gaming Need a little help from fellow Dragonborn

[ANGEL33 87]

I need some help in Skyrim. A while ago I accidently Fireballed and killed the Warmaiden. I was being attacked, she was behind me working, and I used Fireball on my attacker. But I forgot that Fireball's explosion is bigger than the Firebolt's. So both the attacker and Warmaiden were killed. Then her husband tries to attack me and I Fireball him. Then when everything calms down, I go to the Skyforge. Again, I'm attacked and again I Fireball the guy. Then I go up the stairs and what's-his-name Grey-mane isn't there and it's 9 AM. After going and killing enemies, I return to the Skyforge and Santa (easier than putting a fill in) Greymane, still isn't there. So I deem Whiterun boned as far as Blacksmiths go aside from myself of course. Now here's where I need a bit more help. I have the Ebony Blade and it's at 34 attack damage. Is there an alternate way of maxing the Ebony Blade's power without killing innocent people? And I was told that the voice of Mephala in the Ebony Blade once at max power, will command you to kill innocent people. Is that true?

No its not true mephala just congradulates you for killing innocent people and sadly there is no other way to get the ebony blade to full strength without killing a lot of innocents that you are friends with.
