a lil oneshot for the ides of march! (not actually i wrote this like...4 days ago) a writethrough of skyrim's opening scene centering my LDB. here's the ao3 description:
On a sweltering summer morning in 4E 201, Tharya of Whiterun is a prisoner of the Empire in the back of a rickety wooden wagon rumbling towards Helgen, where she, the horse thief, and the Stormcloaks captured with her are set to be executed at 10 A.M. Terrified of her fate, Tharya begs the Imperials to let her go free, especially so close to her home city and family. In the face of Tullius' clamor to win the war, Tharya does die that day - just as she will die every four thousand years when she returns to defeat Alduin, riding the sways of Time until the Wheel churns her out again to face the World-Eater til the end of eternity.
