Yes, thank you "captain obvious" for your sharp remark. I doubt that I would have noticed that by myself.

Well, I have installed some mods to my Skyrim recently and along with others there came this "Barbarian armor" set as well. I usually prefer realistic armors and mods so I think that calling this outfit as an armor is a "bit" stretching. But you know those barbarians... wearing only loincloths and heavy axes in any situation so let's forgive them in this matter too.

The "funny" thing was that as I was playing with my latest character Isobell and as I just put that barbarian armor set on for the first time, there came this Whiterun guard and said those exact words. Good timing if any.

And as I know that there are those among my regular visitors who haven't played Skyrim, I explain Isobells answer a bit. "Arrow to the knee" - is an overused joke among Skyrim fans and refers to the town guards who more than once tell to player that: "I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee...". Judging by the fact that almost all guards tell this to player over and over again, it must be an requirement to apply as a town guard.

I could have made the guard to say something else too like: "Let me guess, someone stole your breastplate", which would have been a slightly modified version of an actual guard quote: "Let me guess, someone stole your sweetroll." But I wanted to stay with the actual game situation.
