Journal of Vedave

As I was dragged off the prison ship, I noticed that one of the guards seemed nervous. He shook slightly under his Imperial armor. I saw him lift 3 fingers, in a way that the other guards could not see. Then, all hell broke loose.
10 assassins wearing black armor jumped out of the water onto the dock. One guard, who I assume was the one in charge, yelled, "Ambush!" The other guards drew their weapons, but the assassins slit their throats before they could do anything more. The guards that were dragging me dropped me and raised their weapons. They were soon killed as well. I ran for my life, through the open gate, into the town proper. It was a sadistic looking town, with clutter and bones laying on the ground. As I ran, the town guards ran to my aid. They managed to kill the assassins, who were almost on me. A couple of them helped me up, and I asked what had happened. One of the guards said that I had been targeted for an assassination. I do not know who wants me dead, but I do know that I will hunt them down. In the end, Vedave Relas will have the last laugh.

Few unprofessional notes...

1. It's a tad short.
2. I see no connection to TES
3. You use "they" a bit too much
4. Nice action scene :)

1.I'm gonna update it constantly.
2.It's practically a fan fic for a Morrowind mod I'm working on. You could tell that the "Imperial Armor meant Imperial Legion Armor, and the "black armor" on the assassins is the armor the Dark Brotherhood assassins use in Morrowind.
3.I'll find a different word than "they" then-if there is one.
4.Thanks :)

I believe that he meant it had no connection in that it is a sadistic, bone littered town, as there is not really a town in Morrowind that fits that description without mods.

I admit this one is not as well planned out as the last one:

I spent the night at the tradehouse. I told the Altmer owner, Arrille, my story, he was very nice to me, and let me stay in his sleeping quarters overnight. I barely got any sleep that night, thoughts about an assassin sneaking into my room ran through my mind, disturbing my thoughts. With every creak of the old building, I sprang awake looking for daggers in the shadows.When the morning came, I gratefully hurried downstairs to say my goodbyes to Arille But before I left, he ran up to me and gave me a rusty iron shortsword and some gold. I pocketed the gold and took the weapon with thanks. Then I went outside to find out exactly where I was. I confronted the guard that I had spoken to the previous night, and he told me I was in Seyda Neen, a small port town that had seen better times. I asked him what he meant and he simply said, "Look around". I looked, and realized what he was talking about. the town was a complete and utter wreck. Paper, plates, even food lying around. The buildings looked rugged, as if they had been through many storms. I asked him what happened, and he told me the story of Seyda Neen. "Seyda Neen used to be a great town with great people. That was beforethey came." I asked him whothey were, and he replied with a sigh, "The daedra" "Daedra?" I asked, "What daedra?" "See that cave entrance to the north?" He said. I looked and said yes. "That cave used to be a dungeon crawling with daedra, and a daedric shrine. "What shrine?" I asked. "Mehrunes Dagon's shrine" he said "The Prince Of Destruction."



DUN DUN DUN!!!

Either this is horrible or you are all speechless and can't put your emotions into words :P


I decided I wanted to investigate this cave myself. I drew my shortsword, took a deep breath, and entered. The first thing I observed was that there was a person, probably a bandit, facing a fire in a room below me. I decided to approach her slowly. As I got closer to her, I raised my sword, and stabbed her straight through the heart. I salvaged her dagger, and kept going, cautiously creeping in the shadows. Then I heard a sound that I knew all too well. As I turned, a bolt of lightning zapped me in the face. I felt... tingly, but I got right back up and charged the mage that had released the lightning bolt onto me. I swiftly decapitated him. I took a key from his body, then kept going down the way I had been going, until I came to a locked gate with slaves behind it. I unlocked it with the key, and unlocked the slaves' bracers. They thanked me, and took off. I couldn't blame them. I heard voices as I went down the corridor where the mage was. I figured that I couldn't sneak up on one without alerting the other, so I decided to separate them before striking. I picked up a rock, and threw it against the cave wall opposite to me. "What was that?" I heard. "Dunno. I'll go check it out." I crouched, shortsword at side, waiting for him to come. He rounded the corner and went right past me, somehow without seeing me. I sneaked up behind him and slit his throat. Then I just waited for the other bandit to get curious and go see what happened to his partner. He round the corner, and I swiftly took off his head.

I based lots of that off of things like Assassin's Creed and Thief.

As I continued deeper into the cave, I noticed that it was getting warmer. And, as I came to a stop at the rocky end of the cave, I looked to my right, and saw a slight crack in the stone. I crawled over and peered into the crack. What I saw was beyond disbelief. I saw daedra . Lot's of daedra. In a huge daedric room with a huge fire in the center. I assumed that was where the heat was coming from. Then... I saw a statue. I instantly recognized it. It was Mehrunes Dagon's statue. His shrine. I tried to find a way down, searching everywhere, until I gave up and sat down on a rock. The rock pushed into the ground and a slab of stone to the left opened. I stood there for a moment, not believing my dumb luck. Then I descended the stone stairs leading down. As I reached the bottom, I crouched. But daedra are not as easy to kill as bandits. I tried to use the separating technique I had used with the bandits. I threw a rock against the wall, and soon three daedra rounded the corner. They saw me immediately. I attacked one, which I assumed was a Golden Saint. I figured I'd be better off fighting her than the two dremora she was with. I tried to run her through the heart, but I couldn't pierce her armor with my iron shortsword. I needed something stronger and sharper. Something... daedric. But there were no daedric weapons lying around, so I dashed back up the stairs and hit the rock. The daedra were almost at the top when the stone slab closed in front of them. I heard a sound that was like sword on rock. And I assumed that's what it was. But I ran, past all the dead bandits, past the slave keep, back to that guard to tell him exactly what had happened.
