——4E, Year 175, Moon of the Rainhand, 12th, 16:42——
After nearly five years of war, the Septim Empire and Thalmor finally made peace with each other and signed an armistice agreement called the "Platinum Agreement". One of the clauses required the Empire not to continue to control "Talos", and
It was Tiber Septim, the first emperor of the empire, who was worshiped as the "Ninth Holy Spirit".
Although the reason for this clause is that Thalmor wanted to deny the existence of the act of "ascension from man to god", it is completely untenable if you think about it carefully. Another Holy Spirit "Arkay" was also created by a human.
He was promoted to a god, why didn't he also resist it? According to my previous experience in Summerset Island, Zelapesh's vest, the real thoughts of the elves are actually "The guy who drove them away from the center of the continent can actually
Not satisfied with the fact that he became the Holy Spirit.
The reason why the empire agreed so readily was because they themselves had blown the story of Tiber Septim's ascension to the gods. I'm afraid the people who said so didn't believe it themselves. Unlike other holy spirits, Tiber Septim
After being worshiped as the "Ninth Holy Spirit", there are no miracles or oracles at all. As for the Nords feeling stronger after shouting "For Talos" in battle, it is just an illusion.
In this regard, as Akatosh, I have a strong say. The Wheel of the World is still composed of eight Holy Spirits and sixteen Demon Gods interlocking and restraining each other. There is no position for Talos at all - even Akai, who was also promoted from a human, his original
The location is also occupied by "concepts" such as the cycle of life and death, funerals, and cemeteries.
Those who worship Talos only hope that he can become the Holy Spirit with his own merits, and have not considered what priesthood he should bear. Currently, he can only occupy the secondary priesthoods such as "Battle" and "Victory" which are a little embarrassing.
The jurisdiction of the god Stendarr, but the two of them had a good personal relationship, so they gave up part of it.
The imperial agreement was signed happily, but the Nords in Skyrim Province could not accept it, because Tiber Septim originally came from Skyrim, and he also had the title of "Dragon of the North". In Skyrim Province, "
"Talos" has even more admirers than all other Holy Spirits combined. It can be said that it was the signing of the "Platinum Agreement" that gave Ulfric Stormcloak the opportunity to organize his rebel army. However, currently "
The Stormcloaks are just ordinary weapons used to maintain law and order in Skyrim Province.
'I have to say, Lao Wu was quite handsome when he was young.' I mingled with the Snowhoof family and looked at Ulfric Stormcloak from a distance, who was pointing out a battle plan against Markarth.
.
Although his hair is gray, his eyes are as blue as the sea, and his face has sharp edges. Coupled with the dark blue light armor with a cape, he looks heroic. The big man next to him is the trusted deputy Galmar Stone.
Fist, discussing tactics together with the general manager of Windhelm City, the thin Qiao Leifu, and the guard captain Rui Ji who was ordered to come from Dugu City to help.
[What are you doing here? Are you going to stop him from massacring the Forsworn? 】
'There is no need to stop them, just let them go secretly. After all, they fought to the end because Markas City is easy to defend and difficult to attack and there is no secret way to escape.'
The Forsworn are a strange race. They are related by blood to elves, humans, and orcs. When the empire dispatched Nord warriors to fight the elves, they took the opportunity to occupy Markarth City. At this time, with the signing of the Platinum Agreement,
With the return of Nord troops, all parties were preparing to regain the city as political capital, but due to mutual interference, the Stormcloaks took the lead.
【Whitewash Stormcloak?】
'Well, that's what I mean, but the conflict between the Empire and the Stormcloaks goes beyond this. Even if the matter is cleared, they will still have to fight.'
Two of the things that Ulfric Stormcloak was criticized for happened at this time. One was that the Forsworn in Markarth City refused to surrender. After Ulfric occupied Markarth City, he almost killed them.
The light eventually caused the Forsworn to attack the Nords like bandits and take revenge everywhere outside Markarth. The second was the follow-up to this incident. As the matter got serious, Thalmor learned that there was a Stormcloak force that was still alive.
Believing in the existence of Talos's power, he forced the Empire to arrest Ulfric. During his imprisonment, he missed the last time he saw his father, the former Lord of Windhelm, who died of illness. This caused him to develop a deep hatred for the Empire, and finally
Accepted Thalmor ambassador Alanwen's suggestion to become a spy against the Empire and operated in this capacity for several years.
Although there is still no conclusion on whether he was a real Thalmor spy or just taking advantage of the opportunity to escape, this dark history still caused many dragonborn to join the Imperial camp without hesitation.
"The Forsworn have escaped!" "They're afraid of us!" "Oh!"
Before the commanders made specific battle arrangements, some sharp-eyed people in the coalition forces preparing to attack Markarth City had already seen a large number of Forsworn people wearing strange clothes and antlers escaping from the side entrance in large numbers. Although Nord
People love fighting, but being able to win without fighting and without bloodshed is worth celebrating.
"Strange, does Markarth City have a side entrance?" Ulfric gave up formulating a battle plan, put his hand on the map, and looked at the backs of those who escaped with some confusion.
"Ha! Those barbarians finally learned to be afraid." Galmar Stonefist laughed.
"Then we will enter the city immediately and capture it. Although capturing the city without a battle is not enough, there is no damage to the city to add some leverage." Joe Refu said.
"Then, keep searching and enter Markarth City." Ulfric pointed.
"Wait a minute," Riki, who was wearing imperial armor and looked very Nord-like, grabbed him and said, "They can go, but you must leave immediately."
"Thalmor?" Ulfric frowned and looked at Rikki, then asked.
"Yes, they have discovered that you Stormcloaks still believe in Talos. Although they are helpless towards your father, they are ready to take the opportunity to arrest you and blackmail him." Reggie whispered, although she was cheered by the army that was entering the city.
There is no need: "Don't worry about me, it's not difficult to pretend not to believe."
"Thank you." Ulfric stopped entering the city and turned around in the opposite direction.
'That's almost it.' I took back the Annihilation Gate that let the Forsworn people go. 'They must not have thought that when they passed through what looked like a big hole in the wall, they had already visited Sognard.'
[There is no point in rescuing these Forsworn. From their point of view, they are being driven out of their homeland. There will not be many fewer Forsworn bandits led by Reach in the future.】
'Yes, yes, it makes sense to deal with the demons, but after the first few, the rest are all hidden. What can I do, I can only wait until the plot officially begins and they have to show up, and then try to take a trick.
'I avoided the large troops swarming into the city, found a hiding place, opened a new door of annihilation, and headed to the location of another incident.
——17:22——
My destination is the Snowmantle Secret Chamber, not Snowrun City. It is an ancient Nord tomb. It has various mechanisms and riddle doors similar to other Nord tombs, but it is different from other ancient Nord tombs where the key to the mechanism can still be found.
The key to this ancient tomb has completely disappeared from the world, and the locks of its secret doors cannot be opened at all. Although this strange thing has puzzled the tomb robbers who returned home, but for the
For me, I was just distracted to investigate.
Unlike other corpses that have become ghosts due to the age of time, the corpses in the tomb have gathered scattered souls and turned into ghosts. The owner of this tomb had made up his mind to be resurrected during his lifetime, and made many arrangements in the tomb for this purpose, and successfully succeeded in dying.
In the third year after his death, he transformed into a powerful ghoul that retained the memories of his life.
If he followed his plan, there should be no problem in excavating other tombs along the way to recruit zombies into an army, and eventually dominate the sky. Ordinary human armies would be helpless against him. Even if the Holy Spirit wanted to stop him, there would be demon gods who were afraid of the world being in chaos to help.
But the problem is that this guy's level was too low when he was alive, and he didn't know what kinds of demons there were. His behavior completely angered Meridia, so when he just opened the door of the tomb and saw the light of day, he was burned
The brilliance evaporated directly, along with the locks and keys of all the doors. From now on, no one can enter this tomb - until now.
If you want to break the restriction set by one demon god, only another demon god can do it. At this time, I was walking invisibly behind three Nocturnal believers. Their leader was holding a
With the huge key inlaid with a skull, whenever you encounter a door that cannot be opened, just raise your hand and it will open.
"Are you sure you have received the Oracle of the Lady of the Night?" Dark Elf Kalia asked with a frown.
"Don't worry, if I take out the skull key without authorization, Ms. Ye will definitely give you an oracle to arrest me." Mercer Frey continued to clear the way without looking back.
"But Ms. Ye doesn't answer any of our prayers now." Gallus also hesitated.
Well, being a god has this advantage. I can know everyone's name at a glance, although even without this talent, I know exactly who they are - the "Nightingale" who secretly leads the Thieves Guild.
Mercer Frey learned the rumors about this tomb from some ancient books. Since the unlucky owner of the tomb is going to be resurrected, naturally there will be no cheap burial objects. All the things placed deep in the tomb are real treasures.
After punishing him, Meridia no longer pays attention to this place, so as long as she can open the door, she can have all the wealth.
Nocturnal has a "skull key" that can open any door lock. When Mercer tried to borrow it, he said, "If you want to use it, I will withdraw all protection from you."
To put it simply, these three people and even their subordinate Thieves Guild members will all become "Lucky E". However, Mercer, who is not aware of this, still decides to take this unknown risk.
I originally stared at these believers of Nocturnal, preparing to ambush him when he interfered, but in the end, he completely returned to the realm of annihilation and ignored these nightingales-could he have discovered that I was staring at them?
【So, are you going to save Gallus or Mercer? 】
"Pfft!" Mercer just lost his mind and suddenly got angry when he arrived outside the treasure room. He turned around and shot an arrow at Gallus who was caught off guard.
"First of all, Gallus needs to be saved." I pulled out the poison arrow stuck in my chest and gave Gallus, who was completely uninjured, a hold-down spell to make him look like he had been poisoned and died.
'Then Mercer also has to find a way.' I watched Mercer try to chase down Kallia, but the dark elf escaped quickly. 'When playing the game, I deliberately didn't do the tasks here. You can take Mercer to fight all over the world.
Skyrim.'
【Do you think this is poaching the devil? 】
‘Hey, we’re going to dig a lot in the future, let’s see if they dare to come out and confront them.’ Opening the Gate of Annihilation, I casually threw Gallus into Sungard.
