  Summary

  Helena Mercyward began life as a thief and assassin on the streets of the Imperial City, but she had never planned on staying that way. She made her way north, to the province of Skyrim, in hopes of a better future. Instead, she was captured by Imperial soldiers who mistook her for a rebel. As she awaits execution in the town of Helgen, a dragon appears in the sky and allows her to escape a certain doomed end.
