So yesterday was an odd day on Solstheim. At first when walking to Kolbjorn Barrow, I noticed something floating in mid air near the farm where you find the captain of the Redoran guard fighting Ash Spawn. As I got closer I noticed a couple of things: 1) that instead of it being just the shield it was the entire body of the dead guard. 2) it wasn't just floating in place but was continuing to float up. After awhile of watching it I decided to see if I could shoot it down; however, the force of my Ignite spell added to the speed of ascent and it quickly floated out of sight.

Later when exploring Solstheim/looking for Torkild, I ran into a Dragon near the Water Stone and killed it, however it glitched out and wouldn't give me a soul. I thought "meh, happens" and continued. By Dusk I had made my way to the North-East corner of Solstheim and thought I'd check the island up there with the burial mound to see if there was a dragon. There was and I killed it only to have Miraak take the soul. I checked my souls and I didn't have any, but since I had killed the dragon there before and taken it's soul after my previous issue with Miraak taking souls while I was at 0, I figure it glitched to wear I can't get a soul from the same location twice.

So I made my way to Saerings watch where I found an Elder Dragon fighting the Draugr(it had been a Serpentine dragon the first time) so I figure I might be able to get it's soul. However, after getting it to about half health the first time it flew away. So I went back to loot Saering's Watch and it was laying there as if it was dead(on it's side, sort of, with it's wings spread out), but when I approached it flew up(even had a health bar). So while fighting it, I got it down to about half and it land over by Hrothmund's Barrow, so I gave chase. When I caught up I continued fighting it and all seemed fine, until it's health dropped below 50%. Instead of landing it decided to fly around me continuously just out of reach of most quick spells(lightning) and was apparently invincible the few times I hit it with Fireball. So I tried to walk off and wait for it to land, but it followed me, continuing to fly circles around me.

After that, I felt I had been trolled enough by both the dragons and Miraak, so I decided to quit for the day.
