Riding through the pine and Spruce trees of the snow-covered Forest heading higher and higher up the mountain where the air starts Getting Thinner I have to constantly have catastros slow down so my body can adjust to the climate

After three hours of climbing we reached the entrance to Champions rest which was a large Cave opening the Sun was also starting to go down so I hopped off of catastros and led him by his lead into the entrance upon entering I noticed wooden tables and other Furniture in here along with some pickaxes which must have belongs to the mining party filnjar told me about.

Looking on the table I noticed a journal I decided that I would read it later after I got some food in me I pulled out my fire starter as well as my Tanto after Gathering some dead Pine from outside after processing my Tinder and moving some rocks to make a small fire pit used my firestarter to light the tinder bundle

catastros laid down in the corner while razor padded over and laid by me I walked over with a big bowl that I found been poured some banana oat and Apple mix for my horse to get his energy back while I cooked mine and razors food

Two very rare steak that I got from Riften while we were there. I could have easily just handed one to razor but I wanted him to have a filling meal so I cooked it like mine as he always was a picky eater. After the steaks were properly cooked I cut Razors up into small bite-sized pieces and put them in on a plate and set it in front of him which he proceeded to eat.

I took mine off of the fire and put some firewood on it to make the fire warmer as I started to eat mine although eating alone just didn't feel the same. I had gotten so used to eating with everyone at the mansion after I ate I made sure the fire would stay roaring all night

Using a small stick I transferred some fire from the fire that I just made over to a small lantern that was on the table and I opened the journal and started to read.

Upon reading I learned that the Nordic ruin was broken into during the mining the best deposit of silver as I continue to read to myself aloud

" upon Discovery the miners say they witnessed a 'ghost' clad head-to-toe in armor while this alone was cause for concern what they said next was even more foreboding. the spirit wielded a massive blade which seemed to "whisper" to them in their minds this hints at the workings of a powerful Daedric artifact."

The Clash of thunder stirred me from my thoughts as the hair on my body started to raise as I felt like I was being watched by a dark presence. Shaking it off I continue to read to myself aloud to break the silence.

" the only Relic that matches this description is Umbra, once believed to be lost or, by some accounts destroyed. Umbra is a sentient weapon who corrupts its Bearer and compels them to kill so that the blade May Feast on The Souls of those it slays. It appears to have resurfaced here, although why I cannot say. If The Apparition that haunts this site truly is the Resurgence of Umbra then it has grown very powerful and Shors stone is in grave Danger."

I lowered my eyes at the book and put it in my bag for reference for later

" umbra.... so that's your name."

Taking a deep breath I took a big bowl that was on the table and walked down the narrow Corridor that would head deeper into the mine I found a small waterfall that came directly from a spring I didn't know if it was safe to drink or not so I got in my bag and pulled out a bandana as well as picking up some of the charcoal from the fire crushing it in the powder before reaching outside and grabbing some grass.

I found an upside-down plastic bottle which I cut the middle off dividing it into two pieces before putting the grass at the bottom where the bottle cap would be putting the crushed charcoal over top of that then putting the sand on the top and then putting the bowl underneath it are you the other half of the cup the collect water in before pouring it into my makeshift water filter

after filling the Bowl completely full I carefully carried it over to the fire and boiled it to get any bacteria out I mean after filtering it I could have drank it then and there due to my high immune system but I also had to make sure razor and catastros had water to. After boiling it and some of the water has evaporated I walked outside and grab a handful of snow putting in the water to cool it down after putting my finger in there determining if it was cool enough I took a couple of drinks before pouring it in the two bowls putting them in front of razor and catastros smiling as I started drinking the water.

deciding to get some rest i leaned against catastros and razor curled up at my side laying his head on my lap. i set my pack by me and laid my head back as i slowly drifted off to sleep.

{ meanwhile at the mansion * 3rd person pov*)

zero had been in the bathroom and shard was outside the door waiting to see if she needed anything.

Shard: hey hon are you ok?

Zero: y-yeah I'm fine.

shard: ok im gonna lay down, let me know if you need anything ok?

zero: ok hon.

shard layed on his bed and started the 1st friday the 13th while zero looked at the pregnancy test that read positive. she took a deep breath and hid the test in her shorts as she flushed the toilet and exited the bathroom. she then went downstairs to see the girls were having like a girls night. 

zero: hey girls can i talk to you about something?

Clockwork: sure zero what's up?

Zero: u-um...I'll show you.

Zero handed clockwork the pregnancy test and her one good eyewidened as lily snatches it from her hand before hopping for joy.

Lily:  ooh one of my children is gonna be a mommy I'm gonna be a grandma :3.

Zero: shh! Girls please keep this between us. i don't want to tell shard yet. 

hall: youll have to tell him sometime, but make it special. like cook a nice dinner for the 2 of you and eat on the roof.

sally: ooh, we could all sing bella notte.

cherry pau: Why are you recommending this? You have any experience with pregnancy and kids?

hall: Number one, I was fixed as soon as I was born and number two, I have 927 siblings. So, I've been around the block a few times.

the girls night went silent with blushes and ann giving hall a sly grin and started petting her chainsaw in a sultry manner.

Hall: n-now ann, easy with that chainsaw there. you don't want to damage this extremely rare 13th century absinthe all the way from ancient transylvania do you?.

Ann: nope, I'm gonna punish you ~

Jane: get a room you 2.

Lynx: hehe coming from the person who was screaming her head off all night before the gala~

Jane: how was I supposed to know that he'd go succubi!?

Hall: well, let's just say that you're in for a hell of a time when he comes home.

Nina: and, I'll make sure that you are silent this time~

Lynx: my dear female joker reject, that's what a gag is for~

Nina: yeah we need to get one for you to.

Lulu: ahem...could you please ease up the 18+ talk?, there's children present.

Lulu softly said well having her hands over both Sally's ears.

Sally: hey has anyone seen lazari?.

Sure enough lazari was nowhere to be found only for Hall the point on the other side of the couch which Sally looks and Lazari was there cleaning her P90 while listening to music on an MP3 player.

Sally: hey lazari, wanna have a tea party?

Lazari took out a earbud so she could hear what sally was saying.

Lazari: sure. I'll join you as soon as I finish cleaning my p90 ok?

Sally: ok!

And with that sally bolted up to her room to grab her tea set while Lulu got up to start making the tea.

Zero: thank you for the advice girls.
