Quest for Glory
It was in the middle of Sun´s
High, a beautiful warm day, when I, Sephirim Isyahadan accepted a quest
from the King of Daggerfall. Not a common kind of job, he had heard
about a new sphere hole from Oblivion, and asked me, if I could take
a look at it. So I began my travel ... "Hello!" "What the heck?!" I drew
my sword and turned around. "No, it´s only me!" "Oh, Andel! You shocked
me!" "Sorry, Sephirim, I´ll take more care next time, I forgot that
you are so afraid of others." "Stupid High Elf! What do you do here?" I
asked him ironically. "I heard that you got a job, enough work for two?"
"Enough for both of us, lets go." "Where did you say the hole is?" "He
said it´s somewhere near the city of Tumbola." "We´re near,
right? I can feel the energy." "Only a few hundred feet left, then we should
arrive... I´ve heard something, listen..., it comes from the right,
it must be behind this hill." Andel and I went up that little hill and
couldn´t trust our eyes. About 30-50 Daedras were sitting around
a pentagram and they were shouting wild things. Perhaps it was some kind
of ritual. No matter what it was, our job was to take care of it, and because
these monsters didn´t like to speak,
we had to do it the old fashioned way. I turned my head to Andel,
he nodded. I put my hands in the air and collected astral energy. Then
I shouted and a lightningbolt shot out of my hands, direct on the group
of daedras. A lot of´em died, but the rest attacked us. I drew my
sword and Andel drew his daedric Long Bow. While screaming, I ran down
the hill . Andel had already started to shoot a hail of arrows. Holding
my sword with both hands I ran. A
daedra came towards me. When I came nearer, I saw it was a fire daedra.
I ducked, and fireballs shot over my head, I turned around,
and by holding my sword firm and swinging mightily with it I knocked his
head off. Andel had also runned down the hill and was fighting next to
me. "Eight more to go!" he shouted, when something magical hit him. Andel
fell to the ground, and two daedra lords moved towards him. I quickly ran
there and stopped before them. No reaction.
Then they started to laugh! "Ha, ha,
ha!" I said, when I stretched my right hand towards ´em and spoke
out my new spell called "Hell´s Fire" a mixture of Soul Trap
and some "burn special effects". Nothing, only dust. Silence. Nothing moved,
no sound. Then Andel Crodo said: "I don´t want to break this silence,
but would you please help me up?" I gave him my hand. "Wow! What a show!"
"Let´s get the payment for it, Sephirim." "Payment? Payment?! It
was just a quest for glory."
