The Dragoon In Skyrim

Chapter 73 - Camping in the Wild

"We won't give up on our Gods just because a stranger says they aren't real gods," says Marethari as she rejected Vincent's proposal.

"Well, I can't change the way you are thinking after all," says Vincent as he knew why she rejected him.

He also had his own Gods he prays to. Most don't understand it but every Highwind knows the 13 Gods by memory because sometimes Vincent would appear out of nowhere and question them about said Gods.

"Well, we will stay around here then. Tomorrow we will travel again further into the forest," says Vincent as Marethari and the others were about to leave when Theron looked back wanting to join them but he continues to follow his Keeper.

"It seems the boy wants to join us," says Serana as she was sitting beside the fire.

"But he won't if his sister doesn't join us too. So let's forget them for now anyway," says Vincent as he gets a note from Lucia and continues, "It seems Naosane has received the treaty from Lucia and isn't really happy about how the Mer are treated around here."

"Why did you send him how they are treated around here. You know that he would be quite angry about it," says Anra as she like the other women raised Naosane as their own child and knew what could trigger him and what wouldn't.

"It's to prepare him for what is to come in the future. He was getting sloppy lately as there wasn't a war for over 50 years since Molag Bal tried to bring Tamriel back into Coldharbour again. It was nice to beat the shit out of him with his own mace," says Vincent as he sat beside the fire as well when Anra joins them.

"Yes, that brings some nice memories to overwrite the bad ones I had before," says Serana as she leaned against Vincent as did Anra while they were eating some rations Vincent prepared.

Anra went to bed with Vincent while Serana took the first hours of the night watch. After four hours Vincent came to relieve her as she kissed him before entering the tent to sleep.

Vincent was laying beside Behemoth watching the forest so nothing attacks them when he hears something. He stands up as he was suddenly surrounded by his Drachen-set and his spear in his hand.

"Come out and I won't kill you," says Vincent as he points his spear in the direction of a bush.

A woman came out of the bush she was wearing some robes that weren't really fit for someone that lives in a forest. She was holding her hands up showing that she didn't want to do something to them.

"Girl, what are you doing out here?" asks Vincent as he puts the spear.

"Survive my pursuers," says the woman as she clearly was tense and seemed to not have slept much the last few days.

"Someone is following you, why? Did you run from an engagement or something like that," asks Vincent as he was quite curious why a girl in robes would be in the forest.

"Engagement how funny. Have you never seen a Mage before. We can't marry even if we wanted to. Also, our children would be taken away by the Templars to be made sure they aren't mages before letting them live in an orphanage to train them to become Templars," says the woman as she approached Vincent.

"Right, but I thought mages reside in a circle with other mages being protected by templars," says Vincent as the woman begins to laugh at what Vincent said.

"Nice joke, templars are there to protect us. They are more like guard dogs without a leash that can whatever they want," says the woman explaining the real situation inside a circle to Vincent.

"Then it seems I was misinformed about the situation inside the circles. We from the Empire don't look at Magic that harsh only on certain types of magic but we don't ban them since they can be quite useful," says Vincent as he was quite misinformed about this matter only knowing what he was told by Anora.

"So you are from Tevinter then?" asks the woman as now it was Vincent's turn to smile.

"No, we aren't from Tevinter. We came from the west where the biggest empire on Nirn exists. Tevinter would be like a child compared to our Empire. You want to hear about it," says Vincent as the woman nod and Vincent reignites the campfire.

Vincent told her about it that everyone in the Empire could use magic and about the different races that existed in it as well as their religion.

"That sounds like a wonderful place for mages that can study without being at risk to become tranquil," says the woman that Vincent found out was Solona Amell.

"You should sleep if you want to there is still some space in the tent just be careful not to get near the women or you might be eating in the confusion," says Vincent as Solona bows to him thanking him and enters the tent.

Vincent was watching the sky as it had almost no stars in it because the veil was blocking them off. Most stars Vincent could see were the stars that shined the brightest in Tamriel.

"This land really is cursed," says Vincent as it seemed that more unwelcome guests came to his camp.

He takes his spear up and points it in the direction he heard the people coming as three people in armor stood in front of him.

"Turn back we don't want trouble," says Vincent as the looked at them.

"We are looking for a Mage that colluded with a Blood Mage to escape the Circle of Ferelden. She has long brown hair and brown eyes. Have you seen a woman that could fit this description," says one of them while the other two were acting quite suspiciously.

"I have seen her but she is now under the protection of the Highwind Empire. If you were to touch her you would risk a war breaking," says Vincent as a simple warning to make them back away while the people began to laugh

"Highwind Empire never heard of it," says one of them mocking Vincent when sudden Vincent laughed even louder than them when another one asks, "What's so funny?"

"Your ignorance if you really want to start a war them let me show you just a glimpse of the Empire's strength," says Vincent as his twin Dragons appear behind him staring at the Templars.

The Templars fall over just from the pressure they were feeling from seeing an actual Dragon and now that it were two they got quite scared.

"You still think you should provoke the Empire. We conquered Continents when your great-grandparents were still shitting their pants," says Vincent as they wanted to escape only to find someone behind them.

"We want that blood that you carry with you. For people that hate blood magic you quite use it much," says Vlad as he was holding a sword in his hand while searching his free hand to receive the vial they were carrying with them.

They hand it over quite fast as Vincent says, "If your superior asks why you returned tell him or her that we have the mage. I want to see how they will react to that."

The Templars run away when Vincent then turns Vlad who hands over the vial with blood. Vincent just destroys it and says, "The Chantry seems quite corrupt for someone that prays the whole day Blood Magic is bad and still use it to track their mages down."

"My Lord why not just invade like with Akavir?" asks Vlad as he was by Vincent side when he conquered Akavir.

"Because this is a little different. The Darkspawn is a risk factor or I would have led the troops already here. Once we have everything we need about the Darkspawn we will leave and prepare for the invasion of Thedas. We begin with Par Vollen and Seheron putting Jyggalag into place before continuing with Rivain. Once on the mainland, we have fought our way through until everything would be under our control," says Vincent explaining the battle plan would have been.

"But for now we won't attack until the veil is gone and we know how to deal with the Darkspawn. Once that is done we can't talk about an invasion of Thedas," says Vincent as he puts his hand on Vlad's shoulder and continues, "My friend, sooner or later we will charge again into the battlefield again but for now let's enjoy the peace."

"Yes, my lord," says Vlad as he returns to the shadows.

Vincent then turns around and says, "You know spies have a short life."

Suddenly Vincent's spear flew out of his hands and pierced a tree where Theron was spying from. Theron falls to the ground from the impact of the spear against the tree.

"Now boy why have you returned?" asks Vincent as Theron was now scared to have been found out.

He saw the Twin Dragons and was quite afraid of Vincent right now.

"I just wanted to hear more stories about Tamriel that's why I returned. I didn't want to spy you," says Theron as he crawled against the tree while Vincent was approaching him.

When Vincent arrived at Theron's side he takes the spear out of the tree and says, "You need to calm down boy. You are worried that I will kill you but my question would be why. If you run into Denerim telling them 'The Empire is planning an invasion' they would rather put you away marking you as crazy until it is too late."

Theron was quite intimidated by Vincent right now when suddenly a letter appears in front of Vincent.

He reads it and reads something interesting. Vincent had a smile on his face as he asks, "Do you want to meet one of your Gods?"

Theron completely misunderstood Vincent at that moment and just fell unconscious from the panic he was feeling. Vincent laughs and says, "It's been long that someone fell unconscious because of fear in front of me."

He picks Theron up and puts him near the fire so he doesn't freeze in the cold. The letter came from Hrotti telling him that she killed some suspicious Mers that were going into some ruin finding a sleeping Mer that looked like an Altmer.

She marked the location it was south from where the Werewolves were right now making the trip quite profitable if what she found was really what they are looking for.
