A day in the life of a Guard in Skyrim:
"I need to ask you to stop. That...shouting...is making people nervous.
Wait... I know you,
The guards have been talking about you..
You're the one who kill all those Thalmor? You sure know how to pick your enemies..
By the gods, I dont know what to say.
I wonder how the Thalmor are feeling now that they've been taken down a notch.
You have vanquished a great evil from skyrim, You saved us all and our very souls.
I mean, The gods gave you two hands, and you use them both for your weapon. I can respect that.
I can handle the occasional drunk or bandit. I don't know about elves.. or dragons.
But if those Whiterun guards can take down a dragon, so can we.
We got a nickname for anyone who trifles with us guards here in Windhelm - Suicide.
Imagine... blowing up an entire town,
Damn dragons could swoop down at any time..
Watch the skies, traveller.
Woah, woah, woah!
You couldn't possibly be the Dragonborn of legend, could you?
I have a lot of respect for the Dovahkiin.
You wear the garb of a true nord hero, I salute you.
Got to thinkin'.. maybe I'm the Dovahkiin, and I Just don't know it yet.
My cousin is out fighting dragons, and what do I get? Guard duty.
I mostly deal with petty thievery and drunken brawls. Been too long since we've had a good bandit raid.
Although I used to be an adventurer like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee.
Now I'd be a lot warmer and a lot happier with a belly full of mead...
Psst...I know who you -really- are. Hail Sithis."
