Already have a Skyrim anecdote to share, because the game made me feel like an awful human being earlier. So, I just got of the opening area, into a snowy forest, and hear "I think I see something!" and then hear a bark, and I look, and I see a hunter, bow drawn. So I watch him for a second, and realise he's a hunting a fox. Which is all well and good until I accidentally attack him, prompting him to attack me back. So, I'm forced to kill him, pretty standard Elder Scrolls stuff ...except then this shaggy dog comes lumbering up, having finished off the fox for it's master, and then whimpers and lays down beside the body
