Lars Battle-Born

Lars Battle-Born is a Nord child of Alfhild and Idolaf Battle-Born living in Whiterun. He can be found walking around Whiterun or inside his family's home. He may also be seen around the city being bullied by another child named Braith. You can speak to him about it, and he will offer to reward you with his life savings if you can convince her to stop. If successful, he will thank you from then on, now that Braith will not bully him or even look him in the eye anymore.

Lars wears child's clothes and a pair of shoes. He carries a key to the clan's house, a key to the clan's farmhouse, a selection of food and toys, and a small amount of gold.

Your adopted boys may comment on him: "Lars is such a milk-drinker. He can't even stand up to a girl."

Dialogue[edit]

His greetings:

"I can't fight. Not even a little bit. My family thinks I'm a little milk drinker."
"My friend Olava? The seer? She says things will get better for me, once I start sticking up for myself."
"I don't know what you did, but Braith won't even look at me now! So thanks!" (heard after you convince Braith to leave him alone)

What does a kid do for fun around here?
"Well, I used to sneak out at night and try to tip over the big ox in the Gray-Manes' yard. And me and Mila used to climb up on the roof of Dragonsreach and look for birds' eggs. But I don't do that stuff anymore. Father keeps catching me and then I get in trouble."

Conversations[edit]

Bergritte suggests Lars go play outside:

Bergritte: Lars, dear, why don't you go outside and play? It's a beautiful day.
Lars: That's all right, grandmother. I like staying home with you.
Bergritte: It's that Braith girl again, isn't it? Has she been bothering you again? I've a mind to speak with her mother.
Lars: No! Please, grandmother, don't do that. I'm fine. Really. Can we just... not talk about this anymore?
Bergritte: All right, dear.

Lars "Braith. I.... I've come to tell you that I'm not afraid of you anymore." (none) (none)
Braith "Don't make me laugh, baby Battle-Born. You'll be afraid of me till the day I kill you." "Battle-Born! Give me your money!" "Oh look, it's little baby Battle-Born."
Lars "You... You're wrong! You can't hurt me anymore..." "I... I don't have any money." "Leave me alone, Braith..."
Braith "Oh no? So you're gonna fight back if I punch you? Huh? You're gonna hit a girl?" "You'd better give me five septims, right now, or I'm going to bloody your nose..." "What are you gonna do if I don't? Huh? Gonna cry to your papa?"
Lars "Well, no... I... I mean..." "No! Please! I really don't have any money, Braith! I'll give you ten septims tomorrow. Just don't hit me." "Just go away!"
Braith "That's what I thought. Now get out of my way, baby. I got things to do." "Ten septims tomorrow, baby Battle-Born. Or I'm gonna bloody your nose and your lip." (none)

Bullying Braith[edit]

Having trouble?
"Yes. Braith bullies me all the time. All the elders think I'm a milk drinker 'cause I can't fight. Nobody understands. If you can get Braith to leave me alone, I'll be your best friend... forever! I'll pay you, too! My whole life's savings - two septims!"
Grow a backbone, kid.
"Oh, okay. I didn't think you'd help me. Nobody ever does."
I'll talk to this girl.
"Oh, good. She'll listen to you, I just know it."

A Matter of Pride[edit]

I heard your dad gave you a very old, special amulet. Is that true?
"Ahh… yeah."
I need it. Would you give it to me?
"Go away."
Option Dialogue
Hand over the amulet, or you won't like what comes next.

I was going to use it to find a magic sword. Isn't that exciting?

Would a few shiny septims change your mind?
