The passageway seemed to go on for miles but to our luck, the place had been cleared out of all draugers and spiders but that didn't matter to you. All you could think about was Alduin.

"I hope he's all right, I shouldn't have left him"

"there was nothing you could do, Odahviing would have killed you or worse"

Hilda was right, Odahviing had become greedy and hateful. You didn't know where he got the power to make that staff but what you did know is that you had to stop him before he did any more damage.

"just one minute miss"

Hilda pulled out a key from her pocket and approached a small symbol that had been sketched into the wall. Placing the key in a small hole in the middle of the symbol. Turning it slightly until a clicking sound was heard. The wall began to open, revealing a crate on the other side.

"What's that"

"Emergency resources"

She grabbed the crate and the wall closed back up.

"not far now"

Cold air began hitting your face as bright sunlight leaked into the tunnel. The passage way came to a small slice in the cave wall with another symbol placed next to it. As before Hilda opened it with the same key which caused the wall to split even further apart. You stepped through to find yourself at the bottom of a huge snowy mountain.

"where are we?"

"About three hours from Falkreath"

You weren't high up. You stood just above some trees that were below. It wouldn't take you long to climb down.

"we have enough money to get some horses, once we have some we'll ride out to the safe house near Solitude"

"But what about Alduin? What about Nahkriin?"

"Nahkriin will come up with something"

"How do you know? We can't just sit around waiting"

"then what do you suppose we do?"

"You said we were three hours from Falkreath?"

"yes"

"which way?"

"east"

"that means it will take us three days to get to Riften, two if we find horses"

"why would we be travelling to Riften?"

"we can hide in the rat way with the thieves' guild"

"very well"

"were going to have to have some protection, what's in that crate"

"5000 gold pieces, some food and water"

"any weapons?"

"not many, just a dagger, bow and twenty-five arrows"

"that's enough"

You grabbed the bow and arrows and slung them over your shoulder. You looked down at the dress that had become dirty and scruffy at the ends. You looked at Hilda with a slightly apologetic expression before grabbing the dagger. You cut the dress from the thigh down, ripping the torn material away.

"It was nice but not very practical"

"so, what exactly is the plan then?"

"We do what Odahviing has done"

"which is?"

"we gain power"

This chapter would of bin up sooner except i had to spend about half an hour trying to find out how far Riften was from Falkreath. I tried to find out by using google but that ended up saying it was about 600 miles away which i didn't think was very accurate. So I ended up going on to skyrim and traveling the distance myself to find out it took two days by carriage.

I hope you enjoy this chapter and all the bloody annoyance i had to go through. Its Christmas holidays and im having to do Pythagoras to find out the f**king distance between f**king Falkreath and f**king Riften.
