Beneath the ash skies of
Red Mountain
cliff racers ride the clouds;
the rats and orcs down below,
where hunger raids the
wooden huts of slaves
with magic cuffs. (I free them when I can).
There I am with my
silver claymore and heavy armor
rating sixty-six,
picking pearls in the
bottom of the Inner Sea,
walking water magically
like Jesus could have.
Ode to Morrowind, the mysterious
land where
magic spells and ghosts
prevail - small next to
the Red Mountain of evil.
Trading with V'Racil, I
realize how cheap is the meat
I killed and how valuable
a piece of armor worn by it.
I get lost and wild guars race
to sink their teeth in,
but fall dead as my hands
reach for a flaming axe.
In this land, I can, I can.
I breathe in water for two minutes,
I open doors with master lockpicks,
(trapped doors damage me,
but I have magic potions for cure).
I summon ancestral ghosts
and bonewalkers to fight
the undead and spread
poisonous balls of flame
with my bare hands. (I feel invincible now).
Sometimes I die when
I fight things unknown,
but I wake and I kill again.
I steal and sell and trade and gold
fills my pockets and doesn't weigh a thing.
Ghostfence around the
Red Mountain is alive with
angry ancestors of Dwemer beings and
I am afraid
that this will be my doom.

one tiny tip, though...why the "period" before and after the parenthesis at the bottom of stanza one?

but yea.. even as someone who doesn't know any games, this poem's great (uh, that's a slutty word. nevermind...) magical, colourful, full of life - i like this a lot. "In this land, I can, I can." - i wish i had a place like that
