My hope is to build a new home there that fits my expanding needs. She started to follow me from then on and after speaking to Tekla the new Steward I purchased land near the lake. This of course included a personal housecarl Rayya a Redguard. I told Dengeir what I had done and he awarded me with being Thane of Falkreath. I helped them harvest their crop and promised the priest I would look into recovering his journal. I went down to the priest of Arkay in the cemetery and at his direction helped the farmer and his wife who had just lost a child. I agreed and went to find some people to help. This was more of a formality as he told me that he felt he had been helped by me. He offered me a position of Thane if I would help his people. He also indicated that while he felt Ulfric was a Power hunger man, he would rather follow him than some Imperial emperor in Cyrodiil. My conversation with Dengeir indicated that he was doing well. Dengeir had made some changes as Tekla his former maid had been made Steward in place of the High Elf Nenya.
Our victory had put Dengeir back on the throne of Falkreath. Siddgeir had been placed in power when Dengeir had indicated he would side with the Stormcloaks. He had held the post before Jarl Siddgeir and is Siddgeir’s uncle.
After this I decided to visit the new Jarl of Falkreath – Dengeir of Stuhn. He agreed and gave me some fresh meat to attract the dog. He spoke of the dog he had seen on the road and I told him I would look for it but I insisted on being paid something in advance. If they could smith me something or let me use their forge to let me smith my own, so much the better. My only purposes for men, the more I think of it, is to either fight alongside me in the Stormcloak cause or die on my Blade. She said it like it was something I should want. I woke up this morning and as I was leaving the Dead Man’s Drink, the barmaid Narri made the remark that it wouldn’t take me too long to have men of the town wrapped around my finger.
