Seryn wasn't the talking type, maybe one of the reasons why the collectors agent came to hire him for an extraordinarily well payed job. It didn't matter. So when one of the archers - an especially ugly example of the common bandit - asked him who he was, Seryn didn't answer. It wasn't necessary. They came at him, two at once. He had hoped to surprise them, but sadly they had noticed him. It didn't really matter. The ugly one was a bit faster, even a bit too fast. Seryn stood still, holding his sword with a defensive grip infront of him which caused the charging bandit to lower his weapon, in an obvious attempt to impale the dunmer with his short sword. A stupid strategy, which he would have payed for with his life, if it wasn't for the second bandit the dunmer had to worry about. Seryn waited until "[i]Ugly[/i]" could no longer stop, the dunmer made a swift step to the right - away from the bandits swordhand, a lesson one had to learn only once - but kept his left leg where it was, so that [i]Ugly [/i]stumbled over it. Seryn then gave him a slap to the back with his free hand, in order to motivate the bandit to bury his hideous face in the ground. He wouldn' be down long. The other bandit was already attacking with an overhead strike, he seemed to know that he only needed to buy time. Seryn blocked and made a step forward, closing the distance between the to of them. The bandit would technically be at an advantage with his shorter weapon, but Seryn had to be fast and the bandit didn't expect this sudden move. Up close the dunmer noticed that this one wasn't as ugly as his companion, but he smelled much worse. While "[i]Stinky[/i]" was still momentarily confused, Seryn pulled his knee up into the mans loins - not an honorable way to fight, but it didn't matter. [i]Stinky [/i]bent over with a painful expression on his face and Seryn broke his nose with an uppercut of his free hand, just to bring some distance between them. Whilst the bandit stumbled backwards, the two interlocked blades got free and the dunmer ended [i]Stinkys [/i]life with a simple stab through his throat. All this took not more than a few seconds, long enough however for [i]Ugly [/i]to get his beastly face up again. Spitting out dirt and ash he groweld as he stood back up to face the dunmer, who just killed his friend. Seryn turned as [i]Ugly [/i]already slashed his weapon wildly. They traded a few strikes and block, [i]Ugly [/i]using his weapon aggresively, Seryn keeping his distance. Ultimately the dunmer feinted a bad block and countered [i]Uglys [/i]overhead with a quick slash which left the bandit unarmed. He looked at the dunmer and yelled: "Who in Oblivi-". He was cut off by a sword through his heart. When the dunmer had climbed over Helgens wall, by first climbing a nearby tree, the bandits had outnumbered his - what he supposed to be - companions. Now as he turned around there was not much left of the bandits. If you didn't count the huge mass of man who just flung the heavy armored argonian several feet through the air. Seryn grabed a bow and three arrows of the two dead bodies he just produced. Hoping the rest of the group would create enough distraction for him to get into a better position.
