Using scandinavian pronunciation works, I think. Teerdas and toordas, as the names of the days are definitely inspired by the scandinavian day names, at least, that is how it seems to my feeble danish brain

Is it because being a vampire or a werewolf is a bit of a mix between a curse/blessing and an infectious disease? the disease part making it possible for the dragonborn to be infected/blessed/cursed.

how can the Thalmor threaten Talos.
They're just force nords not to worship him, they're not threatening him in any real way, that's like thinking shaking your fist at the sky is like punching god in the tummy and making him cry, it makes no difference.

You could argue that a god ceases to have ...

I doubt there are that many dragons left, though the imaginary imagery is making me drool

I'd say: they don't need or want anyones pity, like a lot of people in here have said, the dunmer pick them selves up and move on, pity didn't help them come to terms with their sudden colour-change, neither did it help them survive on Solsteim, their lives are as hard as anyone else's, they know ...

That kind of DLC would only be made if Paarthurnax's survival was insured. Unless Odahviing took his place as leader of the dragons, as he can't be killed that might be a possibility, though I have no idea what you'd be doing with an army of dragons. You couldn't invade anywhere, too much landmass ...

The sightless pit, just beautiful.
Blackreach of course, was really quite spectacular.
Speaking with Paarthurnax, not that he had all that much to say, but just the feeling that this creature was truly ancient and knowledgable always gets me, which is why I adored the chance you got to speak to ...

This has gotten kinda of topic it seems...

The Northern Maiden isn't being controlled, otherwise they wouldn't take you to him.
You forget everything you do while under his control. Do you not remember the captain saying that he didn't know how he ended up in Windhelm? Maybe it was just an inconvenient case of amnesia that hit the whole ...

He wouldn't simply take you under his wing because he valued your skills but rather to improve his own skills.
I was just contemplating the ins and outs of an unlikely theory. I'm quite certain Miraak was just as bad as any other villain. It would have been cool though, if he was like some sort of ...

The sender tells them, I would. Your way is kind of complicated for a courier. :P
Though not unlikely, otherwise a lot of the senders are watching me while I sleep.

Anyway, my point about how the Cultists find you still stands, they would not have been the first agents of someone, who were sent ...

I imagine he wasn't at his maximum power level(might have been at 8000 or something) when you reached him, the construction work around Solsteim was disrupted, thereby preventing him from reaching his full potential, which is why you had to go to apocrypha to face him, and not the other way around ...

The Cultest knew, but he didn't. Weird.
How about this: Miraak tells his followers to go to Skyrim and kill the Dragonborn. They go to Skyrim, finds out he's a Breton (in my case) they go to some place he may visit at some point, and bobs your uncle.

How do the couriers know what you look like ...

Also Miraak has the power of bending wills, and the wills of the crew manning the Northern Maiden were definitely bent. Did his followers bend their wills? They'd have to be dragonborn themselves or have made some sort of crazy deal with Old Herma Mora. I'm quite sure none of those two options make ...

And since he knows so much about you, and your exploits in Skyrim aren't exactly a secret, I'd imagine some news might have traveled from Skyrim to Solsteim, and in turn, to Miraak. Why wouldn't he know of you?
That was not my point. My point is he knows there is a Dragonborn, not what he looks ...

By Azura! I second that

It's also important to state Mirrak could tell we defeated Alduin, and only us. The Last Dragonborn is special, even amoung his own kind. Mirrak knew we where the last. And don't say Mora told him, otherwise he wouldn't be surprised when we arrived.
But didn't he also send assassins to kill us ...

He can't simply return - he has no form now, until the final ending of the world.
Do you know this?
What happened in Skyrim was supposed to be the end of the world, not the enslavement of all mortals. At least that's the idea I got from what happened and what I was told during the main quest ...

I guess I wouldn't. The mechanics of the dragonblood were vague... Odd in TE VI

Then what's to stop him from doing so again, whenever he has to reappear?

And all his step siblings it would seem... Well that's just confusing

That's what I thought, then what was the point of defeating him? If fulfilling the prophecy was only a means of delaying the exact same end seems rather pointless to me, why even bestow the dragonblood for the last time upon the hero, if it doesn't matter?

It seems a bit stupid being the Last ...

Hmm... Though I doubt Bethesda intends it to be so, isn't it entirely possible that everyone was wrong, and you are not the last? If Alduin is not gone forever, which he seems not to be, you couldn't be the last one... Otherwise he'll just return when you're dead.

Oh well, with every new game a ...
