Help needed with lore snippets for a mod

This Kwama egg is one of several such eggs decorated by the famed Dunmer artist Indaryal Hlaalu. Most are assumed to have been destroyed in the eruption of Vvardenfell Mountain.

This orichalc egg is believed to have come from a Yokudan temple to the goddess Morwha.

The petals glazed on to this egg come from q Briarheart plant, suggesting its origin in Skyrim's Western Reach. Covens of witches of mixed Breton and Reachman ancestry use the Briarheart in a variety of rituals.

This stone egg was used to bash in the skull of Gortwog Gro-Nagorm during a 4th era sacking of Orsinium.

This Jewel encrusted gold egg was buried with King Lysandus of Daggerfall. It later reappeared in the city of Daggerfall during Lysandus' ghostly siege of the city, with the word Vengeance written around it in blood.

This uncomfortable-looking egg was put in the nether regions of Ordinators to give them that extra crotchety demeanor.

Chicken egg - Ready to hatch one of those full-grown, crime-reporting poultry native from Skyrim.

This sunbird egg is in fact just a trinket that may or may not be an actual representation of a real sunbird egg, since no one but a few knows if they actually lay eggs, or what sunbirds really are for that matter.

Great stuff! Thank you all so much. I may have to make some minor adjustments to some of the quotes to fit them in right but you'll still be credited for the work regardless. That's 36 so far. Only 214 to go! :)

This Dwemer bauble is the only existing model of the Atomos, and it has been mistakenly labelled an egg.

This egg is engraved with the image of a bearded man surrounded by chairs. The chairs are regarding the man.

This limestone egg is naturally formed in the caves of western Daggerfall, and is commonly used as a pillow in a privateer's hold.

This Nordic egg doesn't make sense. Nords don't lay eggs!

This black egg is said to have been brought forth by Mephala herself. It is said to whisper barely audible threats and temptations to its bearer.

This is the famous 'Bear Egg,' said to be found by Uru the Sack, who won fifty septims in a bet by 'discovering' it. The observant eye notices faint fingerprints on it's surface, as well as a somewhat pronounced mould lines.

Also:

This Fishy Stick was presented to Tiber Septim on his 25th birthday by King Cuhelcain for his service to the crown.

The Yokudan R'G'doon'yushuda Egg is a relic of the long-since-defunct Yolk-Sword Liturgy, by which the old swordswamis of the now Sunken West derived incredibly strong, self-repairing blades from living yolk of the eggs of the R'G'doon'yush jungle fowl. Although this one is still fresh, you're not a trained swordswami, so you'd only end up with egg on your face.

This leathery and tentacled egg is a Sload one. Rumour has that the owner of the egg will die a horrible death.

This egg is accompanied by a writ of authenticity, by which its Khajiit seller claims it is a Lunar egg.

This egg of unmelting ice is of Falmer construct. Its function is unknown, but on certain days of the year it softly glows.

This obsidian egg fell from the heavens, to kill a Daggerfall noble minutes after he was married. No-one knows why.

This smoke egg used to be a crystal device for scrying. After it was attempted to attune it to the timeless time of the Middle Dawn, it never functioned again.

This clockwork egg is a Dwemer eggtimer.

This kwama egg is a rare sight in skyrim after the red year destroyed most of the egg-mining industry. Better eat it soon.

This egg was carved out of petrified mushroom, and is engraved with images telling the story of the red year.

Thanks everyone. I'd like some more but I think I can work with what I've got. The mod should be up in early May. I'll let you all know when it's been posted. Thanks again!

This fabled Egg of the Never Ending Brew was the most interesting egg in the World. It was not always meant to be found, but when it was, parties would follow of such magnitude that Sanguine himself was forced to reform in the Waters of Oblivion, as his sphere of influence was usurped and his form shattered by the violent rupturing of his second aperture. Not much is known of this Egg but it is believe to be a relic of the Dawn Era.

This egg is just a regular chicken egg. Not much else to it. You can eat it, throw it at Novices from the Bard's College, sell it, toss it or give it away to the needy anologous children of Skyrim! Or you can set it somewhere. It, like all the eggs in Skyrim will not decompose or go bad! Maybe this egg is more of a miracle than you first thought?
