The Ebony Renegades (Skyrim)

chapter eight

( here's the song if you'd rather listen)

"Out of the mist of history
He'll come again
Sailing on ships across the sea
To a wounded Nation

Signs of a savior
Like fire on the water
It's what we prayed for
One of our own

Just wait
Though wide he may roam
Always
A hero comes home
He goes where no one has gone
But always
A hero comes home

Deep in the heart of darkness sparks
A dream of light
Surrounded by hopelessness
He finds the will to fight

There's no surrender
Always remember
It doesn't end here
We're not alone

Just wait
Though wide he may roam
Always
A hero comes home
He goes where no one has gone
But always
A hero comes home

And he will come back on the crimson tide
Dead or alive
And even though we know the bridge has burned
He will return
He will return

Just wait
Though wide he may roam
Always
A hero comes home
He knows of places unknown
Always
A hero comes home

Someday they'll carve in stone
"The hero comes home"

He goes and comes back alone
But always
A hero comes home

Just wait
Though wide he may roam
Always
A hero comes home"

Myra's beautiful, soothing voice had the patron's eyes dotted with tears as her voice held such emotion behind it to the point where once she had finished they were tossing flowers to her begging for an encore. " Sorry ladies and gentlemen I'm a little tired so I'm going to turn in, but it means the world that you enjoyed it so much, I hope to be able to sing for you again sometime." Myra spoke to the patrons as Ebon-shi paid for the bill as he said it was his treat this time, he looked to Severin and nodded to him as Severin had volunteered to host them for the night. Tully embraced his cousin into a tight hug before rubbing her back. " You sang in such a beautiful voice that it would make the gods jealous." Tully complemented Myra as the rest of the group agreed "All right let's get cleaned up I'll take you to my home and then we can rest for the night and then tomorrow we're off to cronvangr cave to retrieve Lianya's sword." Severin spoke as he got off to go wash off as the group respectfully cleaned up after themselves despite the mini-party they were having. After exiting the candelhearth hall they proceeded down the side stairs into a graveyard going up another set of stairs and taking a right passing more upper-class houses until they got to the one all the way in the back on the left Severin pulled a key out from his outfit and unlocked the door. " Welcome to my home comrades, please make yourselves comfortable oh and please don't kill my pet.'' Severin said softly as he held the door open so they could enter upon entering the modest Nordic Homestead of Hjerim upon entering on the left side of the room was a doorway that led into another small room to the left of the room was a long table with benches and shelves in the cubby holes to the right of the room with a table in the corner. Upon walking deeper into the house the room to the right appear to be a kitchen stoced with food items. " Wowie Severin you got yourself a pretty nice place. Who did you have to kill? Hahahaha!" Cried out Suvvan in his usual manic mood. " Believe it or not I got this house as a gift from the Jarl of Windhelm, for catching a murderer who killed someone in this very house." Severin said as the sound of eight legs crawling on the Upper Floor got closer. " Arachnia where is my eight-legged baby?" A medium-sized greenish spider came down the stairs and crawled over to Severin who crouched down to pet the eight-legged arachnid. " how is my baby doing this nice evening?" Severin cooed in an uncharacteristic manner for him as the spider, sure enough, placed its front two legs on his shoulders as if returning the hug. " Excuse me Severin but do you happen to have somewhere where I can start enchanting this loot we got?" Severin nodded to Asadelf and led her over into the small room on the ground floor and opened a cabinet that revealed a hidden room with an enchanting table and a brewing stand " Feel free to use whatever you find in here Asadelf." Severin said to the high elf who gave a grateful nod in return and got to work the rest of the group took off their bed rolls and Severin followed suit walking into the closet to grab two more bed rolls for Lianya and her brother. Coming back with a bedroll in each arm he carefully gave it to the two of them as they curled into the fur-lined sleeping sack. Severin smiled and went upstairs for a moment to put his share of the gold in his loot box passing the mannequins that held his mother's Mythic Dawn cultist robes along with two sets of dark brotherhood armor. Once he had everything put away and had his backpack cleared out of unnecessary baggage aside from a few vials of different poisons and his Primary Weapons he walked back to the armory room and retrieved possibly the last daedric crescent that existed from the oblivion crisis,

Then he went down and lay on the floor with the group. " Good night everyone, see you in the morning" Severin said as he leaned against the wall tucked in his bed roll as his spider pet crawled over and nestled down at his side.
