There's always a lighthouse

And just like that, you wake up in the basement of a lighthouse in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. There's a circle of 25 pods in the middle of the room, and two more in a room off to the side, and you can imagine who is in which.

An elevator to the side of the room leads up to the ground floor (or to the first sub-basement, if you want to check out the machine that brought you here), where you can for the first time in weeks look out a window and see the sky. Its a beautiful sunny day, with a strong breeze on the grassy ground of the island where the lighthouse stands. Have you ever been this happy to hear seagulls?

You're free. Whatever comes next, you're free and you won. Take some time to relish your victory, won't you? Reunite with friends you thought you had lost, go forth and just... well, enjoy this.

We can save that for when we get back home.

[...Oh. That leaves Lif's lips so easily that it makes him pause, but he finds himself at ease after saying it. Home. Jorrvaskr seems like it will be a lovely place, after all.]

I cannot wait to meet them. If they're even half as good as you are in a battle, then I'm certain that it will prove exhilarating when we spar.

But more than anything, I am looking forward to seeing the world that you call home. Do show me around some, won't you?

[It gets a short, sharp laugh out of her, but she's grinning by the time she gets ahold of herself.]

Skyrim is not an easy place to live, but that has made our people tough and our warriors tougher. You'll enjoy it. Jorrvaskr is in the city of Whiterun, which is a center of trade; it's a safe place, where the only real threat at the moment are the dragons. Perhaps we'll get an opportunity to fight one someday.

Dragons, hm...I'm not unfamiliar with fighting such things, though my experience is limited to dealing with the likes of Manaketes and Fafnirs. I would certainly not mind the chance to fight one of their like.

[...did he ever mention that, he probably didn't but hey, WE FIGHT DRAGONS A LOT I GUESS--]

Never the less, I am looking forward to it. I doubt I'll have any trouble adapting.

Hah, then you're already accustomed to fighting some difficult beasts. You won't have to worry; I can explain anything you may be curious about.

[...okay maybe not anything, it's not like Aela knows anything about magic or even half the lore, but that's fine. Lif doesn't have to worry about more technology bullshit, at least!!]
