Simurgh_546
Legacy Name: Simurgh_546

A BOY BECOMES A WARRIOR...

Simurgh woke early this particular morning. His whole body ached from the strenuous training that he had been doing with his older brother, Talsgar. Since learning that he was the Dovahkiin, or Dragonborn, Talsgar had been away training hard with the Greybeards up at High Hrothgar, but now he had returned home to pass on what he had learned to his younger sibling. Talsgar knew that many warriors would be needed in order to rid Skyrim of Alduin's feared dragons and he was keen to see that his younger brother was afforded the best possible training.

Simurgh quickly washed, dressed and made his way out to the back of their home. The weather had been colder than usual, so he decided that what better way to work out the aches in his body than to chop some wood for the hearth. Before long he had a fairly decent-sized pile stacked up near the back door and was ready for a hearty breakfast. As he opened the back door the aroma of fresh, hot bread rolls wafted his way. His older sister, Rhysana, had been cooking while he was out and he couldn't wait to eat. Unfortunately, he would have to eat on the run as he heard Talsgar calling from up the road. Another dragon had been spotted on the road to Riverwood and the villagers were in desperate need of help. Simurgh quickly grabbed a couple of the fresh rolls, wrapped some cold mutton up in cloth and also grabbed a couple of pieces of fruit to share with his older brother. Both of his sisters and his other brother, Erandur, wished him a safe return as he quickly mounted his horse and headed off to catch up to Talsgar.

As they neared Riverwood, Simurgh was stunned by the size of the dragon. He hadn't actually seen one close-up before and he knew that now he was going to have to put every skill that his older brother had taught him to the test. He silently prayed to Akatosh for strength and endurance that he may survive his first battle against the dragons.
