Maybe its because they realized that their order was going to be destroyed, the Empire would be shattered and in that process, the wall would be destroyed by the Empire's enemies. So they elected to preserve it in the hope that some of their order would survive and that the Last Dragonborn would realize his or her destiny to defeat Alduin.

There is so much knowledge of the inner workings of the TES lore. Did they have elder scrolls? Were they able to read them and understand them? My head cannon: The blades are remnants of the old akaviri, but i think that the moth priests also have some of the akaviri heritage. Think about it. They spend their entire lives divining out of them. They have intimate knowledge of the workings of the universe. And the first moth priest that comes to my mind is Dexion Evicus from the dawnguard quest line. Guess what is his weapon of choice? A blades Katana...

Another cool thing I just noticed: there seem to be three Blades holding their swords up in support of the Dragonborn on the wall. I believe there are only three blades in the game, correct? Delphine, the other guy, and Fultheim at the inn? If so maybe the wall also shows an abridged version of the fall of the Blades, literally showing their number by the time Alduin returns.

[@tarvoc746]

23:27 - "...a great hero, holding back the ferocity of Alduin, with the Blades kneeling in praise." This makes me think that you can only fully fulfill the wall's prophecy by using the Paarthurnax Dilemma mod. In vanilla Skyrim, the Blades don't end up kneeling before the Dragonborn in praise: You either kill Paarthurnax and thus effectively become Delphine's good little lapdog instead of an actual leader for the Blades, or you don't kill Paarthurnax, which results in the Blades ultimately shunning you. Only by Shouting some sense into Delphine, you fulfill even this last part of the prophecy.

[@THEJOKER-ii8wo]

Prophecy is kind of a hard thing to grasp in the elder scrolls universe

[@kshitijbenedict8431]

@@THEJOKER-ii8wo especially since there's canon mechanisms that totally make any choice you have actually happen, no matter if you do choose to do it or not

[@tarvoc746]

Sorry, seems like my actual point flew over everyone's head. This was meant as a criticism of Bethesda's writing for the Paarthurnax quest specifically. Something like the option added by Paarthurnax Dilemma should have been available in this quest from the very beginning. I think there are other good arguments for that point, I only used the wall's symbolism to illustrate it here.

[@left-2-write28]

@@tarvoc746 I feel ya. I always felt annoyed that the blades were given new purpose by the Dragonborn. One of them was working at a backwater inn with a troublesome husband and the other was hiding in a glorified sewer drain. Yet the Dragonborn took them and gave them a noble purpose to fight Alduin. Not to mention that they had never been sworn to hunt down and kill dragons. They had assassins or scholars in a time without any dragons. Why in Oblivion are they so emotionally invested in killing a cool dragon buddy? And at the cost of telling their new boss and charge to fuck off???

[@tarvoc746]

@@left-2-write28 I don't think Delphine is invested in killing Paarthurnax. Not overly at least, not more than for any other dragon. She's invested in making _the Dragonborn specifically_ kill him. Delphine has been manipulative and controlling since the very first time you meet her, and she even outright lies to you straight to the face long before you even get to the Paarthurnax quest. I think it's pretty obvious that she wants to turn the Blades into her own personal army, and the Dragonborn into her loyal puppet. Paarthurnax is in the way because as a mentor character he has a very different, more subtle, but arguably stronger influence on the Dragonborn. For Delphine, killing him serves two connected purposes: First, it gets him out of the way. And second, letting you do it serves as a test of loyalty, to see if you're dedicated enough to her so she can mold you into her tool. If you don't let her control you that way, she knows that you're a threat to her authority over the Blades, and thus she'll kick you out as a risk to her plans. And if you do let her control you that way, she knows that she can goad you into committing outright immoral acts, and thus it's the first step to forming you to her will. It's similar to a mob boss telling a new recruit to perform a kill to prove his loyalty. Wanting the target dead is usually a very secondary concern for the mob boss. The real purpose is to turn the new recruit into a loyal killer.

It's not like they rewrote Vault Tec to be an alien civilization on another planet.

[@left-2-write28]

@@MrOfTheSea I agree. Fallout 3 was a new different take on the Fallout Gameplay style, with a whole different cast of writers and creator as I seem to recall that the previous owners of the franchise went bankrupt.

I always wondered what the intended use of the eye of magnus was and if it was actually created/part of magnus it's self

[@ink4852]

Here's the gist of it, at least the way I understand it through my own delves into the lore. Magnus is the God of Magick. He was the first of the Aedra/Magma Ge to abandon Lorkhan's Mundus creation project after they realized that they would lose most of their divinity during the process. The Eye of Magnus was said to be used in the creation of Mundus/Nirn. The way I understand it, it's essentially a magical toolkit of such. The Thalmor's ultimate goal is to unmake the world (not destroy the world, but rather unmake the world by reversing the process that used to create it). They believe that by unmaking the world that they can "return" to being Aedra/Gods themselves, as the Altmer claim to be direct descendants of the Aedra. Ancano found a shortcut through the Eye of Magnus.

That leaders will come and go as time passes. That only the event of the dragons' return is something which definitely will be remembered. I believe the developers, by that, made sure that the next game doesn't have to provide us with any accurate detail or references to Skyrim and the civil war, just general points of it. The next chapter will likely revovle around a greater theme - the men versus mer conflict. The whole of the fith chapter in the Elderscrolls is practically leading up to it.

Alduin's wall was a cool way to tell of a new prophecy using events from previous Elder Scrolls titles. I found that rather interesting were the world is going to actual Oblivion your character (Depending on the game) is the only force that keeps that darkness at bay acting as the world's final ray of light.. Pretty poetic.

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

And all the events depicted can be traced back to Uriel Septim VII

[@venabre]

Interesting how they depict the broken staff accurately yet chose to show the throat of the world split in half

[@mrnickless]

Metaphorically split in half. Stormcloaks and Imperials

[@frankpepin4109]

After binge watching your videos, having a new one is quite a treat. I enjoy your content, sir. Keep it coming!

[@whenthemusicsover6028]

Slight correction regarding the death of High King Torygg: True, Ulfric Stormcloak's Thu'um knocked him on ass, but it was his sword stabbing him through the heart that actually killed him.

I love your detective and the lore series so much they're my most favorite of all things to watch on youtube.

You might want to edit your edit.

Thank you for all of the time and effort you put into your videos.

I think Miaq will become Emperor and rule with a furry hand 😁

maiq would make a good fur lining for my robes.

I always knew that Alduin's wall mention events from the previous Elder scroll games but this video goes fully in-depth analysis I manage to relearn and fill in gaps I forgot or didn't know

[@wkimray01]

What about Sunderstone Keep and Mehrunes' Razor in TES IV: Oblivion?

[@ExireHG]

Brilliant vid Camel! I always felt Alduin's Wall had hints into future titles but assumed I was just too stupid to figure it out =p

[@Singeferno]

oh yes, the Brass Tower...the Brotherhood of Steel ending

Hah. Nice.

For a suggestion perhaps a video on what happens to daedric followers as in what happens within their realms

[@oyster2746]

so i would like an episode on the anuad and the other various creation myths, or dragon breaks and the flow of time through the dawn and myrithic era i got tagged as my ESO guilds lore master and i don't know enough, this topic in particular eludes me and i have spent about a month going insane, please help!

[@Sera-F1nn]

Dragon Breaks are a mess. They really went all in with the "unfathomable for most mortals" aspect of the Dragon Breaks.

[@oyster2746]

@@Sera-F1nn true, but when you kind of NEED to understand the creation myth that's not super useful

[@TheLestat2008]

From all your detective videos i think this one is the best, great job👌

[@AlternateInfinite]

"This is a story all about how..."

[@CrimsonGoat]

Perhaps the sundering of the snow tower may refer also to the time rift created during the fight with alduin?

[@TheMrDeadbeat]

The true meaning of Alduin's wall? It keeps the Redguards out.

[@sirtrustdw]

This video was a crash course in Elder Scrolls lore. Thanks man!

Really good vid. Loves all the work you put into it. Lots of lore and never once boring or stale. Keep it up and thank you

This makes me want to play again... have a family now so will be hard to play much but damn do I miss it. Truly a masterpiece. Thank you for video.
