Into Skyrim, Elder Scrolls 8 Nirn's Beta Chapter 33: Something wrong?

Sorex yelled, "Slowly! Slowly!"

I'll admit I wasn't the best at steering. We had crashed through so ice a few tis. However I managed to make it to the Solitude docks easily enough. Viree at so point got sea sick and started vomiting off the side.

I really didn't think the waves were that bad. Sorex called out, "Close enough! I'm dropping the anchor!"

Once we docked Viree ran off the ship and Sorex stumbled after her. I felt my own legs were a little wobbly. I smiled, "Hey guys!"

On the dock Captain Aldis shook his head. "Alright, I'm scared to ask." He was looking at Sorex and Viree. I shrugged, not really understanding either.

Sorex responded, "Vek should NEVER Drive anything! I have never felt so sick in my life!"

I watched as Corpulus walk down the docks and whistle. "You know I expected sothing, but not this."

Sorex looked at his father, I knew he had questions for him. However Captain Aldis looked at , and asked. "How do you manage to do these things?"

I smiled, "Manage what?"

He sighed, "Who's na is this being registered under?"

Sorex was the one to give a proper answer. "It will be under mine, I'll do all the paper work."

Corpulus gave a small chuckle. "You know I wanted you to get so experiences like I did. However I never expected you to bring the damn ship back."

Sorex laughed, "I find it ridiculous you were ever a pirate."

That gave Captain Aldis a laugh too. "Ha! I rember when the sailors found him stranded at sea! They were so shocked to find soone from the Dead Man's Dread Pirate gang."

Corpulus chuckled, "We weren't that much of a threat. We just had a bad reputation due to the size of our crew."

Captain Aldis nodded, "The black bloods were far worse. The Dead Man's Dread hardly caused any deaths. In fact I rember reports of them saving stranded sailors and adding them to their ranks."

Viree looked at , "I'm gonna go get a drink."

I paused, "By the way, We have a ton of materials. Think I can use the city's forge?"

Captain Aldis shrugged, "Not really up to . You'd have to ask Beirand, he is the forge master. However he has been mostly occupied making imperial legion weapons and armor."

That was perfect, I needed to power level smithing to ebony level. I could also sell off so of the things from the Dead Man's Dread. At least I assu that's the na. I should also... Actually this would be a good ti to finally visit the Blue Palace. I could get the wabbajack, get the quest for wolf skull cave.

I rubbed my beard in thought and Corpulus patted my shoulder. "What are you thinking about?"

I smirked, "Money mostly."

He laughed, "Ha! Like a true business man. I have a proposition for you Vek."

I watched Sorex follow Captain Aldis to do the paper work for the ship. So I nodded, "What's up?"

Corpulus smiled, "Co on let's walk to the Inn. I can't leave the bar alone for too long."

I nodded and he continued, "So here is the deal. This little quest was a sort of test. I heard you wanted to make an information guild right?"

I nodded, so he went on. "Basically I want to renovate a portion of the Winking Skeever. If you help with the cash. You can run your business out of my business. What better location than a place where adventurers gather and rumors fly around?"

Ah, I could see where he was going with this. "I pitch in the gold, You will help run it while I'm away."

He smirked, "I want 25% of any profits, I figure so deals will be with pure trading of information. However any lasting profits I want 25% of. A fairly cheap price honestly, but here is the catch. I want you to help my son settle down. Find a wife of so kind, stuff like that. I went through the adventurous life and it nearly costed my own. I don't want him to fall into that sa near death experience. I've now tested you and honestly you shocked ."

He rubbed his chin, "To be honest I thought you guys would kill so ghosts, find so treasure and make your way back. If you ca back with the ship... I can only assu you managed to do sothing with the damn artifact."

It currently sat within my inventory. "I assu you only gave the mysterious note to Sorex because I gave you those Golden Atmoras?"

He nodded, "I figured he would ask you to tag along. Despite wanting adventure, I am glad he has a sense of realism about adventuring. So I did so thinking and here we are now."

I smirked, "Well, I certainly won't mind such a deal."

Corpulus laughed, "Fair warning, the gold we need... Is 100,000!"

I choked on my own spit, "Why so much?"

He chuckled, "New rooms, a basent, and a secondary office for the purposes of the Information guild. I figure we may also need so sort of library to store any written information down. All that costs a lot Vek." He smiled, A new building would cost just as much. Unless I wanted to buy Proudspire manor and run the guild out of that...

I sighed, "I'll get you the gold. Damn, swindler."

He laughed, but I added, "20% on the profit cut."

He started laughing even more.
