Shift the blame to cover your own failures. The Elves taught you well.

Do you even remotely know who I am?

Remember EP and DC that even though we are enemies we have a even more hateful enemy in which we should destroy first and let that be AD! Their pride should be eliminated from this world as it would only lead to destruction in the end!

See I like the elves....kind of while I enjoy their racial,cultural and aesthetic differences I just can't play as an elf having played through oblivion sevreal times over the years I have only just created a file as an all magic altmer I love the history and going from the elven history in genereal they seem to have a better history of being fair,advancing knowledge and better standards of living for all then the races of men maybe with the exception of the redguards.

(I've been watching the elder scrolls lore show on YouTube done by shoddy caste)

I will however be playing as an imperial on one of my play throughs and may be a defector and come over to the aldmeri side.

The Bosmer are merely recycling nutrients in a more expeditious fashion then letting them rot in the ground. It's carbon neutral...don't want to violate the green pact you know...and someone has to counter the global warming brought on by the irresponsible humans.

If anything it's humans that are to prideful they think just because they destroyed the ayelid elves they now have a right to rule over a superior species.

Those silly hippies and their 'green pact'. The 8 divines would never encourage cannibalism! Those heathens and their pagan spirit worship are free to do what they want in the comfort of their own forest, but ill not let a mer declare man as savages when their own dance in a circle in the woods praising the 'forest spirit' and munch on khajit burgers.

A superior species wouldn't have multiple races go extinct/go primal just from a little conflict! Sounds like the mer have a Napoleon complex with their need to make up for all the bad decisions so many of their people have made.

FYI... Ayleids are not extinct. Many Bosmer and Bretons carry their genes. Some Bosmer with latent Ayleid genes can give birth to Ayleids[Mankar Camoran] A good chunk of Ayleid co-exist with the Bosmer in the vast forests of Valenwood.

The Nords were hunting the Falmer almost 500 years after Saarthal, and well past even the Dragon Wars. That's not an accident. The Dwemer's cruelty actually allowed to them survive, albeit disgustingly cruelly.

Pride? The Altmer have no history waging campaigns of conquest for glory. That goes to the Padhome aligned humans. The one time the Altmer did attempt conquest... ended up with them saving the Bosmer from Khajiit aggression, saving the Khajiit from a plague... and unifying the Bosmer and Khajiit. Well now, how about that?!

The Ayleids worshiped the Aedra and Daedra equally. Auri-El was still their chief deity.

So says the humans whom have actual blood on their hands. And it persists too, as the Redguards and Bretons attempt genocide on the Orcs numerous times. They then use the Orcs for their alliance. Then after Tiber's reign, they try to wipe out the Orcs another two or three times, despite the Orcs showing loyalty, and proving they are not monsters.

Nords wipe out the Falmer, then prey on the Dwemer, Dunmer, and at a time, even the Bretons.

Redguards wiped out the indigenous humans living on Hammerfell before their arrival, and then continue their bloodlust for Elven blood by joining up with the Bretons in killing Orcs. The ancient Redguards, the Yokudans, exterminated the Left-Handed Elves.

Imperials betrayed the loyal Ayleids whom saw the atrocities of their rival city-states[almost half of the Ayleids defected from Umaril and layed their lives down for Alessia.]

Your move.

perfect answer!

also i have alredy said it more than once , Skyrim is based on the latest era we know of and there , high elves are the de facto rulers despite the fact that a de jure human empire exists xD

the white-gold concordat gives the high elves complete dominance over you poor humans xD

And the Thalmor's brutality is in response to centuries of Human blood-letting, and in direct retribution of Talos unleashing Numidium on Alinor.

The Nords are having their religion threatened now? Boo-hoo. If the Falmer deserved their "punishment" for sacking a single Nordic city. Then the Nords deserve to have their Man-God erased and their way of life subjugated for his cruel act of unleashing a dooms-day machine that alters the orbit of planets and defys time, onto Alinor where the Altmer were just minding their own business.

As far as I'm aware, Mankar Camoran is an Altmer (correct me if I'm wrong) as he's classed as a High Elf.
So the falmer bit off more than they can chew, but the falmer made the first move none the less.


Maybe not altmer by name, but all elves share ancestral ties to the altmer.

And yet they revered the princes enough to be rewarded with vast amounts of daedra, and viewed by their chief diety as being in the wrong, so much so that the blood of Auri-El was given to another race willingly to help them rise up against the ayleids!

I would wager the heinous torture at the hands of the ayleids to appease the princes is sufficient blood on their hands to show the cruelty the mer are capable of.

And yet, they initially came in peace - with trading and cooperation. That is, until the mer forced their hand.

Not gonna lie, dem reguards are nuts.

While half is an overstatement, it's true some became the collateral damage after the ingrained fear from generations of slavery and torture took hold in alessian society.


Man, multi quotes with a phone is hard lol

Silence! The humans will never again be slaves to the mer race! United we shall defeat you, so stand down or face the same fate as your ayelieds cousins for their sin. You have been warned at least

And here I thought we were only drawing on 2nd era lore!

Tiber Septum. Greatest mortal to walk Tamriel. Man.

Let's not forget it took 3 eras and the Oblivion crisis to finally give the mer the gusto to retake Cyrodil.

Keep the seat warm. Pushing north to the nords and the Atmorans ... well ... sounds like history it's about to repeat itself!

Tiber had to use mer technology to even dare attack the altmer.

I wasnt aware of this, so a man masterfully used mer technology better than mer? That guy, man.

Take a look at Mankar. He is darker than every other Altmer in the game by far.[his skin-tone is on par with an average Bosmer.] Add in his ability to wear the Amulet of Kings[an AYLEID artifact first and fore-most], and his paradise is based on an Ayleid palace. His children are also very dark-skinned. They all have black hair. That's strong Ayleid genes right there.

The Ayleids were NOT UNIFIED. They were just like the Ancient Greeks if you need a IRL example. Each Ayleid city-state had their own rules and religious veneration and practices. Auri-El was universally the chief diety. White-Gold Tower was the "Athens" of Ayleidoon, and Umaril was their Lord high General whom a majority of City-states answered too. But he was not their Emperor. The Ayleids did not have an Emperor, just like how the Ancient Greek "Empire" did not have an emperor. You cannot generalize the Ayleids.

The other half of the Ayleids were more-then-willing to not only help humanity, but sit a human on the throne in return for political advisemant and vassal-ship. Humanity betrayed them and forced them into exile. Those that were too slow to run, were killed.

The Marukhati Selectives[humans] were also so extreme, they put the Thalmor's goals to shame.

Honestly using the Brass Golem, which probably is responsible for the disappearance for the dwemer was a careless move.
