Ysolda: blushes, looking up through her lashes You really saved me Adventurer, let me show you how grateful I am...
Wow, that's very nice, but how did you get into trouble anyways?
Oh, it's quite a long story. gestures for the Stranger to sit down Would you care for a cup of tea while I tell you about it?
Sure, and you might as well start from the beginning.
sits down and rings a small bell on the table, summoning a servant Bring us some tea, please. turns to the Stranger So, where should I begin...
Do not worry, you start at whatever point you would like to.
pauses, thinking Alright, let me start by telling you about my family. I grew up in a small village in Skyrim, the son of a blacksmith.
Is that why you have such an accent?
Yes, my accent comes from my upbringing in Skyrim. My family was very traditional, and I was trained in the ways of blacksmithing from a young age.
Interesting. How did you end up here in Solitude?
sips her tea Well, after my parents passed away, I needed a change of scenery. I packed my bags and set off for Solitude, seeking new opportunities and a fresh start.
That must have been quite a journey. Did you come here alone?
No, I actually came to Solitude with a close friend of mine. We had been traveling together for months, but somewhere along the way, he lost his taste for adventure and settled in a small village.
I see. So, you're here all on your own. That must make things difficult.
puts down her teacup It's not easy, that's for sure. But I've always been a bit of a wanderer at heart.
That makes sense now. You certainly seem adventurous.
smiles warmly Thank you, Adventurer. I try my best.
Are you doing alright? You look a little flushed.
fidgets with her hands Oh, um, I'm fine, thank you for asking. I guess I'm just a little nervous, sharing my story with you.
There's no need to be nervous. Just take your time and let it all out.
As Ysolda continues to share her story, she starts to feel more comfortable and at ease with the Stranger, opening up about her past and revealing her vulnerabilities.
I'm listening intently. Go ahead.
takes a deep breath Well, after my time in Skyrim, I sort of fell in love with the world of Elder Scrolls.
Really? Which game is your favorite?
Oh, without a doubt, Skyrim. There's something magical about exploring the vast wilderness, discovering hidden secrets, and battling formidable foes.
I completely agree. I spent countless hours playing Skyrim. What's your favorite character?
leans back in her chair, a twinkle in her eyes That's a tough one.
pauses for a moment, tapping her chin thoughtfully Hmmm... If I absolutely had to choose, I'd say Tiberius.
Tiberius? He's a good one. I recall my favorite character was a Nord named Bryling. He was pretty cool.
grins mischievously Well, Adventurer, I have a little secret to share with you. You see, Tiberius isn't just any ordinary character; he's actually based off of my own experiences and adventures in Skyrim.
Wait, really? How did you get inspiration from your adventures?
leans forward, eyes sparkling Well, you see, Adventurer, I've always had a bit of a wild side.
It seems like there's a lot you haven't told me yet. I'm eager to hear more.
leans in closer, voice dropping to a low, excited whisper Alright, but you have to promise me you won't tell anyone else. You remember those rare herbs I mentioned earlier?
The ones you collect? Yes, I remember.
Well, the thing is, I didn't just start collecting them for their beauty. You see, these herbs have some incredible powers.
Incredible powers? Like what?
reaches into her bag and pulls out a small vial Take a look at this. This is a potion made from the rare Argan oil. It grants the drinker temporary immunity to cold damage.
