The Wondrous Logic Of Bethesda

Astrid vs Cicero

My name is Astrid,

I lead the Dark Brotherhood,

You're just a jester,

And one that isn't even good!

You tend to the Nightmother,

But will never hear her speak,

Do you want to know why?

Because she too knows you're weak!

You think you're so funny,

That we cling to every word you say,

When in all reality,

We want you to go away.

Cicero sees you,

But he doesn't understand,

Why his fellow assassins,

Would be eating from your hand?

You are disgusting,

The vile scum of the earth,

You are but a lowly worm,

You have no worth!

You are the leader?

Cicero thinks you're wrong!

Because the Nightmother's here,

And she wants you gone!

She wants me gone?

How would you even know?

You're not the Listener!

You're just here for show!

Even if she did speak,

And she told me to leave,

I still wouldn't listen,

What would leaving achieve?

I am the leader,

I have been here longer,

I have brought us to glory!

I have made us stronger!

Made us stronger?

Such an arrogant thing to say!

While you sat with your delusions,

We began to decay!

We are unknown to Skyrim,

Just a shadow in the night,

Never again to see glory!

Never again to see the light!

We are rats,

Locked away in our vault,

We will never rise again,

And it's all your fault!

All my fault?

Are we playing the "Blame Game" now?

Well then you look like a pig,

And you smell like a cow!

Smell like a cow?

When did you get so petty?

Who made you our leader,

When you're clearly not ready?

Not ready to lead?

I think you're delusional!

The way that you talk to me?

It's un-constitutional!

Oh please!

Cicero could lead better than you!

I suggest you bow down now,

And start kissing Cicero's shoe.

You think you could lead better?

You think this is all a game?

I swear that all you jesters,

Are exactly the same!

But-

You think you know best,

That you're better than all!

But I'll be the one,

Who watches you fall!

Astrid-

You know what Cicero?

I don't have to take your shit!

You wanted to lead?

Fine then, I quit!

Who won? Who's next? You decide!
