The Dragoon In Skyrim

Chapter 289 - Saying Goodbye to Everyone

The siblings took their time talking to their mother who was happy to see them alive after hearing that Earth had fallen to the Reapers having no real chance to win against them.

Jane tried to convince her children to let go of the Alliance since she wasn't fond of the Alliance after it abandoned her to become a slave of the Batarians.

Titania and Tristan couldn't just let go of it as their mother was worried about them since she knows the Nords and they don't show mercy when they are fighting in a war.

She also knew that the Empire will be conquering the remaining Galaxy after they are done with the Reapers since the High King already told the Legions and Militia in his speech to motivate the troops.

The High King wouldn't join since he will be in charge of the Militia to make sure that Skyrim will be safe until the Legions return.

In the meantime on the mountain range near Bruma, Vincent was there meeting with the older Dragons who served him before the Dragons of Thedas joined him and Gama the current Dragonking.

{It will be the last war we will be waging together. I want the enemy to know what happens if you infuriate a Dragon who has lost his patience. I want our people to remember why our flag portrays two Dragons on it. I want to see our enemy shake in fear when it sees our army standing across them as we rip their skin from their bones,} says Vincent to the Dragons reunited on the same place in which he once made them submit to him.

{So you are going to join our father soon,} says Paarthurnax as Vincent nods.

{It seems so, I will be joining him soon to create my own plane of existence shaped after the being I will become once I ascend to his side,} says Vincent as he looked at every one of them.

{I will be awaiting you to arrive at my or our father's side. Or I will be visiting you without you even knowing it,} says Vincent happy and sad at the same time as he says, {It was an honor to have you all as my loyal subject and I hope that you will continue to serve my line with the same loyalty that you have shown to me.}

{We will watch over your achievement and make sure that nobody tarnishes your legacy,} says Odahviing as Vincent looks at the one last time before opening a rift to get back to the Imperial City.

He was in the garden walking through it when he says, "Vigilance."

Vigilance appears and floats around Vincent before asking, "What do you want?"

"Once I ascend you will need to find a new Guardian. I want you to choose one of my descendants that is selfless and doesn't want to rule. Someone that can be a guiding light in difficult times," says Vincent as Vigilance looked at him worried.

"So you really were saying the truth when you said goodbye to them," says Vigilance sad thinking that he would be beside Vincent forever.

"I leave my legacy into your hands as well as in everyone else that has accompanied me since I began to walk on the Path of an Emperor," says Vincent as he could see Vigilance floating around restless.

"What about Ser Jorey?" asks Vigilance as Vincent sighs before looking at the sky.

"I don't know if Ser Jorey will be able to follow me since he is a Warrior of Light but if he can't follow me I want him to be partner up with you on the search of the Guardian. He might become the next Warrior of Light," says Vincent thinking that the next person might be able to follow in his footsteps as the Warrior of Light.

"Ser Jorey will be his teacher since I won't be able to do it from where I will be stuck," says Vincent as he looked at his partner before he closes his eyes and says, "Vlad."

"My Lord," says Vlad kneeling in front of him as Vincent opened his eyes.

"I release you of your oath as my shadow. I want you to join Vigilance and find the Guardian. I want you to swear loyalty to him and become his guardian since he will most likely be young and he will need your protection," says Vincent to Vlad as he puts his hand on Vlad's shoulder.

"I will be awaiting you when your time comes, my loyal friend," says Vincent as Vlad looks up wanting to cry for his Lord.

"I know, I will be joining you once my duty to the Empire has been fulfilled," says Vlad containing his emotions.

"I thank you, my friend," says Vincent as he leaves Vlad behind.

Vincent returns to the Palace when he finds his wives there except for Ellana and Liara as he pets Liv before using his finger to pet Ser Jorey for a while.

They stayed together since those were the last days Vincent was living as a mortal. The only wife he felt pity for was Serana since she could never die from a natural death.

He was keeping her the nearest to him which everyone seemed to understand when Liara arrived after taking the crew of the Normandy to a place they could rest.

Three more days passed before the next Fleet arrived in Imperial Space this time they contained Turians and Salarians which could escape the devastation of Palaven and Sur'Kesh.

Garrus was one of the Turians with his sister that saved themselves. They were living in Kvatch with Tali and Legion at the moment as the Empire was making the last preparations after hearing that Palaven and Sur'Kesh had fallen.

Tuchanka was surrendered without a fight and Earth only had some people fighting against the Reapers whose numbers were dwindling with every minute. They have heard that Thessia was still fighting against the Reapers but they were losing as the ships on the way to Nirn would soon confirm.

Many races traveled to the Empire trying to find shelter there and they were welcomed what they didn't know was that the Empire was already stretching its hands towards the Galaxy.

The defensive line was holding the Reapers back at the moment since they only attacked in small numbers at the moment when Vincent called the defensive line back to tighten the defense more since soon more Reapers will be attacking in a bigger number than before.

Vincent was overwatching the construction of the last Tali which would be the fourth ship of this series. It was special since it was created to hold Dragons inside compared to the other three ships.

"Are you sure that this ship doesn't need some weapons?" asks Tali as she was overwatching everything.

"I am sure, it should be able to carry and release the Dragoons and Dragons to fight the Reapers in space not to fight the Reapers directly," says Vincent as he looked at it.

"So I heard that soon everything will be over from Mannimarco," says Tali a bit sad as Vincent nods.

"Yes, this is my last war and I will most likely only fight in one battle and that will be the one that will decide it all," says Vincent seriously as he looked at Tali and he asks, "How are Garrus and Solana doing?"

"Garrus is ready to join the Legions to fight against the Reapers again. Solana is worried about her brother not returning," says Tali worried as Vincent smiled at her.

"And you are worried as well," says Vincent knowing what Tali was feeling.

"Why don't you take a little break from making those ships after this one and join the Normandy for one last ride with Garrus," says Vincent suggesting to Tali.

"You know that I can't do that," says Tali as Vincent smiles at her.

"You can if I say so, Tali'Zorah vas Normandy," says Vincent surprising Tali.

"Wait, you knew about our tradition?" asks Tali as Vincent nods.

"I wouldn't have been a Good Emperor if I don't know some of the traditions of my people," says Vincent as he gave her a hug before saying, "Go and chase him. If we aren't successful I wouldn't want you to be sad mourning the death of the only person you love."

"Thank you, Vincent," says Tali returning the hug as Vincent smiles at her again.

"Don't thank me yet. Thank me once we have dealt with the Reapers," says Vincent in a warm tone as he pets her head while saying, "You remind me a lot of one of my daughters. She always needed a push when it came to following her passion."

Vincent let go of her and says, "Follow your heart and never let someone else tell you that you aren't worthy of what you are trying to achieve. Show them that you were right and the whole world will bow before you as they did with me."

"I will keep those words in mind," says Tali as Vincent kisses her forehead before leaving her side.

He walks for a bit trying to make peace with everyone he knows that is still alive like his brothers-in-law and friends, his children, and last but not least his wives.

He wanted to have a clear consciousness before facing his last battle. The Reapers advanced more aggressively than before but thank to Vincent's decision of tightening the defensive line they didn't break through the line.

But everything had its price the Empire lost men in the fight as well. Vincent was on board of the Fourth Tali with roughly a thousand Dragons and five thousand Dragoons not including the crew that made this ship fly.

"The last battle.. Let us show the people, not from the Empire, how we fight," says Vincent seeing the Reaper Army before him fighting against the defensive line as one of the Talis self-detonated destroying three Reapers that were overwhelming it.
