Managed to catch an hour before work today. Things I learned: Vorstag is a surprisingly good companion, Frea, of Skaal Village, is also awesome, and these idiots really need to stop getting in the way of my arrows. I kill them and need to reload more than I die and need to reload. The latter almost never happens, but the prior happens a lot.
For example, the battle at the end, right before I found my first Black Book.
I had decided to use Jzargo's Flame Cloak scroll, since I was finally remembering at a time when there were actually the undead about. So I fired it up. Pun intended. The first time, Frea tried to kill me because she got to close to the OBVIOUSLY ON FIRE me. The second time, I killed my dog because he caught on fire and croaked. The third time, Vorstag left my service. The fifth time, I charged ahead to kill everyone, then hid in a corner until the flames wore out, creeping steadily back every time Meeko tried to follow me and hoping I wasn't getting near enough to start the boss-level draugr fight just up the ways a bit.
For the record, Apocrypha is the coolest daedric realm ever. It's like Lovecraft met Borges and they had babies made of AWESOME. The entire realm is a gigantic library with tentacles all over.
After my adventures in the scary library, I went back to Skaal Village with Frea and received my next duty: find a word of power. I did so rather quickly, and now I just have to destroy the temples that Miraak is building around the stones. Easy peasy?
