Chapter 5
I walked up to the tallest building I could see, it looked like an Inn but I couldn't be sure. I entered cautiously and looked around, and something caught my eyes. A stuningly beautiful young Altmer. Not wanting to seem rude I quickly looked away before she noticed I was staring. I sat down at a table and listened to her talk. Not only her, but a whole gathering of people seemed to be at this inn. They all seemed friendly enough, though some of them seemed dangerous enough as well.
I had the innkeep bring me a drink as I listened to their conversation, it seemed strange. Yet, as I thought about it, my whole life would seem strange had I spoken about it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I got out of bed to answer the knock on my door, it was late and I didnt know who would be visiting. Had the news of my sister's and mother's deaths traveled so fast?
When I opened the door I was grabbed by the shoulder and dragged outside, the next thing I felt was a boot in my stomach. I attempted to yell out for help, but something was stuffed in my mouth. I was next pulled by the hair and dragged back into my house. Where many painful experiences followed. I was a target of the imperial legion.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I realized halfway through my drink that I had no money to give the innkeeper for it. I would have to ask for money, hoping those people would be kind enough to help me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I had very little recollection of my beating but when I came too, I was in much pain. My face had been bloodied and my body was riddled with bruises. That's when I heard another knock at my door and I froze. My mind filled with frightening thoughts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Walking nervously up to the group of what looked like adventurers, I asked as confidently as I could:
"Excuse me if I'm interupting, but I could use some assistance."
A woman turned and said:
"Go ahead young man."
Replying I said:
"Well it's sort of a complicated story but in short, can I borrow some spare coins? I do not have much to offer in return and my business is secret."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I made sure I found some kind of weapon before answering, in this case a wooden plank. Opening the door, I saw two Imperial Legion Guards standing there. Scared, I stepped back.
But one spoke out:
"Stay where you are, I have a warrant for your arrest."
He paused and said sternly:
"In the name of the Imperial Legion and the Emperor, I place you under arrest for the murder of an Imperial officer."
And they grabbed me by my arms. Pushing me out into the street and down the road.
NOT QUITE THE END
----------------------------------------
Note: So there is part of his horrible past, it was the worst part so I told it to you. Hope you enjoyed the story of Niran Cular.
