It swooped in out of nowhere and laid waste to the village and the keep. Yes, a dragon! Big, black, as large as the towers of the keep itself. If it hadn't been for the dragon, I'd not even be here to write this down. Stormcloak rebels! Led by none other than Ulfric Stormcloak himself! Shor's bones, if only I had known sooner! The ambush, the captives in the cart with me. At least they let me keep my journal for now. I have no idea where they're taking us, but I've been stuffed into the back of a rickety old cart being pulled by an even more rickety looking old nag. I guess I wasn't as well hidden as I thought. A patrol found me camped under a rock outcropping on the edge of the volcanic marshes. I woke early this morning with an Imperial sword pressed to my neck. This could be the very thing I am seeking here in Skyrim, but crossing the border in the dead of night without passing through the checkpoints has turned out to be a very bad plan. If I'm not mistaken, someone they intend to ambush here. Unfortunately I can't get back to my camp now because the area has fille with Imperial patrols! So much for being discreet! I crossed the border near a small village called Helgen and made my way up to Darkwater Crossing. So long as there are no Imperial patrols to deal with. I should be able to make the crossing quietly enough during the night.

Probably for the first time since High King Torygg was killed. I've received word from my contacts in Skyrim. I'll send the other journal ahead with my supplies and the artifacts we recovered. I have one last task to perform before I do the same. The expedition is ending soon and everyone will be returning home. A lot of history has been lost here forever. I never realized how much of Cyrodiil I hadn't seen yet! So much diversity, yet so much destruction from the Great War. Hard to believe I filled up that whole journal already. The Dragonborn can retrieve it from the charred corpse of the adventurer, found in Helgen. Adventurer's Journal is a journal added by Live Another Life.
