[b][i]Fire Tests Gold[/i][/b] - A Skyrim Roleplay[/center]

[i]This next song goes out to the Dragonborn, the saviour of Skyrim.[/i]
[indent]On the 19th of Frostfall, 4E 203, the legend of old sung by the bards reached its fulfillment. Alduin, World Eater, had been slain by the Dragonborn. The people of Skyrim thought themselves free and saved from the scourge that threatened their existence. For a while, they had been right. For a month and a half, the Nord hero had been celebrated. For a month and a half, dragons had disappeared from the face of Nirn. For a month and a half, all seemed right in Skyrim.[/indent]

[i]Of betrayal and adversity.[/i]
[indent]The Rise of Dovhahsken was unprecedented, swift, and deadly. The morning of what became known throughout Skyrim as one of its darkest days, armies of dragons attacked each of the holds. At Whiterun, the body of the Dragonborn was slumped on the floor on a pool of his own blood and the knife that cut his throat in the hand of his dearest friend and ally, Starkad. Before the Jarl or any of his hirthfellows could apprehend the traitorous Nord, three dragons smashed through the roof of Dragonsreach and allowed Starkad a means to escape. Thus began the reign of Dovhahsken, he who had betrayed the Dovahkiin and could command the minds of all dragons. Those who attempted to fight back met his army of dragons and powerful mages and, consequently, their death.[/indent]

[i]Bellum in bellum.[/i]
[indent]Despite the threat of the Dovhahsken, there remains the conflict between the different factions in Skyrim. The flimsy truce between the Legion and the Stormcloaks shattered with the Dragonborn's death. Vampires continued to plague the night with the Dawnguard valiantly trying to hold them back. Only Solstheim seemed free from chaos after the Dragonborn defeated Miraak and freed them, but even then Solstheim remained inhospitable.[/indent]

[i]Amici probantur rebus adversis.[/i]
[indent]Amongst the chaos a group of individuals have banded together joined by a common cause. Legionnaire, Stormcloak, Nord, Dunmer, Vampire, Lycanthrope, Dawnguard... Those didn't matter. All that did was that they were willing to fight. For Skyrim. For Tamriel. For the Dovahkiin.[/indent]
