"Arrow in the knee"

I wonder who wrote that now infamous line for the game. Did they have any inkling that it would become such a defining Skyrim moment? Even a meme?

I just the Gamejam video again and the music brought that line back into my head. Sorry about that :)

why do so many people say "TO the knee" when it is "IN the knee"

I used to be an adventurer like you... till I took an arrow to the knee.
Got to thinking, maybe I'm the dragonborn and I just don't know it yet.
Your like me eh, don't fancy those clunky two-handed weapons (when the guard has a two-handed weapon)

Was annoying after the first week. Now not only is it annoying but also grossly unoriginal.

Whoever wrote it probably didn't expect it to become a stock dialogue sentence for every guard in Skyrim.

I used to be a merchant like you, then I took a basket to the head.
