[Quiet Man Cometh]

That's something Elder Scrolls just does. The groups laugh at you until you better their rank. Just talk to the right guy a few times and usually you get up there until they insist that you actually need to do stuff to get the next rank. Maybe Skyrim is different though. Haven't gotten that far. I'm still going after the golden claw.

and jumping in rivers to catch the odd fish 'cause I feel like it.
