Being the good guy just doesn't pay. When the old man wasn't looking, I snuck a few gold coins from the chests in his room and left.
Now most folk would never have returned to that small boring farm. But me, I milk every last gold coin out of every person I meet, and every building I pass. I returned to that small little house at evening. The farmer was not out in the field, and the door to the farm was locked. I picked the lock without losing a single lockpick and stepped inside. Lord behold the farmer stood infront of shouting some nonsense about the house being off limits. So, I did what any other intelligent man of Cyrodiil would do. I popped a silver arrow right between his eyes. You see, it's easier to steal from people when they're dead. They tend to be more cooperative.
That night I recieved a visit during my sleep. And so began my life as a member of the Dark Brotherhood...

The dark brotherhood is sweet. I got some cool new black light armor, and then a cool band that gives fortifys security and light armor and has some magic shield from my first assignment.
