I
was thinking that this would make a good easteregg book/skill book, I
only wrote it in 15mins, so its only a sample. plz if u like it give me
some other more lore friendly ideas to give a go 
now improved!!
'What is it?' cried the sentry,
alarm increasing, the timid bosmer crept slowly towards the encroaching
darkness of the forest, 'ok Thuron this isn-' he was suddenly cut off
by the rather poetic placement of the dagger in his jugular vein,
'rookies' sighed Shavar. There was a time when Murad would have
entrusted would have entrusted him with a greater task he thought.
But time goes on- the rustling of the bush saved his life. Lost in
nostalgia as he was, decades of training forced him to turn at the
noise as the hawk incisor flew past his face adding another scar to the
grizzled assassin’s mutilated face. really a work of art in its own
right, the hawk incisor was carefully fletched from only the finest
valenhawk feathers, expensive to be sure but well worth the price to
the seasoned marksman built for speed and accuracy using ancient
Elmwood and either a mithril or shadesteel tip forged in ironsap
residue it could cut through a boar at 50 paces, and masters had been
known to hit a speeding weretiger at three hundred paces.
As he threw himself to his right another arrow flew passed barely
missing his shrouded torso and tearing through his cloak, as a third
arrow, almost simultaneously passed his ear. He ducked behind a tree,
his usually keen kajitt senses stimulated by the rush of adrenaline saw
the harsh red glow of the arrowhead, by Alkosh
he thought. I’ve found him. His target, a master woodsman who had been
causing trouble for the Renrijra Krin, a lot of gold was made out of
the skooma trade. Enough it seemed, to hire not only an assassin but a
dark brotherhood silencer, 'I think I'm in trouble' he muttered as he
drew his short sword. 'Has the brotherhood fallen so?' mocked the
figure now disappeared into the forest.
Angered by this blatant
display of his mortality the usually Zen silencer screamed ‘Sithis will
feast on your soul!!’ infuriated now by this surprise attack, he began
finally to adjust to his situation. His mind racing, this one had
obviously waited for him to reveal himself, hunting the hunter. He had
even sacrificed a sentry to find him, not something your typical ranger
would do thought zavar, now that he thought about it he fought more
like-. His train of thought was interrupted by the Dark figure falling
from the tree above him, he flew to his right, the hunter missing him
only by an inch, to his dismay crashing into a bear of a Nord with a
battleaxe the size of a child, ‘SITHI-‘ Jorns axe thundered down with a
gratifying sound. Decapitating the helpless murderer. ‘thats one down'
sighed Jorn, wiping of the blood from his battleaxe, ‘don’t worry’
comforted his shrouded companion, we will eventually get the bastared
who killed him you know’ ‘aye lets hope so’ sighed Jorn. So it was that
Jorn and his companion, disheartened though they were, continued
through the forest. unfortuate really, that Jorn only just failed to
notice the glowing ebony dagger in his friends hand.

NOT rubbish, very very good actually.
Definitley action packed, do you have any plans to flesh out the story?
Might be a nice insight into Bosmer/Khajit relations if it is kept
factual.
Not sure about Glarthir and Grom being present and the former dying
when the player may of already killed him and Grom sitting in an Inn in
Bruma. Also not sure about weretigers and valenhawks though they are
interesting concepts that could be built upon.
Hope to see more mate!
