Act III: The Rising Strife
Mortals did not the dragons test
For in their hearts, they feared their rage
Children of Akatosh were they
Who ruled the dark and grievous age
Bright Silmirnil alone stood out
Benevolent, though great in might
And Alduin did let alone
All mortals who to her did plight
Though many sought for status then
To serve as priests for pow'r to gain
All those who pledged to Silmirnil
Did safely in her charge remain
But not all dragons were so kind
And ravaged mortalkind with death
For dominion was in their blood
As was all nature on their breath
Silmirnil in her temple light
To chaos and unease was blind
But when she saw the world's distress
It became always on her mind
For even though she loved her mate
And could not from him part
These crimes to peace would bring an end
She knew it in her deepest heart
Her fears she told to Alduin
And begged him change his ways
But in his pride, he heeded not
Then dawned the darkest days
