Vengeance - An Elder Scrolls Fanfiction (Currently Under Rewrite)

Chapter 12 - New Management

The night had passed of flames and desolation, The screams of a city now halted. It was then I decided to return, Not for long, The Nords would see me as a spy. I didn't care about finding the Dragonborn for these few minutes, Besides he would be gone by now. I walked down the hill I was sat, heading towards the new City of the Stormcloaks.

I walked through the destroyed gate to the city, Bodies and hunks of rock and splintered wood covering the ruined streets. I walked back to the small Apothecary's which was largely untouched. Heading in; there were burly Nord soldiers demanding potions and food. The woman at the counter looked as if she was about to cry, Perhaps she had lost friends, family and now this..I merely set a handful of lavender down on the counter before leaving the store.

I couldn't stay here, not anymore, So I simply headed for the hole where a gate once was.

"You there! Grey-Skin!" A Stormcloak with a pure white eye called out.

I sighed, turning to him slowly "Yes?" I asked simply

He walked close, pushing me back somewhat "You're an Imperial Spy Aintye?!" He yelled at me

And in that instance, months of frustration and the watching of them..Brutalize this city and it's people, I had enough "No.." I said coldly "I'm no Imperial, I'm no Stormcloak. I understood what you fought for but..This?! Innocent families you...you killed! And now have the audacity to order these people to help you and dare accuse me as a Spy?! But that's what Nords do isn't it? Prey on the weak and trusting, Dominate, Snow elves, Others, Anything! Sovngarde is a place for Nord Heroes..But you, You and every other Goddamn soldier sicken me.."

I left without another word and he let me, perhaps I had made an impact but I didn't care, I left, Never wanting to see that god forsaken City again.
