Just a Skyrim fanfic: Extended cut

A wild ring (Side)

(The song above kinda fits)

(Leonidas is reading his book of daedric artifacts when he sees something about a cursed ring located in Falkreath)

(Leonidas glides down to Falkreath)

Guard: WOAH! By the gods, who are you?

Leonidas: I simply have a question for you. Have you noticed any werewolf activity lately?

Guard: I have. There's one in the jail right now. Why do you ask?

Leonidas: I am doing some research on a werewolf cure. I'm going to need a small sample of his blood

Guard: Fine. But no funny business

(Leonidas uses the skeleton key to break into the jail and finds a man in rags inside of a cell)

Sinding: Come to gawk at the monster?

Leonidas: Why are you in here?

Sinding: A little girl is dead because of me. Believe me, it wasn't anything I ever intended to do. I just... lost control. I tried to tell them, but none of them believed me. It's all on account of this blasted ring

Leonidas: What ring?

(Sinding takes off his ring and shows it to Leonidas)

Sinding: This is the ring of Hircine. I was told that it could help me control my transformations. Perhaps it used to, but now I'll never know. Hircine didn't care for me taking it, and threw a curse upon it. I put it on, and the changes just came to me. I could never guess when. It would be the worst times too. Like with that little girl

(Sinding starts to sob into his hands)

Leonidas: Transformation, as in turning into a werewolf?

Sinding: Yes. Exactly. I don't suppose there's a point in keeping that a secret if I'm going to die in here anyway. But I'm sure you've heard of men who are able to shift into beasts under the influence of the moons. It is my secret. And my shame. That's why I wanted that ring. It was said to give men like me control over my transformations. I may look like a man, but I can still feel the animal inside of me, as strong as ever

Leonidas: What will you do now?

Sinding: I've been looking for a way to appease Hircine. There is a certain beast in these lands. Large and majestic. it is said that Hircine will commune with whoever slays it. I tracked it into the woods, but then I had my accident with the child. I want to beg for his forgiveness. And to give him back the ring. But while I'm stuck in here, the beast wanders free

Leonidas: Do you want me to take the ring to Hircine for you?

Sinding: Oh my. You would do that for me? Here, take it. I don't want anything to do with this wretched thing anymore

(Sinding gives his ring to Leonidas)

Sinding: Seek out the beast. He wanders these very woods. Bring him down, and the lord of the hunt shall smile upon you. I wish you luck, but you should leave here while I still have my skin. Should our paths cross again, I will remember your kindness

(Sinding turns into a werewolf and breaks out of the cell)

Leonidas: OH.... Ok, I guess I could have thought that one through a little more

(Leonidas opens the cell with the skeleton key and exits through the hole in the cell wall)

Leonidas: LAAS YAH NIIR
