Or at least another dragon. I'm still on the fence about P. He waited thousands of years and did nothing. And there WERE other dragons in that time. But that's not to say he still won't slip. The dragonborns have the same urge, if tiber septim was any example then we know this is the case. Their souls drive them forward to conquer and reign. Probably from being part god. Since other dragons have not come to the same conclusion Paarthurnaax and there is no shortage of ancient dragons it would be safe to assume one would rise again.

Paarthurnax might remember the Blades, and wreak havoc on them.

Who says he won't meditate, anyway?

I won't complain. I hope Paarthurnaax has no trouble. And takes his food well-done

I think the most likely will be something we don't know we don't know.

I think dragons are gonna take a side step for now, I mean it was different with Oblivion since we techinically did change enemies and plot, just to a different daerda though. Dragons are too similar to be different in other ways so we'll probably have some new enemies who are equal in terms of combat to dragons, or just a different breed and type of dragon and respective new bosses.

Honestly I believe Bethesda may have slightly painted themselves in a corner here, They made a fantastic enemy that is well planned, good lore behind them, a lot of fun and challenging to face in terms of combat.

I'd be impressed to see what they come up with next if it truly out does the dragons.

You are not lying, though depending on where we go it could open some good options. I'm hoping for the Summerset Isles(after the dominion is crushed) or Valenwood. But Elsweyr is good and Black Marsh and everything in it scares me. The FLIES are deadly, FLIES!

In-game maybe, but there are alot of people scared and some even wanted to leave Skyrim because of them.

Moth? Seriously. We brew moth's wings for an Invisibility potion.
Baurus: Our job is to get the Emperor out of situations like this. Though I'll admit, things aren't going exactly to plan.

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.

I did say giant, so the wings would be too large to brew into anything, no bowls big enough in Skyrim. People are suggesting fire breathing bunnies, so why not MothGaGa?

Because bunnies are more plausible.
That would require some endorsement and permission issues, I think.
