Before The Storm

The sky is overcast, which means the sun is going to hate me about 75% less.
Who wants to go check out the city with me?

Alright, Ridley. Where the hell are you? This ain't funny.

What a strange world.... I could have sworn I saw someone who looked very much like me only a few moments ago. How did I even get here?

Pardon me, for I did not mean to be so rude. I am Caspian of Narnia. Any assistance would be most appreciated.

If this is some sort of kidnapping, I assure you it will fail. Or perhaps it's sorcery. In any event, I should like to speak to the leader and secure my release. I am needed back home as I am a Queen and my kingdom is in desperate need of me.

Is this another nightmare? Feels like a particularly terrifying one as I can't rouse myself awake from it. Is this it then? Have the Darkspawn began The Calling on me? Is this what it feels like to lose control?

I see we have more people arriving.
Some of you missed my visit yesterday to the manor.

I held a small council to let the beginning group of outlanders know where they were, and what things they could expect of this world.

To make it short,
1 ) Mind the roads in the wilderness. Not all our wildlife is docile. There are wolves, bears, and sabre cats that lurk along the roads. Wolves and bears are most common. Avoid the giants, they are territorial and protective of their mammoths.
2 ) I brought a collection of weapons this morning to choose from. If you don't have any, I'd suggest looking through what's available. That weapon may be the difference between your life or death. There are plenty people around who are willing to teach you if you've not any former combat training.
3 ) The closest city is Whiterun. There's two blacksmiths, a tavern, an apothecary, and a general goods store. Use the money found in your strongboxes to purchase items you might need.
4 ) Watch the skies, and be vigilant. There are dragons here. They know what they're doing but they're not likely to perceive any of you as a threat, so you should be safe. Key word, "should".
