NO! I go back to school tomorrow!

Oh well.

Here's the next chapter.

Enjoy!

Ustengrav.

Getting there was difficult, let me tell you that.

After spending the night in Ivarstead, we made our way back to Riften to catch a carriage. Thankfully we didn't have to spend another night in Riften. I don't know if I would of been able to kill any thief that snuck into my room.

The carriage ride took us to Morthal, in Hjaalmarch. When we looked around the small town, we could see that much of it was in ruins. But we didn't want to stay for very long, so we made our way towards the crypt.

When we got there, we could see that the crypt was underground.

That meant that there was no doubt that there would be draugr in there.

'Why is it underground?' Ronan asked as we walked down the steps to the crypt.

'Because we are in an open area,' Doria said. 'Burial chambers that are in open spaces are designed so that while they aren't visible from a distance, they have stones surrounding them to warn others of the potential danger,'

'That's why it looks different to Bleak Falls Barrow,' I added.

We got to the bottom of the steps. There was a door, but it looked different to the massive doors on Bleak Falls Barrow. There was just one door & it looked like the doors you see on the inside of the crypt.

'Ready?' I asked Ronan & Doria.

'As we'll ever be,' Ronan said.

As we entered the crypt, we heard fighting up ahead. All three of us dropped into a crouch. We slowly made our way from there.

When we got to the end of the dark corridor, (we would use torches, but since it could give us away, we don't. It would help I we could see in the dark like the Khajjit) there was a battle going on between two mages & a few draugr. We knew that there would be draugr, but mages?

Terrific.

The battle was over when the draugr killed the mages. Instantly, I drew my bow & fired 2 arrows, killing both of the draugr.

'Mages,' Ronan said in a low voice. 'Could this be any worse?'

Making our way through the crypt, we encountered a few more draugr & mages. They mainly fought each other & if we ever had to fight, it would usually be the draugr. Magic isn't as good as swords in combat.

But soon we realised that the horn could only be in one place: Further underground. That became apparent when we saw a door at the end of one of the rooms.

'This must lead to the last trial that Argneir was talking about,' I said, getting up.

'Do you want us to wait for you outside?' Doria asked.

'No,' I said. 'I'm not going in there alone. What if I die & you have to tell Argneir what happened? How would we stop the dragons then? I'd rather have someone coming with me,'

'She has a point,' Ronan said.

'Then let's get moving,' I said, opening the door. 'We have a horn to find,'

The door led to a massive underground room.

Which was filled with skeletons.

Undead Skeletons.

One we were done dealing with them (It took a while. There were a lot), we headed down onto the ground.

There were three pillars. There was a doorway opposite to them, with several iron doors.

'How do we get through?' Ronan asked.

I stood in the middle of the pillars. The doors opened.

'Well that was easy,' Ronan said.

Just as I stepped away to follow him through the doors, the gates closed on him.

'FUCK!' Ronan shouted. 'Dammit Sonia, why'd you step away?'

I ran back & stood in the middle of the pillars.

It worked.

'Sorry!' I apologised.

'Let me try,' Doria said.

The same thing happened again.

'What kind of fucked-up magic thing is this?!' Ronan shouted.

'Calm down, Ronan,' Doria said. 'There has to be a solution,'

'Do you see a solution?' Ronan said, turning his anger towards our shorter cousin.

As the two began to fight, I thought about the puzzle. There has to be a way for us all to go through once the doors where open.

If only we were fast enough...

Hang on...

After a few moments of thinking I had the answer.

'SHUT UP, BOTH OF YOU!' I shouted, stopping them from fighting.

'I think I've got the answer,' I said.

'What is it then?' Ronan said, trying to calm down.

'Move,' I said. They both moved out of the way.

Carefully, I got into position. As the doors opened, I drew my breath.

'WULD!'

As I thought, I was moved forward through the doors & through to the other side. When I stopped moving, I saw that there was a lever. I pulled it & all the doors opened up permanently.

Ronan & Doria came through the doorway, both looking impressed.

'How did you figure it out?' Ronan asked, amazed.

'Argneir taught me 'Whirlwind Sprint' for a reason. He also said that there would be a trial. My guess is that was the trial,' I explained.

'Makes sense,' Ronan said.

'Now,' I said, drawing my bow. 'Let's go get that horn,'

Well, we found the horn.

NOT.

When we got to the room that the horn was supposed to be in, there was a note. It said:

Dragonborn-

I need to speak to you. Urgently.

Rent the attic room at the Sleeping Giant Inn in Riverwood, and I'll meet you.

-A friend

This friend better have a good explanation. Ronan said that if whoever it was didn't have the note, they would be in Sovngarde before their corpse even hit the ground.

Getting to Riverwood took a while, but when we finally made it there, we went to one location only.

The Sleeping Giant Inn.

Jorgal just happened to be in there. When he saw us he immediately walked up & started talking to us. While we did want to talk to him, it would have to wait. I said that we would stay the night at his house. That seemed to satisfy him.

I went up to the innkeeper, Delphine & asked for the attic room. She escorted all of us into her room, where she opened the cupboard, revealing a hidden room.

That's how we found out who the thief was.

The second we were in that room, Ronan drew his sword.

'Alright thief,' He said menacingly. 'You have 10 seconds to tell us where the horn is or you'll be dead before you hit the ground. SO WHERE IS IT?!'

'RONAN OAKBLADE!' I roared. 'FOR TALOS' SAKE SHEATH YOUR SWORD BEFORE I PUT YOU IN THE GROUD!'

Ronan reluctantly sheathed his sword & backed off.

'Sorry about that,' I apologised to Delphine. 'We've just had a very long past couple of days,'

'I see,' Delphine said. 'Here's the horn,' Delphine gave me the horn.

'But there's something else,' She said. 'I know that the dragons are returning, & I need help to destroy them. You all know who the Blades are don't you?'

After Delphine explained that she was a Blade, an ancient order who were formed to protect the emperor & destroy the dragons, we headed to Jorgal's for the night. After a good night's rest, we headed to High Hrothgar.

Argneir was impressed that we had the horn & had called all of the Greybeards for a ritual.

As they stood around me (Ronan & Doria were standing next to the wall) They spoke:

"Long has the Storm Crown Languished with no worthy brow to sit upon.

By our breath we bestow it now to you in the name of Kyne, in the name of Shor, and in the name of Atmora of old.

You are Ysmir now, the Dragon of the North. Hearken to it."

Even though I'm certain that it was in the Dragon Language, It came through as common tongue to me.

After the ritual, the Greybeards bid the three of us farewell.

'So where to next?' Ronan asked.

'We have to go meet up with Delphine remember,' Doria said.

'Where's that?' Ronan asked.

'Kynesgrove,' I said.

So, there you go. Unfortunately, school's starting up again, so I may not be able to update as often. Read & review. Chosen out.
