The Prophet of Landfall appears to be a Scarab Man. Perhaps he created/is/used C0DA.

I believe he is more likely a locust. A Red locust or maybe an Ash locust or even a Heart locust. Lorkhust.

Sounds like pirate scabies, after a tryst down the Barbary coast.

I thought of this right before I read it. /tes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':tes:' />

Edit: What if CHIM is self-awareness. Not radiant AI. The Tower, then, is the game disk. (A wheel turned sideways -> I)

Vivec left because he's not on the Oblivion game disk.

Now I really love TES /tes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':tes:' />

Edit II: From MK - "To the close dreamers, don't forget the Amaranth. There *is* one step beyond CHIM, but you're right in that it is not godhood. It's the flowering of a statehood where the images you give birth to in your dream-- stolen (?) from first dreamer-- wakes up. Wails knowing free will. And begins to dream in the same way. Children of liberty without end, and then the music lives forever as a pirate radio tuned against the rules of Heaven and the vulgarities of Hell."

Because true AI renders the developer/writer unnessecary. The dream no longer needs its dreamer.

Oh Aka for our shared madness I do this.

C0DA seems to be "time", from that discussion: http://www.gameskyrim.com/loveletter-terminology-t64326.html

All this is chinese to me...

I explained this already. Digitals were the five fingers of the left hand, the black hand that touches Memory. What you read is apotheosis of the Prophet, standing outside the universe on the "mountain peak," looking into creation. From here, he can reenter creation.

History was the future contemplating how he came to be. That's how Aka's spaceship appears eternal and why Mundus stands strong, through Thalmor efforts to undermine it.

So, the ultimate tower exists, and Thalmor loathe to know it. Oh, and this is why there will always be a new, gimmicky, mainstreamed TES video game.

Excuse the Necro, but I feel a sense of importance in this. I cannot quite place why that is.

Why do people leave c0da http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Coda_Flower on Vivec's Statues in Morrowind? There are http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:36_Lessons_of_Vivec,_Sermon_26 of them.

-Coda flowers have only one positive alchemical property, levitation. They also exude light/glow in the dark. I feel that has some significance here as well. showing us the way to rise to enlightenment?

Sorry for the 11ish year old bread crumbs. Finally started playing Morrowind again. This is probably the most indepth easter egg I have ever encountered, or I need a damn tinfoil hat. What does it mean? I still don't understand C0da all that well either.
