The Antiquated Scrolls XIV: Skyrim

oh my god look at the time! you were in that cart longer than you thought. you needed to be at riverwood two hours ago!

take that axe though

Well… you’ve had just about enough of this town.



You grab the executioner’s axe and are heading for the section of the town wall that has been conveniently obliterated, when you are accosted by Guardsperson Not-Ralof.



“Oy! Outlander!” They call to you. “Now I know I was just very recently trying to do an execution on you, but no harm done, eh?.” They do not wait for a response. “Howzabout we escape from the town together in the emergency escape tunnel that we have built here for some reason?”



“I know, I know… but, we all worked real hard on this escape tunnel wouldn’t you love to see the tutorial about sneaking, and um, all the spiders and everything?” Not-Ralof asks.



You make a beeline for the hole in the wall, with Not-Ralof following uncertainly behind you.



“Again really sorry about the whole execution situation.” Not-Ralof says as you trek through the snowy hills. “I mean I guess you did do a crime and I was just carrying out my duty as a guardsperson. I don’t really feel bad about doing my job, you know. Funny though how like a dragon attacked just as you were about to be executed and now we can just chat and be friends like this as though the whole execution thing wasn’t a thing. You’d think I’d want to turn you into the guards at Riverwood when we get there but I definitely won’t do that. As far as I’m concerned that dragon might as well have been hand delivering a blisteringly hot pardon for any and all crimes you may or may not have committed. Funny old world when you think about it though.”



You make your way down to Riverwood. You pass a big rock that can change your birthday, and a mine where a bunch of bandits probably live now or something.



Finally you arrive in the bustling town of Riverwood. A town full of things to see and things to do. Things such as: a working sawmill with a lever you can really pull, a dog that exists, a shop you can get a quest from and a tavern that definitely does not hide a secret basement of secrets.
