"I can't believe we survived that. After being immortal for so long I had forgotten what the fear of death felt like."
"You still could have died in battle, despite your increased strength and agility."
"Yes, but I never had such hard battles until I met you. How do you do it? How did you survive for so long just as you are?"
"I've found ingratiating myself to as many aedra, daedra, jarls, and leaders as possible is a good place to start. If enough powerful being want you around it becomes a bit harder to die between the boons and the equipment."
"Daedra too? You sold your soul?"
"I have yet to sell my soul, though I fear I've sold something much worse. I use my strength and ability for good as often as I can afford, but who am I to say who deserves what fate? And what of those who have done nothing that I cut down to get here?"
"Surely you've saved more innocent and killed more monsters than the other way around."
"I'd like to believe that, but were their lives worth it? Who am I to trade their lives for others? I'm just a man."
"You aren't just a man. You are dragonborn, and as long as I've been alive, that's meant something. You may have a troubled past, but just this morning I watched you play tag with the children. Yesterday you ventured into a beast filled lair to help an old woman find a trinket of her late husband's. These are not things someone cruel and heartless does. If you regret cutting someone down, continue to make sure their sacrifice was worth it. You can do that much."
"I suppose I should listen to my elders..."
"Hey!"
"You do look fantastic for your age."
"Flattery will get you nowhere with me, Dragonborn."
"That's not what you said last night."
"Shut it you, it's not to late for me to contract vampirism again."
"But you don't want that. You became human for a reason."
"You're right. Have fun explaining that to my mother when you fetch her."
"I'm sure she'll be thrilled."
