Ballad of the blood orchid

Crimson red eyes

Filled with grief and ire

White locks of fresh snow

You flee with the morning light

Never mine

Only the slightest breath of bergamot, rosemary and brandy

A fading memory already

Soft lips, silver tongue

Speaking of love

But ruby eyes never do

I see ire and pain, never fade away

Silver locks hide cruelty and suffering

Crimson red eyes

Filled with grief and ire

White locks of fresh fallen snow

You flee with the first sight of morning light

Never ever mine

Only the slightest breath of bergamot, rosemary and brandy remains

A fading memory’s testament

Innocent young heart replaced with grudge and bitterness

First hint of morning light you flee from my arms

With your heart in cold dark endless night

Holding you is like dancing with a flame

Crimson red eyes

Filled with grief and ire

White locks of fresh fallen snow

You flee with the first sight of morning light

Never ever mine

Only the hint of bergamot, rosemary and brandy

Remains as an already fading memory

Kindness and mercy ripped from the heart of the darkness

Carved scars

Ripped it from your flesh and soul

Morning light replaces caress and gentle touch

Leaves red eyes full of regret and sorrow

And your heart will stay cold and stone until tomorrow

Silvery locks of white, ruby red eyes

Flee in the morning

a/n: Normally I write my ballads and songs in the usual scheme. But I am trying something different now, thought it could fit the bardic ballad style.

I am trying to create a song, that tells about a dramatic love and is worthy of Astarion's sad, tragic story.

Because to replay it all over and over again, I see the scenes different each time. Their first night together makes me think. And I ask how it feels for Tav and Astarion during Act 1 if Tav is sincere and see through his facade, see that sweet words and smiles just cover up...

Bard Song: Simril Night

I decided to write two winter holiday themed songs for my bard collection. A first one of Simril you'll get today. There will be another one tomorrow.

As stars come out in this long night, Come my children, come. Look how the stars are burning bright, Come my children, come.

They foretell your fate, your fortune bold, Your destiny is written, In the sky in Simril night, Our future’s story told.

In Simril night the stars might hide. Come my children, come. And yet we will look up and bide. Come my children, come.

For when your own start twinkles bright, It is Tymora’s smile. She smilet on your destiny, Good fortunes brings her might. Oh Lady Luck come bless us here.

Come, my children, come. The future’s far, the future’s near. Come, my children, come. Your blessing brings us certainty So we will last the night, Will last the months, will last the years, Will let us live in harmony.

The future’s far, the future’s near. Oh Lady Luck come bless us here.

For a bit more context, have a look at the collection on Ao3!

Enchanters remind

That time will not unwind

The dragon's crooked spine

Will never straighten into line

What we plea will be

A faithful end decree

Where a man will not retreat

From the defeat of his fathers

Enchanters

A time has come for battle lines

We will cut these knotted ties

And some may live and some may die

Enchanter, come to me

Enchanter, come to me

Enchanter, come to see

Can you, can you come to see?

As you once were blind

In the light now you can sing

In our strength we can rely

And history will not repeat

The Ballad of the Battle for Windhelm

From the viewpoint of an unnamed Legionnaire who was present during the battle.

The fireballs flew at us

Ere we entered the city

The barricades were set

Stormcloaks sitting pretty

Windhelm was theirs

They thought they were stronger

But no legionnaire

Would stand back any longer

Though not Skyrim born

She loved our sons and daughters

Had to harden her heart

As we commenced the slaughter

We cut a bold swath

Through a city in flames

And we cut down the enemy

Without knowing their names

There’s no glory in war

A wise man once told her

And she wept for these people

As they fought ever bolder

To the Palace of Kings

We did slash our way through

It was Ulfric’s last day

And he already knew

Steadfast for his cause

He was firm to the end

Under better conditions

They might have been friends

Ulfric’s bold final wish

Was to die by her hand

To make the best song

To be sung through the land

Though sick of the bloodshed

She fulfilled his request

To Sovngarde she sent him

To commune with the best

Not her proudest moment

But a necessary one

And the Dragonborn prayed,

“Find peace, Skyrim’s son.”
