(the track may end quite quickly, also there could be acouple of mistakes in there, i have read it through, but i may of missed some things.)

Not too far into the future…

Swiftly the hooded man gradually made his way north, clutching the bright orb in his rugged hands; he then put it in his satchel at his side, before looking ahead once more. He reckoned that he was now within the Jerall Mountains, seen as he had gone past Bruma not to long ago and he was heading northwards, therefore concluding that the he was now heading for the brisk lands of Skyrim. He had an old trusty wooden crossbow on his back as his only weapon; also he wore black armor with a black hood as well this helped him be quite stealthy in the darkness.

The man also appeared to be a Nord; this was clear as his moral started to rise as he neared his homeland. And with the view of the throat of the world now in front of him a slight boost of adrenaline increased the Nords speed as he moved onwards into the settling darkness. The magnificent and monstrous mountain that stood in clear sight of the Nord created a large shadow darkening the southern region of The Rift. As the sun began to dim and set, the hooded man moved onwards through and into the night not haltering nor slowing.

The Nord now started to descend the range of the Jerall Mountains progressing into The Rift, his black armor and hood blended into the darkness, making the Nord one with the shadows as he made his way past Archwind Point. And as the Nord proceeded northwards past the eerie ruins a loud and bellowing roar stopped the hooded figure in his tracks grabbing his attention. It appeared to be that a ravenous Cave Bear had missed its dinner the night before and it had put this passerby on its menu for an early breakfast. The Nord drew his crossbow and reached into his quiver to grab a bolt and to his displeasure it appeared to be empty, maybe he had forgotten to fill it up or maybe the bolts could of fallen out of the quiver upon when the Nord traveling over the Jerall Mountains. The Nord decided that there was no time to think upon this issue, for a savage beast was rounding and taunting the hooded figure. Not to his liking the Nord had no choice but to bare handedly take this bear on so forth he threw his crossbow to the side and waited for the creature to charge at him. The cave bear shimmered its piercing teeth as its rumbling growl gave unease to the Nord who quietly concentrated and waited raising his fists up to his chest, tension started to rise as the two creatures stared at each other waiting for battle to commence, and with its inpatient and angered attitude the bear gave one last loud roar before standing up on its hind legs thus dwarfing the nord, the bear then thudded back down onto the ground, causing the Nord to lose his balance, immediately the bear then furiously charged towards the Nord letting out all its rage. The hooded figure had a limited time to quickly hurl himself out the way of the great force propelling towards him, the nord then had but little time to dodge the instant swipe by the swift bears quick movements of its looming paw which only skimmed the ducking Nords head. Immediately the Cave bear then swiped its other forthcoming paw this time making extreme contact with the Nords stomach. The hooded man felt the claws of the bear rip into his stomach wounding him, the Nord then felt himself being repelled backwards by about 10 feet onto a small overhang, in which he landed upon his arm which nearly snapped in two, if his arm would have been less broad the bone may of broke, but the nord could only feel a small crack, so forth he forced himself back up onto his feet. The Nord could feel blood seeping out of the claw scratches on his stomach, also his lower rib cage had fractured upon the force of the paw impacting upon him, the Nord dreaded to think what another couple of swipes could do, eventually it would most certainly lead to death, therefore the Nord carefully and thoroughly concentrated on his target, which without rest was once again charging towards its prey. The Nord glared at the relentless look in its persistent eyes, an unforgiving beast this creature was. The bear aimlessly charged towards the Nord wielding its sharp teeth this time, the Nord side stepped to the left avoiding the snap of the bears thundering mouth, the hooded figure then quickly decided to upper cut the bear in-between its jaw and its throat, for it was now in a good striking position, unfortunately for the Nord he had to use his weaker left hand for his right arm was damaged, and as the Nord thrust his fist under the bears jaw it swiftly moved forwards meaning the nord got a better contact with the upper part of the bears throat, but this only resulted with a small jolt of the bears head on the Nords impact, only enraging the cave bear. The Nord then tried another punch, but he was to slow for the bear had already swiped at the Nord once more, but this time it was a weaker swipe only staggering the Nord backwards, as it made impact with his thigh. As the Nord regained his balance ready to dodge or strike again, the bear had surprised the Nord as its big arms swung around the back of the Nord, implanting its claws into the Nords back, the Nord felt the beasts claws sink into his back, causing an unexpectedly large amount of pain. Uncontrollably the Nord then felt himself being lifted off the ground as the bear, bear hugged the Nord, the hooded figure started to twist and kick trying to break free of the bears grasp, but this only resulted with the bear increasing its squeeze upon the Nord, causing the pressure upon the Nords body to increase, he tried to move his arms but they were trapped by the bears clutch. The nord let out a loud battle cry trying to fear the bear, but its power and rage was too large, thus the bear burrowed its teeth into the Nords shoulder, yanking and pulling at it. The Nord felt his shoulder being ripped away from its socket, as the bear increased the power of its bite and with one last cry the Nord used all his power to try and unbalance the bear which was still on its hind legs, luckily for the Nord the bear clumsily lost its footing falling backwards and unfortunately for both the Nord and the bear they tumbled and fell of the small overhang and down a large drop hurtling towards the ground. The bear lost its grip from the Nord as it fell and both foes dropped down the mountain side facing each other as they teared through the air. The bear roared at the Nord, with a look of extreme anger upon its harsh face, its large paws waved and its feet swayed as it increasingly picked up speed as it headed towards the ground, meanwhile the Nord closed his eyes as he calmly fell by the side of the screeching bear, he quietly imagined himself in a much calmer situation, as the wind ripped through his hair blowing his hood back and away, he folded his arms into his chest gradually anticipating his death…
