Spårlöst Försvunnen (Vanished Without A Trace) by PeanutBrittles
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Summary
The title is Swedish, which is a nice nod to the Viking roots of Skyrim.
Modern woman falls into Tamriel. Specifically Skyrim. I wanted to attempt a more realistic take on what it would be like to suddenly appear in a violent, medieval magical world like Skyrim for a modern 21st century woman. Basically, it would suck. But also...be pretty? And yeah, really suck. Poor Sarah. But don't worry, Vilkas makes it all better, eventually.Inspired by the Tenth Walker genre of Lord of the Rings fanfiction. But hopefully without the Mary Sues. Ha.
Creative solutions to vanilla problems, butterfly effect, evil really sucks when you're actually living with assassins, werewolves, blood sucking vampires, soul storing gems and so on.

Summary
I broke down El'vhen into component parts and replaced the elided apostrophes. This is still fan fic, because despite having a linguistics minor, I could be very wrong. But if I'm not too far off, it should give us the tools to make new words.
It's mostly all translated from canon sources (Katiebour's Cypher) and the wiki.
It really shouldn't need to be said.
I am violently against AI. Do NOT put ANY of my work into ANY AI system, including Deep-L. I'm happy to provide phrases and translations if you ask.

kaija.rayneI can't do anything about scrapers. But willfully putting my weeks of work on this project into any variety of AI is absolutely offensive.
I'll take all my fics and the dictionary down if I find out about it.
AI is *awful*. Putting someone else’s work into one is not only copyright violation, it means you should take a good, hard look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself what the actual fuck are you doing?

Summary
Such a scattering of scars make a road-map, both to places much loved and memories best forgotten.
A girl thrown into a world made of monsters. A ghoul who may be one himself. Both are searching for things they never knew they wanted, and the only way they can find them is together.
ON HIATUS... Sort of.
I am writing sporadically, but this story is pretty emotionally taxing, both for you to read and for me to write. I have been going months between updating and I don't think it fair to new readers to get so invested in something that isn't complete, so I just felt it better to let everyone know. Thank you to those who have been so encouraging and stayed with me while I work through some things both in my life and in my writing.

Always Read the Fine Print by paraparadigm

Summary
Vera's world ended not with a bang, but with a whimper: the year is 2095, the world in the throes of late-stage climate change. The Earth will keep going, the humans - not so much. As it turns out, the apocalypse is contagious: either that, or she has spectacularly bad luck. Waking up naked on a bloody altar isn't the best introduction to a new place, but you make do with what life hands you. After a rocky start, Vera finds herself in Markarth, trying to make a new home for herself amidst the violence, corruption, and Thalmor zealotry. But just when things are finally settling down - as much as they can in the city of blood and silver - a Nord and a Dunmer roll into town with the mother of all bad deals. Always read the fine print.
This series starts about a year before the events of the game and will continue through the timeline and the DLCs. This fic is the first installment. Canon-compliant(ish), but skews towards a lot of original content. Narration is in 3rd person limited; the protagonist is not the Dragonborn.
Please note: content warnings applied to individual chapters.
