This just makes me realise how screwed Tamriel is now. Everything's gone to hell... I'm sad now.

My Question is, since Vvardenfell has had like...half of it's island obliterated.
What of Lord Nerevar? Assuming that figure still exists, I am wondering if there will be any mention
of events that happened afterwards concerning him.

Vivec was taken by the Daedra. Yes

But will there be a War breaking out in Morrowind because of this? I doubt that the Dunmer will let their
land be conquered again without resistance.

The King of Worms couldn't of been that fool :rolleyes: the real Mannimarco has to be out there somewhere...

Oh I've seen plenty to dislike the Trial.

I've just always enjoyed it for it's depiction of Vivec's character.

Not sure if this is true, but I remember reading that now that a large chunk of Morrowind has been destroyed, a very large amount of Dunmer moved to Solstheim and some event went to Skyrim. I wonder if that means there will be Dunmer settlements in Skyrim?

Yes, there will be. It will be quite a delight to call them outlanders

No, he pretended to go along with a trial in order to publically humiliate Azura and (temporarily) break her power, and then left for Aetherius. "The Trial" didn't officially become canon, but aspects of it became canon -- the fact that Vivec has departed the Mundus, for example.

Aradal wondered what happened to Ocato. When I read Keyes' novel "The Infernal City", it never mentioned Ocato; he was apparently long gone when Titus Mede defeated the last warlord of the Imperial City and declared himself Emperor. (I don't have the book in front of me at the moment, but Titus mentions the warlord's name and says that he (Titus) took the Imperial City with only a few thousand troops.)

From what I've been reading on the forums, the remnants of the Empire have been killing off the Blades by the time of "Skyrim". I wonder when that started, and by whom -- maybe Titus, or even before he came to power.

Interesting... If the remnants of the Empire were killing off Blades, I doubt it was by Ocatos hand.

You know that there's gonna be a book talking about how there is a new Madgod who happens to be the Champion of Cyrodiil - and all the followers of Sheogorath just brush the book off as the writings of some crazy idiot.

Taking it a step further, if you have the book on you when you summon the madgod at his shrine, he'll comment on it!

"Ah, you've read my book it seems? I wrote it you know! At least I think I did. Maybe I didn't. I've changed so much since I was mortal. And yet nothing has changed at all. Infact I just visited Dagon again last week. Old habits die hard, even after so long. He tried to kill me right away like always, but for some reason I just love going there and taking his stuff. Grabed so many orbs that I almost couldn't move this time. Say, did you know carrots used to have weight? Ya, that whole weightless thing was me. Hilarious, huh? Carrots! The new cheese...hey, Haskil - Get me some carrots and cheese ready. I'm maken myself hungry... Wait, what was I talking about? Who are you? You want something?"

Win.

That was absolutely beautiful.

I'd like to see a shrine to Jyggalag. I also want a chance to liberate Morrowind.

Now Im confused, can someone linky something to where I can read a synopsis of all that has happened between the events Of Oblivion and the begginign of Skyrim.

» Fri Jun 17, 2011 1:46 am

Mmmmmmm...... a novella of cannon lore covering the last 200yrs, now that would be a nice addition to the pre-order collector's edition.

That would make the collectors edition completely worth it

I personally fear much of these questions won't even be touched upon.
With dragons around, I think there's no reason to dwell on the past
Except for in books, of course, they'll hopefully have some answers.

So far, we know of nothing that's happened except the events of the Infernal City, there's also another novel coming out in September.

When you guys say Daedra has taken Vivec.. What does taken mean. Like they killed him or he became a god. Never played MW just curious. Also how cool would this quest be. You are dreaming of when Titus took the imperial city and You are a guard of the tower and you watch all of your friends die and then finally you get killed and you wake up. It could be like that one quest from the mages guild where you are trapped in the dream world and the dream world had all of those cool lighting effects.

Why would we be dreaming of Titus Mede's ascension?

To uncover the secret of how to defeat alduin.

Don't forget that the Infernal City (and the second book) only take place about 40 years after the Oblivion Crisis. If already so much has changed in that time period, think what else might have happened in the 160 years that followed.

For all we know the Empire might have gained back some of it's lost power, or at least tried to reclaim a few of the seceded provinces. There may have been bloody wars and political maneuvering we currently know nothing about. You really think the Thalmor have been twiddling their thumbs for the last two centuries since their rebirth? Maybe dunmer have managed to win back a small part of Morrowind (what the hell would argonians do with a devastated, ash-choked and barren land anyway? They'd feel more comfortable living in their native swamplands). Maybe High Rock has degenerated back into small rival kingdoms and cities (seems likely, unless the Empire still manages a firm hold on them) etc.

I hope the Dunmer have reclaimed some of their lands to resurrect the glory of Resdayn under true Veloth principles

I cried when I read this. Both because of the win, and because I now realize that my poor, poor Oblivion character has become Mistress Therana.

It actually kind of saddens me that they are making books, as I odnt know if they are really canon and have full aprooval.
