The stormcloaks are false flag and paid by the elves.

The True High King was anti elf and was a good leader.

The emperor, the high king, the empire, all stood ready to take back the land the elves stole and restore balance and freedom.

Talos was never forgotten.
>>
>>33472974

This.

If you want to be a tool of chaos or a tool of destruction then by all means side with the empire or be nonaligned.

Talos' Apotheosis prevents the Altmer from achieving godhood and either ruling or destroying mankind. To achieve the death of amnkind the Altmer must destroy belief in Tiber Septim as being a god.

Actually, by saving, loading, pausing to open your inventory or favorites menu, modding, or using console commands, you have achieved CHIM.

All of these acts are explained in-game, as being CHIM. You are your character and you are in full control of everything that happens to your character in the game, thus your character is already CHIM.

What I'm saying is that if you were a, say Nord, who lived in the TES universe, and you achieved CHIM, you would be able to in a sense, "open the console, target someone and type 'kill' to kill them". You would be able to, "pause", or "reload", or "save". You could open something akin to the creation kit, and mod yourself a waifu, or make yourself a dragon and fly around.

You, in this world, are playing a character, in the TES world, who can already do those things. When you're about to be murdered to death by a Dunmer mage in the game, you can just pause your game, open your inventory and pop a fire resist potion and a health potion. This is effectively your character turning into a "god" without actually becoming an Aedra or Daedra. You could even mod yourself into your version of the game as the 10th Divine if you wanted. This is what I mean.

On the Markarth incident.

When the Imperial Legion arrived to restore the rule of law, Ulfric refused them entry into the city until they also agreed free worship of Talos would be allowed. With chaos supposedly running through the streets of Markarth and the reports of deaths rising every day, the Empire had no choice but to grant Ulfric and his men their worship, thus jeopardizing the peace agreement with the Aldmeri Dominion.[6]

Eventually, The Empire rescinded upon the agreement due to pressure from the Aldmeri Dominion, and Ulfric and his militia were expelled from the city and imprisoned shortly after. This betrayal left Ulfric bitter towards the Empire and is considered to be the initial conception of the Stormcloak rebellion.[6]

They arrested and tortured him. He is listed as an uncooperative asset because he is fighting and weakening the Empire.
>>
>>33474582
Daggerfall is a city in High Rock moron. Hammerfell is still fighting. And for various reasons but not the least of which is the fact that most of their soldiers were Imperial legionnaires and use Imperial armaments
>The Concordat's terms also included the cession by the Empire of a large portion of southern Hammerfell to the Aldmeri Dominion. Hammerfell, however, was unwilling to accept the loss of so much territory and continued to fight, forcing Titus II to officially release Hammerfell from status as an Imperial province in order to maintain the treaty, but not before allowing most of the legionnaires stationed in Hammerfell to be declared 'invalid', thus allowing them to continue fighting.

Technically but they're usually not thought of as such. It's rarely referenced in game (pretty sure other mer don't greet you as "brother" if the player is an orc). They're more likely to get lumped together with Kahjit and Argonians as "beastfolk".

No they wouldn't, there's such a thing as a coalition.

The Goybeards don't give a shit about happenings outside their stronghold. As long as they're free to worship their hippie dragon on their mountain, they're happy.

The only reason they interfered in the war at all was because the Dragonborn needed a temporary truce to beat Alduin, if I recall correctly. Besides dragon-related happenings, they don't give a shit about the outside world.

>When have smaller things survived to larger ones?
All the time, look up the Napoleonic wars. A coalition of small states is often the best thing for combating larger states, especially when the enemy already has free reign to do what they've wanted to do all along from the inside of the empire.

No, because real countries don't house magical monuments that shadowy organizations wish to destroy in order to undo creation.

>Once the Bosmer realize that the Altmer aren't their friends and rebel
They are, the Thalmor aren't joking when they say they're the saviors of the elves. They pretty much gained power from winning at the Oblivion crisis and their whole goal is to return time to the dawn era when elves were immortal angel-like beings and men didn't exist. It's in the elves best interests that they win (except Orisimer and Dunmer who are theologically opposed to returning to the dawn era).

>Then the eastern provinces will put their backs into this time (because by now everyone realizes the Thalmor are dicks)
Nigger, when Argonians were marching all over Resdayn the empire did sweet fuck all and now have pretty much no military control in Morrowind because house Redoran run the show.

The empire can expect House Redoran to do exactly for them what they did when they pulled the imperial troops out of Morrowind during the Oblivion Crisis, fucking nothing.

The aldmeri dominion is a formidable enemy.
The only reason Tiber Septim was able to conquer the Summerset Isles was by utilizing mer technology left behind by the Dwemer, the Brass God. This is the whole reason they are setting out as conquerors now. They are angry that Talos defeated them, and now they want revenge.

A united Empire is the only thing that can stop their grasp at revenge. We have to beat them back to the source, or at least off the mainland.

Argonia (Black Marsh) is suspected of seceding shortly after the Oblivion Crisis and Morrowind is confirmed to have done it. The Empire doesn't have Eastern provinces.

It is currently composed Cyrodil, northern Elsweyr (they split between Thalmor and Empire), Highrock, and depending on next game's outcome, Skyrim too.

>When the Thalmor come to destroy the Throat, they'll fight.

They don't want revenge at Tiber Septim for conquering them, they want revenge on Lorkhan for dooming elven kind to mortality.

>A united Empire is the only thing that can stop their grasp at revenge. We have to beat them back to the source, or at least off the mainland.
A united empire failed once, it will fail again especially since the Dominion have only gotten stronger and there's nothing that can save the empire now.

Hammerfell with aid from allies on Tamriel were able to resist Aldmeri conquest, literally the only people on the continent who were able to tell the Thalmor where to go and they were independent. There's no reason to believe an independent Skyrim couldn't do the same and there's plenty of reason to doubt that the empire are ever going to recover to their former strength.

Bosmer have a little man blood (just like Bretons have a little mer blood) Thalmor are the saviors of the Altmer. Remember when Delphine tells you Malborn can be trusted because "he's a Bosmer.

Neither do the Thalmor, if you want to worship fucking living god idols like Vivec they couldn't give two fucks. They don't want you to worship Talos not because they think it's heresy, but because Talos is a tower which they need to disable in order to undo creation.

Also notice when Malborn is fleeing the Thalmor they send a Khajiit after him.

The Khajit (and probably many Bosmer) are very loyal to the dominion because they saved them from the Oblivion Crisis and are presumably down with their plan to make them all immortal.

Like all conquered nations there's plenty of ways to strongarm them to your cause, and thus far Valenwood seems to be solid dominion territory.

They're loyal to the Altmer, because they think the elves did some magic shit with their moon or something. The Khajiit are all drug addicts anyway, they'd be useless no matter who's side they were on.

Hammerfell was able to fight off the dominion without help of a hero of the caliber of the Dragonborn.

They probably already destroyed the Green tower. The White tower may have been reactivated after the Oblivion crisis but then again, it may have been shut down again after the Great War.

Just 400 Nords laid waste to an entire city of Snow elves. Then the rest of them showed up and broke the Mer that attacked them over their knee like a little bitch so badly that the few ones left had to beg for a place to hide in the Dwemer realms. The nords are just as capable, if not more so, than the redguards in the art of war. Remember the only people who have stopped Skyrim from conquering their lands was the Dunmer with the help of the full Tribunal and their Dwemer allies.

What's with all these retards thinking the Empire and the Thalmor are allies?

They're not. They're in an unsteady as fuck ceasefire.

The Empire is poising to strike back at the Thalmor. The fucking emporer says so himself. Shit, he says the Empire would have still won if they kept the war going, but he didn't want to win a war if it meant more than half the population would be dead.

You think there are no high elves in the Thalmor secretly loyal to the empire? Hah, that's funny.

That's why when you go kill the Emporer, he doesn't really give that much of a shit. He's old as fuck and he knows he's got it coming, but he also knows he's got shit set up so that the Empire is going to live on long after his death.

Doesn't work like that. Reality existed before Talos was even born. No one is stopping the nords from worshipping Shor or whoever the fuck. The fact is that these are Nords following the bastardized imperial pantheon that are rebelling. There are plenty of pro-Imperial Nords who invoke Shor instead of Talos and they aren't getting rounded up or taken away by Thalmor.

If they wanted to undo reality there are far more effective means than banning worship of a god that only diehard imperialists care about.

CHIM is esoteric but it's understandable, especially if you understand real-world esoteric ideas enough to compare and constrast.

It is closest to the Carlyle/Evola idea of the hero, knowing the true names of the forces of the universe and transcending them. Well, that's what mantling is, at least. CHIM is the knowledge that you can do this, and the knowledge of how it works in the Elder Scrolls Universe.

The Elder Scrolls cosmology is Gnostic, except the Demiurge(Lorkhan) is the good guy. It's also related to Hinduism and Buddhism because it describes everything as a dream. CHIM is understanding the possibility of Gnosis in the Elder Scrolls universe, and coupling that with the knowledge of the specific routes one must take to achieve that Gnosis.

>>
>>33478912

Except Talos is an upgrade to Shor. Talos was a man(and eventually multiple men) who transcended the human ancestor god Shor(aka Lorkhan, the demiurge).

Talos has an advantage over Shor in that living beings take up his mantle, and so he can act as a living being and become incarnate in more and more living beings. He is a god that literally holds the universe together through his link in blood and spirit to living humans.

Shor has always existed as an entity but his mortal form dies: he only is at full power in the aether. Talos is the fulfillment of Shor, because as long as Talos is a god, Shor's plan for a stable universe continues.

Shor created the world, and Talos transcended Shor while remaining human to become the glue that holds the universe together.

As much as I hate to admit it, the Imperials should control Skyrim. Talos himself founded the Empire. Just because the Empire is being a little bitch right now doesn't mean they have to stay that way. It's obvious that it is easiest t odestroy Thalmor scum via Imperial might than under direction of a pawn of the elves themselves. Besides, signs point to the Dragonborn being an incarnation or avatar of Talos, which would mean the Dragonborn should side with the Empire and lead them into a new age of glory, whilst also freeing everyone from Alduin's dumb ass cycle.

The elves think this will free them of their mortal bonds (just like Gnostics think the demiurge is evil because hurr durr physical existence= enslavement) This would destroy Nirn and everything in it because it had its own divinity (Heart of Lorkhan) and that is what kept the Aldmer alive.

Alduin isn't what Lorkhan wants. The aspect of the Time-Dragon(Aka-Tusk) that is closest to transcending the Demiurge(Lorkhan) is Akatosh.

Alduin wants the world to end, Thalmor want the world to end for humans and for themselves to ascend, Dunmer and Nords want the world to go on and everyone to have a chance to ascend.

You are literally shilling for a god that created a massive repeating concentration camp/lab where lesser spirits are used as guinea pigs in his own attempt to escape.

I'm not talking about the reality that elves are the children of Auriel and humans are the children of Lorkhan and therefore they both are subgradients(emanations, in gnostic terms) of gods.

I'm talking about the actual Thalmor plan, which states "To kill Man is to reach Heaven." Thalmor want to erase mankind from existence so that nobody can mantle Lorkhan like Talos did. That way, they can undo the world. They become gods, while humans lose their individual identity and are absorbed into Lorkhan who no longer is the demiurge of any material universes.

That's the Thalmor theory, at least. How well it would actually work, however...

I think the next game is probably going to be set on the summerset isles on a quest to destroy the thalmor inside-out.

In skyrim, all faction questlines will happen simultaneously a-la daggerfall, which means that Titus Mede will be dead and that the Psijic will be in the possesion of the eye of Magnus (and possibly intervene in the fight against the thalmor), but also the empire is going to be weak and politically divided, which could cause the Thalmor to break truce early and rush for a careless assault on the imperial city and several provinces.

Black arrows represent Dominion movement, Skyrim (blue) should come down on the imperial province through bruma and the colovian highlands after securing their borders, as to engage the weakened Thalmor in a surprise attack.

Red represent Imperial resistance against the thalmor, obviously most will rush to fortify the Imperial city itself, and the thalmor will be parked against the imperials there for a little while, if the nords are timely, they'll be joined by whatever's left of the the other cities and towns in the province in their push to pin the thalmor down against their own siege.

Darker blue/purple/whaterver represents the posibility of cooperation between High Rock, Skyrim and/or Hammerfel. Since High Rock will still be part of the empire, they will have to make a choise, Either they bolster the ranks/provide funds and resources to armies fighting the Thalmor or just shut themselves in and hope for the best. I can see some political turmoil between those who would want to help the empire and those who see their Imperial duty gone as they are cut off from it border-wise.

Hammerfell would likely move in force to the Isles and raid Thalmor docks, however I see them also going for both Kvatch and Anvil [cont.]

>gods don't die permanently

Exactly. The Tribunal became real gods because they became eternal. They made a lasting impact on the cosmology. Disabling the Heart of Lorkhan made them lose their powers, and makes their mortal form die out. Since their mortal form is the impetus of their divine form's actions, their divine form also loses its ability to make further acts as a god that have not already been set up by fate.

But even though their mortal form dies, they still have places reserved in the Aether that would have to be removed through a separate Event to kill them permanently.

Otherwise, someone with access to godhood and the proper level of CHIM could just mantle one of them back into the material world.

Alduin can eat gods too. But gods are powerful enough emanations of the Godhead that they can retain their memories between kalpas.

Mortals, on the other hand, get wiped. In fact, mortal species are bizarrely different between kalpas, based on which gods are most involved in creating the mortal world that time around.

It IS possible for mortals to retain their forms between kalpas, but they have to do really weird stuff and have really weird life cycles to do it. Sloads and Argonians have survived Alduin. Dreughs did to some extent, but came back as animals whereas before they were a sapient race.

And you called me fuckwit. Before the mudshits came up from the south, the people of the Levant, Palestine, and Mesopotamia were the same. They organized in city states and later empires under the same monolithic culture. That's what I was referring to with the Neo-Assyrian Empire thing.

The monotheistic nomad Hebrews of Sinai came up out of the desert and conquered the southern bunch of the Semitic people and absorbed and scattered the Canaanite Phoenicians, and they later became Carthaginians. But original Semitic peoples of the Levant, Palestine, and Mesopotamia are all of the same stock. Subjugated by almost every empire that has been on the planet, they are now almost indistinguishable from the mudshits.

Hammerfell would want to annex both cities as they see the empire gone, If the nords and redguards become allies, the natural movement for hammerfell would be to cut Thalmor reinforcements to mainland completely by hitting them at home and cutting the fastest sea-route.

Im counting that the Redguards can actually cut off Altmer airships too, which Im sure they can.

Meanwhile we have turmoil in both Valenwood and Elsweyr, They're part of the dominion, but both provinces have important dissidence within and they'll strike at Dominion structure there and have their own mini-civil war, the thalmor will demand support from both and they'll likely just get small ammounts of soldiers but very little supplies.

Fuck numidium, let's build Akulakhan. Talos has a physical celestial form, so if he is an incarnation of Lorkhan it could be used to power Akulakhan. We just gotta find some dwarves, they could totally make it happen.

Or just seriously break the dragon and grab the Heart before it is destroyed.

The Dunmer were given Solsthiem by the High King of Skyrim. I'd say they would be willing to look the other way while the Dominion get thrashed. I honestly don't think the Argonians care.

I know what the kalpas are but I thought it was a player theory. Are they actually canon?
Regardless, there is no way the Thalmor know (the only people who might would be Psijic Monks) so they wouldn't know that's what Alduin actually does

Their souls all merged to become Numidium. There's only one dwarf that we know of who didn't get absorbed into the Brass God, and he was tainted by the Divine Disease of Dagoth Ur.

Kalpas are canon. There is mention of Pelinal being able to remember something from a previous kalpa, I forget which lore text exactly. Also, Paarthurnax talks about them in Skyrim's main quest.

If based Yagrum survived, there may be others, still wandering plains of oblivion. Maybe they had colonies or research stations on other Oblivion planes? Hell, maybe they found a derelict battlespire in oblivion and fixed that shit up.

Also, based Divayth Fyr did find a cure for corprus, so maybe he cured Yagrum? I don't know if thats canon though.
>>
>>33480664
The archaeological record disagrees with you. Maybe you're thinking of the Hittite invaders? All of the Mesopotamian peoples used the same writing, had the same architecture, and we absorbed and easily integrated in the various empires to come out of the various city-states of the region before they were steamrolled by Zyklon C himself.

Calling me fuckwit really backs up your point with the much needed emotional touch. Its almost as if you're taking a historical debate personally.

Dunmer are the most natural Allies of the Nords. The Nords gave them Solstheim after Red Mountain exploded, and let their refugees into Skyrim. The Nords along with the Redguards also helped to push most Argonian forces out of central Morrowind .

Hemmerfell along with Skyrim and Morrowind would be unstoppable.
>>
>>33480707

It isn't, Mournhold was destroyed and the Kingdom of Morrowind is still trying to rebuild it. They couldn't do that had the Argonians taken it.

Yes, but the Levant isn't in mesopotamia now is it?

>had the same architecture

Show me a single ziggurat in the Levant.

Again, you're just wrong fuckwit. If you knew anything about archaeology you would know that the spoken and written languages were different and the material culture, namely pottery styles (which is incredibly important in archaeology) are completely different. I'm calling you fuckwit because this is 4chan, sack up or gtfo if it triggers you.

>he was tainted by the Divine Disease of Dagoth Ur.

He probably got the cure, though, what it would do for him in his state is questionable, but at least we know he's probably immortal.... assuming he survived Red Year and the Crysis.

Somehow I imagine him trapsing through the realms inside of a Hyperdimensional Puzzle Box like some sort of Dr. Where with a Tonal Spanner.

Divayth is like 6000 years old or some shit, and his "daughters" are really his clones so they've got some time ahead of them too. Divayth keeps portals to oblivion/battlespires handy for no particular reason, so I'm going to choose to believe they're out their still.

The Dreughs were/are sentient beings. When Akaviri forces invaded Tamriel, Vivec made an alliance with Dreugh kingdoms.

I think it might be the same as giants though. They were told to be on roughly the same footing as the Nords when they came over from Atmora, but something happened, and they became tribal.

The Capital is whichever Great House is the strongest. House Inodril is based in Mournhold and thus was the Capital.

Now that House Redoran is the strongest, the Capital is Blacklight
>>
>>33481189
The capital is Blacklight but the former lands of Mournhold are still within Morrowind, they switched capitals because the Argonians sacked Mournhold but they didn't hold it.

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Mournhold

>Around a year later, Mournhold was sacked by the invading Argonians of Black Marsh and Morrowind's capital was moved to Blacklight.[3] Mournhold was still being rebuilt in 4E 201, a shadow of its former self. Mournhold Temple was renovated and the last traces of Almalexia were removed.[4] Plaza Brindisi Dorom now houses a large building House Indoril uses to accommodate the new priests and pilgrims who come to pay their respects at the temple.[4]

>Dunmer are the most natural Allies of the Nords

I wouldn't put it like that, but you're right, if by some miracle, the Dunmer can be persuaded into helping they would make a pretty legendary Removal of the Altmer, which would drive them back to Summerset.

Once they fall back, they'll have to worry about defending themselves from a unified Dunmer-Redguard-Nord offense on Alinor.


Then it's a matter of wating for Ulfric to crown himself emperor over the "great victory of mankind against the Thalmor menace" He'll be hailed as a hero upon his return to the Imperial city.

The new Tamrielic empire would most likely just be Skryim+ downsized Cyrodiil for a while and then Ulfric will push for High Rock.
>>
>>33481378
Nope, if you are a Christian or a Jew living right now it's possible to go to Muslim heaven.

As well as this Muslims believe that up until shortly before Muhammad Christians and Jews were Muslms but the teachings gradually got corrupted,

>Verily, those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes in Allaah and the Last Day and do righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.”

House Telvanni are still around, bro.

You meet some of them in Skyrim.
>>
>>33481345
I highly doubt, and am almost positive, House Telvanni stand almost unphased. We saw that the College of Winterhold was left virtually untouched while Winterhold, once a mighty city, fell around it. The Telvanni islands are brimming with powerful mages and could easily have protected themselves.

This is further planted by Neloth being found on Solstheim and basically promising he'd induct you a member once he got back to Morrowind when he was finished. Neloth, a high ranking member, speaks nothing bad happening and only good things of the Telvanni's place.

I'm 100% House Telvanni is unphased. The only reason they're not the head of the Council is because most of their members don't give a shit.
>>
>>33481206
>The Dreughs were/are sentient beings. When Akaviri forces invaded Tamriel, Vivec made an alliance with Dreugh kingdoms.

Yeah I recall reading about this, but the dreughs had a kingdom under water or something?

>I think it might be the same as giants though
A complete and utter mystery?
>>
>>33481508
Probably somewhere north of Tear but a little south of Mournhold. Apart from vague details about which cities are currently held by Morrowind we don't actually know that much about it.
>>
>>33481383
Still calling bullshit, everyone knows you need to be able to levitate to enter a telvanni fortress, and argonians fucking suck at magic.
>>
>>33481477
As much as I would love a Redguard-Nord-Dunmar confederacy i realize that wont happen as long as Ulfric is HIgh King of Skyrim. Our only hope is for the Dragonborn to realize Ulfric a shit, kill him and become High King himself. Then we can pursue this most logical course of action.
>>
>>33481572
The Dreughs are an aquatic race, anon.

Not a mystery. Nords and Giants had a falling out, I don't remember what, but according to Nordic legend, Nords and Giants came to Skyrim together and fought side by side as equals.
>>
>>33481592
>everyone knows you need to be able to levitate to enter a telvanni fortress


Wasn't there some event which caused levitation spells to stop working and eventually they were forgotten?
>>
>>33481592
Hist though...

Motherfuckers had them riled up like an anrgy ninja ant swarm... if the Hist didn't shoot lasers or some shit at their shroom towers then they probably just piled body on body until the wizards were out of magicka.

Think those zombies from the World War Z, but sapient and tool using.
>>
>>33481684
Ulfric actually doesn't seem to give that much of a shit about the Dunmer, it's more folks like Galmar who are caught up in the racialist politics of Windhelm.
>>
>>33481684
Ulfric did not seize power when he had the chance and the right. He denied the throne in his very grasp at the storming of Solitude.

He deserves to be High King.
>>
>>33481723
Telvanni still have it figured out.
>>
>>33481688
I know the dreughs were an aquatic race, What I meant to ask was if they had actual castles and cities underwater.

also, where in lore did you read about giants and nords?
>>
>>33481769
During the oblivion crisis yeah because that was crucial to the hist's survival.

Aside from stuff that actually concerns them the hist couldn't care less about whatever warmongering bullshit the Argonians get caught up in, hence why they never helped them out when they were getting enslaved.

It was vague on the Dreugh, but there was a Kingdom.

I can't remember, honestly. I have these days I randomly get super interested in a subject and spend hours pursuing it. It might have been in an Emperor's Guide to the Empire or one of the books detailing Ysgrammor. It's probably obscure, so I wouldn't be surprised if it were retconned.
