no,

At Delphines age she has most likely gone through Menopause.. this is irreversible..
a cure disease potion would not help because its not a disease, its how the human body ages...

Without something vague in lore I am not aware of that lets a person turn back their biological clock, she will never be able to have kids..
And I know of no such magic within lore...


Im sure you will just ignore this post though...

To be honest Qis neither Mara nor Dibella have enough power/blessing for your scenario to happen. Although Zenithar would be proud of them at least.

Only one who would be happy to lend a hand is Sanguine. But that menopause/ED still might be too much for ol' Uncle Sanguine.

Daedra may be powerful, but they can not turn back the Biological Clock...

we see nothing in TES games or lore that has that power...

If there was some form of magic to turn back the Biological clock, you can guarantee every Noble in Nirn would Utilize it..

since Delphine has surely gone through Menopause, she can NEVER have children...

Qis, are you aware of what Menopause is and what causes it?

There is no way to reverse it..

I think they are happy -- they are married to their job.

thats more of a gameplay thing then lore, prevents them from having to make another body mesh just for Argonians.

Bretons are considered humans. They have some elven ancestry, but that should have been pretty watered down through the centuries. And as others have stated, Bretons seem to have pretty much the same lifespan as other humans in the lore.

Who's to say when the Menopause begins in a fictional world, if indeed it happens at all?

Paedophilia isn't having six with an age gap between a man and a woman, paedophilia is having six with children, and Delphine is far from being a child.

Well, they ARE human, so I presume their bodies function like humans in our world. Btw, I'm sure menstruation is mentioned in some in-game book. Probably "The Real Barenziah". :tongue: I could be wrong, though.

There are also no signs of the waste that must fill those buckets that are placed everywhere, or any other kinds of waste either, no visibly pregnant women, no babies or toddlers, no cubs or foals or lambs, almost no insects, no washed clothes hanging to dry somewhere, no fat people... shall I go on? Just because something isn't there in the game, doesn't mean it isn't there in the lore.

4 pages discussing if Delphine and Esbern have a thing for each other.

6 pages in the spoiler section about the morality of whether or not a certain old lady should...be released from her mortal coil.

Oh Bethesda forums, how I adore you.

But seriously...

As long as they are consenting advltS, who cares of the age gap. A fifty/sixty year old lady in love with a seventy/eighty year old man? Hey, if they consent and like each other, I don't see the problem. I mean, look at Delphine. Does she, in any way, look like a child, or a young lady? Put her next to Ysolda for example, she looks and acts old enough to be Ysolda's mother! Point is, Delphine is a woman pushing into the elderly catagory. Now, don't get me wrong, if Esbern were interested in Ysolda (who looks to be about in her 20s/30s), I would think he'd need to back off and go find himself a lady closer to his age. (Besides, Ysolda is already taken in my game, by my Dovahkiin.)

And as for the wastes...well, we don't see Dovahkiin using the restroom and why should we? Presumably, Dovahkiin takes care of his/her bodily needs off-camera, or when we're not playing the game. This isn't the Sims, ffs, I don't need to have to quickly rush Madame Dovahkiin to the nearby bushes before she pees in her dragonplated armor.

I don't see anything wrong if Esbern interested in Ysolda either, they are both advlts and they choose for themselves.

We can make our character as old and as young as we can, and we can get married in Skyrim. There is nothing wrong the old marrying the young or the young marrying the old. It is love, and love know no age...and in Skyrim there is the Divine and Daedra influences.

Just give a chance to Esbern, he's lucky not become crazy like his neighbors in the Rat Way

And it all depends on the individuals' life experiences. For example, if Esbern had remained abstinent.

Please eat me, Alduin. Now.


OK, fair enough. If Ysolda was interested in Esbern, and he to her, then they should get together. You're right. :]

My immediate reaction to an old man loving a woman whose clearly younger than he is is probably going to be, "Uh, dude? You might want to get someone closer to your age." But if she, as an advlt, agrees and likes him in return, then there shouldn't be anything wrong with that.
