Halvar's Journal
Personal diary of a traveling farmhand

Came into town a few days ago looking for work. The folks here are nice enough, and there's plenty of wheat and potatoes needing to be harvested, so I've got a steady supply of coin coming in.

I don't think I'm going to need my old pack goat Hilda for much longer...all my bones are starting to creak, and my adventuring days are long over. Now I just need to find someone willing to take care of her. Maybe get a few coins for her too - there's strength in those old bones of hers yet.

Ah, how I'm going to miss wandering the wilds of Skyrim! I saw so many strange and wonderful things out there - pine trees as tall as mountains, old nord tombs, I once even stumbled across a wandering spirit made of pure ice!

Even ran across a few folks trying their hand at taming different types of creatures. Don't know why they'd want anything but a loyal dog or trusty goat like my Hilda though - some of them beasts out in the wild just aren't meant to be tamed.

Ran across an alchemist with a pet rabbit, and almost got robbed by a thief with a tame fox, but I suppose a rabbit or a fox could be docile enough. But that pickpocket trying to train a skeever must have been as mad as old Sheo'. And I don't want to think too hard about the vampire that almost made a meal out of me...could have sworn it had a trained frostbite spider! Gives me the shivers just thinking about it.
