What a peculiar place the barrow turned out to be. I hadn't explored for very long before reaching this elaborate room and gate locking me from going further into the crypt.
I confess it - I'm relieved! This place puts the fear of Oblivion into me. There are some carvings in this room. I'll attempt to transcribe them for the College so I have something to show for this effort.
All was so in Atmora
land of truth and our home
Man in his throne,
- so should he be
Whale in the sea,
- so should he be
Eagle in Sun's Sky,
- so should he be
Snake in the weed
- so should he be
Sorrow! For the Sea-Ghosts took Yngol
- Prize Brother of Sail from Atmora's Fleet
And none on land
- nor sky, nor sea
would ever again
- be as should be
Fascinating, these ancient Nords. I wonder what other secrets are hidden here? Surely there can't be harm in trying to go a little further, and there is a lever here which must open the gate beyond.
