Thank you, Anne. Lydia was not in Breezehome but in Skyhaven Temple. She claimed she was now a Blade. Since it's been about a year since I played I had forgotten about this. I did have a problem with the consul command. When I had Lydia join me again she wouldn't fast travel with me any more. I used the consul only to find out where she was. So what I did was that I reloaded to before meeting Lydia again. Then I asked Lydia to join me and marched her out the front entrance. She is now fast travelling with me again. If I took her to the other exit (where the practise fighting was),she wouldn't follow. Strange, but I'm glad it's working now. Onward to starting the Dragonborn expansion.

Lydia was always my favorite until the DLC Dragonborn and then Serana stole my heart.

Rowan - Oh good! I'm so glad you found her. Hanging out with the Blades. As much as I love this game, it does act pretty strangely sometimes. Hope you and Lydia have some great times in Solstheim.

oldman - Yeah, I liked Serana a lot too. In fact, I'd never really liked followers much until her. The only thing that annoys me about her is that we get into a fight with multiple enemies she will resurrect any corpse around she can to help us fight. She's even resurrected rabbits, for heaven's sake. *lol*
