He was fled after his camp was attacked and slughtered by Imperial forces, finding his was to Broken Oar Grotto, he was accepted by Captain Blackblood to serve as the Grotto's blacksmith.

He is resigned to his new life as an outlaw and takes heart that his craft will at least still be used to bloody the nose of the Empire.
Quotes:
"You need good steel for the battles ahead, come see me. My spirit may be broken, but my forge is still hot and my arm still strong."
"Heard the dragons burned the Thalmor's so called 'embassy'. First bit of real good news I've heard in long time. Lost a lot of brothers and sisters to that cursed place."
"Had a few Stormcloak bands come by. Fewer and fewer these days. Deserter they call me. While they skulk in the hills and harras carvans like common bandits."
"I hear Ulfric is holding out in Windhelm still. Wont be long now till general Tullius takes his head. The war is lost but I'll survive. Imperial dogs won't catch me so easily."
"Some folk think thier poncy elven weapons and armour will save thier hides but I've seen good steel shatter a fancy elven breastplate more times than I can count."
"You see an Imperial patrol out there in your travels. You go ahead and plunge my steel through their skulls. Just don't let them form up and they go down easy as any man."
"These Blackblood Marauders are no warriors. They'd rather bully fishermen than take on a real fight. That Captain Hargar though, he's a true Nord and a good fighter."
