Summary
That which is buried deepest demands air the greatest. For a Redguard in hiding from her family's rival faction, the implications of such a truth could not be more frightening. She flees from Hammerfell to Skyrim, seeking to forge a new identity, until fate’s troublesome hand chases her out of Skyrim and into Solstheim. Hidden deep in the ash of the desolated island, she believes she has finally found the perfect place to keep her family’s secret safe - until fate's hand forces her into depths she is sorely unprepared to enter.
The lesson stands again for her to yet learn, or die trying: some evils cannot be outrun, and some wounds cannot stay buried forever.
update 10/13: Part 1 is complete with the publication of chapter 15: 'in another life.'

Summary
Three years she spent running from her destined duty. As the wheel slowly turned upon her, the last Dragonborn, she finds that there was nowhere left to run. When a Thalmor begs her for help, she will have to flee from Ulfric and his campaign to free Skyrim. Flee Skyrim to prepare while dragons ravage the whole of Tamriel.
This story was inspired by the "Diplomatic Immunity" quest. As I was sneaking around, I overheard a few Thalmor soldiers talk about how they were worried about the dragons. Alongside the Dossiers about the dragons, it seemed to me that the Thalmor were concerned and would want to take matters into their own hands. If they stood a chance to gain a powerful ally in the process, they'd be quite focused on retrieving the Dragonborn.

Summary
Ulfric has faced many years since the Great War but there is a face that has hung in silence in his mind since then. All those years later, finding that face again would draw new memories to be made in the wake of the war he waged against the claws of the Empire. And the matter of other claws that would sink into the very flesh of Skyrim itself brought its own problems, along with a mysterious stranger. The path of the future was not certain. But the fresh return of that face in his mind brought questions. Ones he felt needed to be answered.

Summary
Alix de Feu was a Journeyman of the Mages Guild when he was thrown into prison by a corrupt guard. His life was turned upside down one night when the Emperor of Tamriel appeared outside his cell, saying that assassins had killed his sons, and he would be next. It turned out that his escape route from the Imperial Palace went through Alix's cell. Emperor Uriel Septim VII told Alix about his prophetic dreams and handed him the Amulet of Kings, to give to his secret, illegitimate son.
Brother Martin Draconis was a Priest of Akatosh in the city of Kvatch when it was destroyed by daedra belonging to Mehrunes Dagon, the evil Daedric Prince. Sheltering in what remained of the Chapel, he was horrified to discover that he was the Emperor's son - and now the last remaining heir to the throne. With his faith in the Nine Divines shattered, Martin has to follow Alix across Cyrodiil to safety; then recover from his trauma in time to save the world. For the Emperor of Tamriel isn't just a symbolic ruler: his magic seals a covenant with the gods which prevents the mortal plane of Mundus from merging with the immortal plane of Oblivion...

It's paperwork, in the end, that dooms Ondolemar. A mistake, but a fitting one. He's always hated it. He never expected to live through Markarth's fall. He never anticipated there would come a day he actually respected a Nord.
Work-in-Progress.

Summary
Tonight they were playing parts, dancing around each other in a twisted theatre. Nazir, the mercenary for hire; Brynjolf, the highwayman in search of hired muscle. They hadn’t talked about where things would go, only where they would stop; limits and boundaries discussed, safewords already in place. Whatever they chose to do now would be a surprise to them both, but there were rules. No knives, no weapons, no sharp objects. Nothing with any of Ingun’s nasty plants. Nothing too public.
Plenty of getting roughed up though, Brynjolf hoped. Plenty of him getting put in his place.
