Do you think there are any Sixth House remnants in the prese : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

Could any sixth house remnants survive to the present time? just like how the mythic dawn did? They also seem much larger then the mythic dawn as a faction. Maybe they founded Dagoth Ur's Golden mask after his defeat, and is now worshiping the godly mask as the one true god.

Doubtful, but possible. Dagoth Ur's defeat was pretty well publicized and celebrated (and then, to boot, everything exploded).

The Mythic Dawn has the advantage because their deity is truly immortal. His defeat in Oblivion merely cast him back. Ur's defeat was decidedly more permanent (we have so far been lead to believe).

Unlikely, their identity was defined by Dagoth Ur and Corprus. Both are gone now.

Spoiler

In Morrowind, you destroy the Heart of Lorkhan which essentially destroys Dagoth Ur and his kin. Not to mention, you make several assaults on their bases and kill their leaders, ash vampires, ash servants, etc. Furthermore, the dreamers/sleepers "awake" and thank you for rescuing them, further reducing Sixth House numbers. They have lost the Blight as their main means of protection and expansion, they have lost their main base of Kogoruhn, they have lost ALL of their senior leaders, many of the junior followers and many are likely dead after Red Mountain erupted.

So no, there's probably no remnants.

I don't think any are left. With their connection to the heart gone, Blight gone as well, leaders dead, and Dagoth Ur dead, they likely fell apart

Dagoth Ur was thought dead once before; even Vivec is unsure whether he can be truly destroyed.

And while he was presumed dead... well, slumbering, the sixth house stagnated in isolation.

The volcanic eruption would have most likely taken care of most cult pockets, as they seemed to have been largely contained only on Vvardenfell.

Also, if Dagoth Ur truely didn't die, I imagine him being blown away like Team Rocket after the eruption.

Team rocket always returns

Dagoth Ur: "Red Mountain was merely a setback!"

» Mon May 07, 2012 9:52 pm

"Just as planned!"

They survived the original ACTIVE culling of their house after the Dwemer went poof'd. I'm sure their are some still around.
