Jeek of the River

Jeek of the River was one of captains of the Five Hundred Companions. He was a friend of legendary Ysgramor himself. It is said that him and his crew was among Ysgramor's personal favorites. He lived sometimes in late Merethic Era.

Jeek's longboat was Jorrvaskr, the same boat that is used as Mead Hall for Companions during events of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. He comanded a crew of twenty-two warriors.

Deeds
Jeek of the River and his crew split from the rest of the captains after the Circle of Captains was assembled. They went southwards towards the area that is later named Whiterun Hold.

It is said that they met many elves, but their numbers never faltered, so shrewd were they in battle, with minds as sharp as their blade.

Scout under Jeek's command, Jander the Tiny, came back with news about a strange monument of a bird whose eyes and beak were opened in flame. However, by the time there were no elves near, despite the vast plain that surrounded it. When elves captives were asked about the plain and the monument, they said that they knew nothing. The monument, that was later named Skyforge, had stood there long before Mer, so it was an object of fear among their people.

Jeek and his crew were not afraid of elven stories. So it was decided that the strange monument could be of use. The wast land around it was fit for harvest. And so began the labors, of Menro and Manwe, whose eager hands again laid to the Atmoran wood which had born them all across the sea. Their boat, Jorrvaskr, became their shelter.

Thus began the building of the Great City, circled by the running of the White River, as brought forth by these beloved of Ysgramor, yet but twenty-two of the glamorous Five Hundred Companions.
