I figure I may as well do that little errand the Grey Prince wanted me to do, as the arena should be closing soon anyway.
HOLY CRAP that place is far away! I don't think it could be farther from my current postion!
...Then again... I still haven't visited most of the cities to the west... I do have some errands that need doing around that way, too...
It is decided, then. I spend the rest of the day at the arena, and then head west.
You can't hear him, obviously, but I just want to point out that he says all that in the STRANGEST way possible! He sounded like someone who starts laughing in the middle of telling a joke!
This is my next opponent. He is a dark elf, like me.
I manage to disarm him with a power attack. We finish the rest of the battle with fisticuffs, the REAL MAN'S way of fighting!
Haha! Take that! No one beats Charlie Manhuge in hand-to-hand combat!
Like all easy fights, killing that dark elf caused my rank to go up. Woohoo.
My next opponent has an enchanted dagger. I think it does frost damage, although I am not sure.
I still win, though.
My next opponent is a basic sword-and-shield fighter. How boring.
NO ONE can beat Charlie Manhuge, especially those that don't even have good gimmicks!
I begin to plan my journy westward. I will begin by heading west to Skingrad. I shall stop there for a little while, and then continue west. I figure I may as well stop at Kvatch to find the emperor's heir (after all, how hard could finding a guy be, right?). After tha minor distraction, I shall head to Anvil, and then to the ruins. I shall then head all the way back to the Imperial City.
My constant spell-spamming causes my illusion rank to go up! Now I can cast that enrage spell! YES!
I test it on a guard, but it doesn't seem to work. Odd. Maybe guards are immune or something.
I then test it on a nearby civilian, but it doesn't work on him either. Huh.
I realize what the problem was after checking my spell screen. You see, the problem was the spell only affects those level 18 and under. Plus, my spell effectiveness is only at 95%, meaning that, for me, it is slightly less than that. Guards are always ten levels above you, which explains why it didn't work on them. The civilian must have been naturally high-leveled.
It is only when I start a long jog that I momentarily regret wearing so much heavy armor.
I also find yet even more Nirnroot. Good thing I am heading to Skingrad so I can finally do something about all this stuff.
After checking the map, I notice I am nearby the Inn of Ill Omen. I decide that, since I am so close, I may as well stop by and murder Rufio or whoever it was that suspicious man wanted me to kill.
On the way there, I am attacked by some sort of tree spirit. It summons a bear at me.
THERE IS A FIGHT.
I manage to kill it, but just barely. Good thing I'm heading to inn.
So this is the Inn of Ill Omen, eh? Seems like a good place for a murder.
Now, where is this "Rufio" fellow? Is it that guy?
Apparently not. But at least I know he's here now.
I question the man about this "Rufio".
Despite knowing that Rufio is hiding from something, the Innkeeper tells me exactly where he is and how to find him. Remind me never to stay here if I am wanted by the guards again.
I also rent a room for when I am done. Murdering people can take a lot out of you. I should know.
I head down the trapdoor and find Rufio.
I decide to respond by telling him that yes, he has in fact done something. Even though I have no idea what it is he did.
He responds by flipping out and running away, even though I have no clue what he's talking about.
I chase him into the room next door.
He cowers in the corner, leaving himself wide open for a good sneak attack.
BAM! One-hit kill!
This assassin stuff is much easier than I expected! I think I like it!
I head upstairs and sleep in the room I rented, which, by the way, is the worst room I have ever payed for. This room isn't even worth ONE gold!
Weirdo McCreepyson shows up while I'm sleeping again. Apparently, by killing Rufio, I have become a member of the Dark Brotherhood. What fun!
Cheydinhal? Dammit, why can't it be Skingrad or Anvil? Now I have to choose which place to go first!
He then starts telling me about the "rules" I have to follow. Ugh. Don't people join criminal organizations to get away from things like rules?
Pretty much all of the tenats can be summed up as "DON'T MESS WITH THE BROTHERHOOD OR WE WILL FRICKIN KILL YOU UNDERSTAND"
HE GONE
Now I need to decide. Where to first: The westward towns, or Cheydinhal?

Darkbrotherhood is booty crushingly long, finish the arena first, IE go do the gray prince's shit.
Wait, do you want to actually fight him? Cause you do know that if you do it he won't fight you.

Well, I was going to go to Cheydinhal, but the people (well, two of them, at least) have spoken, so westard it is.
I come across another one of those strange alters, which gives me the "continue your penance" message like the other one.
I am attacked by a brown bear. It is BIG and TOUGH. It fight it for a little while, but it is a losing battle, so I retreat into a small pond.
However, the bear SWIMS after me! Are you kidding!? Why the hell does this bear hate me so much? Hell, why does every hostile creature in this game hate me so much that they will chase me to the ends of the earth to try and kill me!?
I finally manage to take the bear out, but only barely (pun not intended).
While I am still recovering from the bear fight, I am attacked by a Spriggon (one of those wood spirit things). I jump up onto a rock and wait there to try and heal myself.
Eventually, its summoned bear disappears and I am able to jump down and kill it.
I really wish I had decided to take the road rather than just the shortest route possible.
Luckily, I stumble across a bandit camp.
I eliminate the bandits and take a short nap.
A short while later, I come across ANOTHER bandit camp. I take out the bandits and take another short nap because, hey, why the hell not?
I level up again! I decide to upgrade my personality, for once, but only because that +5 is hard to resist.
Oh hell no another Spriggon.
I decide to just run away this time.
I come across another strange alter in the middle of nowhere. I get the same message again.
I finally arrive at Skingrad.
Skingrad is a failry large city that has incredibly thin streets, for some reason. I head into the nearby inn and get a room. Can't do much in the middle of the night like this.
The room is really nice, which is nice because I've been sleeping on crappy little bedrolls for the last few days now.
I discover the inn has a balcony that lets me easily jump to a different balcony, and then break in. I do exactly that.
There doesn't seem to be anyone around, which is nice. I'd rather I don't get another bounty.
Some nirnroot? Awesome, I never would have expected to find some here!
I head back out into the streets where some wood elf calls me over to him.
Well, now I know exactly where I won't be at midnight tonight!
While trying to get shopkeeper to like me so she pays more for my stuff, I achieve a whole new level of talking to people!
I head into the mage's guild and buy some more spells. I get a nice lightning spell, and a really powerful fire spell. I get some other spells too, but I can't remember them so they probably aren't important.
I also try to find the guy who knows about nirnroot. Apparently, he lives in the basement of this inn. I head down there and talk to him.
Like all good alchemists, he is amazing at pointing out the obvious.
Like all good NPCs, he has stupid little errand he wants me to do.
Like all good... uh...
Okay, I'm out of these jokes now. Sorry.
Wait, wait, wait, you want me to travel across the land looking for nirnroot, and then you are gonna make me PAY for the stuff when I'm finished!?
booty.
Anyway, I head into a nearby alchemy shop. When I'm finished robbing the place, I talk to the shopkeeper so I can sell some of my potions.
lolwut
I decide to answer her ...er... odd question and tell her that it is 500 gold.
lolwut X 10
...Well, that was incredibly awkward.
I was just about to leave Skingrad when I remember I still have that enrage spell to test out. I use it on the nearby stable worker.
The red glow means it's working!
He immediately attacks a guard, gets hit, and then retreats back into the stable-house-place.
I follow him in but he runs out again. I decide to try the spell again on the lady who sells the horses.
THERE IS A FIGHT.
She runs out and she is killed. I threw a spell just as a guard hit her, so it was hard to tell who dealt the finishing blow. However, the main point is she's dead and that guard doesn't care!
IT WORKS!
I try the spell on the stable worker again, and, instead of attacking the guard like last time, he just sort of walks up to the guard and keeps walking into him.
It's really weird.
Well, my work here is done. It's time to go to Kvatch!
