Dragon Rising
So I started off by after getting ready sleeping in the bed at our farmhouse for faster leveling
and I made sure to actually collect some bolts for the crossbow this time guys
So after making sure I didn't make the same mistake as last time I set off to Dragonsreach making sure to sell excess gear on my way there. There I met up with Farengar talking to Delphine
Finishing Bleak Falls Barrow and starting Dragon rising. I then went and talked to the Jarl. Well I jumped around while the unskipable conversation with the Guard happened
When that ended I was finally allowed to progress and actually talk to the Jarl where we were made able to buy property in the city.
Although considering we can get a load of new player homes for free as this is Anniversary edition I don't know if we'll be buying it but I'll still put it to the vote.
So I set off the to Western watchtower
getting there well before Irileth and although I thought with Uthgerd and Serana we would probably be able to take Mirmulnir down on our own it would be better to wait so the conversation at the end doesn't potentially bug out (I mean this is a Bethesda game best not to chance it)
Unfortunatley I couldn't get any good shots during the fight itself as I was rather focused on the dragon. But I found the combination of weapons chosen rather good for a dragon fight as the crossbow allowed me to hit Mirmulnir as he flew and the ebony war axe allowed me to deal quick damage on the ground. So thank you guys 👍 And with Serana, Uthgerd, Irileth and the guards the dragon went down rather fast (a bit disappointingly so if I'm honest as I was looking forward to a longer battle but it is want it is)
I then absorbed the dragon soul
And had force, unrelenting force automatically unlocked by it I was the approached by on of the guards who initiated dialogue
I then completed the optional objective to shout
before setting off back to Whiterun where I was summoned by the Greybeards and I saw two Alik'r warriors talking to the guards at the gate.
I chose to initiate the dialogue with the warriors in order to get In my tome of need in the quest log
I then returned to Balgruuf and completed the quest
It was here that we were made Thane and Lydia is given as a potential follower

When polling please be aware bows and two handed weapons will be included in the right hand poll while crossbows, staffs and shields are in the left. Also I have decided to implement a rule where if an option is chosen twice in a row for the next two polls it will be left out of rotation. This is to help to encourage us to mix up what we do a bit more.
