The senior Scrolls I : Rise of the Sword-Runners

Arngeirr was crouching close to the timberland base as he skulked along the trail, stalking his quarry. His hands were marked-up, mud and moss clung to his Banded atomic number 26 armor, his long aureate blonde hair hung over his font, dampness with stew.

He sniffed the air and swivelled around on his feet to face north. He had her sent. Quickly but lightly, he sprinted through the forrest towards Riverwood, making small noise he jumped from a fallen log and climbed a marvelous oak tree until, halfway up, he rested against a ramification. Slowly he drew his fathers Ancient Nordic Bow and readied his blade arrow to strike.

A Stormcloak patrol passed beneath him.

'' tinker's damn you '' he cursed as they moved on and in he length he saw the large cervid he had been stalking prancing away towards the lake.

He slid down the tree after sheathing his weapon and walked towards Riverwood. As the morning wind blew through the trees Arngeirr ran his hand through his golden haircloth and approached Lake Llinalta. As he broke through the Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree logical argument he breathed deeply inhaling the smart air, it was so unlike here than it was in the cities, here you could ascertain peace.

As he looked around himself Arngeirr sat down and, bringing his nose close to the primer he began to sniff and heed for any wildlife that he might trace.

He soon caught the scent of a fox and followed it in the direction of Llinatas Deep, as he approach the money box he sighed, he hated swim, he was n't bad at swimming per say, just disliked getting wet, strange though as he did n't mind getting grime, sweaty or bloody.

He swam quickly across to the northern bank to avoid the thrashing Fish. Unlike others in Skyrim, the Pisces would bear been their last-place concern, as for some reason everyone thought that the lake was cursed, no one in the Sword-Runner family believed in curses, and they were ALL stubbornly brave beyond reckoning.

Arngeirr advanced slowly and quietly for two rationality, he did n't want to lose his prey, and just to his left on top of the drop down tower of Llinatas Deep were two brigand Marauders wielding Orcish Battleaxes. Also just behind them was an Apprentice magician.

As he passed silently by he was blasted forward into the Tree-line by a immense ball of double-dyed white brightness, dazed and confused Arngeirr could see the Necromancer shouting and barking society as three bandit Archers came up and chatoyant arrows at the sphere as the Necromancer shot powerhouse at it and the two bandits earlier charged at it wielding their axis in a blind wrath.

As Arngeirr pulled himself from his daze and daze he drew his Sky-forge Steel great-sword from his dorsum and charged at the bandits as the empyrean began to shrink inside taking the loose descriptor of a man.

Arngeirr charged as the first bandit, a young man Nord, turned and charged at Arngeirr clad in hide armor. He swung his axe at Arngeirr 's head, Arngeirr ducked, stabbed up into the Nords chest, then spun around drawing the steel from his thorax cutting him nearly in two.

Arngeirr stood up straight, his face stained with descent, holding his bloodied great-sword in his right hand, his breast heave as he huffed and puffed, watching as the Orc bandit clad in fur armor charged him in furor.

Mimicking the Orc Arngeirr charged and swing out his great-sword with all his might. Battle-axe and Great-sword clashed in a Spark of Orichulum on Steel.

They pressed each former with all their strength, staring into the orcs brutish face as it roared in anger and continued to crusade its blade downwards towards Arngeirrs chief. His posture was failing, the orc was winning with its immense born physical strength, but Arngeirr was exhilarated by it he loved fighting orcs as they were one of the few raceway who posed a real number threat to him and a real challenge.

As the axe drew near to his head Arngeirr slipped into an unbound rage. He roared out like a cage lion, the Norse conflict cry. He pushed up with all his might and sent the orc reeling back onto its arse, its vigor now spent as Arngeirr swung his blade down onto its chest, delivering the killing reverse, cleaving a gaping hole in the orcs chest.

Arngeirr spun to see a woodelf crouched on a piece of crumbling rock that once was a strut holding up the tower, weilding an ebony bow quick to raise her pointer at Arngeirr as a banded smoothing iron tog red-guard wielding threefold scimitars advanced on Arngeirr and a Leather clad Khajiit assassin flanked him on his rightfield as he faced the tower.

Reading himself for combat Arngeirr advanced on the Red-guard and swung his sword in a wide arc in battlefront of himself. The Red-guard jumped back at the initiatory swipe then as the second came he deflected with his scimitar sending Arngeirrs blade away from him and into the air. The Red-guard slashed at Arngeirrs thigh bringing him to his knees as an pointer sank into his shoulder. The Khajiit stabbed him in his rightfulness should also, completely crippling him as Arngeirr felt his aliveness ebbing from him.

Then he felt a swoosh of air as a greenish blur flew by him at the Red-guard was thrown back into the tower crumbling walls, an Orcish battle-ax embedded trench in his breast. Arngeirr watched as the woodelf lowered her bow and stared wide eyed at what she saw, fear engulfing her. Arngeirr simply looked forward at her the whole time as the thaumaturge ran forward and tried to raise the corpses to fight but, the khajiit was sent flying through the air crashing into him, its legs broken. Arngeirr felt a warm script on his arm pulling him up as the heat cattle ranch through his soundbox, a consoling gentle light engulfing his injury, healing them.

Then a tall man, of 6ft 5in, dressed in ebony armour, wielding two pitch black brand and a dandy blade, with farseeing swept back golden hair's-breadth and a hefty material body walked by towards the magician and Khajiit. He drove his sword into the neck opening of his opponents then turned to the woodelf.

'' Do you bow ? '' The man asked in a recondite, yet easygoing and comforting voice to which the elf just nodded repeatedly

She was curtly, 5ft 3in in stature with farseeing mordant hair tied back in a pony-tail. Her skin was tanned and her Y were a trench scintillation greens, she was tenuous of figure, clearly flexible and agile.

'' Then go inside, gather all that your brigand friends stole and bring it out here '' The man ordered as the elf disappeared into the deep-set keep

The man walked over to Arngeirr and helped him up

'' Are you alright ? '' The man asked, to which the man nodded in answer

'' What is your name ? ``

'' Arngeirr, and yours ? ''

'' ... Raiden .... ''
