Or "The Elder Scrolls Discussion Thread I" if you are boring.
Greetings, all souls who here arrived. Whether you are an old scholar, beholder of secrets known and unknown, or a young discipline still unfamiliar to the world's wonders - Or even an outsider who finds himself lost - I bid you a warm welcome.
Herein, on this world without wheel, shall be had the doubtless first of a series of informed Discussions, intricate Analyses, and wild Speculation - Though primarily mere casual Conversation - On The Elder Scrolls, of its games, its lore, and its obscure mysteries. But first, a few words of wisdom:
Share nothing that is neither useful nor amusing. Your studies are to happen uninhibited by the crime of sophistry, devoid of hatred and conflict inane. The world we explore herein is unrestricted by orthodox and limiting linearity, instead it is mythopoeic, embracing and encouraging of subjective and disparate views, of the most wild speculation and works of fancy. This is the Code of C0da: There is no Canon where we are headed.
The proverb of Vehk above teaches you on the obtaining of knowledge, though you must learn its depths elsewhere. Come slow, and bring four keys.
The Ending of the Words is ALMSIVI.

His garments were made from implications of meaning, and the egg looked at them three times. The first time Vivec said: 'Ha, it means nothing!' After looking a second time he said: 'Hmm, there might be something there after all.' Finally, giving At-Hatoor's garments a sidelong glance, he said: 'Amazing, the ability to infer significance in something devoid of detail!' 'There is a proverb,' At-Hatoor said, and then he left. | ||
