The Wailing Prison | Thalorix – ESO-Inspired Original Song

[Intro]
No sun above me
No soul within
Only the chains
And the voices beneath my skin

[Verse 1]
I woke where the broken are buried alive
Beneath a dead sky where no daylight survives
Cold iron around me, blue fire in the stone
A prisoner breathing, but no longer whole
They carved out my spirit and left me to fade
Another lost shadow in Molag Bal’s cage
But something inside me refused to be still
The dark took my soul—but it never took my will

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the prison tremble
Let the wardens know
Something has awakened
In the depths below

[Chorus]
I rise from the Wailing Prison
Through the ash and the flame
Coldharbour tried to break me
Now it remembers my name
No chain can hold the darkness
No grave can make me kneel
I returned without a soul
But I came back made of steel

[Verse 2]
The halls spoke in whispers, the dead called me near
Their sorrow became something stronger than fear
I followed the prophet through corridors of bone
Each step toward freedom made the darkness my own
The anchors were falling, the gateway burned bright
I carried the fury of an endless night
And when I crossed over beneath Tamriel’s sky
The woman they captured had already died

[Bridge]
I am not the sacrifice
I am not the prey
I am the blade inside the dark
That cuts the chains away

[Final Chorus]
I rose from the Wailing Prison
Through the ash and the flame
Coldharbour could not own me
Now the realm will know my name
No chain can hold the darkness
No god can make me kneel
I returned without a soul
And awakened as Thalorix

[Outro]
Let Coldharbour remember
The prisoner who returned
