So Kissie’s been talking to Sedave some more, and he told her about this thing called a portfolio, and she asked me if I wouldn’t mind helping her get set up with just a few pictures she could show around, maybe some introductions…

Sure, kids, why not.

I can make some calls.

… I did tell her about that orc, um.. what is his name…you know, the one in the doublet…What? that’s why I put all that stuff in my phone, it’s so I don’t HAVE to remember it.

The Orc might be able to set her up with some people– maybe even an audience of people who especially like orcs. I’ve been to that website. I know they’re out there.

What?

Yes, yes, Kissie– I saw those pictures of you that the other guy did, over on that site that is MUUUUCH better than yours. His shots of you are magnificent! But, I’m sure he’s got professional-quality equipment, and more contacts in the fashion industry, and more patience, and a better cameraperson, and a better budget and …  a lack of Marcus– we have a special insurance rider now just to take care of all of the problems Marcus causes–

But, we can get you something knocked together real quick, kiddo. It’ll be done today.

And we have better beer.

Just putting that out there.

Kissie, of course is KISSIMAX courtesy of Marmotte.

Jewelry is Immersive Jewelry.

ENB is… um. I don’t actually remember. I believe it to be a tweaked Snapdragon Prime/Snapdragon profile, but it could be Caffeine.

So Kissie got tired of living at the stronghold and set out on her own.

This is the house she built in the Rift. Since a certain Nord lives not too far away, I assume he helped out.

I am a really big fan of Jasperthegnome’s houses and they’re part of what inspired me to come up with Alfgar.

Well, actually it’s Ghissog gra-Ugor but, I ask you– Who wants to be saddled with that?

Kissie is a friend of Marcus’.

When we started asking questions, trying to see if Sedave had a c.v. or even, well, a portfolio, whatever Sedave told us was completely incomprehensible.

So Marcus told us about Kissie.

Kissie’s from some horrid place out in the Rift, where the Orcs are whiney milkdrink— what?

Marcus says, it does not matter what Alfgar says, that word is not okay. Do not use that word. Marcus is refusing to explain. So it must be pretty bad. What about snowba— ooh. Is THAT what that means? Yikes.

Anyhow.

Kissie.. excuse me, that is just a pet name, Marcus says– Ghissi started out life as the daughter of an Orc ranger.

Oh.

See there, Marcus. Kissie says that name’s just fine.

She had an ordinary life, working around the forge, being a dutiful and helpful orc maid–  alright.

That might be kind of a stretch.

She wanted more out of life– so after a lot of argument and turmoil, she left.

Went to the Legion for a little while, but it wasn’t for her. Not exactly the life of glamour. Notwithstanding the armor, of course.

So Kissie left. It turns out that the Imperial Legion has no interest of chasing its runaways through the wilds of Skyrim.

Kissie knew how to fend for herself in the wild, and she built her own cozy little home in a tree in Falkreath.

I decided not to investigate the thorny question of how she got to know Marcus, but she did, and when we were talking about this whole business of personal transformations et cetera, Marcus suggested that maybe she’d be willing to volunteer.

So we packed up Sedave and a lot of equipment and went to go find her. In case you are wondering, Sedave does not travel light. Bring at least one extra mule.

Sedave told Kissie she had a lot of potential:

She seemed dubious.

She wasn’t convinced, until–

Sedave smiles. He said it wouldn’t take too much magic.

Sedave was right. The camera’s gonna love her.

He says he’s got some more ideas. We’ll be back.
