The Darkness Comes

  The Darkness…

  A million serpents, hissing in union.

  The raspy sound of many Daedra.

  Alduin proclaiming your doom.

  Nothing can describe its voice…

  Where it looks, night falls.

  Where it listens, silence grows.

  Where it touches, plague ravages.

  Where it blesses, undead replace the living.

  Where it curses… Creation itself falls apart.

  There is no escape.

  No safety.

  Every shadow is its servant,

  Every dark thought its prophet.

  You cannot stop it,

  Any more than you can stop the tide.

  The maddening silence…

  You are underground,

  Alone.

  A space infinite.

  A space cramped.

  Echoes that never return.

  Darkness that envelops all,

  A shroud of misery,

  Welcoming you to your new fate.

  The voice of Darkness…

  When it speaks…

  Oh, beware mortal. Beware,

  For the Darkness comes.
