I killed my second dragon last night...was hoping it would activate my second shout power (scares things away), but no dice. Finally made it to the top of the mountain to talk to the old-dudes, hopefully they'll have some answers.
I'm glad they flattened the power level out, I'm level 10 and by no means in position to destroy everything casually. Vampires and dragons and trolls require a bit of effort to kill. Still not quite getting the magic system, though, I prefer smashing things with a mace anyway.
I'm kind of disappointed in the house I bought, there doesn't seem to be a way to install an enchanting table. I'll presume I can get better houses later, but it's still a drag.
Anyone else have the huscarl girl following you around? She's been a great pack-mule, but it's weird nobody else has mentioned her, seems like she's an unavoidable consequence of the first quest.
