My name is Hadrik Oaken-Heart, and I am a proud Nord of Skyrim. And nine days since I rushed headlong into the night, always listening, but never looking back.īut in order to understand my current predicament, one must first understand where I came from, and just where this story began. Nine days since I strangled my captor with my own chains. Ashad Ibn Khaled, High Scribe, House of Quills, Hammerfell The events chronicled in this account are all true, were originally documented in a private journal (which now remains safely guarded in the House of Quills in Hammerfell) and occurred not more than a year before this book was printed. But make no mistake - this is not a work of fiction. Dearest reader: The work you are about to experience has been copied and duplicated, so that the story it relates can be spread throughout the Empire.
