We crawled through numerous Draugr infestations, and somehow I even managed to convince her AI to package that perhaps stepping on every single pressure we cross is perhaps both a bad and painful idea.

I turn around to kiss my loving wife when I discover her life forfeit for my thirst for power...That's right, she'd been turned into a crispy, crunchy pile of loving ash....
