The Isol story

Post » Sun Sep 18, 2011 7:47 am

Chapter 4 (earlier chapters can be found in "were are you now" on this forum.

To Isol's surprise the temple of the one, was empty, not even a key hey could pickpocket there, what a disapointment, when one thinks it;s the ONE place that can hold back oblivion, one had expected valueble trasure to be looted there.. not sterile nothingness.

Well he still was not done in the imperial city after all it seems : well what to do? he decieded to catch that sneaky little woodelve from the coinpurse... in his thievery... while he was on it, he jumped a bit, cast some spells, to up some of his skils (needed to wait anyway...)

in this proces he'd entered a tomb and was attacked... a splendid change to up his block skil to 50 as well:! so he did.
after this he killed them both, and found his first -nearly complete- set of dwarven armour, wonderfull!
he dragged it to his cabbin, along with some rare enchanted items he found in there, and went back to the woodelve.. ready to kill...
only to find our he made aments... blasted! I mean the fella in anoying as hell, isol was really looking forward in killing him.
But we cannot kill someone who, makes aments like that... and the bribe of a neat ring that gives isol the countermeasure for his natural weakness to elements... (the one ring!) goes a long way.
Well ok, you little anoying woodelve, you may life, fare you well in your little littershop.
Back to jensines who handed me a meager 300 gold for all this... what tha??
No item? no enchanted Item? not even fame?? no new newspaper I can read about myself? nothing but 200 gold?
ARGGG isol went mad : while he could not kill her (she looks to good for that) he ripped her dress off of her and gave her a good spanking (she even seemed to like it)
some guard ran in... it seemed like he enjoyed what he saw cause he jumped right in to join the fun.
well Isol is not into THAT kind of threesomes, so he left the place, ran back to his shack and payd 20 coins to armand so he would not be into problems again.

ok, wonderfull now what? well Isol felt for a swim so he swam and swam and swam... till his skill in that was 50 to...
ok, Isol thinks am I NOW ready to go... ow wait some potions.. didn't collect all that food for nothing did I...
so isol grinded and grinded... till his alchemy skill was up to 50 (giving him better knowledge about his ingredients) WONDERFULL!

now what? Isol thinks... hmmzz more training? MORE? nah... better not!
we will train later more, isol thinks..

so he walks into his cabin, gearing up for his new mission, it has been a while but finally isol is ready to get out of town, he takes of him his feathered shoes (trows them in his backpack though, never know when he will need them) and places his black&burgandy outfit and jeweled amulet back into his closet.

looking at his neat gear collection he wonders, what shall he wear this trip?
so many new items, shall he put on his new never worn steel armour? or his newly aquired dwarven set?
no he knows... his light armour skill needs upping, so he will put on onother set :

He grabs the Kvatch cuirass (he just loves the look of it) he has got, takes some chainmail helmet and gloves. for pants he picks fur and for boots fur as well.
their armour rating at his current level was the same, and isol thinks it just looks better on him this way.
as a shield he picks a light iron shield (though he doupted a while if he should carry the kvatch shield instead, but that would be overdoing it)
what weapon? hmmzzz a silver mace looks nice, ok lets take that.
now the bow, fine steel bow, and 100 silver arrows yes, that feels about right.

slide in 3 repairhammers 1 torch 5 heal health and 2 heal fatique pots...
and isol is GOOD TO GO! geared up!

Isol decieded he will walk kvatch visit the trainer there, to up his merchantile skill, and than go back into oblivion, complete that one cave he skipped last time, and than remove the sigel stone.
seems like a fun and good trip, and since UESPWiki has a problem isol does not dare to do anything else.

At exactly 12.00 on Tirdas 6 Sun's Dusk 3E433 Isol steps out of the gate on his (stolen) horse and is on his way:)

chapter 5,

after a long 18 hour drive, Isol arrives at Gottshaw Inn, for his mercentile training 06.00 on Middas 7 Sun's Dusk 3E433

He things of the events of his trip :
*he was attacked by trolls 4 times, and by archer-goblins 5 times.. he killed all of them, and took some of their arrows, and some trollfat.
*he was attacked by wolves 3 times and 1 time by a bear, killed all of them, took their furs with him
*he was attacked by bandits 5 times, totaly 9 killed bandits... they carried very little of use, but one of them was carring a silver bow, that one was still missing in Isol's collection, so that he took.

Isol found out that stealing a horse can be done a lot more easy : first he lures a wolf or anything to attack him.. than runs off.
than a townguard on horse walks by steps of his horse to fight the wolf..
while he is busy, isol takes his horse!
free horse, thank you mr townguard!
Isol felt a little guilty, so he left some of the bandits food and some of their boots, along with 1 cheap wine bottle AND 1 spare torch, so the townguard would be well supplied on his long walk back to the city for a new horse;)

Arriving at the Gothshaw Inn he finds there are no horses there... meh! well Isol steps off his horse, opens the wooden gate... parks his imperial watch horse there, and closes the gate.
there now he wont be walking back to his boss now, good, very good:)
isol finds some bedroll ready for use as well but sleeping in horsepoo does not fits him, so he walks into the inn instead.

isol looks wow, nice place, this is how he always imagined his own house, small, yet romantic... not standard architecture..
he sees a warm fire and walks to it.. only to find a townguard near to it.. lucky for him he is only sipping his drink and greets isol friendly...
(isol hopes that guard will not walk off with his horse in the morning!)

Isol walks to the bartender, orders some drink, and some food and sit next to the watchman at the fire... sharing some stories with him.
after some while isol gets tired, so he walks back to the bartender for a proper room... 10 gold, isol does not feel like causing problems today, the wine makes him doozy, so he pays the 10 coins...
he walks up.. only to find he is given a room smaller than his own shack at the waterfront! what tha??!!!
than isol remembers he went here to learn to haggle better, so he walks down, counts 1000 gold on the counter to get some advise how to haggle from the bartender...
afterwards isol tries to implement this new skill by haggling for a better room, but the bartender does not offer one.. MEH!

ok : now isol goes outlaw again, he grabs his lockpicks and opens the other 2 rooms... the first is small like his and only has some clothing in it.. must be that townguards... he does not looked to wealthy heck he does not even wears his weapon, helmet or shield... anymore.. that skilled bartender must have haggled them off him.

next the other room : ah big, green silk sheets, and some better clothing in a chest.. must be the bartenders room... isol tries to sleep and to his surprise HE IS ABLE... normally one cannot sleep in sneaked in rooms, but now he can! splended,,, isol decieded to sleep in and take the room he wants..

he walks up and down the chairs 2 times and pays to get some extra merchantile training between levels..
at level 11, and +15 merchantile skill later he discovers he cannot level at this moment any further.

isol hops out the inn, grabs his horse and goes on his merry way to kvatch, with the intention to go into oblivion..
