Daeo found himself wondering past Whiterun to a cave, called Whiterun Watch or something along those lines. He could the dude in front and then he came upon a curious old man.
The old man was blind and Daeo would have killed him to end his misery, till he saw the man had a dream to write a book. A book that is completely empty and has no words in it.
He found it humorous and will allow the blind mind to rot in the cave, to complete a book, while his nephew is dead and all the other bandits are gone.
