in the base of the many mountains in Hjalmarch two miners spoke between themselve with great joy.

"You lucky bastard, actually being able to find these many ore veins untouched by that witch they call a jarl in morthal"

"What can i say i'm blessed by talos himself" The miner spoke as he puffed up his chest.

The other miner rolling his eye's "Yes yes your blessed and all that now let's get to work as quick as possible don't want anyone else getting word of this before we make our share of the wealth" He spoke while grabbing his pickaxe.

"Good point" grabbing his pickaxe as he hit the vein "I can see it now in a few weeks coin will start pouring from all directions"

"Then mine faster.. Hmmm?" Looking behind him.

"What's the matter?" The other miner spoke

He stood still vigilantly waiting for anything few seconds later he shook his "Nothing must be my imagination"

THUMP THUMP THUMP....

Silence filled the air as continous stream of arrows hit their body's, Looking at his dead friend his eye's reddened yelling "You Bastards!!!" But as he turned to face his enemy an icicle was flung straight to his head killing him instantly.

Tap Tap Tap..

Deactivating his [invisibility] A hooded pale skinned man wearing dark robes walked up while nodding his head in satisfaction "How lucky" He smiled showing fangs that shone brightly with the moonlight.

Turning his head as he spoke to his thralls "dispose of the bodys and make a camp here"

His thralls rushed in carrying the corpses away while setting up wooden walls around the area.

............

A week passed and ever since Leon killed the two miners the camp has evolved into a small fortified fortress while his thralls killed and captured passerby's to limit the spread of such information.

Leon looked upon the newly captured breton woman as he beckoned her "Come closer" The woman shivered but can only obey as she came closer a pair of hands wrapped around her.

"Don't worry i'll have just a taste" Leon spoke while he sunk his fang to her neck drinking the warm and delicious blood.

The woman stood still pale faced and breathing heavily as she felt her blood leave her body while a hand fondled her chest.

Removing his fang's "See everything will be alright" The breton woman can only let out a breath of relief until the Leon continued "but of course you still need to alleviate my other needs right?" She can only nod as the hand that fondled her breast made it's way under her skirt.

....

After a night of pleasure he let his thralls bring her back to the cells, He unrolled a map 'Now that my desires are satisfied it's back to business' Circling the current location of the camp 'With the mine in full operation and with all the captives we have been able to capture i was able to speed up the gathering and mining of ores and with that i should be able to trade with morthal sooner or later meaning more gold equals better armor and weapons for my men'

He then circled the nearby marshes 'After sending some of my thralls to scour the areas they were able to find some places to harvest alchemical ingredients like the swamp fungal pods and giant lichen. as well as Other plants like canis roots, mora tapinella, spiky grass and a few scattered nightshade plants. which should be only found in this region of skyrim and if everything goes well with morthal i might be able to get some connections outside of the region mostly alchemist and mages who don't want to traverse this deadly marshes and gather the ingredients themselves"

He nodded his head in satisfaction as his plan is more or less coming to fruition but while things are looking up there still a far but a heavy threat that still grows in his mind he called out "Thorgrun!!"

Seconds later a Tall Orc went inside "Lord!!"

Leon beckoned him towards the map "What are the movements of the vigilant of stendar so far?"

Thorgun spoke reverently "There has been no unusual movements from them my Lord, they are most likely just passing by morthal because of it's foreboding reputation among travelers"

Leon nodding his head and letting Thorgrun leave "That's at least one threath i don't have to worry about for now" Thinking of other factors that can threaten him made him grit his teeth 'Dragon's, alduin some fucking degenerate Demons who dont have anyhing better to do with their lives. I need power and fast combing through his past memories. His eye's brightened 'Got it Red water den! and the blood spring underneath it' going straight to his map 'It should be somewhere in the rift while not exactly the most helpful of information i at least have a direction to head towards to in the future, what else' snapping his fingers 'The vampires from the dlc what was it again..... the volkihar vampire clan if im right they should be the most powerful court of vampires and are also able to turn mortals or at least the dragonborn and i presume regular vampires into lords with their own kind transformations' but thinking further he wrote out such a thing happening.

'The chances of me actually finding the place where serena is sealed will take luck that reaches the heavens and even if i'm able to do such a thing 'how can i be sure that i will be rewarded the volkihar bloodline. it at least made sense for the dragonborn since it was a game danger and reward are always hand in hand and if we were to look deeper how would i know if selena hasn't already been rescued' shaking his head too many variables and not enough benefits ' for now i should focus on getting good relations in morthal and their jarl then slowly expand my power throughtout the holds in skyrim either it be ore trading or ingredients only time can tell..
