So I arrived home at Winstad Manor and all seemed calm. My steward Golldir was picking away at the little clay pit out front, when suddenly he stopped what he was doing and took out his axe. The battle music kicked in as a group of four bandits came charging over. Golldir put up a fight, but these bandits were unusually tough. Their archer had some lethal arrows and their leader was well protected in his full suit of Nordic armour and even I found myself struggling, downing potions before the next arrow or axe swing took my life, and trying not to swing too recklessly in case I killed my steward. no idea where Valdimar was during this whole struggle - it's supposed to be his job to protect Winstad manor.

Then I noticed three bulbous shapes lumbering towards us through the mist and I thought "Now WTF is happening?" One of the beasts slammed into the bandit chief and my enemies seemed just as surprised as I was as they were being rammed with tusks, angry bellowing sounds filling the air like an ancient sea monster that had been disturbed from its slumber and was in a very bad mood. The tide turned and Golldir and I were able to finish off what was left of our attackers, and after all the bandits lay dead at our feet, I stood my ground in case the horkers turned against me, but the beasts turned around and flopped right back towards their beach.

There may not always be a housecarl around when you need one, but I'm grateful for those horkers stepping in that day to lend a helpful flipper when my home was under attack. I was always nervous about those beasts sitting so close to Winstad because horkers don't always take kindly to travelers getting too close out in the wilds. Just goes to show if you're respectful to animals they'll be respectful to you. Didn't even have to use any animal allegiance powers to gain their support.

They were just being neighbourly!
Could just imagine the three horkers sitting at the beach minding their own business, when they hear the sounds of battle and they're like "what's all that racket?" "Them bandits trying to raid the blokes next door?" "come on lads. Let's go f#ck their sh!t up".

Yes but do you all want to know the most fearsome for in ALL OF SKYRIM?! THE MIGHTY FOX! One day I was randomly running around like a chicken with its head cut off, doing whatever I wanted. I found that Khajiit dude that has a bunch of lore behind him, didn't know that at the time, and tried to kill him, he didn't fight back just stood there and took it like a boss. That is when I felt the slightest nibbling on my ankle, j look back and see a fox looking quite angry at me and it ran towards me. Khajiit dude took this as his chance pulled out a dagger and knifed me, wasn't dead yet but right before I could down some potions the fox jumped at me and then I was dead.
