Found a pack of thalmor justicars wandering around. Figured, what the heck? Release this prisoner, why not. Proceed to slaughter thalmor, fun times! I received no bounty notice, so figured it was all good. Guess I was wrong! After some questing, head back to whiterun and what do I know but the guards come talking to me about my 1000 gold bounty. Obviously no matter what I do at this point they all come attack me.

Best part is, I can only go back 5 saves. Whee, time to reroll.

only a 1000 septim bounty?

Why not surrender?

they won't let me. no matter what I do, they just kill me.
