Ah that's better. Now that stinking cell is a distant memory I can put my fighting skills to some use. My escape from the cell was one that opened up before me, but an opportunity I was not going to miss. Sadly I had to witness the death of our ruler, but he has passed on an amulet and asked me to deliver it to Jauffre at Weynon Priory. So here I am on the road there. Of course being the mercenary type I didn't come this way straight away. That would have been foolish. After all there is plenty of money to be earned, even sorting out petty squabbles between merchants in the Imperial City itself!

What am I doing in this stinking cell? How did I get here? Well actually let's not get into that! Well seeing as you're here I might as well introduce myself. I'm Osiris, and yes I'm a Redguard, how very observant of you. If I was still on the outside you'd also recognise that I am a warrior, and a good one at that. Give me any weapon and any armour and I'll fight and beat the best of them. But I ain't on the outside am I? I'm sure there's some way out of here alive, despite what the inmate across the way says. He reckons that the only way out is in a box, and to be honest if I can get out of this cell and into his he'll certainly be leaving in a box after what he's said about me.

Allow me to introduce myself, I am Hadaster. Yes, I am a Dunmer, Dark Elf, whatever your take. My outspoken attitude put me in, let's say, a 'bad' position with the Imperial Guard and despite flipping a few septims their way I was still imprisoned. For many moons I lay restless in my cell. I was taunted by the other inmates - another Dunmer who said some things about my wife he'll regret should our paths cross again - and as you can expect my mind began to wander onto ending it all. Bizarrely though the Emperor himself stormed through my cell, accompanied by several guards. It seemed he was fleeing some unknown threat. It was then that my route out of the dreaded prison was laid bare before me. Let's just say that I haven't looked back since.
