Blood And Ice Skyrim Novels & Stories

Exactly as seen earlier in the castle. The sword. “What does that one do?” I asked, pointing to it. “It drinks blood. For anyone it kills, their blood is stored in the blade. You would try to always have a clothing between you and the hilt” That did not sound more beneficial than fairy dust. “So how useful would it be to protect me?” With only a smile, “very” Time to close the deal. “I have one silver coin” playing with the coins against my fingers. “Make it three and we have a deal”

The blizzard was not a natural occurrence; it was a physical manifestation of the Blood-Moon King’s malice. It screamed through the jagged passes of the Silver Peaks, a wall of white ice and freezing wind that sought to strip the warmth from any living thing. Lyra stood at the prow of the lead transport, her eyes glowing with a sapphire fire that cut through the gloom. She was no longer a woman; she was a storm in human skin.

My head is spinning, the world tilting around me, but I say, “I'm not done.” Killian’s eyes flick to my shoulder, then meets mine. “How are you still standing?” It's then I remember I'm losing blood. The blood spilling from my shoulder makes my limbs heavy, and my vision flickers. I can feel the cold creeping in, and I stagger backwards. My back slams against the wall, and I slide down to the ground, my body too weak to hold me up. My consciousness slips in and out as I fight to stay awake. I look up at Killian. He's just standing there, watching me.

The sight of her blood, dark and bright, flowing across her skin, hits me like a direct blow to the chest. Breaking through the protective barrier formed by my soldiers, I rush toward her with a heavy heart and a mind in despair. The dry leaves crunch under my feet, and each step feels like a monumental effort. I kneel beside Aria, feeling the coldness of her skin under my hands as I press down on the wound, trying to stop the blood from continuing to spill. But it’s futile. The blood slips through my fingers, warm and viscous, as if her life is slipping through my hands.

Blade turns back to Arthur and asks, “Can we go inside?” Arthur’s eyes are now focused on me and he comments, “You’ve been drinking blood.” I flick my tongue out, wetting my dry lips, and I respond, “I have.” “Be careful. Too much will take away the human side.” He turns and opens the door as he walks into the house. Blade follows right behind him as he asks, “What does that mean?” I walk in behind Blade and close the door. Arthur takes a seat in the small living room where he has a wine glass that is half filled with blood. His eyes move between the two of us and he asks, “How much do I owe, Blade?”

Elara said, her violet eyes flashing with a cold, ancient anger. Toby moved instantly, pulling Maya into the centre of the room. “We need to go. Now!” “There is no ‘go,’ Soldier,” Elara said, her fingers moving frantically now. “The cable car has been cut. The only way out is through the ice.” The structure of The Ossuary began to groan, the mycelium walls vibrating with a new, violent frequency. The Board was using the same acoustic attack they had used at the Anchor, but amplified by the mountain’s echo.

“I disabled two last night. Maybe I’ll find more tonight.” The room seemed to hold its breath. The air thickened, stretched thin like glass about to crack. His expression didn’t change, but something dangerous coiled in his stillness. Then, slowly, he leaned forward, resting his elbows on the table. His voice was low, steady, the kind of quiet that demanded attention. “Every time you disable one, I’ll replace it. And every time you test me, Isabella…” His gaze pinned me in place, blue eyes sharp enough to cut through bone. “You’ll learn what happens to people who play games in my house.”

Pick one. Zevran reached first for the dagger lying neatly by the plinth—a blade of clear stone that drank light instead of reflecting it. He rolled his sleeve, found the small scar at his wrist where so many oaths had gone to hide, and cut. Silvered blood welled, struck the ice, ran the first channel. It hissed and froze in a line, a vein written into law.

She held her hand over the cold basin, letting three drops of her thick, silver-tinted blood fall onto the frozen stone. ​The glacier groaned. ​A sudden, high-pitched ringing sound filled the air as the three drops of blood hissed against the ice. Instead of freezing, the blood turned into liquid silver light, racing up the veins of the glacier like water down a parched root. The massive wall of blue ice did not shatter... instead it dissolved the solid frozen water misting outward in a warm, fragrant cloud of winter pine and ancient starlight. ​"The gate is open."
