Vilod

Vilod was a villager who resided in Helgen until Alduin attacked, where he was fatally wounded while assisting Imperial soldiers. His dying wish was for his family to be told that he fought bravely.

Ralof will mention him during the intro, wondering if he still makes a special type of mead with juniper berries mixed in. You can find several bottles of this mead in the second story of the ruined inn if you return to Helgen.
