"The Winking Skeever.", Carden said it out loud, "Horrible name for a horrible place."

The renowned bard pushed the door open and manage to escape the falling droplets of rain which started to hit the ground as soon as he entered the Inn. Fortunately, for the halfgod, the tavern was so crowded that his entrance went unnoticed by the costumers.

Truth was that Carden hated Solitude with all his might. The city was home to the Bards College, a dreadful place where entitled creeps and rich wannabe bards attended in order to hone their pitiful skills. The bard found it funny that the last time he visited the Capital of Skyrim, the people of the College attempted to ruin his reputation with all sorts of ridiculous schemes.

"Heh.", Carden remembered chuckled when he remembered one particular scheme which envolved two of the College's students who were supposed to put laxative in his food and leave him naked outside the lodge. It was an awful idea of the headmaster to supervise the trick, since he was the one who ended up emptying his bowels on the streets of Solitude while Carden had some fun in his room with the two pretty lasses.

"A mug of mead, friend.", he placed a golden coin over the counter and signaled the Innkeeper.

"Wait, don't I know you, mr.?", Carden heard, coming from behind him after he took a seat by the counter.

He turned around to see an one-eyed man dressed in a large, brown coat and limping towards him. The bard decided to keep his mouth shut and turned back around just in time to grab the mug of mead he had ordered and wishfully thinking that the one-eyed man had mistaken him for someone.

"Hey, you!", he felt a large and heavy hand over his shoulder, trying to turn him around.

"What is it, sir? What could you possibly want?", he turned around, again just in the nick of time to see a hint of steel coming from within the man's coat.

Carden jumped aside, almost unable to dodge the strange man's dagger and ending up bottoms first on the ground. The one-eyed man jumped onto him, aiming the dagger at the bard's chest, but now Carden was already aware of his surroundings and managed to kick the one-eyed man's arm, making him drop the dagger. The duo soon saw themselves entangled in a battle of strength, one which the bard was clearly bound to lose...if he wasn't the son of the daedra of knowledge. Carden reached for his own dagger, hidden inside his right boot and it didn't took long until the one-eyed man was left struggling to hang onto his own life.

"Stupid assassin. Your predecessors were so much better...", the bard chuckled, pushing the large man off of himself and pulling his dagger from the man's jugular.

"You! Hey, you!", Carden heard once again.

"Oh, by the Gods, another one? That didn't worked out for your frie...", the bard turned around and stopped himself once he saw that 4 Solitude Guards had unsheathed their weapons and were charging towards him, furious.

"You are under arrest! Lay down your weapon!", he heard one of them say.
