The blood-red sunset gradually fell towards the gray-blue mountains in the distance, and dusk began to fall on the whole land. The orange light www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion also dyes the gray houses made of these stones in warm tones. Smoke wafts from the chimneys that rise high outside the kitchen, and everything seems calm and peaceful, and this fortress built deep in the forest provides food and lodging for many passing travelers, so that they can get a short rest and protection in the tired, exciting, and dangerous adventure, so that they can live a peaceful life. Get ready for another adventure.

After drinking the last glass of Dragon's Breath from Ron at the Hunter's Tavern, Rex packed his bags and said goodbye to Ron before heading out. He took his mount back from the stablemaster Mazga Rag and paid him ten gold coins. Riding up the road, he found that the night had covered the entire fortress. The forest around the fortress stood like a devil with fangs and claws. The summer fireflies float like stars in the trees, and the insects in the grass on the ground make a "squeak" chirping, as if announcing the beginning of another life.

Rex rode his horse and walked some way to the exit of the fortress's walls. From a distance, he saw the soldiers of the guards walking around the gate with torches. They spotted him, and Captain Kelder yelled "Wait, who are you, what are you going to do in the dark?"

Rex didn't answer, but rode straight up to them. The captain shook his face in front of him by the light of the torch. Angrily said, "It's you again!"

Rex smiled slightly, "I'm sorry for the trouble. I don't flout the laws of the Empire, and I respect you. Because there is something important to do, it is now necessary to leave the fortress. ”

"Wait, let's make sure you're not suspicious. The captain said that he ordered two soldiers to search him at once, and until it was confirmed that he was not in any danger, the captain opened the gates of the fortress for him, and then walked over and said to Rex, "Remember to look at the sky when you walk at night, watch out for wild beasts and devils in the woods, go!"

Rex thanked the captain and rode away.

Behind him, Captain Kelder told his men, "I hope this fool doesn't cost his life, the forest in Skyrim isn't his cute little garden." ”

The soldiers let out a cold sneer.

He walked slowly along the main road, and after walking some distance, he looked back at the fortress, and found that the houses of the fortress had long been submerged in the darkness of night.

Suddenly, a white light flashed by the side of the road, and a shadow flew out of the dark woods and stopped in front of him.

"It's her!" Rex thought.

"Sorry, I'm late!" Caterina panted as she stood in front of Shadowmare. In the faint light of the torches, the girl in front of him barely believed his eyes, and she was wearing a well-fitting white gauze light armor and a blue diamond-encrusted belt. The body is slender, the silhouette is clear and soft, and it is tall and tall like an aspen tree. The beauty is like the goddess of the moon, and she does not have the bloated appearance of the tavern singer at all, and she is heroic.

"Wow!" Rex couldn't help but admire, looking at her with a special interest.

"Wow what? is that weird?" asked Caterina mischievously.

"I compliment! As far as your appearance is concerned, you have made me understand what it means to be 'stunning', and I can't exaggerate to describe you as unearthly!"

Caterina giggled, bent over and said, "Don't be funny anywhere, I appreciate your compliments, but it's time for us to go." ”

"That's right, let's go now!"

Rex stretched out his left hand gentlemanly, and Caterina pressed his palm, and with a slight leap of her toes, she stepped on the horse's back with ease, and her movements were light and lively, like a nimble bird. Rex couldn't help but admire her for her quick movements, worthy of being a royal special assassin, and couldn't help but have a good impression of her in his heart. Caterina sat quietly behind him, looking a little reserved, not at all like the swaggering and energetic girl of yesterday.

The Shadow Nightmare carried the two of them and sped along the dark mountain path. The howling mountain breeze blew in their ears and disappeared into the dark forest behind them.

Two men rode in a north-westerly direction, and they walked for a night. At dawn, the two walked across a stone bridge to a small village at the foot of Mount Hrosga. From the road sign erected at the entrance of the village, it is known that this small village built by the river is called Stade.

Stade is located at the bottom of the valley of Hrosga, and the cold wind blows down from the top of the mountain, pours into the canyon below, flows through the canyon for some distance, and finally enters the entire village. The temperature here has always been kept low, and even in the hot summer months, the temperature here is not too high.

The village was quiet at dawn, the sky had not yet completely faded from the darkness of the night, and the inhabitants of Stede were still asleep. The two of them were walking on the road on horseback, and a cold wind blew, and they shivered in unison. Rex turned around and noticed that Caterina was a little pale. He took a black cloak from his bag and handed it to Katarina, who took it and wrapped herself in it. At the same time, he exclaimed, "This feeling is so comfortable!"

Suddenly, a strange woman's cry came from a dilapidated ruin, and the cry was very sad and terrifying. Intrigued, the two looked at each other and decided to go inside the ruins to investigate. They looked left and right, and finally saw the crying woman. The woman was covered in **** and was sitting in the corner with her hands and knees folded. She stopped crying when she saw someone walk in, whimpering and looking up at them.

"Who are you, and why are you crying here?" Rex asked.

"Oh, the Holy Spirit is above, and at last someone hears me. The woman said, "I am the wife of Stanna the blacksmith, and my name is Delphina." ”

"Hello, Delphina. Can you tell us what you're doing here?" asked Katerina.

"Am I trapped here?" said the woman, "please don't be afraid, now I am just a ghost, and my soul is trapped in this ruin, and there is no way to leave. ”

"So you're crying?" asked Rex.

"I cried because I missed my husband and I couldn't see him again. As soon as the sun comes out, I will be reduced to ashes. I am cursed and my soul has no rest. Delphine sighed, tightening her huddled body.

"Your husband, does he know that?" asked Rex.

"I don't think he knows, he thought I was missing. She said, "It's an abrupt idea, but I still want to ask you to help me, okay?"

"If you can tell your story, maybe we'll think about how we can help you, and if time permits, please tell us. Caterina said.

Delphine straightened her curled leg a little more until she felt comfortable. "It was a dark and silent night, and the stars and the moon were gone. The Imperial Guards in the village had to carry torches to patrol, and the mysterious man who came to visit me didn't carry any light sources, but it didn't matter, he learned a magic from a scroll, the Luminomy, which summons a light spirit. That cute little thing will surround him and light the way around him. I was alone that night, and my husband, Stanner, worked all day in his blacksmith shop to make a batch of weapons for the soldiers of the Empire. The mysterious man walked into my house silently, he was relatively silent, wearing a black cloak and mage robes. Hide yourself in the dark. Even though I had a lit candle in my living room, I couldn't see his face clearly. He told me in a very deep voice that he was a Silverwing Hunter stalking a werewolf who was adept at disguise and deception. ”

"Silverwing Hunter, I know the name. They are a group of bounties that hunt werewolves for a living, though they don't have many members. Rex said.

Delfina nodded, "That's right, he's one of them." I told my visitor that he hadn't seen any werewolves, and to my surprise, he returned the favor with a smile, though it was more of a sneer. In that deep voice, he said, 'When stalking a prey, the hunter must adapt to the habits of the prey, and must not be deceived by the appearances he sees. With that, he slowly took off the cloak from his head, letting the candlelight shine on his face, and he smiled. I was surprised, even shocked, to see the pale flesh, the dark hunger in his eternal eyes, and the familiar face. 'Pozik,' I shouted. 'I've found you at last, and you can't hide from me.' He said as he stabbed me with the silver knife in his hand. I fell down with a look of remorse and helplessness and regained my identity as a werewolf. Pozik took a scroll from his bosom, opened it and laid it on the ground, and began to chant words. The strange words in the scroll were like a net that finally wrapped my corpse and imprisoned my soul in place. When he left the house, he set fire to the bed and furniture in the room. ”

"Didn't your husband notice anything unusual that night?" asked Caterina.

"Yes, when he came back from the smithy the next day, all he saw was a burnt ruin. He wept bitterly over my corpse, but he couldn't see my soul. And I will never be able to meet him again, even in this form. Delfina pointed to herself.

At this time, the sun rising from the horizon selflessly sprinkled its bright light on the earth. As a ray of light shone through the ruins and into the ruins, Delphina's body began to become transparent little by little. She looked at them expectantly, "Please, go to Pozik, let him release my soul and let me rest in peace." She shouted.

"She's gone!" said Caterina.

"Yes, she's gone, but she'll be back in the evening. A smile tugged at the corner of Rex's mouth.
