  • The Outlawed Hero- Chapter 7

    Chapter 7 "Amazing." Farengar said in a hushed tone. Taking the Dragonstone from my hands, the Court Wizard ran a hand over its runed surface, his eyes filled with intrigue. Without looking up, he reached into his robes with his other hand and produced a jingling leather pouch. My payment. I extende...
  • The Outlawed Hero- Chapter 8

    Chapter 8 The stench of charred corpses filled my nose as I got closer and closer to the Western Outpost. The walls to the small fort had crumbled in places, and the area around its perimeter was scorched barren by flames. The closer I got, the more damage revealed itself, putting a small flicker of...
  • The Outlawed Hero- Chapter 6

    Chapter 6 Smoke slowly drifted off of the bodies of the dead men around me. Some still burned, while others had been reduced to piles of simmering embers on the ground. When they had first attacked me, I had been confident my rapid sword strokes would cut through the converging undead. Instead, I fo...

    Chapter 4 Three conical, stone pillars stood around me, as the sun's rays glimmered on the lake ahead. The standing stones. Carved into each, from left to right, were pictures of 3 different men. A thief, a mage and a warrior. If I prayed to one of the stones, I would be granted a greater prowess i...

    Chapter  3 The heavy wooden door slammed open, smashing into the back of the soldier guarding it. We trampled over him, jumping through the opening into the storeroom. After killing the first guard, there was only an Imperial captain left in the room. He put up a short fight, but was no match for o...
  • The Outlawed Hero- Chapter 2

    Chapter 2 "You there, step forward." called an Imperial soldier, who held a worn leather tome in his hands. He was obviously a Nord, despite his allegiance to the Empire. I stepped forward, to await judgement from the Imperial captain. After looking at me and glancing back at his book, the soldier,...

  • The Outlawed Hero- Chapter 1

    Chapter 1 "You there, cat, wake up." The thickly accented Nord voice roused me from my unwilling slumber. My first feeling was the pain that generated from the back of my head, causing a sound only I heard, like a drum pounding inside my brain. As my eyes grudgingly opened, I began to feel a bumpy,...

  • The Outlawed Hero- Prologue/Introduction

    Before I start the first part of this story, I'd like to refer to a few points of reference for those who are a bit confused with the main character or anything else. I've made a Table of Contents with the backstory of Na'jad the Ironclaw, a brief summary of the events that brought him to Skyrim and...
