FormID: 01006165 00Cairpre GREETING 0 Hello, may I say that it is good to meet such an extraordinary being as yourself.
__
FormID: 01006165 00Cairpre GREETING 1 I am Cairpre, Bard of the Emperor. He was more than just my liege, however, he was my friend.
__
FormID: 01006165 00Cairpre GREETING 2 I shall miss him, but his memory will live on in my songs. I have tales to share, if you fancy one.
__
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 0 When King Lysandus of Daggerfall died, the Emperor sent a hero to investigate the death.
__
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 1 While there, this hero got mixed up with the Princess of Wayrest and none other than the King of Worms, acting as their errand boy.
__
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 2 She wanted to marry the King of Firsthold, so she offered Wormy her first born if he would arrange it.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 3 I don't think the hero knew what that meant at the time.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 4 Not seeming too bright, he also got mixed up with the Underking and performed various services for different people.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 5 All of it is heroic in its own way at the time, but when history is written about a hero,
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 6 It never remembers how you risked your life to find a painting for a queen.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 7 No, heroes are remembered for deeds that actually change history, not for running errands, but I digress�
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 8 The Hero of Daggerfall is not remembered for his errands, though they probably did act as steps in the step to greatness.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 9 The Hero is instead remembered for finding the traitor to the Empire and retrieving the Totem of Tiber Septim from Daggerfall.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 10 Of course, no one really knows who got the Totem from the Hero.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 11 Some say the Emperor used it to crush the rebellion. Others say that the Underking got it.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 12 I think it went to the King of Worms and it made him a god. I heard that Arch-Mage Hannibal Traven outlawed necromancy.
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 13 And I know there have been a lot more people talking about necromancers, so that tells me one thing�
FormID: 01005A8A 00Cairpre HeroofDaggerfall 14 The King of Worms is still alive and�gods help us all�an immortal!
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 0 Morrowind was once plagued by the evil Dagoth Ur. It was a dark time for that land.
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 1 A terrible disease ran through the population of Vvardenfell. Blight storms spread across the land, turning people into monsters!
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 2 The whole of civilization seemed perched on the edge of a knife ready to fall at any moment. Not unlike the current situation, eh?
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 3 But a hero came along and defeated Dagoth Ur, cured the disease and stopped the blight storms.
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 4 I am sure you've read about all that, but what you probably don't know is that the Hero of Morrowind found something unique.
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 5 In the Omalen Ancestral Tomb, the Hero found the corpse of another adventurer, but this one was from another world!
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 6 He was an archeologist who found many great treasures and battled many foes, including ones called Notsies, which seem to be as vile as goblins
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 7 His corpse was found under a rock that sprang down from perhaps the only trap that he ever triggered�or not.
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 8 Anyway, his name was Indie, and I am sure he served as an inspiration to the Hero of Morrowind to continue on
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 9 through all of his challenges and battles and everything else that befalls a hero.
FormID: 01005A8C 00Cairpre HeroofMorrowindandIndie 10 Well, everything but snakes. No one wants to mess with snakes.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 0 There is a sad story that I've recently witnessed personally, that of scorned love and treachery.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 1 It occurred whilst I stayed at the Wawnet Inn at Weye. There was a young man also staying there named Nath Dyer.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 2 I got to know him over the few days that I rented a room there, so I saw everything that happened to him unfold.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 3 His story moved me so much, I wrote this song.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 4 After a long road, in the hamlet Weye
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 5 It is good to stop for a good nights rest
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 6 At the Wawnet Inn he would often stay
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 7 Where the beds are good and the food is best.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 8 This young man full of life with a good heart,
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 9 A stout laugh and eyes like the stars above
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 10 He's a quick wit, a kind man and smart
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 11 Yet na�e enough when it comes to love.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 12 For there was a girl who'd drop by to see
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 13 What patrons were making their way from
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 14 The white walls of Imperial City
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 15 Whether they rich, noble or just handsome.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 16 She was of alabaster skin you see
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 17 Raven black hair wind-swept over her face
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 18 Her lips as red as the sweetest cherry
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 19 I could tell she's trouble despite her grace.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 20 It was easy to see this fierce beauty
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 21 Had something in mind for the men she sought
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 22 She'd charm them 'fore they'd go and they'd agree
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 23 To follow her without a single thought.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 24 They would never come back to get their stuff
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 25 Though in their absence, some men often came
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 26 Who looked battle-hardened and very rough
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 27 Saying they'd take out his goods in his name.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 28 Nath Dyer had no suspicion in mind
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 29 Whenever he saw his love walk on by
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 30 Yet with her, his tongue was just hard to find
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 31 He was a good kid, but so very shy.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 32 Then he came up with an ingenious plan
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 33 To express his love and let it be known
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 34 He would like nothing more to be her man
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 35 Or else die without her, cold and alone.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 36 A note he wrote and laid it on her chair
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 37 Then he left, a primrose held in one hand
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 38 When she returned she found it laying there
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 39 And read it, sneering at this young farmhand.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 40 She glanced out the window and left so quick
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 41 The innkeeper yelled out [QUOTE]Pay for your food![QUOTE]
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 42 She grasped Nath in a way that seemed drastic
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 43 And led the poor lad away for good.
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 44 I know where she went, this temptress, this thief
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 45 Fort Nikel was her abode with her roguish gang
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 46 I think it is sad beyond all belief
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 47 She still lives, for her deeds she will not hang
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 48 Be wary of the one you choose to love
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 49 For you can be blinded by your feelings
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 50 Then love doth slap you with its iron glove
FormID: 01006F19 00Cairpre NathDyer 51 And leave you wasted among its killings.
