I did feel compelled to write this, but mainly because of Ulfric. I'm a sucker for a redemption story and once I'd decided I was going to fix one of the most difficult NPCs in the game I got a bit obsessed with it for a week or so.

I like writing for you guys though. If it hadn't been for all the interesting prompts, Dyce wouldn't exist in the first place. And all the lovely comments too ;)

I can imagine Ysolda and Dyce would have an odd relationship. "Um, hi. You may remember me as the guy who gave you a mammoth tusk and bought a wedding ring while really drunk...anyway, GUESS WHAT?" Although I think he'd be a bit more subtle and tactful, really.

Yeah, really, anyone who knows about shouts should have picked up on Paarthurnax, even if they were just a youngster. Maybe Ulfric wasn't as dedicated in his studies as he'd like people to believe.
