There is only one soldier riding a horse behind the cart and I'm surprised the horse thief wouldn't try to escape the cart instead of waiting to get to Helgen when he realizes that Ulfric is in the cart with him, which he seems to know isn't a good sign, even begging for divine assistance. 3. If the horse thief must be killed, the impression of how capable the imperial soldiers are would be greater demonstrated if they kill him while he tries to escape from the cart. This would more strongly instill in the player that their character cannot escape their execution? Alternatively, increasing the escort security by: 4. Adding guard dog escorts or more mounted soldiers. Otherwise, while I can imagine that the player character is "supposed" to be sore from being roughed up and knocked unconscious, and fairly certain that they have no reason to think they will be executed in the near future: 5. It's only frustrating since I can think of such an action for the horse thief as being an appropriate risk for him, by removing the character lock during the opening scene gives the option to try to escape either for myself or with the horse thief and increases the odds of escape. I see now these are likely only thoughts for Bethesda, but I wanted to post them anyway. Edited November 27, 2021 by anonymouselephant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
