You were looking at the Argoninan with the letter in hand, you knew far to well who he was... he was part of the Dark Brotherhood. A group of Assassins who kill anyone for a bit of coin... it did't help either that you didn't really share there views about killing innocent people... it didn't help either that you just saved one of the members or since becoming the Dragonborn... Has kind have painted a big mark on your back with bandits and these guys... you were kind of lucky that you haven't pissed the Dark brotherhood off yet, but how will the Assassin act now...

Before you could say or do anything, the man throws you a small leather pouch and you catch it...

Y/N: "Whats this?"

???: My name is Veezara... and that's half of the bounty on this Bandit leaders head.

You open the coin case to find 300 gold pieces in it... you look at him surprised... 'This is not how the Dark Brotherhood operates...

Y/N: "Why?"

Veezara: "I like you... Take that as a compliment, since i barely like anyone now a days!" he said as he slowly moves over to the leader of the bandit's body and rummages through her pockets and pulls out a iron key... he see's your stare and smiles. "Your curious, aren't you?" he said putting the key in his pocket... "Well if you want to find out what the key opens... Follow me!"

With that he had already started walking off into the woods... while you were hesitant about following him, your curiosity got the better of you... for a few minutes you couldn't tell where you were going until you smelt the camp fire from before... Veezara quickly walks around a tree and there you see it, up above you on top of a hill was a few tents and a campfire smoldering... 

When you finally got to the top, you see the tracks of a caravan driving through here and a few spots of blood littered on the ground... if you had to guess there was another assassin besides Veezara... you pull out your sword and rest it on Veezara's shoulder...

Y/N: "I'm not a fool, when it comes to a battle... There was another Assassin's here, where is he!!!"

Veezara: "Yes there was another one however..." he points to the side and you see a man pinned to the tree with a stakes going through both his hands and chest... "He wasn't as lucky." You see his face he was clearly upset, he looks at the body with so much pain and regret...

Y/N:"Would you like some help, burying the dead?" he nodded

You put your blade back into it's sheath and walk over to the dead assassin, quickly pulling the stakes out of his body, you put the dead body on your shoulder and bring him closer to the fire as Veezara, rips apart a tent... dragging the material over to the dead body, he quickly disrobes the former assassin of his clothes and weapons the he  starts wrapping his fallen comrade in the cloth for a few seconds when he was finally done... You look down to see the body kind of looked a like a mummy except he's wrapped in animal hide instead of cloth...he pulls out a liquid from his belt and pours it over the body, then lights a torch in the fire and says a quick prayer then drops the torch on the body making it burst into flames... You looked at Veezara and then the dead body.... some people might find this strange, but in your original world you had read something about ancient Nord's bodies would be set on a boat and drift out on the river or lake and then the boat would be lit on fire as it travels down the river... they believed the dead will not go to Vallhala if they weren't given a proper send off...
