    A family generation lasts about 20-30 years.

    1000 * 25 = 25 000

    that’s an old sword.

      To put that into perspective, the oldest known permanent human settlement is about 25,000 years old. The Bronze Age wouldn’t start for another ~20,000 years, so they wasn’t any metal working.

    I’d probably just drop it at their feet. Even if they’re a vendor, it’s likely not worth the few seconds it would take to sell back to them.

    Meanwhile I’d just dump it somewhere else or it would be forgotten in my inventory or some storage

      At least Skyrim loot is usually leveled, so even if you do it a long time into the game, you’ll still get something useful.

      Though it does make for unusual rewards when someone says “found this in the dirt under me chicken shed” and it’s this big daedric battleaxe.

    Aside from the hilarity of this being true, I can’t seem to stop laughing at just “rusty chicken sword”.
