The Dragoon In Skyrim

The next morning Vincent was outside with Lucia and Sofie. While Lucia was motivated to train with her new staff that Adrianne made her. Sofie wasn't like she didn't have an affinity for the spear as she swings the staff. Vincent then gives Sofie a bow and asks her to try it.

Sofie was doing better with the bow and Vincent says, "It seems we found your weapon, Sofie. From today on you will train for two hours every morning like Lucia as well as educate Snow on how to behave around humans don't want to find out he attacked someone when I leave."

"Snow never attacked anyone. He only likes to play around," says Sofie trying to protect Snow.

"You don't need to protect Snow from me, Sofie. But from the people that think Snow could be dangerous and by showing that he is harmless they will have no reason to fear him," says Vincent to Sofie trying to make her understand.

"I can teach him too," says Lucia that was listening to the conversation they were having and wanted to help her sister.

Vincent then summons his Carbuncle and began to play with Snow and educate it to become a good partner when Lucia asks, "Can I also have a pet?"

"What do you want as a pet Lucia?" asks Vincent interested in what Lucia wanted as a pet.

"Can I have a spider?" asks Lucia when Mina came out of the house and heard Lucia.

"No spider in my house," says Mina making Lucia sad when Mina hugs her and says, "Anything else but a spider Luci. I'm very scared of them."

"Alright, how about a dog or a hawk then?" asks Lucia and Vincent pets her head.

"If I find a pup or chick, I will bring it to you," says Vincent as he sees Lucia shine again with her smile and he says, "And now back to training you two."

Both go train while Mina asks, "Why make them train?"

"So they can defend themselves when we aren't around and sooner or later they will have to leave the nest to make their own life," says Vincent while Mina grabs his arm.

They kiss and Mina says, "Just don't train them too hard."

The two weeks passed faster than though for Mina and Vincent as they left for Riverwood on their mounts.

"I hope this will not take us almost a month like last time," says Vincent as they ride towards Riverwood.

"We are only there to get the horn it shouldn't take much time right," says Mina when Vincent looks at her.

"Don't jinx it now. Let's fight a dragon in Riverwood that sounds better than it shouldn't take much time," says Vincent as they arrive in Riverwood.

They dismount and Mina says, "Seems no dragon is flying around."

Making everyone that heard her turn towards her while looking at her with a face saying, "Don't jinx a dragon over."

They enter the Sleeping Giants Inn and Orngar points towards a closed door. Vincent catches the signs and knocks against the door and Delphine opened the door after unlocking 3 locks.

"You really need that many locks on your door?" asks Vincent concerned that Delphine is too paranoid for her own good.

"You never know with all the spies around Skyrim. Now you are here for this," says Delphine while taking the horn out and continues, "I thought we could work together once in a while."

"That depends on the work we are going to do. If I don't like it I won't come," says Vincent and Mina approves of that.

"I will send you a letter when I have work with the information in a secret code. Here is the code to decode the letters. You can either ignore the letter if you don't like the content on it or help me. It's up to you to choose if you accept or not," says Delphine handing over papers on how to decode the letters.

"Thanks," says Vincent putting them away and was preparing to leave.

"I must thank you for helping me in Kynesgrove," says Delphine as Vincent and Mina were about to pass the door.

"See you," says Vincent while Mina was only winking with her hand towards Delphine with a smile.

Vincent then gives five gold coins to Orngar and says, "See you Orngar."

"I'm always open if you ever need a bed come over," says Orngar as Vincent and Mina leave the Inn.

"So now to Ivarstead from here on?" asks Mina while Vincent looks at Lily and begins to think about something he walks over towards Lily.

"Now Lily can you feel the Wind Aether," asks Vincent and Lily only looked at him with a questioning glance. "What I mean is can you fly already?" asks Vincent while petting Lily while she shook her head to say she couldn't and Vincent says to Mina, "It seems you are right Ivarstead is our next destination."

"Then let's go and we might get there by tomorrow," says Mina as she mounts Lily and Vincent mounts Behemoth and they leave towards the south following the street.

They arrive at a burndown village and Vincent dismounts Behemoth and Mina asks, "What's happened here?"

"A dragon. It feels like yesterday that I was here when Alduin attacked this village," says Vincent as he gave a prayer to the lost souls of Helgen when he hears voices coming from inside. He prepares for the worst and takes his spear in hand while Mina dismounts and takes her daggers out.

Then they enter the village and find dead bandits in the village. The enter further in and find some people drinking in the almost burned down tavern. They enter and Vincent recognizes the barkeep and asks, "Vilod is that you?"

"See who the wind brought to the old village," says Vilod as he pours a drink for Vincent and says, "A little late for our hero to appear. Here take this drink and rest if you want to can't give you a room as you can see."

"Did you all kill the bandits?" asks Vincent curious.

"Yes, the people that survived thanks to your warning went to Falkreath and we returned with guards like three days ago. We are rebuilding Helgen and restore what can be restored. Why did you come here?" says Vilod informing Vincent on everything that transpired after they went separate ways.

"We are on our way to Ivarstead wanted to rest somewhere on the street but it seems it's safe to sleep here tonight," says Vincent.

"I can only offer you the floor beside the flames," says Vilod.

"That's more than enough," says Vincent as he takes some gold coins out.

"Can't accept the money from my saver. If you didn't warn me I couldn't have saved many lives even if many died in the keep," says Vilod not accepting the money Vincent was offering.

"Keep it you will need it to rebuild Helgen maybe one day I return and need a bed and you can offer it to me," says Vincent and Vilod accepted the money reluctantly after some minutes.

"You will have always have a friend in Helgen," says Vilod as Mina and Vincent sit down beside the fire and Vilod serves them some food and drinks. They spend the night with all the others and the next day they continued their trip with Vilod saying, "Good Luck on your journey and may Mara watch over you two."

They leave the village and Mina says, "They people were nicer than in all other villages or cities we went."

"That's because they were saved because of my warning. They see me as a hero when I see it as my greatest failure as a Dragoon not been able to fight against a dragon that wasn't even 10m over the ground. I remember that day always hoping something like that doesn't happen again," says Vincent and Mina could hear his fury against himself for not being able to fight Alduin back then.

"It wasn't your fault," says Mina trying to cheer him up.

"*sighs* I know it's just I felt helpless back then. If not for Akatosh motivating me, I would maybe not be here right now. I wouldn't have met you nor the girls and my life wouldn't have any meaning," says Vincent as he begins to pick up the pace so Mina doesn't see him cry when Mina already knew that and just followed behind him until he pushed the tears away.

They arrive at Ivarstead by Nightfall and slept in the Inn. The next day they climb the 7000 steps and reach High Hrothgar at midday because no storm appeared out of nowhere like last time. They enter and find the Greybeards meditating in front of the windows that faced the courtyard.

Vincent approaches Arngeir and says, "I'm back from my trial."

"Ah, Vincent welcome back. This time you have two birds with you. It seems the All-Father really likes you. Now let me reunite all in the entrance and we will begin the Ritual every Dragonborn passes," says Arngeir.

"Ritual?" asks Vincent nervous.

"More like Ceremony to welcome a Dragonborn to our mids," says Arngeir as he wakes the other three from their meditation and they reunite at the entrance and Arngeir says, "It would be the best if your company and the birds wait in the courtyard since it can be dangerous being in here with us while we perform the ceremony."

"Alright, I will wait outside," says Mina as she drags both Chocobos with her.

The ceremony began and the earth was shaking in whole Skyrim. The voices could be heard all over Tamriel scaring the people that never heard the Greybeards shout before. Vincent in his end was fighting against the urge to fall to the ground. The Greybeards were about to finish when Vincent roars against the roof and an aura manifested. Two giant dragons that didn't fit into the room one was pale as if it was made of light. The other dark as if he could hide in the shadows and they roared at the sky making more noise then the Greybeards.

They disappeared after the ceremony was over and Arngeir says as every one of them give a light bow, "We welcome you in our ranks Dragonborn."

"Was that normal with the aura?" asks Vincent nervous.

"Normally you should awaken your Dragon Aura with this ceremony but you awakened two that would be quite rare if I should say," says Arngeir when suddenly dragon roars could be heard from the top of the mountain. Mina runs in with a bleak face.

"Dragons, I don't know how many but they all went to the top of the mountain," says Mina in panic when they hear a shout.

{Dragonborn we await you on the top of the mountain to talk,} says the voice and Arngeir kneed.

"Paarthurnax is awaiting you it seems," says Arngeir to Vincent.

"He said we, is he a dragon?" asks Vincent.

"Yes, he was the first Dragon to teach the old tongues in the shout to defeat Alduin when the Dragons were ruling over everything," says Arngeir explaining to Vincent who Paarthurnax was. Then he says, "He called you will you go."

"Well, I don't really have a choice in this," says Vincent as he prepared to leave. Then he turns to Mina and says, "You will stay here alright. Don't want something to happen to you."

"I will wait here," says Mina, who hugs Vincent and whispers, "Just come back in one piece."

"You need to go to the courtyard the way should be open now that you were called. Follow the path up and you shall meet them," says Arngeir and Vincent leaves to the courtyard and begins to climb the mountain to the very top.
