Elder Scrolls Mara Novels & Stories

In the center of them Mara stood, eyes like hot coal. At the edge of the hall, I saw something that hit me like a slug: Elen, grabbed by the hair, dragged out into the center of the courtyard with her pendant flashing like a small accusation. Mara’s hand was tight at the back of her neck, fingers like iron. “You would help the wolves?” Mara’s voice was a rasp for the crowd. “You betray your sisters? Then you die first, little traitor.”

Her laugh, "He'd kept records of my complicity from the first day. He built my cage while I was helping him build everyone else's." "And Mara?" I kept my voice level. It cost me. Elara's eyes came up to mine, and there was something in them I'd never seen there before. Grief. "Mara was in deeper than I ever was. They didn't use her signature, Laney. They used her gift. A destroyer wolf on a leash is the best enforcement tool in the world — she kept the handlers in line, kept the bought officials frightened, kept the merchandise—" she flinched at her own word— "compliant. And she was good at it, because Mara was good at everything, and I think for a while she even told herself the same lies I

A woman in charcoal-grey robes entered, her hands smelling of crushed herbs and mountain springs. She bowed low to Varick, a gesture of such profound respect it made my head spin before approaching me with a silver kit. "This is Elara," Varick said, his voice dropping into a protective, territorial growl. "Heal her as if she were the heartbeat of this pack. If she feels a single unnecessary pang of pain, you will answer to me." The healer, Sora, nodded quickly. As she began to peel back the bandages on my shoulder, I braced myself, shoulders hunching toward my ears.

Her name was also Mara. She was scared after the second petal rain. She did not want to remember the bleeding. Eli closed his eyes. “So it was never gone. It was just with you.” Yes. And now I cannot carry it all anymore. Eli ran down the hill. His heart was loud in his chest. He found Mara sitting under Em’s Tree. Her pups were with her. Ages 6 and 9. They were drawing circles in the dirt. “Mara,” Eli said. “Do you know the name Suri?”

Mara raised an eyebrow and looked out the window. "What do you want from me?" Mara was very fierce and she just wanted this Keren lady to go straight to the point. "I like your attitude and like you, I also love to hit the nail on the head. Here is the thing" Keren was beginning to make sense to Mara finally. "I'm listening" Mara finally looked at her. "I deal with other things, smuggling them in and out of the country and I would need your help to do that" Keren was blunt.

It began innocently. Mara made sure she crossed paths with Elira often—never calling her directly, never summoning her. Just small encounters in corridors, brief pauses in the courtyard, shared silences in the servants’ passageways. She watched how Elira lowered her head respectfully, how her steps slowed whenever Mara passed. One evening, Mara deliberately dropped a folded cloth she was carrying. Elira rushed forward immediately. “My lady, please—let me.” “Thank you,” Mara said softly, her voice gentle, tired. “You’re one of the Luna’s new maids, aren’t you?”

The air vibrated with the sound, the packhouse's distant hum seeming to amplify it, as if the very structure celebrated with them. Yet, amid the jubilation, a discordant note lingered. Mara, positioned at the glade's southern edge, crossed her arms over her chest, her moss-green cloak blending seamlessly with the shadows. Her green eyes, sharp as emerald daggers, flashed with doubt, reflecting the moonlight like polished stones. At twenty-one, Mara was a beta through and through—her lithe, wiry frame built for speed and agility, her blonde hair braided tightly back to reveal a face of striking angles: high cheekbones, a determined jaw, and that faint scar across her eyebrow, a reminder of a

The boys certainly do not have it any easier; the Eirdegon is a medium sized deer with crystal shiny antlers and bluish fur, from what I know it is incredibly fast and smart. “Should you accomplish that, you will be honored to once again enter the village as recognized children of Mother Jörð and your legacy will continue as progenitors of the new generation. Should you fail, you will be disgraced as failed beings, mere beasts, losing any ties with the elven race.” Wait, what was that about progenitors of the new generation, I never heard of it. Everything sounded bad already, but that last paragraph came straight out of a shady cult. “Worry not, I trust we have trained you accordingly and y
