5 Elder Scrolls COSMOLOGY Facts You Didn't Know
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
The universe of the Elder Scrolls is a vast and incomprehensible place. The provinces of Morrowind, Cyrodiil, Skyrim, etc. are contained within Tamriel. Far away from Tamriel lies Akavir, Atmora, Yokuda, Pyandonea, Lyg, and Aldmeris, all of which are contained in the planet Nirn. Beyond Nirn are the moons Masser and Secunda - the corpse of Lorkhan, as well as the planets of the 8 divines - Akatosh, Arkay, Dibella, Julianos, Kynareth, Mara, Stendarr, and Zenithar. Surrounding Mundus, the mortal realm, is Oblivion. Here lie the vast realms of the Daedric Princes - Sheogorath his Shivering Isles, Hermaeus Mora and Apocrypha, Molag Bal and Coldharbour, Mehrunes Dagon and the Deadlands, and more. Finally, surrounding all else is Aetherius - the plane of magic - wherein lies Sovngarde and other such places. All of this makes up the Elder Scrolls universe - otherwise known as Aurbis. In this video, I discuss 5 facts about the universe of the Elder Scrolls that will hopefully help you to understand it better.

when i loked into skyrim sky i wondered if earth was in some of the stars far away, but i guess this explanation destroys the idea mostly (but maybe...).
tbh is legit explanation, cuz, duh, magic n dragons -
So can people on nirn explore space or?
-
I know a lot about cosmetology so try me bitch!
-
So in this universe, would someone like Vivec who has achieved chim, would they be able to do things like destroy the moons of other divines, or even break the barrier surrounding nirn, or is he just a small man with some power in the universe of the elder scrolls?
-
Ok, just came from the Last Dragonborn/Shor theory, to this... I subbed so hard I think I broke my index finger xD
-
also I still don't understand the the constellations. are they actual beings?
-
one; I loooooooooove elder scrolls lore and especially the cosmetology part of it.
two; if everything has an infinite mass, then can't that mean that avrbis is either one big black hole, INSIDE one big black hole ( or they are different areas inside one big black hole, or they are in-between the space time continuum. -
Elder Scrolls is a game from a time when writing was needed to make a great game.
-
His voice makes me want to kill myself.
-
what about anu and padomay? Aren't they outside of the Aurbis?
-
What is the name of the track right at the very end of the video?
-
I thought trinimac killed lorkhan not Auriel?
-
Bethesda probably just got high and said some random shit.
-
The 1st fact made sense about Hermaeus Mora's form.
-
Astromomer: I could caculate the red shift index and clearly....
Elder Scrolls: Everything revolves around nirn.
Astromomer: But clearly the universe...
Elder Scrolls: Science has no place here.
Astronomer Triggered -
I'm not highly fluent in Elder Scrolls Lore so please forgive me if my questions sound stupid...I was just wondering:
Question 1: What is outside Aetherius? Is there another plane of existence of some kind, or is there nothing at all beyond Aetherius?
Question 2: Has any mortals actually set foot on Nirn's moons or the varies planets? By the use of very powerful magic E.G portals or the Thumm.....or possibly spaceships created by the Draves?
Question 3: How big is Nirn? In the video it was stated that the other planets were infinitely massive. I was just wondering that since Nirn is the mortal plane, is it somethin of exception? I.E not infinity? Or is Nirn also Infinity in size?
I know those questions may seem very stupid, but I was genuinely curious. I'In sorry if I misspelled anything, I apologise.
But regardless of my questions, can I just say that the Elder Scrolls's Lore is EPIC! It is fascinating and isn't like any other franchise I've come across. It's amazing! :) -
so there is no "planet" for Talos since he is a newly made god, but what if Nirn has become or will become at some point Talos.
-
The elder scrolls universe is a plot device... the reason it exists is to expand the games from where they are now to "infinite" possibilities. Im not saying it is bad i definitely love that the elder scrolls have many options to go from here but the idea that it is simply "infinite" makes me cringe a bit. I have my own beliefs on a few infinite things of which i wont state because its simply not worth it but the idea that even above 10 things are infinite is impossible, technically with what i believe in there is only 1 infinite thing which includes all things so the idea of multiple infinite properties is impossible.
-
So, the entire ES universe is created as a dream of a great being. The planets are very reminiscent of electrons orbiting a nucleus. Add to that, the odd behavior of the different continents surrounding Tamriel (quantum mechanics, anyone?).
The entire universe sounds like it's a pocket dimension located in an atom. -
Man....this shit is the very definition of mindblow
