I was headed North out of Iverstead on my way to have a new adventure and I came across a Necromancer who was very unhappy with my appearance on her ritual/scene thingy and attacked me.

I noticed some yummy alchemy components in a bowl on top of an old chicken coop and I took them to pay for repairs to my armor because that nutcase necromancer really packed a good couple hits in before I could take her down.

On removing the last item from the bowl three ghostly chickens appeared and went about their seemingly usual routine of pecking the ground and wandering aimlessly about. They can be killed, if I wanted to. I found that they were oddly compelling and so I left them where they were doing whatever it is that ghostly chickens do.

Have I inadvertantly set ghostly chicken haunting back on some poor farmer who hired the necromancer for help?

Am I the first to witness the resurrection of someone's prize chickens?

I'm unsure if I should be feeling responsibility or just wonder at the creativity of it all... Tamriel and particularly Skyrim are full of wonderous and sometimes thought provoking moments.

What moments made you go "huh? hmm... cool."

The moment i entered the Eldergleam Sanctuary....beatiful place that same area aswell it was smothered in fog that was a good visual. other than that the ghostly horseman near Whiterun...didnt know you could kill them but he seemed harmless so i followed him hoping i'd find some treasure sadly i've found nothing except a long run back to whiterun...heh.

Chances are those chickens will have been eaten/molested by a naked courier come sunset..
