At sunrise, Lydia and I started from Windhelm, travelling to the College as fast as our horses could carry
us. And it appears we were just in time. Ancano had raised a ward around the
Hall of Elements, sealing himself in together with the Eye of Magnus. Working
with the Arch-Mage and Miss Mirabelle, we were able to blast the barrier with
enough power to bring it down, and as we entered we saw Ancano casting some
sort of spell against the Eye. Miss Mirabelle, Lydia and I stayed back (okay,
Lydia held me back), but the Arch-Mage stepped towards Ancano and the orb and…
Everything went white, and when I regained consciousness, Ancano had raised
another ward and the Arch-Mage was nowhere to be seen.

As Miss Mirabelle come to her senses, she
asked me to look for the Arch-Mage. He was not in the Hall of Elements, but as
I left the building I found him. There wasn’t anything I could do for him,
though, and it seemed that whatever the white flash that killed the Arch-Mage
was, it had done something in the town of Winterhold as well. Lydia and I,
together with Feralda and Arniel, two other mages at the College, ran there as
fast as we could to deal with the creatures that had appeared; magical
creatures, reminiscent of wisps, were attacking everything that moved. As if
that wasn’t enough, we had barely finished cleaning up the place before a
dragon attacked. Am I the reason of all the dragon attacks? Are they hunting
me?
I am off to Labyrinthian now. The Arch-Mage
had spoken with Miss Mirabella about the place just a few weeks ago, and had
given her an amulet that now lies in my money pouch. It’s late afternoon and
there is snow in the air, but I don’t dare wait until morning to start the
journey. This has suddenly become a bit bigger than a Nord sorceress trying to
grab some power.
