Raphaela
About this image
"Each event is preceded by Prophecy. But without the hero, there is no Event."
-Zurin Arctus, the Underking
Raphaela d'Aumont's part in this prophecy had now come to an end - at least for the time being. The Oblivion Crisis had been averted, the Third Era was over, and the dawn of a new age was on the horizon.
Following in the footsteps of so many heroes before her, in time her name would be forgotten, and yet the effects of her actions would go down in history amongst other stories and legends like those of the Nerevarine, the Agent and the Eternal Champion.
In the years following her friend's disappearance, Vilja would witness the collapse of the Empire, the destruction of Vvardenfell and the birth of the Aldmeri union, often feeling lost and wondering if everything the two of them had fought for had been in vain. Yet, wherever she went and no matter the dangers she faced, she would never come to harm, and soon rumors started circulating that she was blessed by the Divines themselves. Vilja herself would of course laugh at such talk.
The Amulet of Kings would often change hands after Vilja's time, however - the beautiful piece of jewellery would soon gain the reputation of being cursed, as it seemed to drive anyone wearing it mad, and eventually adventurers would stop seeking it out.
Daedra worshippers and conjurers would at times report that Lord Sheogorath appeared to them in the form of a young woman with blonde hair and grey eyes, for what reason they would never know - after all, the whims of the Madgod are many.
At times he or rather she, would even perform tasks and undertake missions from those she favored, the contracts allowing her to stay in Nirn for extended periods.
But those are stories for another time.

Oh and the Underking quote... ever since I first launched Morrowind it is one of my favourite sayings.
Endorsed
I love the references to other TES games and the lore in general.
Could it be that 200 years from now, Raphaela would set foot in the province of Skyrim?
