Lore
====
Domkavosh was ranked amongst the most powerful dragon priests, and
for dragons, power equaled truth. When man rebelled against the
dragons, he began to doubt this truth upon witnessing the mass
slaughters of men at the beginning of the Dragon War. Seeing such
blatant abuse of their power, he revolted against the dragons.
More specifically, he rebelled against the very dragon that granted
him the power in the first place, Alduin. Domkavosh confronted
Alduin, but despite his best efforts Alduin defeated him. Instead
of killing Domkavosh, Alduin imprisoned him forever mocking his feeble
rebellion. His name became forbidden and was lost to the ages except
for one small remenant etched upon his prison: "Domkavosh the Betrayer."

Story
=====
While adventuring through the mountains in your hunt for dragons
you see an unusual nordic ruin off in the distance. As you approach
this ruin its guardian awakens, the Shade of Alduin. As the guardian
begins its attack, a dragon priest also emerges from a coffin at the
center of the ruins. Instead of attacking you it begins firing off
waves of spells at the guardian. Team up with this dragon priest to
kill this fragment of Alduin, and question his intentions later. After the
Shade of Alduin is vanquished the dragon priest tells you of his past.
The only thing he "lives" for now is to kill dragons, will you take him
on your adventures to satisfy his lust for revenge?
