Kynesgrove

[wepfhwepfhp]

So I decided to finally do the Main Quest and went to Kynesgrove, to kill a dragon with Delphine. When I was done, I went down the road back to Kynesgrove to mine some Malachite out of their mine. When suddenly a lot of people went out of the mine, and two of them, Gemma Uriel and Kjeld suddenly attacked me. I had no idea what made them aggresive, especially since it looked like they both were in the mine when I was fighting the dragon, and it was my first visit there. Anyway, I killed them, and went in the mine. There, Gemma's daughter, Ganna, started chasing me around, telling me to leave. She was annoying, so I killed her, too. Then, after mining all the Malachite out, I went out of the mine and was greeted by a courier. He had a letter for me, which was from a person named Tormir. He wrote that, by killing Kjeld, I made him a favor, and so I need to go to him to get a reward for help. Not that I know where he is, or who he is, but it looks like news spread quickly.

All of this happened in about 10 minutes.
Oh, Skyrim, one does not simply not love you.

Because you were stealing their ore?

As for word spreading quickly - that's all down to the chickens.

Probably a guard or someone jump in front of your swinging blade as you were hacking up the dragon. Every battle error is yours, regardles of whether the NPCs jumps on your sword or not. :D

You talk to them first, they state, if looking for work mine ore and they will buy it from you or you keep it.
Did you pick up ore/ingots near the smelter (that stealing)

I arrived at Kynesgrove, i went straight up the hill, ignoring everyone. I didn't steal anything or mine any ore before after the dragon was dead, and after they had attacked me.

There are no guards up there. I mean, there are a few in Kynesgrove, but I was fighting a dragon up the hill, and besides me, the dragon and Delphine there was nobody else.

Interesting fact - Delphine helped me take those two rebels down :)

I love when stuff like this happens.

if those are th only 2 that freaked out while the others didn't, what did they others do while this was going on? Kjeld has been known to go beserk getting himself killed.

btw, they are sisters not mother/daughter.

while those three share factions with the other town folks they are also part of the FavorJobsChopWoodFaction
it would be interesting to see if other members of this faction act similiar

they probably won't act different and this will most likely be a one time Skyrim thing. Now prepare yourself for the next weird thing to happen. it will happen eventually.

Actually, the guards and NPCs WILL come up to help and it is possible to miss them. It's also possibly to hit one with a stray arrow or spell.

The others just walked away, possibly screaming stuff like "Someone do something" and such, as they usually do when they see a fight.

Good to know

I am sure of that :) If nothing happened I would assume I'm not playing Skyrim anymore.

Well, as far as I know, all NPCs were inside the mine when I was fighting and went out when I walked by the mine. As for the guards I'm not sure, I didn't notice any.
What I did notice, however, is that when I used the shout on the dragon, I could see two more red dots on the compass, far away. But it was not in the direction of Kynesgrove, it was more towards Windhelm
Other than that, it was just a casual fight with a dragon on the open space
