"Stop! You violated the Law!"
Deja vu?
Right now I was currently running from the Goddamn Thalmor who were chasing me through the city of Torval, the mighty city that revered the Mane of Elsweyr.
I leapt over a wooden barrier and used my Hookblade to grab and hook onto a outstretched beam of a building.
Pulling myself upwards I climbed onto the beam and did the same as I made it along the wall and onto the roof.
Some of the Thalmor chasing me shot arrows at me but I easily avoided them as I used objects, walls or other things that would serve as obstacles in their attempts to shot a literal arrow in my knee.
I'm not even joking!
Seriously! I'm not!
They are actually aiming for my legs and primary my knee so that I wouldn't be able to move afterwards to run away.
Jumping from rooftop to rooftop they eventually got the help from a few nearby Khajiit guards which was a serious main problem.
I shot bolts of lightning at the Khajiit in no lethal amounts but just enough to Paralyze them, as I focused my magicka to an amount that would incapacitate their body, nervous and synaptic systems within their bodies.
I did fire off the occasional D&D Fireball at the Thalmor which blasted them away and killed the few weak ones.
I want using my weak spells in case I needed more magical later.
Until I make a ring or item with an Enchantment to bolster my magicka, I can't waste any of it unnecessarily.
One of the Khajiit guards made it close to me and swiped with a poisoned clawed gauntlet at left arm.
However, I waved and outstretched both my hands into a T-Pose causing an invisible shock wave to emerge from me outwards causing the Khajiit to be repealed back through the air.
After seeing that I wasn't cut by the poisoned gauntlet I continued and jumped down to the group below using a modified Muffle spell to negate the force of the landing.
I maneuvered into alleys and tight socks while throwing a few sleeping gas bombs and smoke bombs to help me.
Using my Ring I summoned my Spear and twisted the shaft as I impaled it into the nearby walls and the ground, this created after images of the Spear made entirely from Frost.
When I made enough Frost Psear landmines and saw that both Khajiit and Thalmor were near to them, I activated it by channeling magicka into the Spear's shaft.
This resulted in all the numerous Frost Spear copies to explode and engulf all its targets.
When the mist cleared, the knly thing that voild be observed was that all of them had been frozen solid and encased in ice.
They are still alive but will remain like this for a few hours or will free them should their body and heart show signs of permanent damage.
I'd I had channeled the magicka into the Spear's tip then it would've been modified to be lethal.
Now that most of my pursuers had been incapacitated I was safe to find a place to hide.
I used Illusion magic to conceal my appearance and made my way deep into Torval's lower distruct and used [Clairvoyance Eye] to find a abandoned building where I can stay.
[Clairvoyance Eye] is simply [Clairvoyance] but only I would see the guiding spectral trail but at the cost of it being restricted to a heavily limited range.
I guess I should explain how I got into this situation which isn't really a mystery.
**************************
*flashback*
Nani?!
Fuck!
How?!
I was absolutely shocked and filled with confusion when I heard the Thalmor guards words.
How the Hell did they know I was a Falmer!
The only loving person that knows is Elika and I had made sure to conceal myself, even now!
Putting my thoughts aside to deal with the current situation, I unleashed a [Lighting Bolt] that pierced through the head of the Thalmor guard.
I have no mercy for these High Elf world wide genocidal bastards.
Seeing what I had just done, the other guards began to atke out their weapons while issuing orders.
"Don't kill the Snow Prince, we need to capture him!"
Ah!
That's how, the Snow Prince Prophecy I still don't have a clue about.
I need to capture him.
I placed a small crystal tipped dart and placed it into my Phantom Blade Crossbow.
Waving my hand I made [Sparks] spead everywhere and engulfed the surrounding Thalmor guards.
With the confused and distracted guards and captain, I aimed and fired my crystal dart loaded Crossbow at him.
The crystal dart had a tracking property which will allow me to track him down later to interorgate.
"You gotta catch me first Motherfuckers!"
Throwing several Explosive bombs I made my escape.
Ri'saad and his group had separated themselves before reaching the gate since they don't wnat to be involved or tracked back to should whatever I do in Torval is my problem to deal with, such as my current predicament.
*flashback end*
**************************
It was annoying to deal with but I had tracked down, with the help of the crystal dart inside him, the captain that had blouted out about me being "The Snow Prince".
He was inside of a small complex that served as the base of operations for what I assume to be one of the many detachment of Thalmor troops within Torval and all of Elsweyr.
I was shocked at first seeing Thalmor in Elsweyr, since despite Elsweyr joining the Aldermeri Dominion it was to be expected, although they were hated and disliked by the Khajiit all the same.
The Khajiit only showed respect in fear that the Void Nights would occur again, the Thalmor had lied and taken credit for ending the Void Nights.
Apparently it was apart of a eugenics experiment by the Thalmor using a special talisman, that can move the Moons once used, in order to see if the absence of the Moons would cause the Khajiit to be born as Elves.
It was believed Khajiit was a type of Elf, especially since a God Tier being of status in the lore called Wulfharth had actually killed many Khajiit but had apologised saying he had mistaken the Khajiit to be Elves, who were his enemy at the time.
The Khajiit forever resented Wulfharth from that day since.
I observed the complex through the eyes of my summon [Frost Eagle] that surveyed everything from a Bird's Eye View.
There was alot of strong Thalmor Mages, I can tell cause the density of their magic is the highest I have sensed, on equal or greater levels of power of the teachers at the Magic University and the Arcane Academy of the Imperial City.
(A/n Arcane Academy is Oblivion Mage's Guild. Magic University is original by me and is just a school one can enter through certain requirements, if one shows potential at last year, they are admitted into Arcane Academy 100%)
Formulating a plan in my mind and on the map layout of the complex, I bided my time until I was ready.
Casting [Muffle] and [Spectrum Invisibility] I descended down the rooftop I wS on and made my way to the wall before levitating over it.
[Spectrum Invisibility] is a spell I made that uses magicka to manipulate the light spectrum to make me invisible rather than doing it the ordinary and direct way.
Reason why I did this is because Anti-Divination & Anti-Illusion spells target only the spells that are directly casted on the individual.
But [Spectrum Invisibility] is reflecting light rather than my body, so they are actually seeing nothing in their eyes but I am actually standing in front of them.
Also, I officially broke one of the Empire's major laws outside of the Empire.
The Levitation Act banned all forms of Levitation within the Empire simce the Second Era.
Flying over the wall I moved past and hide from the Thalmor soilders.
They can still detect me through other senses, just not through sight or my footsteps.
I looked around and found the highlighted figure of the Thalmor Captain in the light blue aura the crystal dart created.
He had long since removed it but the crystal dart had already placed a tracking virus of sorts within his body.
I made my way to the building he was in and hid in a building opposite his and stood at a widow where I can directly see him.
A few guards and a mage was stationed there.
Seems like capturing and extracting him is a no-go, I would be discovered.
I'm not strong enough to use [Telekinesis] on a Humanoid body, let alone a lifting a sword.
Using a spell to enhance my hearing and sight I eavesdroped on the conversation.
"Have you found the Falmer boy yet?" Said my target, the captain.
"No, he froze all our troops and fled, most of our men were killed while the Khajiit weren't harmed much."
The captain slammed his fist against the desk as he stood up in a fit of evident rage.
"FOOL! If he finds the Orphan child in the Prophecy he'll conqour Elsweyr and have it recide from the Aldermeri Dominion and we will have lost the Khajiit as our allies!"
"I apologise Commander. We have been making an effort to locate the Orphan but a lack of details on their appearance in the Prophecy has made it difficult. We believe they may be in the Pellitine region in the city of Senchal by the coast."
The Commander seemed to calm down and sat back in his seat after hearing his subordinate's response.
"Good, come with me, we'll go there immediately. If we can't find the Falmer we will find the Orphan he will be going after and lay a trap for him."
After he said that, he left with his subordinate and met up with a group of guards outside.
Once they were gone I infiltrated the room and searched everywhere for any clues and notes.
The Thalmor had a superiority complex so they would never think that someone could steal from them let alone break in and past their defenses, prideful idiots.
After searching the entire room I had found dome notes regarding the Snow Prince Prophecy.
It says in one part that the Snow Prince (me) would return and usurp Elsweyr's rulers with the help of a Orphan Khajiit child.
I found this funny because they had misunderstood the Prophecy.
Elsweyr's true rulers were the Thalmor & the Aldermeri Dominion.
The Prophecy states that a Falmer will be in Elsweyr's capital and recruit a Orphan Khajiit child who would then "overthrow the rulers" of Elswyr's entire Khajiit race and become its ruler
The Prophecy is misinterpreted because the rulers of the Khajiit are the ones that control the Moons and the Thalmor had done as such for the Void Night's plot, thus they are the ones that will be overthrown.
This is great, the morons don't suspect a thing and would tell the Clan Mothers of Anequina and Pellitine that reside on the Council this lie, which I will reveal the truth and pull a reverse card on the Thalmor.
...
Returning to my residence before enacting my plan I placed all the stolen notes and documents on the floor and began going over them in depth.
After a few hours midnight came, both Moons were full in the Night Sky at 12:00 PM.
How do I know the time, I made a ticking watch that only required the occasional turn of a dial to keep the watch working.
At 12:00 PM something happened.
I was startled when a bright white and gold light appeared out of nowhere.
I rolled to the side and got my stance ready, observing the elcemtet of the room where the light radiated from.
...
...
...
"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
I had a momentary heart attack at what I saw!
The unimportant thing was that there was a floating book of sorts with a beautifully designed cover.
The second and the one that had me awestruck was...
...
...
...
"...A ELDER SCROLL?!?!?!"

(A/n I know you all don't like the filler lore but it is important to set a foundation for the long story ahead of us. It will end in few chapters as you can see, the story is beginning to take a more greatr focis on the plot and have more action.)
ps. I am not sure if it was Wulfharth or Peliel Whitedrake (or however you spell his name) that killed Khajiit which i mentioned in the chapter but I will check and re edit it. its been a whole since I learned Wulfharth or Whitedrake lore so I need revise on that.
