Wilhelm sat on the grindwheel outside of the Falkreath Watchtower, using the spinning stone to sharpen his blade. It had been dulled on the armor and bone of his enemies and he hadn't had a proper opportunity to fix it up lately.
"Is it true what they say about you, you're a Dragonborn?" asked one of the Stormcloak soldiers that held his contract.
"Yeah, what of it?" he countered without looking up.
"I knew at least on of you would agree with our side, with the Dragonborn, we're unstoppable."
"Listen, milk-drinker, I'm not on your side, or their side, I'm on which ever side has the most gold, and that just so happens to be the Stormcloaks at this moment.

Arya walked up toward the grindstone, with something else on her mind. When she got there though, she realized there was someone already using it. So, instead of asking him to move, she just propped up against a nearby wall, removed her helmet, and placed it on the ground. No use wearing it if she didn't have to. Still, her face was in the shade and it was hard to make the prominent features of her face, including the war paint that surrounded her eyes.

After inspecting his blade one last time, the Nord stood up. A rebel soldier began to sit down, only for Wilhelm to set a hand on his shoulder, stopping him. "I believe the lady was next to use it." his eyes meeting the soldier's, who stepped away, letting the tool be open for her.

She looked over and smiled at him before sitting down to sharpen her blade. Though she wasn't bad at smithing, she wasn't to great at it either. It was obvious in how little she was actually able to sharpen it.

The Sellsword noticed her failed attempt at optimal blacksmithing. "Would you like for me to give it a go?" he asked her as he peered over her shoulder, casting his huge shadow over her and the wheel.

She looked over her shoulder at him and smiled. "Please." She answered simply, getting up and facing him in the bright sunlight. Without a second thought, she handed her blade to the stranger and backed away.

He sat back down and went to work on the weapon. "I see from your attire that you're not a Stormcloak either, let me guess a sellsword?"

"Yes. My name is Arya the Unseen. I could care less about who wins, I just want to be with who ever is going to pay me more." She answered with a laugh.

He chuckled a hearty Nordic laugh before finishing her blade. "I'm Wilhelm Bear-Heart, a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Arya. Here," he handed her weapon back, "may you slay many with this, and earn even more coin."

"Thank you so much sir." She said politely before realizing what he said his name was. "Wait. Bear-Heart? As in the famous family of Sellswords?"

"Yes. I'm the last one, though." he said looking toward the horizon. He then smiled and chuckled. "Funny thing about that though. Although all three of my brothers died during the contract, it opened my eyes to something about our family." He turned back toward her. "It turns out that I'm Dovahkiin, Dragonborn."

Her eyes grew wide with amazement. "Wow! I became a Sellsword because of your family! I wanted to be just as good as you guys. But not only that, you are Dovahkiin! This is so cool!"

He chuckled again. "Don't get too excited, you'll burn up all of your energy before the fight even starts."

She quickly calmed down. "Sorry. I just, I didn't think I'd ever meet a Bear-Heart OR a Dovahkiin, and he I just met both in the same person."

"Yes, it is quite the experience, I guess." he sighed before sitting on a bench, resting his battleaxe on his shoulder with the bottom of it on the ground. "The commanding officer of this tower said that the Imperial soldiers would be here within the hour, four hours ago. What are they waiting for?"
