 [ Helgen Keep ] - 3 Years Ago -

The Prisoner

Gods... that was close, if not for that... thing I'd had lost my head

Ralof

Yes, well we should be safe inside here for now

The Prisoner

Gods... was that, a Dragon?

Ralof

It appeared to be a Dragon yes

The Prisoner

Thought they were all dead though?

Ralof

As did I, but as you said if not for that thing we would all be headless right now, now come on we need to find a way out of here going back out there is death

The Prisoner

Hmm... I'm--

Ralof

Hmm, locked. Damn it, can you pick a lock?

The Prisoner

What? No, I'm not a thief, I'm a--

Ralof

Shh, did you hear that? Fighting down the hall

The Prisoner

Right, we need to get out of here

Ralof

Agreed, look around for a key

The Prisoner

Okay, uh sorry what was your name?

Ralof

Ralof, Ralof of Riverwood

The Prisoner

Nice to meet you Ralof, I'm--

Ralof

Shh! Someones coming

The Prisoner

Imperial Solders

Ralof

Hide!

The Prisoner

Why? We all need to work together if we are to get out of here alive

Ralof

Tell them that

The Prisoner

Please listen to me, we--

The Prisoner

By the eight

Ralof

You mean Nine!

The Prisoner

Yes, sorry I meant nine

Ralof

Come on, lets go!

The Prisoner

Holly.... did you see that?

Ralof

Sadly yes, come on we need to keep moving, that Dragon is bringing down the whole keep and if we do not hurry we will be buried under it

The Prisoner

Yes, but... I need a moment friend. I'm... not used to all this

Ralof

Right, Milk-Drinker

The Prisoner

Hey! I... uh have no idea what you means? I drink milk from time to time yes

Ralof

Hah, your a Nord alright but not from Skyrim for sure

The Prisoner

Cyrodill, my family live near Bruma and--

Ralof

Enough, we can talk later, now we must keep moving

The Prisoner

Right, sorry

Ralof

Hmm, lets see if we can find some help down here

The Prisoner

Yes, we need to all be on the same side if we are to survive this madness!

Ralof

Imperials hold--

The Prisoner

Gosh you Nords really do like your swordplay, back home most people talk rather then just kill one another

Ralof

Yes, well Skyrim has a Civil War you know?

The Prisoner

Not really, I'm just a farmer

Ralof

By Talos, of all people to manage to flee to safety, I get stuck with a useless Milk drinking farm girl

The Prisoner

Hey! I can swing a axe... oh my!

Ralof

A.... torture room, DIE!

The Prisoner

I thought the Empire was better then this?

The Prisoner

Gods... this is crazy

Ralof

Hmm, its good to see friendly faces. You, my new friend look for something of use

The Prisoner

You got it Ralof, oh wait this is my belongings

Ralof

Any weapons in that knapsack?

The Prisoner

No, just this little dagger father gave me

Ralof

Damn, we need to hurry, you two go ahead I'll take a look for any potions or weapons we can use to help us get back into Stormcloak territory

The Prisoner

Wait up, I'm coming!

Ralof

Hurry!

The Prisoner

I....

Ralof

Faithless Dogs!

The Prisoner

So this is what War is like?

Ralof

This is not War, this is cowardliness at its finest

The Prisoner

Skeletons, hmm hope you remain dead. I heard your rather tough in a fight

The Prisoner

I'm all set Ralof

Ralof

Good, we need to go. We've wasted enough time as it is

The Prisoner

Okay okay

Ralof

Stay close, the Imps do not care if your not one of us

The Prisoner

Hmm, nice.... oh, your all fighting again

Ralof

Ahhhhh!

The Prisoner

I never imagined this would happen to me when I took a little walk

The Prisoner

Oh no, Ralof look out!

Ralof

Huh?

The Prisoner

Behind you!

Ralof

Damn Imperials!

The Prisoner

Few!

The Prisoner

So much death, have enough people not died today?

Ralof

It was them or us little milk drinker

The Prisoner

Yes, but--

Ralof

No buts, it was them or us

The Prisoner

By the eight!

Ralof

Nine!

The Prisoner

Yes, I'm sorry the nine divines. Geez

Ralof

Alright, looks like they are trapped, fear not Talos is with them as he is with us

The Prisoner

I'm--

Ralof

I know, a farm girl. Now we are not out of this mess yet, but atleast we it will be more easier to get out of this cave

The Prisoner

Yes, thank you friend

Ralof

Its alright, I know someone is watching over us for sure, Talos or another I can not say

The Prisoner

Yeah, maybe it was fate?

Ralof

Fate?

The Prisoner

Well I get caught crossing the border, you all get caught the same day. We all end up in a small city only to be saved by a Dragon, a Dragon!

Ralof

Think the Dragon was a aspect of the Divines?

The Prisoner

I don't know, he was pretty mad for sure

Ralof

Maybe its a sign to the Empire to make them see that they've lost their way

The Prisoner

I dont know, I just cant wait to get home

Ralof

You live far?

The Prisoner

I already said, on the border near Bruma

Ralof

Hmm, well after today you'll need to rest before you return home

The Prisoner

Thats kind, thank you but--

Ralof

My Sister lives in Riverwood, we can stay there for sometime then when ready you can go home and I'll return to Windhelm

The Prisoner

That seems fair, thank you Ralof

Ralof

Hey I'll make you a True Daughter of Skyrim yet
