Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
The dragons, thought long extinct, have returned.
At first there were only rumors, dismissed as raving brought on by drink or madness. But then, the sky over Whiterun darkened as they swept down, an unstoppable force of destruction. The once-proud city, trade center for Skyrim and the Empire, was reduced to ruins. Only the sacrifice of the Jarl, his court and the Companions allowed the citizens to escape with their lives.
For the next few weeks all was silent. Then, at the Imperial fortress of Helgen, they appeared yet again, this time a single dragon black as the night and covered in spines. The fortress was utterly destroyed, though General Tullius managed to escape along with the captured Ulfric Stormcloak. A handful of other prisoners escaped as well. This could only be the intervention of the Divines, for four of these would turn out to be Dragonborn - dragon souls in mortal bodies, the natural slayers of the winged beasts. They defended Riverwood from the dragon Wuthbahthar and were summoned to High Hrothgar by the Greybeards.
Now, they have been tasked with the recovery of an artifact once belonging to the founder of the Greybeards' ancient order. With the aid of a lone Bosmer ranger, Vaninir Half-Blind, Ilyssa Volesse, Thomuel Brutmarc and Quells-the-Wind carry the fate of Tamriel on their shoulders. None but them can oppose the dragons, and if they fall...
Well, let's just hope they don't, shall we?
Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Allenin takes a moment to set up the DragonBorn's camp. He works fast, and has a small fire, and his cooking kit roasting Venison for dinner. The meat is large, and well seasoned with salt and frost mirintha. The smell lofts into the air and creates a hungry atmosphere as he tends and stokes the fire. A few tents are set up, and the swamp smells try to seep into the small encampment. The frost spiders of Morthal were troublesome indeed, but no match for hunters like them. He spoke little, if he even spoke at all. He understood the enjoyment of silence. He had learned much, from listening to them talk. They had quite the adventure ahead, and thank Hircine he was right. He knew, that before the end of the road, they would need him. He still watched the roads, and took the night shifts, letting the others rest. But he never stopped looking for the caravan. Maybe, he thought, it was time he did.

Allenin finished cooking the meat, and takes it off the spit, and slices it into strips. He chews on one, and places the rest of the meat strips down, and looks to the others. "Dinner is done. I'm going out again." He stands, and tests his bow string, before scanning the area and starting to walk out.

Ilyssa didn't bother watching him leave. Allenin seemed trustworthy - for obvious reasons, the Breton kept very close track of her belongings and not a one had gone missing. She had been annoyed, however, at his constant vigilance. It seemed like he never slept, or if he did, it wasn't long enough for her to notice and certainly not long enough for her to lighten his coin purse for him.

Thom goes over to dinner and help himself

The Breton was next, taking a strip of meat to nibble on as she laid out her bedroll.
Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Allenin comes back with what looks like to be 3/4ths of a bear. He tosses it to the side of the camp, and sighs. He sits down, and runs his hand on the claw cut. 'I'm getting tired, not focusing like I need to. I am stupid for not resting more. AH, but this blood that runs though me. I can never fully rest.' He thinks to himself, as he scoots closer to the fire. He looks over at the others on their bed rolls, and then looks up at the stars. He stares for a long time up at the moon, and enters a meditation state.

Allenin suddenly sleeps, his head falls forward, and his hair arcs over his eyes. His breathing rumbles in his lungs, as he rests.

"Go right ahead." Vaninir, in contrast to the suddenly-sleeping elf, was about as perceptive as a log. Ilyssa turned away to hide her smile. There was a certain thrill that came with the anticipation of stealing something. Finally, she'd have the chance to liberate a few of that Bosmer's septims.

Thom lays on the ground unmoving but he doesn't sleep

Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Once everyone appeared to be asleep, Ilyssa carefully got up and made her way across to where Allenin's pack lay near the elf.
Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
There is a heavy smell of wet dog around the pack and Allenin. He looks so tired, slumped in his meditation. He dreams not, his blood still surging and pounding in his skull. His breathing is heavy and strained, and his eyes jutter under his eyelids.

Ilyssa made a face at the smell, then carefully flipped the leather pack open and went through its contents, looking for the coin purse.
Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
"Anything interesting?" Thom asks

Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Ilyssa nearly jumped, before furiously motioning for Thom to shut up.
Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
"Is that a motion to stop me from talking?"

Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Allenin's eyes shoot open, at the sudden noise. His eyes flash almost fearsomely, like a startled animal, and he stares strait into Ilyssa's face. He growls, "Ahem, Looking for something?"

"Checking for anything suspicious - notes or something." Ilyssa replied seamlessly. After Thom interrupted her she'd had a brief second or two with which to compose a response. And she had made it abundantly clear since Ivarstead she didn't trust the elf.
Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Thom was satisfied with that mostly because it was Ilyssa saying it and laid down again

Re: Skyrim Point Five: Thread 2
Allenin sighs, and rools his shoulders. He takes a breath of the cold night air, and holds it a moment before letting it out. "You should sleep, so you have strength. We a meager distance from the horn, and I know that we will encounter a spot of trouble." He pauses, then frowns realizing how guilty that makes him look, knowing that there was trouble. Looking like he planned it. But how could he explain his senses? He had smelled manbeast close by, and blood on the snow. Sure, they were dragonborn, and quite accepting... But they did not trust him as an elf, how would they trust him as a beast?

Thom keeps looking up at the sky "I haven't slept since I could be called alive" he thought

Ilyssa folded her arms. "A spot of trouble? And just what does that mean?"
