    What if the Sload islands were swimming islands, held above by their levitation magic? Once the navy destroyed the coral tower and killed a lot of Sloads the magic weakened and the islands sank to the bottom of the sea.

      I believe that was a reference to Lovecraft. A nod and a wink from the game developers.
      However from a lore point of view, I'd love it if it was a Sloadic influence.

    I’d love for the sload to go up to the aldermi dominion and attack them from behind. Thalmor had a lot of their forces on the border, that leaves summerset a ripe target. Be hilarious if in ES 6 the elves beg to rejoin the empire and get help for the sload.

    and examine things with a closer lens. Making us see clearer what's in front of us.

    both Drew and Scott who seem the same at first due to their voices, but are very
    different in nature.

    I have dump theory. Sloads are elf, or high elf who made a deal with daedra to gain power but it cost them their a lot. They are corrupt but powerful. They can’t read but they can’t forget. They can’t walk but now they can teleport and fly with ease. Dumb Theory. I also think sea are pure elfs then second purist are high elf then goes down from that based on far they go from summer set, most unpure is sloads because they corrupt. Also psijic orders tower kinda looks sload like to me and maybe they built and that’s why they want it, they want to take it back. I think the order say they don’t know who built it but it’s definitely something of power. Maybe that why the Sload and sea elf want a summerset, all involved think that summerset is their true home. Just dumb Theory.

    • @Gobbygiblet
      @Gobbygiblet 6 месяцев назад

      A Elven origin for the Sload would be fascinating.
      I like the idea of them being fallen Altmer, but given the proximity to Yokuda, maybe they could be Sinistral Elves.
      They could have made a pact with Daedra or have been cursed during their epic war with the Yokudans. Their grotesque transformation saved their race, but at great cost.

    I'm really curious about the Skaal Village. And mostly, about their god. As i know, the existance of aedra and deadra, is undenible on Tamriel and Nirn. So, how can they believe a single god which is we never heard about? (correct me if I am wrong)
    What or who is their god?

    • @flamesofchaos13
      @flamesofchaos13 4 года назад +1

      Anu or Anuiel more than likely..."Anui-El, also known as Anuiel, Aniel, and Satak, and not to be confused with Auri-El, is a deity of the Aldmeri Pantheon that is the representation of everlasting ineffable light as well as the soul of all living things."
      Skaal believe in the All-Maker..."Only one god is present in Skaal religion, the All-Maker, who the Skaal consider the maker of all things. Upon death, the Skaal believe that the soul is returned to the All-Maker, and the All-Maker then sends it back to the world as a new creature. As such, the Skaal believe that death is not the end, but rather, the start of a new journey in life."
      Both speak of being connected to Souls and ALL Living Things. More than likely they're one in the same being. Also it was Anui-El who helped CREATE the Aedra and Daedra...He/It would most certainly be the more powerful/worthy deity to worship. There's even an argument that the Aedra and Daedra aren't True Gods just powerful beings...You can't make that argument for Anuiel the Soul of the Being/Essence that created Reality/Existence.
      So if I'm right in what I'm saying...They're literally worshiping the True God that Created the Bounds of their Reality(Space), Their Souls, Their Deaths and Reincarnations, Time and Everything. So why would they seek to worship Lesser Versions of It or Deities that didn't do any of those things?
      Also their Faith is apparently the Old Nordic and Atmoran Faith. Meaning it's just as old if not older than the Aldmer Faith lending credence to a possible connection.

      @@hallacson8535 The All-Maker is only worshipped by the Skaal in modern times but it was the Original Faith of the Atmorans and Nords. But like I said I believe it's Anu or Anuiel so that would mean he/it is also worshipped by the Altmer and technically the Last Snow Elf if I'm right.
      No they're never seen we're not talking about a physical being here...They're Existence itself Reality/Space and Soul. It's a metaphysical being that is connected to all life and death...So yeah you can speak to it but it won't speak back nor will you be talking to any construct.
