn't made of money. He has whatever amount he has. when its gone, its gone.
He cant magically conjure up more.

That's why I was suggesting things like zombies and daedra lords.
Free workers that can easily be replaced.
But you said no to every idea I had so I have to figure something else out.

If you have learned the transmutation spell, you can turn iron into gold.

Is that an actual spell in the elder scrolls or did you just make that up?

*actually bothers to go look it up*
Huh.... I guess if his magic prowess is up to snuff he can essentially pull gold out of his ass.

Ok normal carpenters and masons it is then.

I think there is an iron mine on solstheim so that will work out.

speaking of my Breton character...

I haven't posted on him since the first post. Has anyone run across him or should he and his cute little kitty girl head into cyrodiil now?

They are marching on razing and raiding three Imperial outposts for allies and temporary stopping supplies to Free Valenwood. I doubt they want to attack you.

They wont join in on the raiding but they wont attack if they don't feel the need to defend themselves.

The Breton is a scholar and the kitty is a little girl.

I thought this Breton was a mage...

I have a pretty good job opportunity for ya: you can be my battlemage! On my ship!
That is, if you want to.
It appears I'm an INTP-T. You're not gonna get much more about me.

Don't think they would care for a growing confederation of criminal pirates and raiders.

I'll have you know you gave me the title of "Admiral." Now, that doesn't sound very piratey at all?

One person's admiral is another's pirate. :p
Titles don't mean much when your still raiding like a pirate on the side, and making a fleet full of pirates based off a pirate fleet legend.

The Breton is not a mage. He is mage-ish as in he knows a few spells.
But a mage is someone who relies almost solely on spells and magic weapons in their fights and day to day life. Mages are people who hang out in the mages guild.

He is not a mage. He is a scholar that knows a bit of magic to keep him alive.
And no he wont join pirates. He tries to stay in the legal side of things as much as possible.
He is a good boy. He only does bad stuff when he feels there is no other choice but to be naughty.

He doesn't want to be a bad influence for his daughter.

But half the fun is in breaking the rules!
And eventually, maybe, just maybe, what we're doing could be called..... "privateering." Because that's pretty much the deal with the Dominion we have atm.

Which is why I have a back up plan when or if this all backfires.

It's not really an "if"
It's pretty much gonna be a "when"
Because if they win, the Dominion will probably turn on us (they're backstabbing elves, after all :P), and, if the Dominion loses, the Empire will probably crush us.
So yes, a contingency plan will definitely be necessary.

Don't worry, Garrak is an opportunist, writing was on the wall when I decided to work with the Dominion.

Not just on the wall.
All over the freaking wall.
It's like one of those walls covered in graffiti in the downtown of a city (if you've ever seen such a place, most likely not everyone has)

I've seen them, and trust me, I don't plan on being the proxy of anyone for too long. Just enough to make some treasure and to complete a goal I had in mind.
