<DIV align="center">The Five Songs of<br>
King Wulfharth<br>
<br>
<DIV align="left">Shor's Tongue<br>
<br>
The first song of King Wulfharth is ancient, circa 1E500. After the defeat of the Alessian army at Glenumbria Moors, where King Hoag Merkiller was slain, Wulfharth of Atmora was elected by the Pact of Chieftains. His thu'um was so powerful that he could not verbally swear into the office, and scribes were used to draw up his oaths. Immediately thereafter the scribes wrote down the first new law of his reign: a fiery reinstatement of the traditional Nordic pantheon. The Edicts were outlawed, their priests put to the stake, and their halls set ablaze. The shadow of King Borgas had ended for a span. For his zealotry, King Wulfharth was called Shor's Tongue, and Ysmir, Dragon of the North.<br>
<br>
Kyne's Son<br>
<br>
The second song of King Wulfharth glorifies his deeds in the eyes of the Old Gods. He fights the eastern Orcs and shouts their chief into Hell. He rebuilds the 418th step of High Hrothgar, which had been damaged by a dragon. When he swallowed a thundercloud to keep his army from catching cold, the Nords called him the Breath of Kyne.<br>
<br>
Old Knocker<br>
<br>
The third song of King Wulfharth tells of his death. Orkey, an enemy god, had always tried to ruin the Nords, even in Atmora where he stole their years away. Seeing the strength of King Wulfharth, Orkey summoned the ghost of Alduin Time-Eater again. Nearly every Nord was eaten down to six years old. Boy Wulfharth pleaded to Shor, the dead Chieftain of the Gods, to help his people. Shor's own ghost then fought the Time-Eater on the spirit plane, as he did at the beginning of time, and he won, and Orkey's folk, the Orcs, were ruined. As Boy Wulfharth watched the battle in the sky he learned a new thu'um, What Happens When You Shake the Dragon Just So. He used this new magic to change his people back to normal. In his haste to save so many, though, he shook too many years out on himself. He grew older than the Greybeards, and died. The flames of his pyre were said to have reached the hearth of Kyne itself.<br>
<br>
The Ash King<br>
<br>
The fourth song of King Wulfharth tells of his rebirth. The Dwarves and Devils of the eastern kingdoms had started to fight again, and the Nords hoped they might reclaim their ancient holdings there because of it. They planned an attack, but then gave up, knowing that they had no strong King to lead them. Then in walked the Devil of Dagoth, who swore he came in peace. Moreover, he told the Nords a wondrous thing: he knew where the Heart of Shor was! Long ago the Chief of the Gods had been killed by Elven giants, and they ripped out Shor's Heart and used it as a standard to strike fear into the Nords. This worked until Ysgramor Shouted Some Sense and the Nords fought back again. Knowing that they were going to lose eventually, the Elven giants hid the Heart of Shor so that the Nords might never have their God back. But here was the Devil of Dagoth with good news! The Dwarves and Devils of the eastern kingdom had his Heart, and this was the reason for their recent unrest. The Nords asked the Devil of Dagoth why he might betray his countrymer so, and he said that the Devils have betrayed each other since the beginning of time, and this was so, and so the Nords believed him. The Tongues sung Shor's ghost into the world again. Shor gathered an army as he did of old, and then he sucked in the long-strewn ashes of King Wulfharth and remade him, for he needed a good general. But the Devil of Dagoth petitioned to be that general, too, and he pointed out his role as the blessed harbinger of this holy war. So Shor had two generals, the Ash King and the Devil of Dagoth, and he marched on the eastern kingdoms with all the sons of Skyrim. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Red Mountain<br>
<br>
The fifth song of King Wulfharth is sad. The survivors of the disaster came back under a red sky. That year is called Sun's Death. The Devil of Dagoth had tricked the Nords, for the Heart of Shor was not in the eastern kingdoms, and had never been there at all. As soon as Shor's army had got to Red Mountain, all the Devils and Dwarves fell upon them. Their sorcerers lifted the mountain and threw it onto Shor, trapping him underneath Red Mountain until the end of time. They slaughtered the sons of Skyrim, but not before King Wulfharth killed King Dumalacath the Dwarf-Orc, and doomed his people. Then Vehk the Devil blasted the Ash King into Hell and it was over. Later, Kyne lifted the ashes of the ashes of Ysmir into the sky, saving him from Hell and showing her sons the color of blood when it is brought by betrayal. And the Nords will never trust another Devil again.<br>

The Secret Song of<br>
Wulfharth Ash-King<br>
<br>
<DIV align="left">The Truth at Red Mountain<br>
<br>
The Heart of Shor was in Resdayn, as Dagoth-Ur had promised. As Shor's army approached the westernmost bank of the Inner Sea, they stared across at Red Mountain, where the Dwemeri armies had gathered. News from the scouts reported that the Chimeri forces had just left Narsis, and that they were taking their time joining their cousins against the Nords. Dagoth-Ur said that the Tribunal had betrayed their King's trust, that they sent Dagoth-Ur to Lorkhan (for that is what they called Shor in Resdayn) so that the god might wreak vengeance on the Dwarves for their hubris; that Nerevar's peace with the Dwemer would be the ruin of the Velothi way. This was the reason for the slow muster, Dagoth-Ur said.<br>
<br>
The Armies Grow<br>
<br>
And Lorkhan (for that is what they called Shor in Resdayn) said: 的 do not wreak vengeance on the Dwarves for the reasons that the Tribunal might believe I do. Nevertheless, it is true that they will die by my hand, and any whoever should side with them. This Nerevar is the son of Boethiah, one of the strongest Padomaics. He is a hero to his people despite his Tribunal, and he shall muster enough that this battle will be harder going still. We will need more than what we have.・And so Dagoth-Ur, who wanted the Dwarves as dead as the Tribunal did, went to Kogoran and summoned his House chap'thil, his nix-hounds, his wizards, archers, his stolen men of brass. And the Ash King, Wulfharth, hoary Ysmir, went and made peace with the Orcs in spite of his Nordic blood, and they brought many warriors but no wizards at all. Many Nords could not bring themselves to ally with their traditional enemies, even in the face of Red Mountain. They were close to desertion. Then Wulfharth said: 泥on't you see where you really are? Don't you know who Shor really is? Don't you know what this war is?・And they looked from the King to the God to the Devils and Orcs, and some knew, really knew, and they are the ones that stayed.<br>
<br>
The Doom Drum<br>
<br>
Nerevar carried Keening, a dagger made of the sound of the shadow of the moons. His champions were Dumac Dwarfking, who carried a hammer of divine mass, and Alandro Sul, who was the immortal son of Azura and wore the Wraith Mail. They met Lorkhan at the last battle of Red Mountain. Lorkhan had his Heart again, but he had long been from it, and he needed time. Wulfharth met Sul but could not strike him, and he fell from grievous wounds, but not before shouting Sul blind. Dagoth-Ur met Dumac and slew him, but not before Sunder struck his lord's Heart. Nerevar turned away from Lorkhan and struck down Dagoth-Ur in rage, but he took a mortal wound from Lorkhan in turn. But Nerevar feigned the death that was coming early and so struck Lorkhan with surprise on his side. The Heart had been made solid by Sunder's tuning blow and Keening could now cut it out. And it was cut out and Lorkhan was defeated and the whole ordeal was thought over.<br>

<DIV align="center">Wulfharth王の五雅歌<br>
<br>
<DIV align="left">Shoreの舌<br>
<br>
Wulfharth王の最初の歌は古く、1E500頃の事である。Glenumbria_MoorsでAlessia軍は退けられたが、Hoag_Merkiller王が討たれたため、Pact_of_ChieftainsはAtmoraのWulfharthを新たな王に指名した。彼のthu'umはあまりにも強大だったため誓いの言葉を口にする事はできず、彼の宣誓は書記たちにより書き留められた。まもなく書記たちは彼の最初の法令を書き記した：_伝統的なNordic神話を復権せよ、と。Alessiaの法は禁止され、司祭たちは処刑され、神殿は火を放たれた。Borgas王の影は一時的に払われた。Wulfharth王の熱意は、彼にShorの舌、そして北の竜Ysmirの二つ名を与えた。<br>
<br>
Kyneの子<br>
<br>
Wulfharth王の二つ目の歌は彼の行いをOld_Godsの目に留まらせる物である。彼は東方のOrcと戦い彼らの酋長を地獄へ追いやった。彼はとある竜によって破壊されたHigh_Hrothgarの418階層目を再建した。自軍が風邪をひかぬようにと彼が雷雲を飲み込んだ際には、Nordは彼をKyneの息吹と呼んだ。<br>
<br>
Old_Knocker<br>
<br>
Wulfharth王の三つ目の歌は彼の死を語る。敵対する神Orkeyは、既に年月を奪ったAtmoraを含めNordを滅ぼそうと常に試みていた。Wulfharth王の強さを目の当たりにしたOrkeyは、再びAlduin_Time-Eaterの霊を召喚した。ほとんどのNordは6歳まで年月を食われてしまった。少年になったWulfharthは、神々の死んだ長Shorに助けを求めた。時の始まりにそうしたように、Shor自身の霊がTime-Eaterと精神の次元で戦い、勝利し、そしてOrkeyの民、Orcは破滅した。Wulfharth少年は空の戦いを見ながら、新しいthu'um、What_Happens_When_You_Shake_the_Dragon_Just_Soを習得した。彼はこの新しい魔法を使い彼の民を元の姿にもどした。しかし、あまりにも多くをあまりにも速く救おうと、彼は多すぎる年月を自身に振ってしまった。彼はGreybeardsよりも年をとり、息絶えた。彼の火葬の炎はKyneの暖炉まで届いたという。<br>
<br>
灰の王<br>
<br>
Wulfharth王の四つ目の歌は彼の再誕を語る。東の王国のDwarfと悪魔が再び争い始め、Nordはこれを機に古の財産を取り返せると考えた。彼らは進軍を計画したが、彼らを導いてくれる力強き王が不在なのを知っていた為、諦めた。するとDagothという悪魔が現れ、敵意が無い事を誓った。さらに、彼はNordに素晴らしい事を告げた：_彼はShorの心臓の在りかを知っていた！遠い昔、神々の長はElfの巨人たちにより殺害され、そして彼らはNordを恐怖させるためにShorの心臓を抉り取った。しかしYsgramorがNordに渇を入れ、Nordは応戦した。いつか敗北する事を悟ったElfの巨人達は、Nordが彼らの神を二度と取り戻せぬようShorの心臓を隠した。しかし悪魔Dagothが良い報せを持って来た！東の王国のDwarfと悪魔が彼の心臓を所持していて、最近彼らが荒れているのはそれが理由だった。Nordは悪魔Dagothになぜ彼は自国の民を裏切るのか尋ね、そして彼は悪魔達は時の始まりからお互いを裏切ってきたと答え、これは真実であったため、Nordは彼を信じた。TonguesはShorの霊を再びこの世へ歌い戻した。Shorは昔のように軍隊を集め、そして彼は有能な将軍が必要だったためWulfharth王の散り散りになった遺灰を吸い込み彼を造り直した。しかし悪魔Dagothは自身を将軍に要請し、自分が聖戦の祝福されし前兆であった事を指摘した。そのためShorは灰の王と悪魔Dagoth、二人の将軍を持ち、そして彼はSkyrimの息子達と共に東の王国へ行軍した。 <br>

<br>
Red Mountain<br>
<br>

Later, Kyne lifted the ashes of the ashes of Ysmir into the sky, saving him from Hell and showing her sons the color of blood when it is brought by betrayal. And the Nords will never trust another Devil again.<br>
