okay so The Elder Scroll is suppose to give the reader knowledge as the price of looking at it now of course we don't know the writer of the Elder Scroll now it is stated that the Elder Scroll can look both ways and up and down and the Elder Scroll is suppose to be a piece of the divines and OMFG can someone tell me straight forward the truth what the heck is the Elder Scroll and yes i know two things already about it 1.it's a scroll and 2. and it's very special

youll learn about it in the main quest

It's believed the divines wrote the Elder scrolls, and records all possible futures, or somthing like that.. Also, wrong section.

because unfortunately I'm becoming like Septimus Signus so if anyone can help me out before i reach that POINT that would be great

I thought I had a basic grasp of the concept until I read your post containing horrible grammar which totally confused me. I think it's supposed to be a divine text, written by a god that has the ability to look into the past and future but can also serve as a sort of worm hole to travel through space and time. In other words, an Elder Scroll is something Einstein would've love to write some insanely complicated mathematical equations about.

If your looking for lore on an elder scroll, your best bet is UESP. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Elder_Scrolls

It's unclear who wrote the Elder Scrolls. They may not have been written at all.

From what I gather, the scrolls are simply more a consequence of existence than a work of authorship. The Gods themselves are often intrigued and impressed, even fearful, of the scrolls. We know from Oblivion that the power of an Elder Scroll can even undo the workings of the Daedric Lords.

So... they seem to be more a part of reality. Leftover chunks that express all things, all times, all places. They are a part of creation, but they were not created. They simply exist.
And, as often as not, they don't.

You can see, sometimes they Are and sometimes they Aren't. That's the fascinating thing about them.

you just made me laugh pretty hard

I rather think of 'em as pieces of existence itself. Reading the scroll gives you knowledge of existence, which can be past, future, or present. Utilizing the scroll changes the existence itself, allowing you to do things not supposed to be possible, like undoing a Daedric curse, or warping time

Trying to understand the elder scrolls will drive one insane, each elder scroll acts differently and no one can actually read them without going mad or blind and the ones who can read them have sworn never to tell what contains in them.

Solution: Have somebody that's already mad read them.

no. your best bet is the Imperial Library. All you can glean from the UESP is misconception.

Give Sheogorath an Elder Scroll. Break existence.

Aren't the Elderscrolls suppose to obtain all knowledge, power, every event, creation...?

according to lore, yes.

That's not very nice. UESP works hard to have citations for everything, which leads to their lore being rather straightforward and direct. That doesn't mean they are wrong, just literal.
Being different does not mean they are wrong.

Oh no UESP is good for in game stuff, but the lore writers are stubborn idiots who don't pay attention to things.

classy.

My question about the Elder Scroll is:


I mean come one.....its the frickin Elder Scroll!!!!!

But its pretty much useless to you after the quest

Because you gave it to him.

Plus if you don't have enough gold to buy everything every by then you are doing something wrong.

I dont think even beth know exactly what a scroll is.

No one knows what the elder scrolls really do or what their exact purpose is in the mortal world.

Parrth puts it pretty blatantly. They're fragments of creatia, but exist outside the Mundus. What they're full potential is up to anyone to guess, but they have been mostly used to view events that may or may not happen.
