Despite being over a decade old, the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim continues to surprise players with previously undiscovered content. While some may argue that the game has been thoroughly explored by its dedicated fanbase, individual players still stumble upon new details and interactions.
A recent discovery shared on Reddit by user teddtoffee has shed light on a minor character named Hewnon Black-Skeever, a bandit found near Riften. The post reveals:
“When entering the Ratways in Riften for the first time, you’ll see two men scheming -but if you listen closely without getting caught, you’ll hear Hewson doesn’t WANT to do it! If I kill the elf that was with him first, he’s chill af.”
This revelation sparked interest among other players who were unaware of this interaction. Some users expressed surprise, noting that these characters usually attack on sight. The original poster clarified that sneaking around initially allows players to overhear the conversation without triggering hostility.
While this discovery may not be game-changing, it adds another layer of depth to Skyrim’s rich world and provides an exciting twist for players on their next playthrough. Given the long wait for The Elder Scrolls VI, many fans are likely to revisit Skyrim, making such discoveries all the more valuable.
The longevity of Skyrim’s appeal is further emphasized by the fact that the reveal trailer for The Elder Scrolls VI was released six years ago, with fans still eagerly awaiting more information on the next installment in the series.
