A changeling's visit to Skyrim

by Erised the ink-moth
A changeling gets thrown into Tamriel's province of Skyrim, and meets the Dragonborn at the begining of her adventure to stop Alduin. What does fate hold in store for this unlikely side-kick to a prophesied hero of legend?

IMPORTANT EDIT - Nov/2/2015: This story is currently undergoing a complete re-write. I will be taking this current story down in order to post a brand new version on FiMFiction later this week. Until then, consider this fic officially cancelled.
====
Stross was just a normal changeling, until a teleportation spell overloaded and sent him all the way across the sea of infinite worlds to Nirn, specifically to Skyrim on the continent of Tamriel. But this is not necessarily a bad thing.
Now on a quest with the legendary Dovahkiin, he must question whether or not he even wants to return home at all, or live a life of adventure in this exciting and open new world.

…or you know, become a guard after taking an arrow to the knee.
