redemption
Chapter 1 The Begining of an end
A few months after the Dragonborn had slain Alduin
As the dragonborn adventures through out the land of skyrim he stumbles onto a forsworn camp. Thinking not to interfere he turned around, but a cry of help was heard in the camp. He then dashed towards the forsworn camp. As each footstep he took he began to see a woman strapped onto a wall ready to be sacrificed to the old gods the forsworn worshipped. As he approached the woman a forsworn stopped him saying "Halt traveler you have no buisness here... although you do look familiar..."his eyes widened in realization as he said
"wait a minute yo'ure the one who murdered our king Madanach!"
Then he shouted "EVERYONE! SEIZE HIM HE IS THE CURSED ONE!"
With that said everyone dropped what they were doing and proceeded to grab their weapons to kill "the cursed one" The dragonborn sighed as he said "I didnt want to do his" he then pulled out his twin dragonborn swords both enchanted. one was glowing red with fire while the other blue with slew every forsworn within his range and deflected ice spikes and lightning bolts from incoming forsworn rangers with his swords. It wasnt long until all the forsworn were then proceeded to undo the straps, the woman fell but he caught her before she hit the ground.
He then asked "are you alright miss?"
She replied saying"Im fine just a little weak those forsworn did a number on m-Ow!"
One of her wounds opened up and she was losing blood lucky for her, her savior knew restoration magic and healed her cut quickly. She then cleared her throat and said
"Thanks that feels a lot better and who do i owe my life to?" "My name is Caine, Caine Fenrir"
"Wait i've heard that name before... Wait! yo'ure the-" "Dragonborn? yes, yes i am"
"Well thanks for saving me. "
"He really does live up to the legend but i dont recall the legends saying he was this handsome- Wait what am i doing i barely know him"
she thought "Well Im just happy to save you,anyway what's your name?"
"My name is Anika Silver-blood"
"Oh well that explains much although i never heard your parents mention you"
A sad look came upon her face
"well my parents disowned me after aguring that we should make peace with the forsworn, they only see them as beasts waiting to be tamed or hunted, I even came here with food and supplies as a peace offering to the forsworn but they recognized my family's crest on my ring and accused me of poisoning the food and the rest is history"
"Wow she just wanted to make peace with the forsworn where others would just wanted them to be wiped out,And I can tell by the look of her eyes she still wants to make peace even after being tortured and almost sacrificed plus she still looks flawless wait what am i doing i barely know her..." he thought
~a few hours later~
They were traveling to falkreath to rest, although anika refused at first caine managed to persuade her but unfortunately they were a bit off schedule having encountered a bandit attack on the way they were forced to camp for the they huddled around the camp fire they were exchanging stories and telling jokes.
"so tell me, do you have family in skyrim?" anika asked
"well, no but I used to have a half-brother in cyrodill" caine replied
"oh really? Then how come you've never mention him in your stories?"
"well…" a look of sorrow came upon his face
"its okay… if you don't want to-" she was cut off
"no, no its alright, my half-brother was a lot like me albeit a few years younger but still… while I aspired to be a great warrior he wanted to be an assassin" he paused as he looked at the ground, he then continued " oh I remember how he'd try to contact the dark brotherhood every night. Although he failed every time. But he decided he'll just be his own assassin after many failed attempts in contacting the brotherhood."
"then what happened to him?" anika asked
"he disappeared, poof one day we were sharing rooms next day he was gone" caine continued
Anika then attempted to cheer him up "maybe he'll show up one day. Especially once he finds out his brother is the dragonborn"
Caine let out a small chuckle " maybe he will…"
The End
Author's Notes: this fic was an old one written by me in different account. The original although not much change is still there I wont tell u guys the title cause I just realized that the title of it gave my planned surprise away so if any of you has seen my old fic and can tell whats gonna happen pls do not spoil it in the reviews. Anyway… we all know where this relationship is going *wink wink* also I may or may not put abel back in the story either he will be in a flashback or will be an important key to advance the plot. Let me know in the reviews what you thought of this .
Characters:(OC)Caine Fenrir: Originally going to be called Caine dragon-blood but changed it because its too obvious he is the dragonborn so i changed it to fenrir which means wolf in norse.(this character has no relations with the biblical figure caine"
(OC)Anika Silver-blood: i always wondered why no one wanted to make peace with the forsworn, thus anika is created
abel vidar: caine's half- brother, he wanted to be an assassin then mysteriously disappeared, been missing ever since (no relation with the biblical figure abel I just named him able cuz it fitted with the name caine) (also originally going to be called abel fenir then switched to abel shadow-vein then changed it to abel vidnar,)
Madanach: King of forsworn, is encountered in the quest "no one escapes cidhna mine"can either join madanach to break out or kill him and steal his key in this case caine joined him but realized what would happen if he goes free and kills him.
