A Cyrodiil Poem

By Akatosh and Eight Divines
Please forgive me of all my sins I decree
For I have wrought bloodshed in Cyrodiil
For I have rebelled against you

My forefathers. Please hear my plea
For I believe it may be on death's ears
The Chaos. The screams. The pure agony of it all

O the horror that awaits my people. For it is I who did this
It was I who should be ashamed.
Twas it not I who started the o so never ending war?

Was it not I who stole the Elder Scrolls? From that good church?
Was it not I that got caught? But yet I twisted there minds?
For was it not I that who planted the scrolls in each section of Cyrodiil?

Was it not I who made you believe that I was one of you, but yet I keep on deceiving you?
Was it not I who you thought that you saw me in the shadows. Whilst you drinking Skoma?
But decided that you have drunk to much?

Was it not I who stands before you but suddenly vanishes into thin air?
Was it not I who took out all the mages off each gates. That protects each territorys?
Have you ever wondered where they gone off to?

Naw it was not I who took those mages out.
But I know where they have gone off to.
For they are you and you are them.
For who do we trust but ourselves?

Yet I must admit. It was I who wanted to see you all get destroyed.
It was I who decieved you all along.
For was it not fun?

Seeing your comrades get hurt?
To see em cry like a little crab?

For the wind blows
The sounds of thunder passes
As if a great shadow passes
Or was it?

For it was I who finaly came to his senses
For I grew weary of my dark adventures
By Akatosh and Eight Divines!
Show mercy on me!

The End

(Please not. I borrowed names. But will change names later. Most of it was my idea)

1.What do you all think?
2. Let's say if you were this character. Just pretend. Do you feel any pity or remorse?
3. What should this character must do?
4. Will he ever be forgiven?
5. Does he even feel sorry?
6. Or was he deceiving you again?
7. Could he be a former priest or monk?
8. What say you all?

I'm really not in the full analysis of a poem mood. If I was, this post would be massive.

Still, it is a good poem.

If I was this character, I would probably not feel remorse, because I would probably died or been driven to insanity by looking at one of the Elder Scrolls.

This character must learn to live with what he's done; there is no reversing his actions.

He may be forgiven. It's hard to say by whom at the moment, but most importantly, he must forgive himself.

You bring up a very good point. And that topic would be a debatable topic.

As said, it's a good point, and he very well may be deceiving the reader.

So, in conclusion. Good poem with plenty to analyze.

You have brought up really good points. For your answers. Could this character be a former ancestoral monk who could read the scrolls while harming?

I agree he must learn to live from what he done and must learn to forgive himself. I thank you for honest opinion
