Dialogue[edit]

They will tell you about their situation.

"Yeah, I lost my home. But hey, the priests keep telling me I still have my health."
"I heard the Dark Elf Ordinators are using the homeless to recharge their soul gems."
"Giants. Undead. Kyne's blood, what's next?"
"Don't suppose you've got a few coins to spare?"
"I don't mind sleeping on the ground. Don't even mind the bugs that much.
It's the rain that gets me. The rain's damn cold in Skyrim."
"Maybe we should move to Whiterun. We have family there."
"Maybe we should move to Markarth. We have family there."
"I watched our cow get kicked into the barn. She's just a stain on the wall now.
Heh. We'll never get that clean."
"I should just steal a horse and ride away. The worst they could do is kill me."
"They say the Temple of Mara is going to take us in."
"I was nearly stepped on. You ever smelled a giant's toes?"

Quest-Related Events[edit]

During the quest Centurion Andrin will suggest that you question some of the homeless to see if they saw anything:

I've heard rumors of undead in town. Have you seen any?
"Of course! All of us have, not that the damned soldiers will listen to us. The smell's how you know they're coming. Death and rotten fish."
Do you know where they're coming from?
"No, Shor take them. The soldiers won't do anything. They say we're making it up.
Wait. Do you smell something?"
Yes. It smells like… death.

A zombie will attack. Put it down then speak to them again:

"You found straw on that thing? We have a lot of farms around here. But … best place to find straw in Riften is at Guridda's stables. Head out the southeast gate, and go left. Can't miss it."
