I hesitated to send this because it feels wrong to criticize fanfiction to the writer directly, but it looked like on your blog you said you appreciate feedback. Leara comes across as far too tolerant of abuse given her background. She's an altmer Blade in her 60's, but she says nothing to Delphine's passive aggression and only occasionally sasses Bishop, not even addressing the incident where he puts his hands on her throat.
You're fine! I appreciate feedback, and you raise some good points! Criticism like this helps in thinking through the why's and how's of the characters and plot. Now if you'd bounced into my ask box to landblast me or the story, I'd just yeet the ask into the void. Unless you were landblasting Bishop. Then I'd agree with you.
Leara's tolerance for abuse is something I'm trying to address in Part II. She has an unhealthy threshold born from what she considers a "means to an end" kind of attitude. Her "willingness" to tolerate it stems from her tenure in the Dominion.
I think we all know that the Aldmeri Dominion conditions its agents. In Esbern's dossier, it's noted that Elenwen's predecessor was recalled to Alinor for "punishment and reeducation". As an agent within the Dominion, Leara would have been exposed to and likely gone through the grooming and supremacy doctrine emphasized by the Thalmor. This would have occured in an early stage of her life, between the ages of 29-38. By the time she escapes, it's a miracle she's retained her own mind and her loyalty to the Blades. I cannot stress enough how dangerous this espionage mission was, and how it failed in it's primary objective (to uncover and relay the Dominion's plans).
(N.B: if you've seen #oc: aurora orianus on my blog, then you know I have another Dragonborn. The universe where she exists is based on a continuity where Leara does give into the Dominion, becoming an indoctrinated Thalmor agent. "Vilya" is in charge of the Thalmor Headquarters (which I think is a sort of judicial consulate) in Solitude.)
Why doesn't she react verbally to Delphine? Leara escaped the Dominion before the signing of the White Gold Concordat and "disbandment" (massacre) of the Blades. Instead of returning to Cloud Ruler Temple, she ran away. The way Leara sees it, Delphine kept up the fight while she abandoned her order to hide in High Rock. She feels ashamed, like she's inadequate. This will come to a head when Delphine demands for the slaying of Paarthurnax. Leara will stand up and challenge her leadership then.
I'm looking for the trigger point, the part where Leara snaps from the Dominion's abuse conditioning, and retaliates against Bishop. The waking of the dragon, if you will. When she accepts being Dragonborn, she rejects being used. We haven't reached that point yet.
#i hope this answers your question#I'm not saying Leara's right for thinking this way or anything#but she was handled and groomed in the dominion and it's easy to fall back into a handler's grasp and be their victim#basically leara has a long history of being victimized and abused from before bishop and her response is to run away#if she can't she tolerates it and convinces herself it serves a purpose it's a means to an end#that was how she handled her mission within the dominion#when she escaped it was cos she finally snapped saved someone from the dominion then ran away cos she believed she failed her main mission#the difference now is she needs to see she doesn't fail if she breaks the cycle and falls short of her goals#actually she'll succeeed by breaking the cycle maybe not in the way she intended but she will succeed#is this too convoluted? I didn't mean to delve this deep into Leara's traumatic past but here we are#oc: leara roseblade#i didn't know you were keeping count#aldmeri dominion#the elder scrolls#tes#mod post#delphine#playing spy games#azura's ask box

((You do raise a very good point! Dragons and magic and this entire thing is sorta over the top. Can I break it down more explicitly and see if it still holds up?))
I’m talking about Debitum Naturae, the fantasy series I’ve been slowly working on since I was 12. And where D originates. Obviously the dragons thing doesn’t work on tumblr, and Witches was a rather confusing concept (a species, not magic witches), so D’s changed a lot over here.
The entire story revolves around the fact that the protagonist from universe A hit this big reset button that created universe B. They do mirror each other a lot. Both of them are fractured realities and depend on some fairly stagnant magical race to balance out more volatile magical users. Both have a finite amount of magical resources. Both physical manifestations of magic are muted rainbows inspired by petrified wood.
Universe A was artificially separated thousands and hundreds of years ago, with incredibly dense, solid magical barriers that require a very strong magical spell to walk through without either cracking the “wall” or cracking your skull. It’s said by most that the walls were put into place primarily to protect humans and “good” creatures - humans were easy prey for more advanced magical races and creatures that need to hunt sentient life until they used their ultimate weapon adaptability and turned the tables on the already declining elder races. There’s also a rumor that some of said elder races raised the walls selfishly, to maintain control of large swathes of the universe and its individual realities via their large council and mostly symbolic ruler figure.
At any rate, all of that gets reset, and universe B is created, with a few big differences. Dragons don’t exist, and if knowledge of the universe before was present, legend would say it was out of punishment for hitting that reset button. So the Fae Courts becomes the stabilizing force for magic, even though magic no longer primarily stems from a race of creatures but from this odd little place called Twilight that exists outside of all known realities and time. Oh, and the universe is still splintered, but this time it’s more akin to a multiverse than a single universe that’s been artificially split. And it’s easier to travel. Ghosts and certain hybrids like Bound can use doors as access points, but most find gates to be reliable. Even magic is different, influenced by the massive walls that existed previously.
And all the while Twilight exists, a font of magical plasm, outside of all realities but created when universe B was made. Oh, and it’s sentient. Yeah, that’s a thing that’s true even in tumblr.
Fae Courts get annihilated by one of their own when Copper, rejected from the Courts reject her and then so do the rest of her reality at large. She does get punished, turned into the predecessor of the Guardians and Twilight’s first mouthpiece, And the main creature to groom D towards his own role as Twilight manifest.
Anyway, the Courts are nearly entirely killed off, and magic is like energy and souls and that sort of thing all mixed together. It’s not created or destroyed. The Fae were sort of sinks for a lot of “hot” energy, to keep the universe at large stable. And now not only is there not enough of them, but their own plasm has just joined the pool. The universe and Twilight can’t handle it. Magic starts bursting where it doesn’t belong as things begin to atrophy. If things don’t get fixed, Twilight will get pulled into all of realities all at once, and...well. The Old Laws and their Guardians, the ghosts, dominions of the death gods, the rainbow rivers that drive you mad if you fall in, time collapsing on itself...you can see why that would be considered world-ending.
So the reason for the universe hopping is pretty straightforward. Gotta bring dragons back to stop this rapid decay and keep magic in balance. How do they know about the dragons? Dragon dreams. They don’t actually exist in universe B, but their mythology does. People connected to Twilight have been dreaming of dragons and the first universe, creating the myths we’re familiar with today. Some people get bigger pieces than others. D doesn’t get a whole lot, mostly dreams of golden dragons when he’s not plagued with nightmares. But he has books that say more, that speak of that myth I mentioned before, where dragons are punished for resetting the universe.
I’m just plagued by self-doubt. Are these dreams of knowledge enough to justify Goose slipping through and creating a pathway large enough to pull a clutch of eggs back? Originally it was people, and I’ve nixed that idea hardcore recently, deciding that it would be more interesting to watch the council of Twilight attempt to raise dragons. Twilight exists outside universe B, but it was created with it. Do I leave it as that, or should I somehow tie it into universe A as well? How would I even do that? Magic is so different between the two, going from a primarily external manipulation to a primarily internal one. A pseudo-Twilight? That might work, as the dominions of death were already separated out from the other planes of reality in universe A...
Or I leave it and a cat ghost turned Twilight familiar slips through time, space, reality, and universe and saves the world. So long as the dragons survive and we don’t have a Robert Lutece situation on our hands.
