I killed Anska...just to watch her die.

I'll try and get this without getting too...specific.

As a Dunmer Stormcloak Specialist I'm a bit chaotic. Right away, the Imperials were considered the enemy. Though it took a while to get in with the 'Cloaks, due to the Nord view of Elvenkind, I eventually realized we both wanted the same things.

Indeed, the only reason I kill dragons is 1. They tend to pick the fights and 2. I rather want to preserve the world for my own amusemant.

I thrive on the Daedric Quests, as we tend to see eye to eye on the way the world should work. I joined the DB as a way of honing my skills to bring misery to many. I joined the scum in Riften as a way of funding it.

But, I digress.

On with the story...

I was visiting a Ruin. Inside, I met a gal named Anska. Right away she began to annoy me. "Oh, poor me...I need a big, strong elf to help me get my scroll back." She reminded me of...oh, what was her name...Muiri? Moira? Yeah...Moira, from Fallout 3. The one that runs the general goods shop in Megaton.

Strike one.

Anywho...

Against my better judgement, I agreed to help her. Figured, at the very least she would draw attention away from me during any problematic battles I may get myself into. Always good to have the occasional human shield.

Well, it turns out Anska isn't a bad mage. Not too bright, though. Had no issue unleashing successive fireballs at an opponent standing a foot away from me. Needless to say, I took a lot of fire damage during our encounters.

Strike two.

Then there's the whole 'stealth' thing. The word didn't exist in her vocabulary. No sneaking...meaning my usual tactic of sneaking up on the baddies and being able to have two or three arrows into them before they even knew I was there was out the window. Not to mention the wall of spikes I damn near took to the head because watching me walk AROUND the pressure plate wasn't clue enough for her. On top of it all, if she was any more up my ass when I was in tight spots and narrow ledges, pushing me towards the edge, she'd be a novelty item sold in your local advlt store.

Strike three.

So, once our mission was done, and she got what she wanted and I got what I wanted...we said our goodbyes. She then turned and went to wander back through the ruin. I guess she felt at home with all those crypts.

What happened next just seemed to feel right.

I snuck up behind her, pulled out my dagger and dragged it across her annoying little throat. I left her corpse empty.

I left the ruin smiling.

Lol bravo. Does anyone know if she gives you another quest if you keep her alive with the scroll?

I would appreciate it if you wrote more adventurous tales such as this. I found it amusing.

I agree, she is freakin nuts with those fireballs. Throws them at everything. Pissed Lydia off once, so then those two were fighting eachother. She would stop when Lydia went down to one knee, Lydia would then fully recover and attack her again.

On occasion, friend...on occasion.

Though I do find it odd this was moved to the spoilers section. I didn't think there were any real spoilers present. In fact, I've seen far more revealing threads stick on the General board.

Ah, well...I'll just have to be more vague next time, I suppose...
