trying Skyrim again

orangerfulLydia and I are so done. Stupid bitca got herself killed yet again, this time in the middle of an epic dragon fight. I've had enough. I'm not reloading. She's dead, that's the story in this universe. She won't have to carry anyone's burdens EVER AGAIN!
I also found a bug that lets me fast travel even if I'm overencumbered -- just hop on your horse! So I looted Lydia's body, left her naked corpse next to a dragon skeleton, and fast traveled back to Whiterun to unload all her loot.
Guess I better get myself anotherpack horse companion. I don't know if I want a Companion or just a merc. I might go hire someone at a tavern, see how that goes. If I even need help. Might be easier without her setting off traps and causing aggro every time I see a camp.
Oh and to top it off, right before the dragon fight, we passed some Stormcloak guards on their way somewhere. Right after that, we found this place full of "afflicted" soldiers, who attacked us (they were spewing green stuff on us, clearly evil). I killed them and sometime during the battle, Lydia started killing the stormcloack soldiers too! She murdered them all though so no witnesses = no bounty. But even if they did catch me, I'll just blame it on her.
It's how she would have wanted it.

Date: 2012-06-17 04:07 am (UTC)I had a throw down with the lady in the back of the Bannered Mare and I kicked her ass so she said she would follow me. Her tone is MUCH less annoying than Lydia, she respects me and she's hardcore. And she's helpful to have around since I'm all squishy in my light armor.
I'm stuck with the stupid mace though because I started that quest in Markarth where the demon wants you to bludgeon some guy to death and I was like "um...do not want to do that" so I ran away but now I have this stupid 10 weight quest item I can't get rid of :-\
