Footage of Lady N (cosplaying as http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/2472/hitgirl01.jpg in the second Fireside Chat; MK had http://i.imgur.com/1uyKp9N.jpg) in a Skype chat with MK. A distorted voice, presumably Lady N's, repeats "Michael". An automated voice states, "You have two saved messages". A Morrowind or Oblivion combat track plays possibly in reverse in the background. The message at the end is "You said we would play it".

Uploaded with the description "Michael Kirkbride and Lady Nerevar talk about Cyrus, Redguards, and more." (Referencing the Fireside Chats)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WexzGQUbrGs

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J-agukWPOY plays in the background, and the Bethesda logo as it appears upon Skyrim start-up is shown. A fountain pen writes "You said it would play us". A drawing in MK's style is shown (http://i.imgur.com/gaKQYqz.png). Includes a link to http://www.imperial-library.info/content/1-4-26-190, which is a picture of http://images.wikia.com/elderscrolls/images/1/17/PGE1-13.jpg from PGE1.

Uploaded with the description "complicit".

Footage of MK is shown. http://www.gamesas.com/user/707537-dinmenel/'s forum avatar is displayed many times, notably overlayed onto an image of Lawrence Shtick, the Lead Loremaster of TESO. This http://turnyournameintoaface.com/ was used to create the avatar, but neither "dinmenel" nor "Lawrence Shtick" return the same avatar (though it's possible it's entirely random). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2v9K98RzbHI&list=PLCC2676E23AB41832 plays (correct me if I'm wrong--it's definitely an Oblivion track, but I'm not sure if I linked the right one), among other sounds - a voice saying "recording" (Lady N Skyping again?) and "I watched you as you disappeared", sampled from Tom Waits' "Watch Her Disappear" from his 2002 album Alice. The footage and the song is taken from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXD3StsKCJk. The same video is linked on the words, "seems like we can never have it again" in http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1443737-tsirelsyns-bound/. Near the end, two images flash up (http://i.imgur.com/4ACtLvh.jpg and http://i.imgur.com/8U5BK69.jpg).

Uploaded with the description "disappeared".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqALmcCLy_k

Footage from http://thiscircularparade.com/2011/12/13/the-execution-of-mary-queen-of-scots/ is shown. An x-ray of a rib-cage and lungs flashes with the overlayed text: "...and why are they...especially favored...with immortality...why no immortal...". Seemingly randomly generated ASCII characters are displayed with "authenticate?". Later, the words "initiated transmission" are displayed. "Transmission failure" and "message memospore?" flash. Throughout the video, images ofhttp://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5716/checkthecandles.jpg (possible 8 lit and 1 unlit), a tree, a heart, a depiction of Lokapala, and http://images.uesp.net/4/4a/RG-misc-Forebear_Truce.jpg are shown, as well as the ancient Nordic symbols of a hawk and snake as they appear in Skyrim. There is footage of what appears to be a Bollywood film.

Uploaded with the description "unlisted".

Later, several people emailed the http://memospore@gmail.com/ and received this message:

" &--#60;memospore corrupt&--#62;

What are dragons and why are they especially favored with immortality? Why no immortal bears? And the Gods knew that they had to depart the Mundus, to let it cool. It is the rumbling of the Greybeards that wake him."

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/154911/mem1.jpg, openable on notepad, came with the message. Opened on notepad, the text comes out to http://pastebin.com/2ULERnc3.

The hidden message is, "&--#60;memospore corrupt&--#62; ... What are dragons and ... why are they ... especially favored with ... immortality ... Why ... Why ... Why ... no immortal bears? ... And the Gods knew that they had to depart ... the Mundus ... It is the rumbling ... of the Greybeards ... that wake him." The same message as earlier.

Another file recieved came out, reading http://pastebin.com/uQ2t4ZvM.

The hidden message is,

"and yet mankind was still vulnerable
in their world and
would know no
foul and alien hegemonies and"

We last received a http://imgur.com/g6nSyHGfrom MK, with the following text:

"Boma Kuro (V.O. - CONT'D)

From my apartment I can see past the walls
into the black cloud of their presence.
Behind all that smoke are the indistinct
yurts and horned-skulled posts of the
Kothringi nomads, meant to ward off the
indecencies of the city."

With Black Marsh in the picture, my earlier favouring of the Hist for the foul and alien hegemony seems a tad bit more likely, which makes me happy. Also, holy hell, in all the time I was gone you guys have done work. Actual substance brought to the claim that "He failed so we might know how not to" is incredible - I'd always taken that for given but grasping the actual metaphysical significance of the statement was a bit beyond me.

I feel like we should do more with MK's most recent image, but I've no idea how exactly you'd go about that. I'd try figuring out if it's possible use it as a cypher with anything but there are so many options and I have no idea how to work cryptography, so someone else with that skillset might be needed. But MK called it a code key, and that has to be significant.

Does someone have a clue about MK's sentence : "Dude might be right; feeling the click." ?

New idea, from http://stormcloaca.tumblr.com/post/43163443216 on tumblr:
"and in a stunning display kirkbride reveals himself to be vivec and stops the asteroid where it will remain in the sky until people no longer love him"
...okay. I'm just being silly now. Off to sleep.

Edit: Maybe relevant, but memospore and hist are both plant-related terms? Also, war between jills and hist in KINMUNE does not bode well.

I linked to pastebins of the code in the second Megathread, so feel free to borrow them if you want to clean up the OP.

How did we go from the Arcturian Heresy to the Hist and Black Marsh?
Simply because of the Kothringi?
How are they related to Hjalti and Wulfharth, despite the fact that Tiber "conquered" them?

I'll admit I'm kind of blocking here...

I mostly included it as an off-hand mention. If you're expecting substantiation I'll have to direct you elsewhere - I've got nothing and am far from as adept at the lore as others who truly spin these tales are. I'm mostly just making basic connections and hoping that causes others to fire off like more active and important neurons in whatever gigantic brain we've become a part of.

And the fact that I just typed that out means it's really late. Geesh, that's a bad... simile, I think.
