OneSkyrimplayer spotted multiple guards swimming in the Whiterun region of the game.Skyrim’s world is massive, and it has nine subregions called holds that are governed by a Jarl. Whiterun is the largest hold inThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimand includes many cities, villages, and small settlements like farms, and these are usually well protected by guards.
Whiterun is one of the most heavily guardedholds ofThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, as soldiers regularly patrol key areas and settlements. MostSkyrimplayers can easily identify a guard of Whiterun because of their noticeable yellow armor with chainmail and fur boots. These guards are skilled warriors and are usually seen pursuing lawbreakers, but oneSkyrimgamer has witnessed several Whiterun troops swimming peacefully.

Reddit user midnight_meat_market uploaded a video on theSkyrimsubreddit showing a strange occurrence involving several Whiterun guards. The video initially shows the user talking to a soldier from Whiterun before going to a nearby water body. Unknowingly, they turn the camera towards the small pool of water when they spot a couple ofWhiterun guardsswimming in it. Initially, what appeared as two guards turned out to be many as a lot more figures appeared in the water body. One by one, the soldiers fromThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimstep out of the water in an orderly fashion. A total of eight soldiers come out of the water, and they go on about their business, almost like a routine activity. As this happens, another Whiterun guard approaches the player and talks about Psijic monks as if he completely ignores what is happening nearby.
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimfans on Reddit found the video quite amusing and had interesting things to say. Many fans jokingly said that the Whiterun guards might be running a secret organization or a cult underneath the water body, while others compared it to famous scenes from mystery movies. However, mostSkyrimgamers pointed out that the torches in the guards' hands were automatically set on fire as soon as they came out of the small pool.
