When I first started playing Skyrim a while back I read a book I have been looking for since. I'm such of looking through every book jut to find it so now I'm asking you. The story was so good, it's part of a series. It's been a while so the details are a but cloudy. I'm just gonna say a few things that come to mind and maybe you might figure it out.

Brothers. Man sitting in tree looking in window and then falls. A theif. One man envied the other. Bag of gems or emeralds.

I know it's not much but maybe just maybe someone will figure it out. I'm not even sure if they were brothers maybe friends.
