#Viola Giordano's House

[oblivions-dawn]

𝕍𝕒𝕝𝕦𝕟𝕤𝕥𝕣𝕒𝕕

a Skyrim journey, 58/?

[vidra-comprehends]

Item: Half a dozen sheets of paper with the same provocative message and imagery, originally found plastered over the walls in the city of Windhelm. Khajiit caravaneers Ma'dran, Ma'jhad and Ra'zhinda have been thoroughly investigated, but no incriminating evidence has turned up so far. The crime might also be in response to the recent increase in firewood prices. One page was found in Viola Giordano's house, although she is not an immediate suspect, as she is known to collect anything and everything. Signs indicate that further copies may have been taken home by other residents.

Based on the legendary OK Wildlife Department tweet:

The Ri'saad/Ysolda pairing would have never occurred to me on my own, but I've come across the tag while signing up for Fiends and Fangs and decided I would give it a few writing attempts. While nobody requested it in the end, the two somehow managed to grow on me. Hence the quick painting.

ESSENTIAL CHARACTER

[beardycarrot]

Upon asking a shopkeeper in Windhelm whether any of his items are stolen, he conveniently realizes that something that was sold to him (a silver ring, I think?) had actually been stolen by Viola Giordano, the richest woman in the city, and asked me to break into her house and slip it into a dresser drawer so she’d think she had just lost it. Curious type that I am, once I was inside her house, I decided to snoop around. Not stealing anything, just... seeing how the richest woman in Windhelm lives, y’know?

Then, I experienced a burglar’s worst nightmare: the homeowner returning.

[leolovesthings]

I was doing this quest for the billionth time and found out something different all of a sudden!

After you gain entry to the house, you can take Viola Giordano to go investigating the house with you!

That’s so ridiculuos that I have never tried that. I usually did the investigation by myself and then talked to her with everything in hand.

(It doesn’t really change anything, obvs, but I’m excited)
