1
Northward, haunted
northern coastline
And south, Dwemer
live and toil,
A simple place,
a shield from draft.
At this stand
wield mage's craft
So fierce the sea will boil.
|
2
Under Greybeards'
morning shadow
At this northern
watch, long lost
Nirn's hoary Throat
does scrape the sky.
Here unleash a chilling cry
And gild this stand with frost.
|
3
Over western
river waters,
By Karth bounded,
south and north
On mountains sits
a humble crown.
Sky's wrath on this stand
bring forth
To shake these snowcaps down.
|
4
Elemental magic wielded,
Elemental thoughts displayed
Havoc wrought as if for sport,
Efforts to impress fall short.
I'll merely use a blade.
Seeking study, wanting learning,
Recklessly aroused my rage!
My pupil you would be, or more?
|
5
Presume not of Shalidor,
You feeble, foolish mage!
Quickly dispatched,
Worthless weakling,
Though this tome I gladly claim.
A diamond in the rough, I find,
Shining gem from feeble mind.
Now die, and curse my name!
