Those are caves though. Not ruins :?

I'm not sure about the spelling, but it's my favourite, too.
Just say it with a Khajiit voice. Do it once. Ninendaaava.
Gives me chills.

Thanks Summer, for enforcing my rule (:

Oh, the one I wanted to add was Xedilian, just because Sheogorath says it so much in his wonderful fashion, I grew to love its pronunciation. :)

Oh please - Sheogorath's best quote is "CHEESE FOR EVERYONE!" :D

But I do agree. The way he says Xedilian is pretty funny, especially when you've finished the related quest.

Heyheyhey, I wasn't saying that's my favorite quote from him! My personal favorite is "Cat's out of the bag on that one, isn't it? Who puts cats in bags, anyway? Cats hate bags." LOL :lol:

True with Rockmilk, however, Underpall has a fort in it, so it's a cave and ruins at the same time.

Besides, I associate ruins with dungeons in general so I tend not to connect the differences.

Just to stay on topic; Sundercliff watch is a favorite as well, not that it has the razor, because it's huge. It has cave systems and ayleid ruins in one fort. Plenty of enemies to fight and good memories running from vampires.

I like the Ayleid ruin names. All of them.

Actually, all except Malada. Sounds like somewhere in Spain and not something from ES lore.

I like Veyond, but more for the outside view of it (and the inside is quite interesting, too) rather than the name of the place. I have screenshots of my character standing in front of Veyond in the rain. It's pretty neat-looking.

I saw that topic. I have a lot of screenshots of my character in various places on his Elder Stats profile, so I could post them for the guild to enjoy. :)
