"Well... That... Is kind of a long story."

Rowan dodged Manja's hand trying to go for his ears.

"Careful! They're very... eum sensitive."

He smiled like a kid who'd been caught stealing something. He really needed to tell what had happened.

The normer cleared his throat, because he had to start at the beginning of all this, which was him leaving.

"Well, after I went my own way..."

"I met up with a sea captain in Windhelm. he promised me a place to stay on his ship, if I worked for him."

"I was hungry... Tired... Lonely... I just couldn't refuse, I guess."

"For about six months I sailed the oceans of Tamriel with him... Saw lots of exotic places..." Rowan smiled.

"Quite amazing really... Hammerfell... Elseweyr... You name it."

"But... When the Empire declared war again, and we were right in the crossfire, things... got out of hand."

Rowan's smile quickly faded, he didn't want to mention in detail what had happened to the crew.

"I shipwrecked. And was the only one who survived. Well I thought I was going to die, die in a restless storm."

"But... I didn't. When I woke up I apparently had washed up on a beach on Summerset..."

Rowan cleared his throat a bit.
