章 42: 5.15:The Way Of The Voice
Loredas, 16th of Last of Seed, 4E201
A day before, the return of Alduin, the world eater, a man was on his way to High Hrothgar, with a backpack on his shoulders, delivering food to the Greybeards. There was another man with him, who was on his way to pray and read the emblems, that were scattered throughout the 7,000 steps journey.
.

"You come here often?" The man asked Klimmek.
"You can say that, I come here every few weeks," Klimmek answered.
The journey was silent, the man with Klimmek, it was his first time climbing so high up the mountain, as he would normally stop at around 2,800, the highest he climbed was 4,000 steps.
Soon, they reached a path surrounded by rocks, which surrounded the path so high that if someone were to put logs up there, the path would look like a tunnel.
As they were about to cross it, they heard a roar, more ferocious than any animal they had ever come across before, they looked up, to where the sound came from and saw, a more than 7 feet tall Frost troll, the strongest and the most resilient of the species stood atop them.
ROAR!!!!
Sensing their gaze was set on him, it roared again, louder than before as it jumped from above, landing right in front of them.
Klimmek and the stranger's eyes were set on his three black eyes, the stranger stood behind Klimmek, when he unsheathed his sword, bringing it in front of him to shield from any attack.
The Frost Troll jumped on Klimmek, seeing him frozen in his spot, the Troll's jaw was wide-open as it launched himself forward, bringing Klimmek down to the ground.
It was about maul Klimmek, when the stranger thrusted his sword in its shoulder, the troll winced in pain backing away from Klimmek. Klimmek finally out of his daze, stood up from the ground, and ran, leaving the stranger behind to fend for himself.
The stranger's eyes moved toward him for a second, his face filled with sadness at the sudden betrayal as he was plummeted to the ground by the Troll, it saw its opportunity to strike, and it began to eat him alive as the man screamed.
Aaaarg!
Heeelp!
Someone!!
Klimmek who was running still in shock, 'Where did it come?' he asked himself, his pace increasing as much as it could in the heavy snow.
Huff!!
Huff!
His breathing was irregular as the cold made it harder for him to breathe, his steps began to stagger, but he kept running for fear that the troll might catch up to him, not knowing it was busy devouring a dead man.
He kept running, but he was soon out of breath, his eyes a little blurry and he didn't see a rock sitting in front of him, he kept running, and his foot made contact with the rock.
Krunch!!
If someone stood next to him they would be able to hear the bones breaking in his foot, He screamed feeling the pain, and stumbled, falling into the snow, and he soon blacked out.

17th of Last Seed
Klimmek woke up on his bed with a sudden jolt and fear written on his face, he looked finding none, he tried to stand but was unable to, looking at his feet, he remembered what had happened, as the flashes of memories were quite vivid now.
He soon released a sigh of relief and was thankful that he lived. He asked Gwilin the wood elf, how he got here, and he told him he found him at the bridge.
Someone on the pilgrimage had saved his life but had taken everything on him of value for themselves.

"T-The Troll," Klimmek stuttered.
"Yeah, the one above," Darius said.
Klimmek thought for a moment, and said, "I'll give you 2000 gold if you bring me the troll's head," Klimmek said determined, this was his savings that he was willing to spend, remembering Vilor's(Stranger's) face. He had felt regret in these last few days, had he helped him would the outcome have changed?
"That's what I'm talking about," Darius with a stupid smile said, seeing that he 4x his earning, he was filled with excitement.
System Prompt: Quest: Deliver Food to the Greybeards:
Reward: 10 Attributes
And he will be getting 10 Attribute points as well.
Klimek gave him two bags filled with food, which Darius gave to his two minions to carry, he could put them into his inventory, but that's just boring.
Lydia took it silently, while Uthgerd had a tick mark on her face, but still took it.

Darius, Lydia, and Uthgerd climbed the mountain, Uthgerd and Darius were excited for different reasons, one was greed, and the other was battle. While Lydia moved cautiously, as she had never fought a beast as big as Troll before, since she mostly trained with people as a soldier
They continued the cold now taking its effect on the Nord's reliant blood, sending shivers, through their bodies.
They soon arrived at the Beast's lair. He stood atop the cliff, that surrounded the path, and it roared.
ROAR!!!
It Jumped down, Not knowing what Darius had prepared for it, Even his companions didn't know it, ass they steadied their swords, Darius put his wrists together, his palms open and facing the beast.
KaaaMeeeHaaMeeHaaa!!!
He screamed in his head as a laser-like beam shot out of his hands, with a circumference of around 16 inches, dug into the beast's chest, killing it, before it even had a chance to blink.
The beast fell on his back, and Uthgerd and Lydia were utterly shocked at the strength and mastery of his Magic, 'He's not just physically strong,' Both wondered.
Uthgerd soon came out of shock and looked at the ground with pity, that she didn't even get to swing her at such a marvelous creature.
She sighed and sheathed her sword, "Wait," Darius stopped, "Cut its head first," He said as he needed it for proof.
"Yes, sir," Uthgerd said dejectedly.
