    So not only did they toss you down here with a honkin' big sword in hand, they also left a key which is both the literal key to your freedom and made of ruby just lying right there in your cell.

    I... I fear the Empire may need to invest some more in educating its dungeon builders and guards.

    After my little adventure with the rats I decided it was time to rest. This went well until, in typical Elder Scrolls fashion, I got a little popup box:

    arena23.jpeg

    As it turns out I was ambushed by two rats, fortunately they got demolished

    I tried resting again and then got the same message, I turned around expecting to see another rat...

    ...

    ...and instead saw a wizard who killed me so fast that I couldn't even take a screenshot

    what did I do to deserve such a death

    (at least I didn't have Tuberculosis anymore when I respawned )

    That chick looks like she has inbred little flipper hands or something, but I think it's meant to be flowing pieces of her cloak billowing in the wind.

    I'm guessing those Imperials have all sorts of money lying around. Damn Cyrodiil bastards

    Don't worry; I've respawned and tomorrow I'll give it another go (hopefully with less death?)

    I think this game is lying. It keeps saying I can rest when I cannot.

    arena25.jpeg

    Not much later, because I am SMART, I fall into the water.

    arena26.jpeg

    And am attacked by a goblin whilst in the water.

    arena27.jpeg

    He almost kills me. That's my health in green. (Not sure why the colors are reversed from most TES games... )

    I manage to climb out and do him in. Then I turned around and... STUFF!!

    arena29.jpeg

    ...which I cannot pick up, apparently.

    I run around killing goblins and rats and trying to find someplace to rest and heal. I am unsuccessful in this endeavor, but at SOME POINT, something happened!:

    arena30.jpeg



    I get four skill points which I dump into Endurance in the hopes that it can help me live longer.

    arena31.jpeg

    I immediately saved afterwards, which turned out to be a prudent choice because about five seconds later this guy showed up:



    And kicked my poor little Dunmer face in.
