Chronicles of the Five Companions 5 Content . Abnur Tharn , here . Collecting the Redguard from the Halls of Torment was a simple enough task , in the end . I find it curious that Sai Sahan was affected so by his experiences with the other members of the Companions . Though I find his tolerance of — and affection for — that hulking she - troll distasteful , it cannot be denied that his willpower throughout his imprisonment was nothing short of legendary . We now know where the Amulet of Kings resides . It is perhaps fitting that he returned it there . Sahan is better - read than I expected , but perhaps a bit too poetic . A clever and patriotic man of Imperial descent might have immediately thought of the ancient citadel of Sancre Tor and its association with Alessia and the covenant of the Divines . It is perhaps a great blessing that the Elven Mannimarco has no such love for Cyrodilic history . Sai Sahan is a curious individual . I have never considered the Redguards quite as contemptible as many Nibenese lords might , and I find him the most agreeable of the surviving Companions . He understands duty and dedication , serves those he knows to be his betters , and hones his craft with singular dedication . Despite his inability to resurrect a lost tradition — for the best , probably , given its supposed implication in the destruction of the Redguard homeland — Sai Sahan ' s abilities with a longsword are awe - inspiring . I recall a time during the war against the Longhouse Emperors when he rode at the head of a column of mercenary soldiers tasked by Varen to assist in the liberation of Leyawiin . It turned out that Leovic , scion of the Tagh Droiloch and then - emperor of the Imperial City , employed those mercenaries as double agents . When Sai came before the gates of Leyawiin with his " loyal " troops , they turned on him , hoping to deliver the severed head of Varen ' s legendary Dragonguard Commander to Emperor Leovic . Second - hand accounts of the citizens are often difficult to trust , but even if one takes simple peasant exaggeration into account , it is clear that Sai fought his way through two forces intent on separating his skull from his neck . When he returned to the rebellion base at Bruma weeks later , he did so with the scalps of eighty - six men and the news that Leyawiin had been freed . He ' s never really spoken of it to me , despite my pressuring . Varen , of course , did not pry — he used his own charisma and the overactive imaginations of the levies to spin a tale of glorious combat . One man against two armies . Sai Sahan , who single - handedly freed Leyawiin from Leovic ' s control . The truth , I suspect , is far more brutal and bloody . One does not saw the skin off of eighty - six skulls unless one is burdened with a great deal of suppressed anger and bloodlust . One man does not take on six hundred at once . I think it far more likely that the Redguard fought a brutal , running battle throughout the city for days , murdering commanders and guardsmen alike until the Reachmen and their mercenaries eventually quit the settlement . That is what makes Sai Sahan so dangerous . He does not look to be the sort who would remain hidden away in dark alleys and backstreets , surviving by eating garbage , butchering , one - by - one , men so savage that the only way to frighten them is to become a murderous , invisible ghost , haunting the shadows of an occupied city . And yet , that is precisely who he is , and what he has done .
