A Skyrim player has stumbled upon a surprising revelation upon revisiting the town of Helgen. The explosive opening sequence of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, which involves players escaping a dragon attack while narrowly avoiding execution, sets the tone for the rest of the game. It has become an iconic introduction to the world of Skyrim. However, through the use of mods, players can alter their experience of this level. One such mod, known as Alternate Start, allows players to witness the introduction sequence from a new perspective and change the beginning of Skyrim, offering a fresh take on the lengthy intro. According to comments from fans, this mod provides an exciting and unique experience. And now, a Skyrim user has uncovered a surprising discovery upon returning to Helgen.

A lone soldier stands ready to defend Helgen in an image shared by Reddit user MotherFTonttu during their playthrough of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. The player was surprised to find a survivor of the battle upon returning to the town. In the comments section, users share various stories related to the soldier's role in the dragon attack, with one gamer claiming it was their duty to snipe prisoners. Some speculate on the soldier's trauma, while others joke that they must be the Dragonborn. A few fans even suggest eliminating the witness.

On the contrary, some gamers have reported encountering this NPC before and claim that he was killed by bandits during their playthrough of Skyrim. It seems like this is a common occurrence, as another user also mentions that Helgen was taken over by bandits in their game.

The introduction of Skyrim provides a unique opportunity for gamers to level up certain skills before embarking on their journey in the open world. For instance, one Skyrim fan discovered a clever trick to level up their sneak skill to 100 before leaving Helgen, while another player managed to reach an impressive level 241 in the same location.

The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
