    When you've been in lots of fight like Gorth, you learn that to beat enemy good you have to make them really scared to die! But these vrykuls not afraid. You kill one and another comes... screaming louder and with a bigger weapon than the one before.

  • Baleheim Must Burn!Howling Fjord · Level 10-30

    Killing the Winterskorns maybe not enough. Maybe we burn their houses too! Uh... and their bridges. We should burn whole town to be safe! You take this torch. Go to Baleheim, to the west, and burn EVERYTHING! That teach them good.
