Did the Orsinium Orcs Suffer Malacath's Curse?

Post » Tue Aug 21, 2012 10:59 pm

In Skyrim the Orcish Stronghold of Logashbur are suffering a curse because they "turned their backs on Malacath", I assume that means they either started worshiping another diety or just didn't worship anything anymore... I remember reading somewhere that the Orcs of Orsinium wanted to seem more "civil" to the rest of the world or something like that so they ceased their worship of the prince of mundane slavery for one considered to be more "civil". If im not wrong on that last part, wouldn't it be reasonable to think the Orcish capitol would suffer the same curse Logashbur suffers in Skyrim? Or did they do something to prevent it or did Malacath not care about the capitol of Orcs but care about a tiny Stronghold, or perhaps Bethesda just thought of the curse when they made Skyrim? (please ignore anything that looks odd or out of place in my spelling or word placement, I did this off my phone because my internet is out ATM :/ )

Back in Era Three, Gortwog tried to reintroduce Trinimac, Malacath before Boethia poop-shoot'd him, into Orc-Town religious life.

It's something when your odorbund namesake has a mind of its own. Is more famous than you.

Like that ending scene in Men in Tights. With prince john.

Well, really, the whole thing with Largashbur wasn't so much that the orcs there turned their back on Malacath. The then chief Yamarz was a pansy and let giants (Giants!) muck up Malacath's shrine, take their stuff, and kill a bunch of orcs in the process. Malacath tells you as much when the shaman Atub first summons him.

Mmmm... I haven't done that quest yet being the second I accepted the quest to clear up the curse, all Daedra hearts in Skyrim disappeared, I also have been too lazy to go up to Dawnstar and do Dagon's quest which I remember you kill a lot of Daedra in which are bound to drop their hearts :/
