Does anyone know of a website that can sort of quickly get you up to speed on TES Lore through Oblivion?

UESP?

I just read the Pocket Guide to the Empire. I frankly don't care about some of the more obscure lore topics, it'll just wind up bugging me if I come across inconsistencies in game.

The http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1112211-how-to-become-a-lore-buff/.

Or, in an even more condensed form, the http://www.imperial-library.info/content/pocket-guide-empire-and-its-environs-third-edition.

Go to the Lore forum and check out the "How to Become a Lore Buff" sticky - it should get you up to speed relatively fast, so long as you're ready to read all the in-game books it links (I haven't yet, but I've been more interested in the metaphysical stuff than the specific history...). Another good way (though it isn't fast at all) is to actually read the books in game - so you can get the context to some of them and everything.

The one Lady Nerevar linked to right above your post?

Now, Now some people don't use their eyes to their full potential, be kind!

You might also find it interesting to read the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:The_Infernal_City/Plot_Summary

Those:

and

are cool links - Thanks, too ! :icecream:

there is also the lore forum under the elderscrolls index. other than that you best bet is one of those links above. or google it, that will get results, idk if they will be good ones...

Thanks for all the info... really appreciate it. Don't have much time for gaming so the links and what not really help me out.
