Dragons and "Rift"-raft [S'kvari]

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

Wilhelm walked out of the front gate to Goldenglow Estate tossing a full coin purse up and down. "Oy, Wilhelm, get back here, we need you." called one of the mercenaries. Without turning this head the Nord called back, "My contract is up, you can go on without me, ya milk drinkers." Of course he was kidding about the 'milk drinkers' part. He soon made it to the main road between Riften and Windhelm before looking either way. "Hmm, wonder where the next wee bit of gold will be?"

[S'kvari]

Not bothering to take to the shadows as she stormed away Riften, S'kvari sprinted along the main road between Riften and Windhelm. She intend to, just to spite her General, make a long stop in Windhelm to agitate the Stormcloaks before heading off to Whiterun. Her helmet was at her side, clanking against her armor as she ran. "Stupid beggars." she hissed out loud, her ears back and angry. "Might as well kill them all."

As she ran though, she started slowing down, and eventually stopped. Her ears perked up and she looked around. There was something powerful near by. Something... Draconic.

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

"What's a Legionnaire doing down here in Stormcloak territory?" asked Wilhelm as the cat stopped, walking up so that he was in earshot. "It's clear your a higher up. Ain't it a bit dangerous to be doing that sort of thing, hmm, kitty?"

[S'kvari]

S'kvari bared her teeth in the direction she was facing but didn't move. "What's it matter to you?" She growled, still not looking at him, but knowing his race by his voice. "I'm just as much a native to this land as you, Nord. Unless you are part of that senseless rebellion... Then I'll have to destroy you."

She finally turned to him and pulled out her weapon. What she didn't expect was to be staring into the guy's chest. Slowly she glanced up and gave a devilish grin. "By Talos, Skyrim grows them big!"

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

"I ain't a part of either side, I just go wherever the gold flows." He leaned over as he said this, so that his eyes met hers, his amulet of Talos hanging from his neck loosely. "And I thought the Imperials where out to get rid of Talos worship?" He took a step back, returning to his full height. He removed his helmet to show her his face.

[S'kvari]

"Just because I am part of the Legion, doesn't mean I agree with everything they do. I was born here, worshiping all nine of them. Just because a bunch of point ear-ed bastards say that worshiping Talos is bad, doesn't mean I have to listen. I'm a part of the legion because Skyrim needs those stupid Imperials..." S'kvari explained, putting away her weapon and placing a hand on her hip. With the other hand, she pulled out her amulet of Talos from is hiding spot so he could see it, before returning it to its rest.

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

"I know how you feel." he laughed at the cat's stance. "I don't need some fancy-smancy elf, Imperial, or kinsmen to tell me who to worship. I've worshiped the Nine Divines my whole life, and that ain't about to change." He put his helmet back on before continuing. "I'm Wilhelm Bear-Heart, and even though I use an axe, I'm a sellsword."

[S'kvari]

"Sellsword, huh? That's it? Kinda boring if you ask me." S'kvari joked, showing that she was no longer a possible threat. "Legate S'kvari. Good to know a decent Nord."

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

"Believe me, that ain't all I am. I wouldn't expect a housecat to understand." he said as he looked off toward the Throat of the World. He saw the faint silhouette of a dragon fly nearby the mountain. "I'll need to do something about that one." He turned back to the Khajiit. "You never did answer me, what's an Imperial doing this deep in Stormcloak territory?"

[S'kvari]

"Beggars. General wants an expendable unit." Was the answer she gave, but her eyes were focused on the large reptile flying in the distance. Come over here... I dare you. She taunted it in her head.

"There isn't much I can't understand, you hairy giant." S'kvari chuckled, still focused on the dragon that occasionally flew around the visible side of the mountain. "I've read and done some strange things."

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

"Hmm, I'm sure the Empire has noticed the return of the dragons, and every Skyrim native knows what comes with the dragons. The Dragonborn, or Dovahkiin. I am one of those born with the blood and soul of a dragon flowing through me. That maybe why I'm so big." He scratched his beard at that last part, seemingly deep in thought.

[S'kvari]

At the mention of the Dovahkiin, the cat's ears perked up again. "I thought I sensed the dragon blood, but I though maybe it was just a dragon in the distance." She admitted, suddenly seeming quite amused. She took a couple of steps back, before shouting "Wuld!" She was gone instantly, or so it seemed. Instead, she actually sprinted behind him using the Th'um. "Seems we may not be so different after all."

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

"Ah, so you know a Word of Whirlwind Sprint." He motioned for her to step back as he took a breath. "Fus, Ro Dah!" he shouted, ripping up plants and rocks, sending them flying into the rock wall nearby.

[S'kvari]

"I can use the first word of Unrelenting Force, Whirlwind Sprint, and Aura Whisper. I know the rest of Unrelenting Force and Aura Whisper, I just need another soul to be able to use it." She said, snickering at the poor landscape. "You really showed those plants what for, Wilhelm. You go big guy."

[Wilhelm Bear-Heart]

He chuckled at the cat's words. "I also need another soul. I've discovered the location of Fire Breath's word 'Yol.' I'm sure you've noticed the scaly bastard in the distance." He asked pointing to the winged beast.
