Jorvarr genstured to the large dragon skeleton lying only a few yards away. 'That isn't very old. There aren't any skeletons left from when the dragons were last around, and they are sighted every day somewhere in Tamriel. They have returned; Alduin will consume this world, as he was born to do.

'Maybe you're right. Maybe humanity isn't worth saving... yet. But maybe that's because we all gave in after everything collapsed. We threw our hands in the air, and said "f*** it! everything's dying, there's no need to try and hold it all together". And so we descended into anarchy and chaos. What we need is hope, hope that we can reclaim our past glory. As long as Alduin and the dragons are still here, we are constantly reminded that everything is over. If we drive them back, then people will realise that it isn't all over.

'I know it sounds preposterous. Sometimes I myself wonder if it really is going to ever happen. Perhaps it never will. Perhaps we really are doomed to live out our meager lives and die, hoping that we don't have to live to see the World Eater bring everything to an end.'

He sighed. 'You know what, Roland? If you truly believe that we are doomed, then maybe you had best just take the sword and go. Right now, it would be foolish to fight. Most of us got out of here alive, we should be thankful and move on with our lives. We don't know how much more of them we have got left.'
