I was feeling really cocky yesterday and decided to enter a random Dwemer ruin just because I felt like fighting a Centurion. Instead I came across a Centurion Master. The thing was alot tougher than anything I had faced yet, but I was able to handle it. Upon my triumphant return to Whiterun, some random mage walked up to me in the city and issued a challenge. I thought to myself: "This filth dare challenge the Dragonborn" and told him that I wasn't interested. He said he wouldn't take no for an answer and proceeded to attack me right away. Furious at this piece of trash, I pulled out my sword to teach him a lesson. He immediately backed out of my reach and hit me with a shock blast. I was in awe by how much damage this nobody was doing to me that I didn't even try to use a health potion and went charging head first, only to drop dead before I even reached him. The game reloaded to a point just before the fight took place, but this mage is now nowhere to be found. So I am left with my ego bruised and no way to resolve my feelings until that damn bastard shows up again. I now live in fear of the random mage who may assault me once more.
