Today I was reading about random stuff and found a page about this Glowworm Cave. I was amazed when I saw some of the pictures, not that I didnt know that there are glowing fungus, but I didnt expect to see something so close to the falmer caves we see in the game. I found it interesting and thought it might be worth to share.

It even sounds like a Falmer Hive.

Yes definitely got the feel of Falmer domain about them, nice find!

Def looks like the inspiration for the Falmer!

Awesome! Blackreach anyone?

I wonder if someone's actually gone to it in DragonPlate armor.

Looks and sounds like one

Took me hours to find 30 crimson nirnroot the first time I played in Blackreach.

You never know, it could be. Maybe a developer for Skyrim is from or has been to New Zealand. That country has just about everything (geologically), which is why movies like LOTR/The Hobbit were shot there.
