"Pilton get up lad" Piltons father said kicking him awake
Pilton was young, in his 20's he is a determined fellow with a passion for magic. Being a imperial living with his father in Riften he reads constantly researching magic and how too control it
" Good morning father" Pilton said running his eyes
" morning son, get up you got fish too catch" Piltons father said getting cloths for his son
Piltons father was named Molvar, Molvar was a nice man and a good father...for the most part he was kind of strict and owned a fishery in Riften
Pilton puts on his fishing cloths and heads to the fishery on the way there he practices some of his magic skills casting a healing spell on himself
" mmmmm it feels so good"
" Watch the magic boy!" A guard shouting at Pilton
" it won't hurt anyone sir" Pilton explains
The ignorant guard tells Pilton that every piece of magic is dangerous and could kill anyone. The guard gives Pilton a warning and walks away
" milk drinker" Pilton mutters under his breath
Pilton eventually gets to the fishery ( the scaled bass) and gets too work
Piltons job is too well...fish, he has too fish for about 2 hours and whatever he catches goes towards his pay ( 20 septims a fish) he tries too read while fishing but is usually caught by his father. His father wants him too work at the fishery forever but Pilton wants to explore but his father won't let him
-The scaled bass 1:23 PM-
Pilton didn't get much sleep last night,he was testing out a magelight spell and that kept him up for hours
Pilton quickly falls asleep but his father sees him falls asleep
" dammit boy! You have too stay up" Molvar says kicking his son
" I'm not asleep ma'am" Pilton mutters tiredly
" Pilton if you ever want to take over the fishery you can't keep doing this" Said Molvar
" but father I don't want too take over a fishery I want to be a Mage" Pilton standing up for himself
" you want too be a magic wielder don't lie too me boy you want to help with the fishery"
" NO I DON'T! I want to be free I want to explore I want to-" Pilton is slapped by his father
Quickly realizing what he has done Molvar says he had that coming and it's his fault for it
Pilton just stands there no expression just...nothing
Molvar walks away and Pilton sits at the end of the dock and watches the water pass by
Pilton doesn't speck or think he just sits as the hours go by
After a while Pilton gets up and begins walks to his house at night
This was not a good night to be walking out alone
" ferra remember the plan" the vampire leader said
" yes,yes just kill and feed on the bodies" ferra replays
The group of vampires quickly get through the gates of Riften and start to slaughter the guard
Pilton notices this and starts too run. He tries to go to his house but a vampire was In His way he runs the other way not caring about his exhaustion he runs to the fishery
As he is running he looks behind himself too see if he is being chased still he is but...he sees a terrible sight
He sees his father being mauled by a death hound
A tear goes down Piltons eye and shouts out " I love you dad"
Pilton makes it to the docks of the fishery and is still being chased
" no where to go now meat don't resist it'll be quick" the vampire said
" get away from me you animal" Pilton voice cracks
" fine, I love a good fight"
The vampire lunges at Pilton with his sword
Pilton dodges the attack and almost falls into the water the vampire tried to kill Pilton again
At this moment Pilton remember a spell he learned oakflesh he quickly equips it and uses it. The vampires attack does not affect Pilton at all but they both fall into the river and the torrent carries them away
