Skyrim: Is this an easter egg?

[RedEyesBlackGamer]

Maybe the mudcrab merchant's descendant knows where Creeper and Umbra are hiding.

As amusing as that may be, Umbra is LONG dead.

Umbra is simply the identity someone assumes when they possess the sword Umbra. Now if Clavicus Vile would stop being such a selfish **** and throw it at another Orc... >:O

Oh believe me, I'm well aware. But one of the Elder Scrolls novels tells that sometime between Oblivion and Skyrim, Umbra lost it's hunger and became a GIANT FLOATING CASTLE that almost destroyed Tamriel before it was killed for good.

The book was called The Infernal City. It's a good read if you already have intimate knowledge of Elder Scrolls lore.

At least that's how it was explained to me.

I've heard a bit about it... though I didn't realize the city was supposed to be Umbra of all things!

Weird shit!

That's why there ISN'T an Umbra in Skyrim. Umbra died FOR GOOD four decades after Oblivion.

Poor Umbra :<

Well, that still doesn't explain why they left Goldbrand's fate a mystery. DLC?

It's unconfirmed, but apparently Emperor Titus II wielded Goldbrand during the re-taking of the Imperial City, near the end of the Great War.

I think they mention it in one of the in-game books. Though, that was a bit ago and I am pretty sure he was a few emperors ago. So where did it go? :O

Actually, he is still the current emperor. The Great War was only 30 years ago.

Well then I stand corrected. However... Massive Skyrim Spoiler to Follow:

Spoiler

How come he didn't have it when I put a dagger in his chest?

I don't know. These artifacts tend to jump from owner to owner like herpes. After the war, maybe it found a new owner or Boethiah took it back.

I saw that too, and I thought of Iwo Jima

Also, wtf is wrong with your graphics, those northern lights look all blocky and ugly :O

I found an easter egg too. Maiq the Liar is still alive 200 years after the events in Oblivion.

OT: I don't know if it is or not. Maybe it's part of a mini quest?

It's not the same M'aiq, but his grandcub. The M'aiq in Oblivion was the same M'aiq that was in Morrowind though.

That would be because I resized the image, else it would be too big for the thread


I guess it isn't an easter egg... I met M'aiq, even tried killing him, but he seems to have the immunity to death as those damned kids.

Also am I the only who tried to kill the Jarl of Whiterun's son?
