So, apparently, my next dead drop is under this here bridge.
A box? Really? You need a whole box for a slip of paper and some change?
That is ridiculous.
Anyway, I open the box, take the, and read my next assignment.
Wow, Lucien seems really excited about J' Ghasta's death. That's sort of out of character for him.
SUSPICIOUSLY SO
Anyway, I now have to murder some lady in a cave. WHAT FUN.
The cave she is hiding in is almost entirely flooded.
It's giving me flashbacks to that... incident... involving a certain kind of mammal that
should not have
ever been attacking me underwater.
I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN OVER THAT INCIDENT
Anyway, I mange to locate my next victim.
THERE IS A FIGHT!
I mange to disarm her and take her sword (which was apparently enchanted).
She, like most people, sucks at unarmed combat, so the fight is really easy from there.
It turns out she had a
much better sword with her all along.
She apparently just decided not to use it and try fisticuffs.
I can respect that, although she
probably should have thought a little bit harder about what she was doing before engaging in fisticuffs with Charlie Manhuge.
The sword she
did use didn't even have a good enchantment! All it does is damage the weapon of her opponent.
I DON'T EVEN USE WEAPONS!
Anyway, my next dead drop is located in a coffin next to the entrance to some fort ruins near a decomposing body and some skulls.
Pleasant.
Not only do I find a dead drop, I also find some guy's schedule.
I get the feeling that it will be relevant to my next assassination.
I now have to kill some merchant or something who knows ma
gic.
The dead drop seems to suggest using mead to paralyze him, but
that is the wimpy way to do it.
Luckily, thanks to the helpfulness of Queston, I don't even have to
look at that schedule. I can just follow the quest marker!
How convenient!
Anyway, I find him inside an inn in Skingrad.
Hopefully, I can provoke him into starting a fight.
Unfortunately, he refuses to talk to me.
No matter. There are... other ways... to provoke a fight.
For a "master" of destruction, he sure went down easily.
My next dead drop is located in a hollowed stump in the Imperial Market District.
So next I have to kill some nord guy in camp on a mountain.
I conveniently have the camp already located on my map, so I can just fast travel there.
I fast-travel, and the next thing I know a Nord is swinging a giant enchanted axe at me.
THERE IS A FI- eh you know what that's starting to get a bit overused.
For some reason, after I kill his dog, Martin stops attacking and just stands there.
I guess he just doesn't like dogs. Or maybe he
really likes dogs, so when I killed it he decided to stop taking part in the fight as protest.
Or something.
Anyway, the Nord dies as easily as the rest.
...You know, although leveling up in this game normally makes things harder, I think I've leveling to the point where things actually start getting
easier due to enemies reaching their max strength or something.
Which is nice.
For some reason, my next dead drop is located in an Ayleid ruin.
...I don't think I've ever actually been to one of these before...
I arrive at the ruins and start walking down the steps to enter.
Wait hold on what's that in the corner
Okay, now I
really start walking down the stairs to enter.
Ayleid ruins actually look really nice.
Nicer than any other ruins I've visited, anyway.
I soon come across an underwater locked door.
Behind this door I find the chest with my orders.
This means that whoever left these orders and placed them here went out of their way to lock the gate behind them as they left.
WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT
Once again, my next target is idiotic enough to pay the guards to not interfere with my murder attempt. I really don't get the logic of these guys. "Oh no! I think someone is planning to kill me! I know! I'll pay off the guards to not interfere so that they won't arrest the guy when he comes to kill me! That won't backfire in any obvious way!"
I head to Bravil between the hours of 1 and 6 A.M.
I charge into the city, ready for a battle.
If that elf wants a fight, then
by gods he'll get one!
GERONI-
-mo?
...He doesn't seem to be there...
Oh! It was 6
P.M to 1 A.M! I got the time wrong!
Haha! What a humorous although slightly embarrassing mistake!
I walk back outside the city and wait until the
correct time.
Okay, let's try this again...
THERE HE IS!
The picture is all blurry because he immediately shot me with an arrow.
His arrows nearly don't affect me at all. I simply walk towards him, absorbing his shots as if they were nothing.
Slowly getting closer and closer, as he shoots and shoots, unable to hold me back.
One of his shots
does end up paralyzing me for a short while, though.
It kind of ruins the badassery of the situation a bit, but not too much.
I continue walking forward. He desperately shoots arrows, hoping to stop that which he cannot stop.
Finally, I reach him.
And I end it.
Man, that was
so badass! Imagine what was going through his head then! Haha! I feel so awesome now!
Suddenly, I get a message about someone approaching behind me.
Now who could that be?
