The story sets before the gameplay story and is written into it in later chapters. Some things has changed to fit my story, for your information. Is something obviously wrong, it is changed on purpose.
Rated M: :)
Oh, and Bethesda owns everything except the names I have created and the storyline before the actual 'gamestory'. Enjoy!
Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak stood in front of his throne, his back facing the main hall in the Palace of the Kings. He could hear footsteps coming from the shadows by the door.
As the stranger approached him faster and heavier, he could not help it but to react.
"Only the foolish or the courageous approach a Jarl without summons." he mumbled, thinking it maybe was another one of those unimportant couriers.
"Then I must be very foolish, or very courageous." a voice answered. Female, a Nord like himself. He froze, and his eyes opened widely. He tried to move, but he could not.
Galmar Stone-Fist, his second-in-command looked at him. "Jarl?"
He finally managed to turn around to see who interrupted him like that, but his sight was almost completely blurred. "I..." he stuttered. "You..."
He took a long break to come to his sences, rubbing his eyes to be able to see properly. "I thought you were dead."
Please read! To be sure that everyone gets the point, this is not the first chapter. This is just a flashback, chapter 1 comes after this.
