[wp] Your job is often overlooked, but that’s because nobody really know how hard being the courier in Skyrim is.

Now, as a courier, I have a tougher life than you'd think. I have to follow some crazy Nord hero across the coldest province in Tamriel.

There was this one time when I had to deliver a letter to him. It was a cold, windy day in the former capital. And might I mention that it was the bloody battle of Windhelm, and he was an Imperial Legate.

That doesn't even top the 2:00 AM delivery to him at a "lumber mill". I might not be a genius, but I still know a thing or two. Orange eyed lass, pale skin, always saying "Why don't you stay a while". I think not, acting like I don't know you're a vampire. Lucky I don't call the Dawnfuard on her.

So I survived a vampire, the most major battle of the civil war, and a few bandits here and there. Getting to the Graybeards, now come on. You might have a magical horse that can run up mountains... well I dont. Thousands of steps and a troll later and all I have to give you is a piece of paper that's some "Letter From A Friend".

They're talking about some weird ruins or another. Don't think I don't read your letters. The tragic loss of all seven of your wives is VEERRYY suspicious. "Inheritance" seems to be a consistent source of income for you.

Now aside from the constant colds, looming death, and terrible pay, I will always be there for you my friend. After all, I am the courier.
