Night Mother's Truth?

Post by OneFacesManyMasks »

Something I have been curious about since I first read it in Skyrim, The book 'The Nights Mother's Truth' portrays the Night Mother of the Dark Brotherhood as once being a Night Mother of the Morag Tong who was 'romanced' by Sithis and became the figure we all know and love. Now since Skyrim released in 2011 I have been unable to find this information added to any Night Mother page I have ever read, I've seen the book linked to pages as sources but none of it's information is added at all.

Which brings me to the question is there something I'm missing? Is there a reason it's not on main articles or do most people hold it as just another work of an unreliable narrator? Your thoughts?

I'm going to assume it's simply because no editor has bothered to add the information to any articles yet. Maybe I'll hop on that sometime soon, myself, if I remember. I can't imagine any editor considers it not worth mentioning, as information from multiple sources are used in all Lore articles. Lore isn't really about reliability or likelihood of truth, afterall.
Monsters are bred in labyrinths, labyrinths are bred from walls. There is a reason the Giants choose to remain nomadic rather than follow their shield kin the Nords in building permanent settlements. The Tower is the beginning of all walls.
