Chapter 7

"Where to first" Farkas asked. Just as I was about to answer I heard a scream. I ran to were I thought it came from but all I saw was a dead body with no clothes on apart from a bra and panties. It was slashed all over and some people were already standing around it.

"Who is it" I asked.

"its Susanna from Candle hearth Hall" a beggar called Silda replied. I talked to Calixo and Helgrid and they said that they saw her dead. I was looking at the body when I noticeda trail of blood going away from the body. I followed it and it took me to a old house called Hjerim. I went back to the guard who was watching over the body and he told me to speak to Jorlief. So me and Farkas went to the palace of King's and went inside. There was a big throne at the end of the room and on it sat a hot man but I didn't tell farkas I thought he was hot. Then I reconised him It was Ulfric stormcloak who was at Helgen! But I had more important stuff to attend too. I walked up to jorlief and asked him if I could help. "yes" he replied.

I went back outside to the coffin and the guard told me to speak to Helgrid In the hall of the Dead. So I went to the Hall of the dead and asked her about the corpse. She said the cuts were made by a knife used to prepare bodys. I thanked her and went outside to the market. I sawa lady wearing some fine clothes who was called Tova shatter Sheild and I asked her about Hjerm. She gave me the key and I went inside.

Inside was a lot of blood everywhere. I looked around until I found a wardrobe which was nailed to the wall. Farkas smashed through the back panel and we found a hidden room . There was a small altar and a lot of blood and bones everywhere. On the way out I picked up a leaflet and put it in my pocket.

Outside I went to speak to the guard who told me to speak to Viola Gordano. She wanted to come with me to look at hjerim. When we went back inside I noticed another pile of butcher leaflets on a shelf. Underneath was a black necklace with a blue skull onit which I put on. I showed viola and she said it belonged to wunferth the court wizard. I kept the necklace and we went to the palace of kIngs.

I went straight upstairs to see Wunferth and confront him. But he looked at the necklace and the notes and said that tonight there would be another murder! We rushed outside. The sun was going down and we headed to the market place. I saw Calixo speaking to a high Elf and suddenly he stabbed her! "Im going to kill you" I yelled as I charged at him. He turned around and ran. Me and farkas followed him back to hjerim. We went inside and he attacked us but I stabbed him in the heart before he could kill us. Farkas dragged him upstairs and we had a quick feed on his blood before we went back to speak to Jorlief. He thanked us and said I could keep the amulet. Me and farkas walked back outside and into candle hearth Hall where we asked for a room to sleep got one and went in. We made out again before we went to bed. However I waited for Farkas to go to sleep and then I left Candle hearth HAll because I wanted to speak to Arretino before morning.

I went to Arretino's house and waited to make sure noone was watching me. Then I picked the lock and crept inside. When I was inside I heard a weird chant. It said

"sweet mother sweetmother send your child to me. The sin of the unworthy must be baptisd in blood and fear,"

It was Arretino!
