    Skyrim is a place that hasn't been visited very often since 2011, however The Elder Scrolls Online has just began to receive a major new expansion finally sending us back to this iconic part of Tamriel and in doing so, bringing to life an entire new Skyrim-based storyline and introducing an unfathomable amount of new lore. So today we'll be exploring this new setting and explaining Skyrim's strange new story!

    Note Time -
    -So, some major simplifications had to suffice in order for everything to make sense, and I ended up cutting out a huge portion of discussion on the Reach. Currently Markarth is ruled by a mysterious Reachman called "The Despot of Markarth" and we're likely to see more from him soon.
    -The Red Storms are actually something called "Harrowstorms" and they're summoning entities from the original Grey Host back to Nirn from Coldharbour.
    -Svagrim and Jorunn really don't like each other, but despite rival claims they are NOT at war as Ulfric was with the Empire, they just don't talk much.
    Muchos gracias to Stadia for sponsoring, they literally allowed me to talk about whatever, which was great. Monetization is also disabled on this video, so no pre-rolls, mid-rolls or post rolls!

    On the status of the Holds: The developers themselves actually clarified that Falkreath left Svargrim's 'West Skyrim' after the King failed to protect them from the Reachmen ( referencing the events of 'Horns of the Reach'), and Whiterun has opted for a neutral stance given their position of trade. So what you play in Greymoor is the last vestiges of The West's territory.

      Unfortunately, ESO breaks lore left right and center (crates, dlcs, nps, maps) But they are finally getting a writer back for the next DLC (Not for Blackwood, the next one) Hopefully positive lore videos would be easier to make rather then sharing lore breaking. This is a fine video cause he doesnt point out the obvious but tries to shine a positive light to it. Though that is extremely hard to do for eso dlcs, not including Wrothgar.

If ESO has information in it, then I think a number of us would enjoy your content, and comments about it. You reference ESO and past ES titles in your Skyrim vids already, and for me it's great because I only play Skyrim. I'm interested in all of Tamreil, Nirn, and the outer plains, and I'd really love all the information you can offer us on anything Elder Scrolls, no matter what the source is. Even the fan fiction you may reference I think is exciting.

      The 3rd Era began and ended with the Septim Dynasty. Arena-Oblivion were 3rd Era, Skyrim is 4th, ESO is set in the 2nd, as one of the brief intermediate Cyrodiilic Empires is collapsing. This is a few hundred years before Talos leads his armies from Skyrim to conquer Cyrodiil and begin the Septim Empire, declaring a new Era (the 3rd) when he conquers the continent.
      He has the year number right I think, just not the Era.
