Yes.

Noneofyour Business an aspect of him, not himself. Ebonarm comes in the flesh basically. So he probably took a from where his sword isn’t fused to his hand, and a few other little changes.

[@InternetSupervillain]

Great energy man. Keep up the good work!

[@BazookaTooth707]

Zaric, your videos are topnotch. You not only present information like a professional, but your knowledge of any said topic is astounding. You're deserving of copious amounts of recognition. You have support from all sides of the globe, and rightfully so. Hope all is well.

[@marcelinoperez8613]

I need to look further into what happened that day to the blades because to me it sounds like they got there ass kicked and with the few that remained they created a lie to stay alive. I just imagine them as they were being killed. Blades Leader:WAIT ! your the one who we were looking for all along. blade grunt: what the fuck are you talki- Blade Leader: ( turns around ) shut the fuck up and just go with it.

[@brigge7830]

Interesting to see how real life mirrors the history of Tamriel, The Empire being taken from the Roman Republic/Empire, Reman Cyrodill storie's being similar to that of Romulus and Remus,plus Romulu's/Reman deification, The Praetorian Guard being identical to the Blades, Tiber Septim Ascension to Godhood and taking the place of the previous main god just like Jesus Christ,and etc.

[@eru.maewos7673]

It's more like The Alessian Empire (Roman Empire), Then came the worship of Alessia (Christianity), then the Dragon Break (Tamriel version of the Dark Ages, Europe being taken by Christianity is the Theocracy of the Alessian Order), they even had the Thrassian Plague (Black Plague).

[@eru.maewos7673]

Not to mention that they even had the East-West Schism (Catholic Christianity with Orthodox Christianity)

[@CantusTropus]

​@eru.maewos7673 If that's true then it's full fedora tipper silliness. Christianity did not cause the Dark Ages.

[@Kai.CRoleplaying]

The level of passion in Zaric's voice in this one is really evident, thanks for the awesome series

[@greyborn2213]

"AND KING HROL DID MAKE LOVE UNTO A HILLOCK" The book of Reman, seriously.

[@serathaevistille995]

This episode honestly just made me want to play a Redguard, and I've never felt that desire before. Weird.

[@roderik4]

I don't think the Remanada says he was wearing the Amulet. It says it was in his forehead. I like to think it was embeded in his skull and, when he died, someone had to go through the awkuard task of removing it so that Reman's son could wear it in a more 'traditional' way

[@andrewvanhorne4359]

Came here mostly to see if you'd mention the "Shonni-Etta" at all. I'll point out that "Remanada" states he was born with the Amulet in his forehead ("And in the child's forehead was the Chim-el Adabal, alive with the dragon-fires of yore and divine promise") not around his neck, and that as he was placed on the Ruby Throne "he spoke as an adult, saying I AM CYRODIIL COME." Kid was scary.

[@Lazt]

Andrew Vanhorne interesting. Zaric, care to clarify? Iz thiz how it waz or, like you've mentioned in other vidz, iz thiz a case of the "unreliable narrator(?)" or a contradiction from an earlier account? Also, Andrew or Zaric care 2 dive deeper in2 thiz "Shonni-Etta"?

[@martywittenberg6601]

Lol i all forgot about the Ebony Warrior. Being the aspect of Ebon-arm is a safe assumption if....and i say if he looks like the model displayed in the video. Hell if he had a golden armor on it would have been ebon-arm himself but i guess aspect had to do so they gave him a the regular ebony armor look.

[@talos8286]

you forgot to mention Potentate Savirien Chorak, and the Middle Dawn dragon break

[@Lazt]

Talos 828 care to expound?

[@khaloth3242]

Wait, I am a little bit confused. I thought that in The Elder Scrolls Online there were just eight divines, but in this video is said that Reman had been worshipped as a god until he was replaced by the Talos (staying in the hearts of the Redguards though), but the Reman Epire fell after the Savirien-Chorak (the second Potente) proved to be useless, which is before the events of TESO and unification of the Empire under the rule of the Talos ending the period of Iterregnum - the period of time in which the TESO takes place- happened after the Planemeld (TESO). PLS HELP!

[@anselmo499]

But by the time of Daggerfall there was still an Altmer Direnni sorceress-queen ruling over Balfiera and Ada-Mantia. And the Alessian Order had not replaced the Emperors. In fact, they decreed that to disobey the Emperor, was to disobey the will of the One.

[@XenonBlu]

12:30 you said the First Era and the Mythic Era are one in the same, but aren't they different starting with the Merethic or Mythic Era then moving on to the First Era.

[@JohnSmith-qb1gw]

Nonononono, the Mythic Era and The 1st Era are two COMPLETELY different things. The Merethic (or Mythic) era ends with the foundation of the Camoran dynasty, and with it the first begins and ends with the assassination of Reman Cyrodiil.

[@grahamdrews9290]

I think he cut that out because it would ruin the pace of the video before this one. He is a writer, after all.

[@metanight788]

Love this series so far. I have one quesion. I'm realativly new to Elder Scrolls lore, (as in I've only played Skyrim so far) Is there a good place to start to learn about the lore for myself?

[@gm2407]

The Potentate rulled for 300 years in the second era, his reign was only just short of the length of the whole third era. I think the third era is too short.

[@philipweilguni2571]

At 12:30 you equate the first and mythic Era's. Dunno if this has been pointed out but i thought i'd leave a comment :)

And Hrol made love unto a hillock and birthed Reman Cyrodiil...His thum at the battle of Pale Pass caused the Akaviri Dragonguard to lay down weapons and kneel before the dragonborn. "I am Cyrodiil Come"

[@chisasa9509]

I still want to know the Correlation between the Amulet of Kings, the Metella, The Heart of Lorkhan, and the First black soul gem. It almost feels as though there needs to be 1 gem to control 1 tower.

[@grahamdrews9290]

There is no connection (save the amulet of kings having both the blood of Akatosh and the blood of Lorkhan) the rest of them were different things created for different purposes

Pretty old comment but the guys below are wrong. In ESO which is during the 2nd era you meet King Lalorian the last Ayleid who only survived all that time because Molag Bal had him imprisoned in his realm. By the end of ESO's campaign King Lalorian dies unfortunately rendering the Ayleids extinct.

[@larrote6467]

but after Cyrodill the 3rd dies and the potentate takes over, wouldn't that mean the pact with Akatosh gets nullified?

[@DarkOmegaMK2]

Supposedly Versidue never actually declared himself formally as emperor as he knew that would cause outrage among the people. He also supposedly continued with the mandates and pending projects Reman the Third had left unfinished after his death but through his rule he was always a potentate i think.
