The sun had long ago reached its highest point in the sky and was now making its slow deliberate move down toward the western mountain range of the Colovian Highlands. The White Gold Tower stood resolute in the late afternoon sunlight, mirrored in symmetry by its own reflection in the soothing waters of Niben Bay. Waves of flickering heat rose off of rocks and bare, scorched earth. Birds that had been singing earlier in the day now sank into a lull of heat induced drowsiness.
A lone figure moved slowly, almost painfully slowly through the thick underbrush. The Khajiit labouredly placed one foot in front of the other, head drooping down with its chin against its chest. Further inspection of this person would have revealed blood dripping down the back of the female's legs, her left arm hanging ineffectually at her side, blood running down it as well. This Khajiit traveler was also unusual in the color of her fur; white like the downy feathers of a dove spotted with silver along her back. And that was what she was called: Silver.
Haze rising from the ground gave to illusion of water everywhere around her but it was only when she actually stumbled into a small pond did she finally stop for a moment. She sank to her knees and drank her fill of the cool clean water. Then she set about the task of cleaning her grievous wounds.
She washed her arm first, cleaning the dried blood from around the opening of the wound then examining it for any foreign debris. She grimaced as she saw bone at the bottom of the wound. She pulled a tattered shirt out of her backpack and ripped it in two.
She wrapped one of the two long strips around her arm and tied it there. She then tried to wash the gapping hole in her side without getting too wet but just touching the wound caused her more pain then just leaving it alone so she reluctantly left it as it was and tied the other strip of cloth around her waist to stop the blood flow.
I definitely lost this fight, she thought to her self. Maybe this was my last fight…
In the midst of that last thought she drifted into unconsciousness.
