Saren eventually found his way to the front gate unscathed. He looked through the scarcely opened exit and noticed a small band of four Adventurers standing right outside within plain sight. Two were female Imperials, one was a male Khajiit and the fourth seemed Bretonic of heritage.

All four seemed both scared and intrigued by Pale Pass, only for Saren to emerge and spook them. One even raised his dagger and shouted for the stranger to step back, beleiving from his scars and armour to be a Bandit.

"Now, now, I'm not who you should be wary of." Saren spoke as he raised his hands mid-way into the air.

"Explain!" Shouted the armed adventurer.

"On the other side of this fortress are a band of... roughly four or five individuals who recently raided and Imperial Prison. They nearly caught me as well, but the prison's Argonian prisoners escaped and forced them into retreat. If you're thinking of entering Skyrim, lookout for a Nord named 'Bjorn'. He is known to mug travelers such as yourself."

Saren lowered his hands, approaching his new friends slowly on a peaceful stance.

"I'm sure Alimano, the Jarl of Riverwood, would reward you generously for their capture. However, I ask only that you spare a certain Argonian who does not to belong in their group. He offered to joing 'Bjorn' in exchange for his survival."

"Thanks for the advice, but... why should we trust you?" Asked one of the women.

"Because, from where I was born, the man with the large sword and expensive armour calls the shot. Now, if you will excuse me, I will attempt to run from them before they catch me, too. Careful if you enter Pale Pass." Saren finished as he left without looking back, grinning.

Let's keep them off my back a while longer.
