Summary
Kaiya, Skyrim's hot mess of a Dragonborn with a tortured past and a drinking problem, finds herself lost and in need of purpose after handling the Alduin threat. After some well-timed and clever pleas from Brynjolf, she decides to come out of her debauchery filled retirement and join the Thieves Guild. When she meets the dark and brooding Guildmaster, her purpose becomes clear: make that sexy SOB fall in love with her. Little does she know, she's joining the guild and tempting the Guildmaster at the worst possible time...
This story is my attempt to answer the challenge of "is it possible to write Mercer Frey into a Byronic hero?" I don't claim ownership of any of the characters in this story except Kaiya, and I tried to stick to canon as much as possible throughout. As I wrote this story, I imagined that anyone reading it would have a basic knowledge of the game and specifically the Thieves Guild questline, so that I could just write in the gray areas and not retell the story everyone already knows. My heroes are flawed and tragic, and are by no means healthy, but I hope you come to love them as much as I do.
