Child Among Daedra
Final Chapter: The Dream... of Death
Two Ordinators were approaching Atro. Atro grabbed
one and threw him onto a rock. The other swung its mace
but missed, and Atro grabbed him by the neck, attempting
to choke the Ordinator. The other, still alive,grabbed his
dropped mace and tried to attack Atro, but Atro threw the
other Ordinator onto him. One cracked his neck and died.
The other, stunned, was crushed by a stomp to the head
from Atro.
He forgot about Eydis, who was laying down crying. Atro
ran to attend Eydis, the blightstorm ending. He made his
way home. On the way several cliff racers attacked him,
but it was nothing he couldn't handle. He took some racer
plumes and fed them to Eydis when they were home. They
went to sleep after eating.
This time, Atro had a dream. He was laying down, arms
and legs spread apart, in some pathway in the ashlands.
The world around him was dark green, he could barely
see. A nix-hound was sniffing him. He tried to get up and
push the hound away, but he couldnt. Then, he saw Eydis,
all grown up, in gold armor, triumphing over a Khajiit in full
black clothing, saying "You've always been a disappointment,
Chadok."
He woke up to see a nix-hound standing on him, biting
him. "AAAAAAARRRRRRR!" Eydis heard as she woke up.
Eydis screamed to see Atro laying, the fire leaving him. The
nix-hound, surprised, fled. Atro's last words were spoken in
Daedric, but Eydis could understand the words "go" and "be"
and "dream". Eydis assumed it meant "Go. Be whatever you
dream to be."
Eydis Fire-Eye headed towards Balmora, to be what she dreamed
to be, a member of the Fighters Guild.
NOTE: The character Chadok belongs to Yrizegle14, who let me
borrow his character.
