"It happened so fast. One minute the dragon was there, the next it was gone. Everything was destroyed."

Dialogue[]
"There are dragons about, traveler. Be warned."
- I know. I was at Helgen. "Then you've seen them, too. We lost our home, our livestock... We barely have enough gold to get by."
- Here you go. (Give 5 gold) "Thank you, traveler. Be safe and don't forget to keep an eye on the sky."

Male Nord Farmer #2[]
Farmer is a Nord bandit who is leading his painted cow to a giant camp in an attempt to keep giants away from his property. He carries an iron dagger and wears standard farm clothes.
Dialogue[]
"I'd stay away if I were you."
- Why? "I'm on my way to a giant camp and I can't guarantee those beasts won't think you're part of the offering. Keep your distance and you shouldn't have anything to worry about."
- Good luck. "Thanks. You take care of yourself, now."
- Need any help? "I have everything under control. Thanks for offering."
- What are you offering to the giants? "The cow, of course. Others do it differently, but I've found that an annual offering usually keeps the giants away from our livestock. Some think it's superstition, but I believe it works. I've yet to have a giant kill any of my livestock."
- And the paint on the cow? "It's tradition. We mark the animal as a way to let the giants know we're giving it to them willingly. Sort of a peace offering."
- What's the paint on the cow for, again? "It's tradition. We mark the animal as a way to let the giants know we're giving it to them willingly. Sort of a peace offering."
- And the paint on the cow? "It's tradition. We mark the animal as a way to let the giants know we're giving it to them willingly. Sort of a peace offering."
"Either way this ends up, I'm headed to the inn."
If the cow is killed the farmer will say:
"My wife's going to kill me when I tell her we'll need to bring another cow."
