The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Skill-Practicing Tip
1 of 4: Since Ralof is waiting for you to do something, this is another prime opportunity to practice some skills.
2 of 4: You can't practice Sneak very well here, but you can get in lots of One-Handed, Two-Handed, and Destruction practice. Just don't knock him toward the bear while hitting him.
3 of 4: You could also get in some Archery skill practice if you don't mind using up your arrows, and some Block practice by shield-bashing him.
4 of 4: NOTE: This is your last chance to practice skills on Ralof without retribution. If you attack him in any way after you finish this quest, he'll turn hostile.
