(Dream sequence done! Let me just say I think this is kind of meh this time xD Eilonwyn is still asleep at the end of this btw :P)

''The sea…I always feel free when I look at it. ''

Eilonwyn sighed as she stared out at the rolling waves. The sun was setting and it made the water shine. Truly it looked beautiful.

“Nish…I can’t wait to get rid of this Vampirism. It will be amazing to feel the sun on my face without being bothered by it.”

The Dunmer sat for what felt like ever as she watched the sunset. Eventually the moons rose behind her and the stars shone down, reflecting their light into the ocean.

Eilonwyn closed her eyes, as if she was waiting for something.

''I gave into my instincts too much today. I can’t even remember what I did! What if I hurt Nish? Or worse… ''

“Oh don’t worry!” A voice called out to her. “You’re master is fine!”

Eilonwyn smiled.

“Good. Nice to see even you have some restraint.”

“As if. I was only having fun with him. Your boyfriend is a crafty one. I’ll give him that. A coward. But crafty.”

Eilonwyn stood up from the sand, letting the grains fall back into their home. She turned and opened her eyes. Staring at herself.

Eilo smiled as well. Hers was more sinister, almost, hungry looking. She radiated intimidation as she was framed by the moon, it looked impressive.

“I am you.” Eilo hissed. “Why can’t you just accept that, and let me have my fun?”

Eilonwyn shrugged. “That isn’t true!” She called up to the dunes. “I hate killing! I only do it because I have to…”

Eilo sighed as she looked down upon this pathetic Dunmer. “Hardly. You love it. I’m proof of that!”

“Yeah that would be true but…” Eilonwyn drew her sword. “You are not me!”

<p class="MsoNormal">This intimidation attempt failed.

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilo laughed her empty laugh as she seemed to be filled with power, she teleported to Eilonwyn and pushed herself close to her face, hand on her own version of Ifrit.

<p class="MsoNormal">“I am a shadow.” Eilo hissed again. “The true self.”

<p class="MsoNormal">“No!”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilonwyn jumped back and landed on the sand a fair distance away before she charged at Eilo and swung Ifrit at her.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Pitiful.” Eilo barely even flinched as she effortlessly blocked Eilonwyns swing with her own sword.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Though I am impressed at how well you’ve picked up the sword. Prefer killing up close and personal now do we?” Eilo punched Eilonwyn in the gut before continuing. “N-no way!” Eilonwyn groaned.

<p class="MsoNormal">“I only used that sword because it was the only way to free myself from Red Mountain!”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilo chuckled as she teleported behind Eilonwyn and slashed her back, causing a wound to appear. Both on her and on Eilo.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Shit…” Eilo thought to herself as Eilonwyn cried out in pain loud enough for the both of them. “Should have known.”

<p class="MsoNormal">Now aware that if she killed this side of herself, Eilo would die with her, the Vampire decide to break her spirit instead.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Ah yes Red Mountain..” Eilo smirked “You waited so long for your pathetic excuse of a Breton to rescue you and what happened? You were tortured.”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilonwyn lay there on the ground, unable to move as she lay there listening to the child of darkness’ rants.

<p class="MsoNormal">''So what if I was tortured! ''

<p class="MsoNormal">“He was fighting off his vampirism then. Which only happened because I tried to leave!”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilo Wel (Which is so less confusing than Eilo and Eilonwyn x3 And sounds pretty cool when you say it out loud!) scoffed. “Your love makes us weak. Makes us pathetic…” she murmured.

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilonwyn stood up and picked up her sword once more, aiming it at Eilo Wel.

<p class="MsoNormal">“It doesn’t make me pathetic. It drives me. Gives me a reason to live!”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilonwyn charged at Eilo Wel, still unaware of the wound on her opponents back. She slashed her sword at her arm. Eilo Wel managed to dodge, but the sword caught her, giving her a large cut.

<p class="MsoNormal">They both yelped in pain.

<p class="MsoNormal">“See!” Eilo Wel snapped. “I am you! Kill me, and you kill yourself! Accept it!”

<p class="MsoNormal">“Never! I want rid of you!” Eilonwyn yelled, charging again and striking Eilo Wel with the pommel of her sword this time. They both felt the force of it, knocking eachother back.

<p class="MsoNormal">“I want a normal life. Free of this shit! I want to feel the sun on my face and not be bothered by it! I want to be free of you!”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilo Wel chuckled, she was enjoying this too much, despite the strong fight Eilonwyn was putting up.

<p class="MsoNormal">   “Idiot. You’ll never be free of me. This…gift Dunlammus gave you, allowed me to be stronger than ever before and take my own form! Slowly I will change you. Mould you into the perfect killer you were meant to be. I think I’ll start by torturing the Breton. I can’t wait to see the look on his face.”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilonwyn looked away from herself, determined to fight this thing off more than ever.

<p class="MsoNormal">“I would never allow you to do that!” She screamed into the air.

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilo Wel merely shrugged. “Weren’t you listening? I am you. This part of us is always here! The gift we were given lets us be even more dangerous. Even if you cure yourself of it, we’ll always be a killer, always be here. Accept it and I’ll leave!”

<p class="MsoNormal">''This can’t be me…I’m not this brutal! I was never like this! ''

<p class="MsoNormal">Slowly Eilonwyn saw the world change, they were no longer on the beach but instead in Raven Rock. She watched as she shot an Orc in the neck. Witnessed herself laughing as he pulled the arrow out and he fell at her feet, raining blood onto her.

<p class="MsoNormal">“This is why you don’t piss me off…” She heard herself mutter as she walked over to a different, fatter Orc and cruelly stabbed him over and over in the leg with an arrow.

<p class="MsoNormal">“You see now don’t you?” Eilo Wel hissed happily. “Even before the vampirism, I was always there. Even back at the start.”

<p class="MsoNormal">The dream changed again, she saw Nish being assaulted by the guards as bandits attacked Whiterun when she snuck over and slashed their throats silently, not even caring.

<p class="MsoNormal">“N-no…”

<p class="MsoNormal">“Yes!” Eilo Wel laughed. “You were always a killer Eilonwyn. I’ll always be here no matter what road you travel.”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilonwyn sighed, she was slowly accepting the fact that she really was just a killer. She’s slaughtered so many people just to protect her love and her friends. “Y-you’re right,” She said sadly. “You are me, just as much as I am you. I’m a killer and I’ll keep on killing until him and I can live in peace.”

<p class="MsoNormal">Eilo Wel grinned. “Exactly! You finally realise what you are. I’ll be here if you need me. I’ll try not to rough up your scrawny boyfriend too much next time you call!”

<p class="MsoNormal">With another laugh Eilo Wel vanished and Eilonwyn was left alone, back at the beach staring out to sea once more, as the sun began to rise behind her.

<p class="MsoNormal">In the real world, Eilonwyns pained face changed into one of acceptance as she peacefully slept for the moment.
