I should have posted this earlier but unfortunately I didn't.
In mid-October I and my wife decided to get a divorce and thus end our six-year relationship. I'm the one who initiated the break-up, but I don't think she was very happy with the state we were in either. We fought and argued a bit after that and it ended with her signing up for a new apartment. We were going to continue sharing the joint apartment until new years, with me living in the spare room and she and our daughter in the remaining apartment, but after three weeks the situation got impossible for her and she moved in with her parents until she gets the new apartment.
I'm now in the interesting position of needing to redefine my commitment to Silgrad Tower, because my commitment has always been closely linked to her. In a bad way, because for a very long time I've used ST as a means of escaping my home life and to block her out of my mind. When we broke up I didn't have that need any longer and that's why I haven't been around much lately. I've instead focused on school and taken a few steps towards dating again.
I did have a strong interest in modding and in Elder Scrolls before I met her, and I don't for a second think that my divorce will spell the end of my commitment to the team. But it will change, and it will likely take some time before I can be as active as I once was. But it's by no means the end of it.
