Aaaaaaaand we're back. Sorry I've been gone lately, but this year has been quite a doozy so far. I had surgery in January (which was expected), and then some complications in March (which were not expected) which resulted in me spending a week in the hospital. It's taken a little bit to get life back on track, but things should hopefully be back to normal now.

We pick up where we left off last time, which was just having exited Fellglow Keep as part of the Hitting the Books quest. We head back to Whiterun for a sorely needed sort n' sell that we just didn't have time to do in the last video. From there we head back up to the College for follow-up, which involves a lot of scripted scenes to move the plot along. We have our second encounter with the Psijic Order, who instruct us to seek out the Augur of Dunlain, who hopefully can tell us what to do next. Keep in mind that the guy we're talking to is literally able to *stop time* so we can have a private conversation, but yet can't tell us what to do about the Eye. The Order has known from the beginning that the Eye is going to be misused, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out Ancano is the most likely candidate. The whole College storyline could have been bypassed if they just told us to go put a dagger in Ancano's back in the beginning.

But instead it's everybody aboard for the plot railroad. Getting to the Augur will take exploring the Midden Dark. We did the regular Midden some time ago, but not this second section. But we'll save that for next time. In the meantime we finish up this video with a couple of side quests - Tolfdir the Absent-Minded and the first of Arniel's Endeavors.
