On about the 20th time I rested for 24 hours, I woke up, expecting to repeat the process but instead, I get the message "You cannot sleep, when enemies are around" As I was about to scream at the game for being stupid yet again, I heard my housecarls un-sheath their swords and start getting pissed off. At this point I'm thinking "Holy Hell, my game has gone nuts", but I turn around to see 3 Bandits inside my house screaming obscenities at me, and coming at me with maces and swords raised. WTF?!
My zombies and housecarls ended up beating these bandits like abusive parents, while I sat by and watched in amazement. One ended up escaping the house the other 2, left their bodies in my house. And are still there.
This a bug? Or is it something I can expect to happen, once a month, like my woman's period?
PS I sent my other housecarl home after this incase bandits where in route to my real house in solitude, where I keep all my riches.
