Time for some ale
I wish I could have a horker as my follower.

I had to travel back in time to find this thread. I'm saddened immensely.
Seriously though, the world is named Nirn, right? It's not Earth. Why then does Jenassa refer to ancient ruins as being "..the very bones of the Earth?" Earth shouldn't even be a know term to anyone. Or am I wrong?
I agree with you, and so does my new legendary weapon, the hollowed "Wooden Warrior Whacker" wooden katana that fought to victory versus the Ebony Warrior.
I was actually going to say something similar. What if... The humans present on Nirn are descended from a group that left Earth during a colonization expansion? This took place so long ago that high technologies have long since been forgotten, and the middle-ages essentially occurred again on this new world. All of the Mer resulted from early genetic tampering from specific factions who were in favor of such alteration, either to be better adapted to space travel, or better adapted to a new world, but either way, the factions diverged. In time, the truth of origins became lost in myth, but not before the initial pioneers of the new world seeded Earth-native species into the environment, such as bears, wolves, etc. The Argonians and Kahjiit also descend from the humans of Earth, yet represented the far fringes of ideology in genetic manipulation. Speciation would've occurred within the first several generations. Eventually, the Dwemer would rediscover some of the old-Earth science, and through a revolutionary theory of quantum entanglement, would end up... somewhere else, nobody knows where. Or when.The name of the planet is Nirn, but, perhaps they are referring to the actual makeup of the planet and referring to it as "earth" as we do. Digging in the dirt = digging in the earth?
Just a thought. Weren't the original humans on Nirn from Earth? You know, maybe they came in a big ole shiny spaceship or something? (Designed by the Dwemer maybe?).
or it might just be gasMany thousands of years have passed since the initial colonization. What we've come to think of as magic, is actually a harnessing of ancient technology, long forgotten, but once commonplace. Even the long dead walk because of it. This nano-technology, which the current inhabitants of Nirn couldn't possible comprehend, permeates the genome of every humanoid form, and has been cleverly weaved into the myths and lore of the land.
And yet another adventuring career is ended before its time
I'm guessing beans. Explains why the Dwemer disappeared. Really bad perma-fart smellsHmm..
Yes, it's either nano-tech, or beans. Certainly one of the two.
This is what I get for thinking deeply. Perma-farts.I'm guessing beans. Explains why the Dwemer disappeared. Really bad perma-fart smellsHmm..

Better perma-farts than mud buttThis is what I get for thinking deeply. Perma-farts.I'm guessing beans. Explains why the Dwemer disappeared. Really bad perma-fart smellsHmm..

I believe the vary same phenomenon was responsible for the Permian mass-extinction.
