    In our latest Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim video we delve into the Deep Elves, the Dwemer.
    Dragonbreaks: • The MOST Confusing Con...
    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an open world action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series, following The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2011.
    The game's main story revolves around the player character and their quest to defeat Alduin the World-Eater, a dragon who is prophesied to destroy the world. The videogame is set two hundred years after the events of Oblivion, and takes place in the fictional province of Skyrim. Over the course of the game, the player completes quests and develops the character by improving skills. The game continues the open world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the player to travel anywhere in the game world at any time, and to ignore or postpone the main storyline indefinitely.

    A cool theory is that the Dwemer had found a way to create portals into other dimensions and thus all mysteriously disappeared. This could be an explanation to how it is possible to summon dwarven spiders and spheres with the aetherium staff, as they do not have souls and so wouldn't be able to be summoned regularly. Maybe the staff creates a portal into these other dimensions to summon a spider or sphere.

    Hello from California.
    Also, the dwemer are still alive, just in another plane of existence. The proof: the Aetherial staff(pretty sure I butchered the spelling) summons dwemer machines. In order to summon something it must be on another plane of existence, which is why you can’t summon mundane items and people to you, as you are both already on Nirn. If the machines are in another plane, they had to be put there by someone or made there. From Morrowind, we know that dwemer who were in another plane were not effected by the events of The Battle of Red Mountain. If they were building or storing machines in another plane, the dwemer there would still be alive and well, though most likely barred from returning to Nirn due to what Kagrenac did with the heart of Lorkan.

    The Dwemer may have worshipped, or otherwise venerated, the Daedric Prince of Order, Jyggalag. I say this as he was so obscure among mortals as to be unknown, and above all other things, he stood for logic and reason, therefore an efficient, intelligent mind that strives toward perfection would not only feel compelled to do so, albeit in a more scholarly way than a religious one, but would also win at least a small (yet precise) measure of his favour (while he was himself, at least). As such, it might be he who gifted the Dwemer with their magical abilities, and perhaps some knowledge, too. This might explain their love for precision, their preference toward euclidean architecture, and devices that can order the minds of a populace, not to mention their ruthless efficiency.
    At the moment, this is just speculation on my part, but it might do to keep an eye out in future ES games (or perhaps have your grandkids do so) if Jyggalag makes a reappearance, just in case any evidence arises.

    • @Im-Not-a-Dog
      @Im-Not-a-Dog 5 лет назад +10

      Concentric Octagons maybe not worship, as they knew of daedric princes and didn’t worship them. I seem to remember a story about an old dwemer philosopher or some such that once tricked Azura just to prove that the daedra didn’t know everything. After something like that, the dwemer would never worship a daedra. But if he was still around when the dwemer were around I’m pretty sure they would have respected him. It’s not exactly clear when he got turned into Sheogorath, so I’m not sure if the two were existent at the same time. Wonder if the one disappearing has anything to do with the other disappearing???

    In my second playthrough of Skyrim I avoided EVERYTHING DWEMER. During my first playthrough I mistakenly took on Calcelmo's quest and, being the novice that I was, saved my game using one of the 'autosave' slots. Well for those of you who don't know, on XBOX 360 the game has 3 designated 'autosave' slots. If you save using any of these 3 slots, the game will still use these slots to autosave. Once I entered this Dwemer ruin, I saved my game using an 'autosave' slot, not realizing my mistake. Needless to say the game automatically saved over my save and I was trapped layers below in what seemed to go down FOREVER.
    I was at a low level when I started this quest and was forced to level up as I went along. Because of my error using the autosave slot, I was trapped in there untill it's very end. I kept trying to go back to a previous save but it was no use. I couldn't leave. I could only go forward. It was my first encounter with anything Dwemer and with the Falmer. Once it was over I was traumatized afterwards and steered clear of ANYTHING resembling a Dwemer ruin. To this day, I'm still just glad it's over...
    Correction. The quest I was referring to was the Fathoms quest, not Calcelmo's. Scarred.

      Had kagernac the time they would have made brasswalk proper,they would have made nirn 2.0 long before soth would have and they would have become incomprehencible with zero drawbacks just like how they could read and elderscroll without madness. Its likley to do this would take transmitting the heart and destroying the aspect of limitation,and by destroying limitation they would win anyways. But lorkahn doesn't want to survive simply to be this aspect of failure,but to give all the chance of success.

This is probably why the leading causes of death in world are Abortion, Suicide, Alcohol and illegal drug overdoses: Life forms have drifted too far away from their Reason for Being... thus they malfunction and self destruct. When things function correctly, their is a purpose and meaning to their actions. Things being machines, software, animals, people, orbits of planets, etc...

Then they ask if they may be able to run some genetic engineering bioprocessors and 3D print actual dragon bodies to transfer their consciousness into living brains ? Fallout 4's most interesting side quests: Curie the medical robot and 'her' request to become a Sim human. We can see her motivation as her quest to fulfill her reason for being. She is semi aware, not actually self aware, but Curie is designed to help life, but she's a robot. So she wants to become a person, or in this case, a Sim fabricated person, which is the closest she can get to transforming into a living being.

    If they had zero-summed the dwemer would have been gone in past present and future meaning they would have never existed in the first place thus all of their architecture machines and other leftovers would not be existant and noone would ever know they had existed because technically they did not in the first place due to zero summing

    Possibilities
    -Murdered by ancient evil discovered through their study of the eldritch and forbidden knowledge
    -Killed off by some bacteria they engineered that became too advanced
    -Killed each other in a war and destroyed living evidence of their existence
    -Incurred the wrath of a god
    -Openly challenged the Daedra/Aedra
    -Reached Aetherius through space travel
    -Reached Aetherius through magical inter dimensional shit
    -Ascended to god form
    -Created their own plane of existence and reside in it
    Or maybe the fact that they made automatons angered the gods because they were creating artificial life so perhaps these angered gods ironically trapped the souls of the dwemer in their own contraptions cursing them with eternal pointless life of caretaking and defending ruins lost to time where they can derive no pleasure, knowledgeable or meaning from their existence

    Thanks Drew! I always enjoy your many fascinating lore videos about all the various Mer of Tamriel. Especially the Bosmer, Dwemer and Dunmer as they each intrigue me in different ways. I find the Altmer to be nothing more than egotistical hypocrites as all Mer worship their ancestors yet the Altmer, the A.D. and Thalmor in particular, deny the Nords the same right to worship their ancestor, Tiber Septim aka Talos.
