Dig That Grave

[SHARN — DRY OLDER FEMALE ORC VOICE]
You work for Caius? Then do me a favor.
Bring me the skull of Llevule Andrano.
You'll find it in Andrano Ancestral Tomb.
And don't mention necromancy to the locals.

[DEVIL]
...You want me to rob a grave?
Heh. Finally, a job with personality.

[SHARN]
Take this enchanted blade. Ghosts won't care
about your ordinary weapons.

[DEVIL]
Wait—GHOSTS?!

[BEAT DROPS — DIRTY UNDERGROUND HORRORCORE]

[VERSE 1 — SLOW GRAVELLY RAP]
Left Balmora with a blade and a bad attitude,
Another fucking errand for another shady dude.
Sharn wants a skull and won't explain the reason,
I'm starting to think grave robbery's in season.
South of Pelagiad, the road makes a split,
I been reading that journal like, where is this shit?
Then I spot an old doorway dug into a hill,
Cold air rolling out like the earth got a chill.

[HOOK — LOW, PUNCHY GANG RAP]
DIG THAT GRAVE! BRING THAT SKULL!
Every damn quest gets weirder than the last one!
BONES IN THE DARK, GHOSTS ON MY BACK,
Devil Death in the tomb and he ain't turning back!
WHO WANTS WHAT? WHAT'S IT FOR?
Can't get one straight answer in Morrowind anymore!

[VERSE 2 — BEHIND-THE-BEAT RAP]
Stone door creaks, little torch burning blue,
First skeleton jumps me—WHAT THE FUCK, WHO ARE YOU?
Swing my rusty sword, hear the bones go crack,
Second one's an archer putting arrows in my back.
Turn that corner, something floating through the wall,
Blade goes right through it—did I hit it at all?
Oh shit! Sharn warned me about these things,
Swap to the Fireblade, watch the orange flame swing.
Ghost goes down, but the hallway keeps groaning,
Something down below sounds like a dead man moaning.
Got a Bonewalker stumbling with a terrible smell,
This ain't some little dungeon, it's a timeshare in hell!

[DEVIL — SPOKEN, MUSIC DUCKS]
I hear breathing.
I don't SEE breathing.
And I ain't supposed to be the one that's scared!

[HOOK — HEAVIER DRUMS]
DIG THAT GRAVE! BRING THAT SKULL!
Every damn quest gets weirder than the last one!
BONES IN THE DARK, GHOSTS ON MY BACK,
Devil Death in the tomb and he ain't turning back!
WHO WANTS WHAT? WHAT'S IT FOR?
Can't get one straight answer in Morrowind anymore!

[VERSE 3 — TIGHTER RAP]
Down the stairs, through a doorway, tomb dust thick,
Found a shrine, old books, and a rusty-ass pick.
Two more skeletons waiting like a welcoming crew,
One got a bow—OH HELL, HERE WE GO, ROUND TWO!
Health bar blinking, digging potions from my pack,
That damn Bonewalker trying to slap my strength flat.
One more swing, now the crypt's finally still,
Found a skull by the altar, got a face full of chill.
Llevule Andrano—bro, I'm sorry for the theft,
But the Orc back in Balmora says your head's all that's left.
Stuff it in my bag, turn around and head for daylight,
Every little noise got me checking over my right.

[BRIDGE — NO BEAT, FOOTSTEPS]
[DEVIL]
Don't look back.
Don't look back.
...Why'd the music change?

[DRUMS SLAM BACK]

[VERSE 4 — LAZY SINISTER SWAGGER]
Back to Sharn with a skull wrapped in cloth,
She takes one look and says, "Good. That's what I want."
Now she tells me 'bout the Nerevarine cult,
Ancient prophecies, dead heroes, who's at fault.
Gives me notes for Caius, says the favor's done,
I'm like, "Great. Tell your ghosts I hope they had fun."
Walk back to his house, put the papers in his hand,
He starts talking 'bout the Blades and some bigger secret plan.
Says I'm doing well, might need more training yet,
Man, I fought the walking dead and I'm still in debt!

[OUTRO — BEAT FADES, LOW LAUGHTER]
[CAIUS — OLDER MALE VOICE]
Keep working on your skills.
When you're ready, we'll discuss Vivec.

[DEVIL — SPOKEN]
Vivec?
Is that another tomb?

[PAUSE]
...Don't tell me.
Let me guess.
Three more people want three more fucking things.

Heh... heh...
Welcome to Morrowind.
