Winterhold
from Stormthrashed Legacy by Scythe of Luna
about
From the ruins of Ravenfrost, Niah and Arven travel to the walled port city of Winterhold.
The once prosperous city is in decline and is ruled by bandits and pirates.
The song is about how Niah remembers Winterhold and what it has become.

lyrics
Scythe of Luna - Winterhold
[Niah]
Worn out by the grinding tides,
Grey walls of city stands.
The one was rich and full of thrive,
[Niah & Arven]
But now meets decadance.
[Niah]
Salt and ashes,
Whores and booze.
Pirates and outlaws make
Tope from their shoes,
[Arven]
Then drown the victims
Into depth of sea.
Where they all facing
The gluttonous Devils.
[Niah & Arven]
Oh, the glory of Winterhold!
[Niah]
It was emblazoned
With silk and gold.
[Niah & Arven]
Forgotten tale once was told,
[Niah]
But now there is only
The filth and gore.
As sunset goes down
Taverns gets full
Of wondering scum,
Howling at moon.
[Niah & Arven]
Stole all the treasures
And drink all the ale -
This is the pirateship
True Holy Grail.
[Niah]
Salt and ashes,
Whores and booze.
Pirates and outlaws make
Ropes not so loose.
[Arven]
Dangling poor victims
All over the place -
Thats how they meet
Their cruel fates.
[Niah & Arven]
Oh, the glory of Winterhold!
[Niah]
It was emblazoned
With silk and gold.
[Niah & Arven]
Forgotten tale once was told,
[Niah]
But now there is only
The filth and gore.
Oh, the glory of Winterhold!
[Niah & Arven]
Oh, the glory of Winterhold!
