Imperial Legate Erendur Report 2 Assignment: The Rift

  • I finally made it up to Froki's little cabin. Such a small place, it almost looks as though the entire thing could be gone within an hour, were I to set it aflame...

    I walked inside to find a little boy, Haming, as I recall. He was in Helgen. My my a tough boy he must be to survive that, or a bloody coward. Asleep on a small bed was Froki. I kicked him awake and stated my predicament.

    He told me I would have to beat the seven spirit guardians of Kyne, the bear, wolf skeever, crab, sabre cat, mammoth, and finally the troll. I shrugged grabbed my bow headed out the door. Almost two days later I returned with proof of my kills and asked if he would now share. his training techniques. He laughed and said, "My boy, you just passed them. Here. these are tokens that allow those creatures to return to their dens. You can use them to train your soldiers. Now go! I need my beauty sleep".

    I couldn't believe what I had heard. What I had just done was simple.....but then again I felt more....in tune with my bow.

    In a three hour journey I returned to my camp and explained to Derkeethus what had happened. He scoffed and told me he had done that years ago. After a hot meal nice bath and a pleasant night with some concubines, I awoke early enough to start training my soldiers....even though only a few would come back alive and in one piece, I knew my garrison would make a significant difference in the soon coming battles.

    After a few weeks of losing and replacing men I finally got my new orders from Tulius. I was to head immediately to our camp in Winterhold Hold to capture fort Kastav. Only Derkeethus was aloud to come with me
