''Ulfgar calls out to the Redguard. At first, the Redguard doesn't hear him, but after Ulfgar calls a second time, he turns over and sees him.''

''"Finally awake are you?" asks the Redguard. "I'll admit, I wasn't sure you were even alive when they dragged you in here."''

''"Who dragged me in here? Where are we?" asks Ulfgar.''

''"Welcome to Fort Hawkridge," responds the Redguard. "The place in Skyrim where the Thalmor send you when they want you to disappear. Even the Empire doesn't know it exists."''

''"The Thalmor?" asks Ulfgar in alarm.''

''"You must be one of the ones they brought in from Markarth," says the Redguard. "You're one of the lucky few that survived the attack, then. The way I hear it, the people of Markarth rebelled against the Thalmor installment. They even sent a few of the elves back to the Embassy tied up and covered in salmon paste. Well, the Thalmor didn't like that at all. And it wasn't long before they mustered a battalion of Battlemages to strike back. I hear they left Markarth in ruins. Most of the citizens fought back, but died. A few like you were taken prisoner. The Jarl is still alive, I think, but the Thalmor basically own Markarth now. Even more so than before."''

''Ulfgar listens to everything as best he can, but it just doesn't seem real some how. It's too much to take in.''

''"Why would they let me live?" asks Ulfgar.''

''"Experimentation, probably." answers the Redguard. "Fort Hawkridge is where the Thalmor get their live human test subjects from."''

''That sounds bad. Really bad.''
