The Marksmanship Lesson

An Archery skill book: a cruel slave owner underestimates his Bosmer servant.

The Marksmanship Lesson by Alla Llaleth tells of Helmeril Brin, a harsh Dunmer slave owner in Morrowind, and Dob, the quiet Bosmer slave he considers too delicate for hard work. When Brin decides to show off with a bow, the lesson in marksmanship doesn’t go the way he expects.
