The following will be a collection of my Elder Scrolls-themed poetic pieces. For now, there is only one verse, but the Book will be updated. Excuse my English in advance.
I hope you'll enjoy.
The Bend'r-Mahk
Nightblade's Note: "The Bend'r-Mahk" was inspired by the War of the Bend'r-Mahk in 3E 397, as well as the events related to it, most notably the ones of The Elder Scrolls Travels: Shadowkey.
With scimitars, daggers and swords all unsheathed
They stand on the hills and raise their shields
Their aim is to keep safe the great Alik'r
Their battle cry loud, instilling the fear
Their greatest desire's to drive off the Nords
They are not afraid, they praise their lord
The town of Skaven lies in ruins, alone
Two provinces stand against Skyrim's revolt
But shadows are cast from the glistening blades
From rugged battlefields they steer away
The conflict grows closer to darkness' sway
No seasoned warrior, but a shadowmage
While both sides are ripe with woe and death
They strengthen the shadow of Umbra' Keth
And when their corpses will be laid to rest
They'll haunt their own graves at Asuul's behest
When Crowns and Forebears united no more
And Dragonstar city does not stand as whole
When peaceful lands are torn apart by the war
That is when one can hear Umbra' Keth's roar
A shadowy creature within Crypt of Hearts
Can only be slain by the light of the stars
And when the pedestals house the Star Teeth
The evil is gone, or so they believe...
