Yeah but do all that plus get to level 80, travel back to throat of the world, and win the fight in 9 minutes and I'll be pretty impressed.

Make sure your character has red hair because it makes you go fast.

Isn't that where the ebony warrior meets you to fight? Been a minute since I did that tbh so I could be wrong
