The Call of War

One cold day 100 years into the fourth era, all of Cyrodiil was overcome by a powerful snowstorm, no one knew where it had come from, but it was the imperial city that was hit hardest by the storm. Three people were caught in the storm near Chorrol. One was an imperial named James, another was a Breton named Adam, the last, a dark elf girl named Ryu. The three were lost and scared they would die, as none were prepared when the storm hit. This group was a group of adventurers that had just recently begun their questing. They were heading to an ayelid ruin they had heard of. By chance they encountered a woman that was battling a frost titan, at first they thought it was going to kill her, but she blasted it with a fire spell that killed it with one shot. She turned to them, even though it was the middle of the night and none of them had torches.

"Hello," she said to them while removing the beast's pelt and horns. "What are you doing out here at this lovely hour?"

"We were heading to an ayelid ruin, but this storm hit and we couldn't find the way." James answered, Embarrassed.

"I see, come with me to my home then, it is not far." With that, she muttered a few words under her breath, and they were all bathed in light. they all stood there surprised for a minute, till she turned to us and calmly said, with a hint of a smile in her voice, "you coming?"

They followed her for about fifteen minutes until we reached a castle. She turned to us and said, "Welcome to my home, Battlehorn Castle."

"You live in a castle?" Ryu asked, still in shock.

"Uh huh." She replied happily. "Now come on."

They all followed her inside and saw guards all around, armed and dangerous in full steel armor.

"So why are your guys adventuring now, when there's finally peace in this gods-forsaken empire?"

"We needed to earn money, and wanted to find out what was causing this storm."

"It was caused by Ra'jar most likely." She replied mildly.

"Ra'jar? Isn't that the archmage?" Adam asked, finally speaking up.

"Yup, he's a friend," She told them, "Albeit a pretty crazy one.

"Wait, didn't he help the champion?"

She smiled evilly, "you are correct, I did as well, actually. Want to hear the story?"

"You were a member of the champion's team?"

"…that's what I said right?"

"Ya"

"Good, what are your names?"

"J-James"

"A-adam"

"Names Ryu, Yours?"

"…Cassandra, nice to meet you."

"So you're going to tell the tale of the champion?" Ryu asked

"Better, I'm going to tell you in the champions own words and the words of his companions, including myself, the war of the Dragonfires"

"How do you remember the words they spoke?"

"I have a good memory, that and a journal we all recorded our adventures in after the war."

"Most of the team is still alive, but what of the champion? Does he still live?" Adam asked

"…why do you want to know?" Cassandra asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I cannot tell you." Adam responded.

"Hmm, okay here's a deal, I will only tell you the story if you tell me why you want to know so much about him."

"I don't tell you till the end of the story, Deal?"

"…Deal"

With that, she began the tale of the war that became known as, "The War of the Dragonfires"
