So our hero has battled the evil dragon to a standstill and run him off this mortal plane, at least for the moment.

We're hatching a plan to go after him, because...well, because heroes go after evil dragons. Pretty much the 'purpose in life' right there in the hero handbook.

Anyway, since he is a hero nothing will have it but he should pause to speak with every dragon he sees. Some older Nords taught him a new joke in dragon language, and it is really slaying them. Literally has them rolling on the ground.

As he is barreling across the plains of Whiterun his irst stop is some dragon who actually has a name. He introduces himself, but our hero is not really good with names. He just calls him 'bones' and packs him up to go.

Next stop is an anonymous blood dragon. Our hero calls him down with the dragonrend and whips out the dragonbane sword...and stops to chat with a passing thief, who gives him some boots to hold on to.

The final scene shows our hero inspecting the dragon's tonsils as the thief jogs out of sight.

Some days this hero gig just doesn't pay.

Who died?

Yes, I'm not too sure either!

Pretty sure it was the hero, and the hero got nommed by the dragon.

I think the Hero Died because the Shoes gave the Dragonborn a bad case of athletes foot and the Dragonborn did not pay attention to it and it got infected and then died when he gave the Dragon a tonsillectomy.

I'm pretty sure the hero got killed by a random thief after a dragon battle.

I think you've cracked it!

The dragon should have attacked the thief for interrupting them.

Unfortunately the dragon opted for killing the hero. He did throw the hero in the general direction of the thief though.

*looks at dragon*

Clever girl

This one has never seen anything that was more hilarious than that

the hero died? damn

I think it was obvious though.

Never fear...due to thousands of gold coins stuffed in a dead goat the gods have returned the hero to Throat of the World to try again.

Apparently it wasn't to the first couple people posting.

The hero died from a random encounter, because he couldn't escape the dialogue fast enough before the dragon made a snack of him.

Hope the boots were of value, otherwise... rofl.

Heck, I didn't have time to even see what the boots were.

He got a nice killcam to the face, I heard.

LOL...that's it! Blame the kill-cam!

Dude got bitten by a dragon. It could either be an amusing grab, shake, and toss, or a mundane slumping to the ground...but dead is dead so why not at least get a chuckle out of it?

I really love it when I'm fighting a crowd like a giant, two mammoths, a skeever and a mudcrab, and some idiot stops me cold to give me his stolen booty. If I survive, I always use the "He went that-a-way" option so I can watch HIM get croaked off instead of me...

at the smart dragon.

In my current game that thief guy seems to be bugged. I've run into him twice this playthrough (it's possible I reloaded for some reason after the first time, so that the game never counted that). Both times he had told me to "hold on to this" and given me - nothing.
