Last question -

The Eye of Argonia

bingo

your turn.

Which Daedric Prince do Khajitt call the Skooma Cat?

I remember reading this somewhere and I am positive that it is Sheogorath.

Correct. Your turn

ok its been 10 mins.



my essence is strongest of all in this plane,
kin to one who is not quite sane.

i am said to be what i am not,
but alas i shall never be caught.

most revere me with highest regard,
many tales of me, sings the bard.

i am as old as the nerevarine,
and many times him i have seen.


who what am i?

I get the first half, but could you explain the second?


Vivec.

It's because instead of morrowind there was meant to be another TES: Adventures game called 'The Eye of Argonia'. At least I think that's the story.

nope its not vivec.

and the riddle is talking about how the eye of argonia was an idea for the next elder scrolls game but it never happened, so it was suppose to happen but didnt.

Doesn't that break the fifth rule, though? I don't remember seeing any lore mentioning that.

its and easter egg from tribunal, the guy who is writing the flyers yells "im looking for the eye of argonia" so it is mentioned in the unmodded game, therefore it breaks no rules.

EDIT: http://uesp.net/wiki/Tribunal:Easter_Eggs

To which he responds: "Congratulations. You have produced an original and entertaining excuse. Completely unbelievable, of course, but none the worse for that. Never heard a believable excuse before, anyway. Very well. You may go. I'd like to preserve our secret office... -snip-" Doesn't mention anything about Eye of Argonia as a cancelled sequel.

well my bad, if you feel like my question has nothing to do with MW, then i will go and give my self 20 lashes for creating a bad question, is that better? anyways the question has been answered and i have put another one up, so this discussion is over.

EDIT: by the way you just broke rule number 7 if you feel like getting technical about everything.

It takes two to tango, so darn.

Anyways, back on topic. Sotha Sil, perhaps?

once again close but nope.
the second line refers to sotha sil though

I'm going to say Almalexia. She's got the strongest soul (which is more or less equivalent to essence, isn't it?), she's divinely related to Dagoth Ur, she's said to be benevolent but isn't, even if nobody will ever believe otherwise (other than a select few), she's regarded as benevolent, there's certainly bardic tales about her, she's more or less as old as Nerevar (which I'm guessing is what aSaPp!5 meant), and she's certainly had the chance to see the original a fair few times. In the literal meaning, she's probably also had a good chance of seeing a fair few nerevarine candidates.

Only alternative I can think of would be Azura. She's a daedric prince so her essense is bound to be strong. She's kin of Sheogorath. She's regarded as a "good" god but really isn't, though being a got she gets away with all her scheming. She certain is as old (in fact a hell of a lot older) than both Nerevar and the Nerevarine and she's seen quite a lot of nerevarine candidates too. Seeing as Nerevar was a dedicated follower of hers, she's probably also "seen" the original a fair few times.

almalexia is correct
and the second line refers to sotha sil not dagoth ur, since all 3 of the tribunal are related.

your turn

Nah, I'll pass. It's friday night where I live and I'm a bit too alcoholically inhibited to think up anything good.

Can I take the turn I missed because of my internet failure?

Willow Anther Galore,
You'll find me there,
A front for smuggling perhaps?,
Orc Guards.. Beware,
I'm unique in shape and size,
But take a bit and you'll get a surprise,
I'm not that unique after all,
All you have to do is make an Orc fall.

Pretty rubbish, but I'm tired. Might have given it away with the last part.

The muffin.

Correct! Your turn. ;D

*digs up list o' riddles*
Ehem, right then. I think this one's correct.

At the end, I am
On a pillar of pain
In a land which hates feet
My fall will never be the same

Traveled bravely with the dragons
There with them, I don't like to be
Dwemer and Dunmer, one without a flag on
Pisces, you could at least have given me!

Who or what am I?

i know this is probably wrong but its worth a shot.


is it tarhiel? the thing with falling and pain had me thinking of him hitting the ground, and traveling with dragons makes me think of flying.

Red Mountain?
