So there I was, in the back of an Imperial cart. I had been unconcious for hours. I had 3 blokes around me at the time.  According to the man oppiset me I was trying to cross the border and I ran into some Imperial ambush. I have no idea what happened I have no idea about anything anymore. I can only seem to remember my name and who the other man in the cart was. Ulfrick Stormcloak. The leader of the Stormcloak rebellion. This must mean he had been caught. Did this mean the end of the rebellion? There was also some other thief there was Rorikstead, however he was insignificant at this moment. The Imperial soldiers were telling us to shut up but we didn't. The theif and the stormcloak soldier oppiset me didn't seem to get along.. Nobody seemed to know where we were going. However we all knew Sovenguard awaited us at the end of this trip. As we reached the gates of the village we were to be beheaded at the theif started to pray to the nine divines. He pleaded the help of Akatosh, Kynareth, Dibella, Mara and the other divines. The Soldier oppiset me had his conspiracies about the Thalmor being involve. As I heard him accuse the Thalmors involvement a few more things came back to me. I was beginning to regain my memory. It's a shame I couldn't escape this place, I mean it would be nice to as my life feels quite unforfilled. If I ever do escape I will become an adventurer most probably. Explore all the old ruins in search of wealth and knowladge. I might even settle down with a family and buy a house. I might even build my own house. That's if I get out of here. Which is looking very unlikely. As we reached the end of the line a young boy was forced inside by his father. He was eager to watch the Imperial soldiers, however the father was right to hurry him inside. Things were about to get gruesome. We reached the end of the line. All the bits of my life I could remember began to race through my mind. I couldn't remember much of it though. I couldn't remember my parents, my birth, my childhood. I could only remember trying skooma for the first time. Boy that was a wild time. But still I had to except my fait and join my ancestors in Sovenguard. The theif pleaded for his life as we all shuffled off of the cart. The Imperials shew no mercy, this led the theif to run. As he ran he nearly made it but a steel arrow tore into his back slowly killing him as he screamed in agony. The Imperials told me to step forward. So I didn't lead the same fait as the theif I followed orders. The man asked me who I was. So I told him my name.

"I am Manorak and I am an Orc of Orisnium" I responded to his question.

Even though I was not on the list, according to the Imperials, they sent me to my death anyway. This made me feel hopeless and dead inside. I accepted my fait and went to the block. As I went I found out something about Ulfrick Stormcloak. He used some power called "the voice" to murder the "high king". I'd never heard of "the voice before".Suddenly a loud noise came from the sky. It was almost like a roar. Everybody looked up but nothing was there. Must of been nothing. As Ulfrick's lecture from General Tullius ended a priestess started preaching some rubbish about our souls and the eight divines. One of the stormcloak soldiers, a red headed man, had enough of it and ordered them to just hurry up and kill him. The Imperial captain kicked him onto the chopping block as he carried on moaning.

The man shouted "My ancestors are smiling at me Imperials! Can you say the same?"

Then as he finished his sentence the headmans axe went up.Then it came down and decapitated him in one clean shot. His head rolled into the basket. The crowd began to chant. There were plenty of mixed reactions. People cursed the stormcloaks while others praised the imperials. As they called me to the block that strange noise filled the sky again. This was freaky, but I was about to die anyway, so what did it matter? As I layed my head down onto the block I saw something in the sky.

Someone even screamed " What in Oblivion is that?!?"

To even mention Oblivion it had t o be something truely terrifying! Then I realised what it was. Everyone did. The headsman even fell over when it landed on the tower. It wasn't just anything ordinary. It was a dragon...
