I’ve been trying out new stuff in my screenshots, for example introducing two characters into one picture like here and I am loving it. Thinking of doing a giant shot with all my characters in it (yes, all 13 of them).

In My Time of Need — Saadia’s Wild Ride Back to Hammerfell
Their day commenced in the wrong foot as their way to Whiterun was smeared by the rain. Ellerete had affection for the rain, but Jenassa did not wear the same kind of armor as Ellerete. That was unfortunate for her. Her gleaming armor shined with each step of Ellerete thanks to the rain, however, Jenassa's armor was covers of fine leather and the cloth that covered her head was wet as a whole until reaching to Whiterun with their feet wet. Not many enemies were present that day as some hid under the shadows until the rain would dissipate.
"Let us rest. My legs cannot take it anymore..."
Jenassa said only the truth and Ellerete agreed. They rested by the inn where Saadia hid, but she was nowhere to be seen, not even by the kitchen and asking Hulda, the inn owner, would be too suspicious.
A new day was ahead, and Ellerete started it by waiting outside the gates of Whiterun, with her components tightened around her form to be ready for whatever and her fitting and rusty helmet protecting the beauty of the lady. She waited hours. Kematu was then spotted by Ellerete once he had sneaked by the Whiterun stables. This brought the lady's attention and marched to his direction instantly. Not a single inch of hesitation or doubt was seen in the lady's pathing.
"Halt there. I see you're a man of fine clothes and carry a particular blade. An Alik'r warrior, correct? I suppose they sent you to me."
Kematu stood surprised but not for long. He offered a small smile to the fully armored knight.
"I'm no mere Alik'r warrior. I'm Kematu, the leader of the Alik'r search party."
Ellerete was seen startled after this and her facial expression was hidden with the thick iron of her helmet.
"Ah, Kematu... I suppose Saadia's presence must mean something important for you, yes?"
"Yes. Her trial for treason is no joke for us, the whole Hammerfell. In behalf of all Redguards that live in our great deserts, large grasslands and rocky mountains, we appreciate your help."
"Good."
The knight then directed herself back to the city, assuming that Kematu had it all in control. Once in the inn, as the bard sang songs in the background of this cozy home, she woke Jenassa up.
"Make sure that Hulda does not spot me and Saadia running, and guard the entrance of this place after."
Jenassa only murmured a few gibberish words before readying to do what the Whiterun knight had told her to do. Then, the Breton knocked on Saadia's bedroom door. A light step was then heard and then opened the door. Saadia remained silent and sat back down where she had her lonesome breakfast.
"Any news of the Alik'r?"
"I delayed the attack. Their men are still active and will probably head here."
Saadia's voice then shouted out of her lungs all of that hopelessness from not socializing and being together with her dear friend and mother, Hulda. Her eyes even showed a bit of that anger.
"What do you mean they're still active—?!"
"They're still alive. The delay is enough for you to escape from this land."
"And where do you expect me to go?!"
"You'll go on a horse to a wild ride away from here."
The eyes of Saadia turned from anger to sadness in a split second. She couldn't look at Ellerete's face anymore even if she lacked feelings for the disappointed Saadia.
"I trust you... I trust you on this one. We should get going then... I should tell good-bye to Hulda, too."
The knight halted her right when she stood up.
"No. Any witness seeing you running away from the city will be more information for the Alik'r."
The Redguard suspect then agreed, even if she hated to agree with the other's words. She didn't have time to pick up her items and books, she simply trotted her way out of the inn with Ellerete behind her. The knight had seen Hulda occupied, attending a pair of drunk men that had created a whole mess with their tankards and then she had seen the Dunmer companion saluting in the background. That was her plan and she did well. She gestured with a nod a good job before following Saadia and leading her to the stables of Whiterun.
To their surprise, the rain was active again. The path was wet and dangerous to run through, even guards warned them for their safety. Then, they were out of town. The two did not say a word to each other during this short path to the stables. Ellerete did not like her for her crimes, and no criminal should be allowed to speak to her. Though, the Redguard lady only wished to have a safe trip...
"We meet again, Iman."
The Redguard froze in her spot behind the biggest building in the stables. She had been betrayed by the smug knight.
"What have you done..."
"I haven't done anything. I'm only stopping a criminal from escaping again. Your excuses were inconsistent and you lied me through the entire thing."
Ellerete responded with sharp words that judged her as a criminal. Kematu then spoke with a cold-eyed expression. He knew that she deserved no mercy for her crimes and she needed to answer for these crimes.
"It's been a long time since we've met, Iman. Your ways to manipulate people are truly impressive, but unfortunately, your luck had to run out."
A magic glare concentrated in the man's hand, of an awful green color before it shined before the criminal's eyes. In a blink of an eye, the suspect in a long skirt was swiftly incapacitated. Her bones did not move a single inch and her face remained frozen in time. Ellerete was surprised with such use of magic and poked the lady's skin with her gloved finger. She was fully paralyzed, wordless. The rain did not affect her in any way.
"You have done a good job and your presence was worth of my time today. You're a honest person and for that, I reward you."
Kematu handed the lady five-hundred Septims. Her face lit up with happiness, unable to feel any pity for the criminal. It was all worth it for the armored one.
"What will happen to her?"
"My only job is to send her back to our walls. Whatever happens there is not my business. It was a pleasure to work with you."
Kematu then moved to wait for other men to pick the motionless Redguard. Ellerete stood with a smile on her face, splitting half of the reward for the smart Jenassa. She had faded into the mist to her town, enjoying of the rainy day with gold in her pocket.
