Dovahkiin (Discontinued)

Chapter Fourteen

We make our way to the back of the building and out into a courtyard. The ground is layered with snow. The four men stand in the snow, waiting for me to follow them.

When I join them, the one that was talking before says, "You have already mastered the word ro. Now, let's see if you can learn and master a new word. Master Borri here will teach you Wuld, which means Whirlwind, and is also the first word of the Whirlwind Sprint Shout.

One of the others looks at the ground and whispers, "Wuld" there is a soft bang and where he was looking is more markings.

"Wuld," I say to myself. I liked the word.

"Now, Master Borri will grant you the Knowledge needed to use this shout." Master Borri does the same poses Master Einarth did and a similar thing happens, but this time, I don't feel more powerful. I feel energized.

"Master Borri will now demonstrate the Whirlwind Sprint Shout." Master Borri turns and walks away from us about five feet. He looks into the distance and shouts "Wuld, Nah Kest!" Right as he said that, he flew forward at such a fast speed, I thought he had disappeared. I look to where he was looking and see him much further than he once was. He is now about 50 feet away.

"Wow, that's fast," I say shocked.

"Indeed. Now, it is your turn."

I look at the watchtower. I then shout "Wuld!" I fly forward so fast I almost hit the watchtower.

"Very good." The man says, walking over to me.

"Thank you," I say.

"If you don't mind, would you go on a quest for us?" He questions me.

"Of course. What do you want me to do?"

"I want you to retrieve The Horn of Jurgen Windcaller."

"Where can I find this horn?"

"Ustengrav. You can find it at Ustengrav." The man points in a direction. "You'll find it going that way."

"Thank you. I never got your name."

"Arngeir. Now, you should get going."

"Yes, I should." I turn around and run through the building and out the front doors. Emma was surprisingly still waiting there.

"There you are. What took you so long. And why wasn't I let in?" She almost yells.

"I'm sorry. You could've just walked in." I explain.

"I tried. The door was locked."

"Oh shit, really. I'm really sorry." I apologize.

"It's fine. Let's just get back to Whiterun." She turns to start down the mountain.

"Actually, the Greybeards wanted me to do something for them," I confess.

"Oh? What did they want you to do?"

"They wanted me to retrieve The Horn of Jurgen Windcaller from Ustengrav."

"Where's that?"

"I don't know. We can find it out." I smile.

"Yeah, or you could ask the Greybeards where Ustengrav is."

That's true. I'll be right back." I turn around and run up the stairs. Emma stands at the bottom of the stairs, shaking her head.
