The constant weather issues are too huge and common to be sheer circumstance; I'd say it's a very safe bet the Tsaesci wield strong weather magics. You mentioned Clear Skies, but Storm Call is an even more direct example of such things already clearly being possible for those who master the right magic.

@Roshambo, the Dragonborn can be anyone sentient otherwise, they would not have let you have any race as a Dragonborn. So any sentient being, men or beast, can learn Shouts. Man were just the first to be introducted to them.

The Snakes' only known motivation is to "become" like Dragons, what they mean by that is eat and assimilate dragon blood So they likely know how to shout and can do so with extreme ease since they are likely all dragonborn by now from eating thousands of Dragons

Could explain the humanoid akaviri and them riding horses.

It does not happen all the time, but it does happen. For everyday research the wiki is okay, but if I really want to answer a question right or make a good video I think the best method is to check all references myself and then make my own script instead of plainly copying the wiki.

Anybody whos a bit knowledgable about magnetism and the cosmos knows that earth has a magnetic field and when a solar storm hits it, it hits the magnetic field at one part and causes a discharge at the place where there are weak magnetic presence. This is seen in the north as the aurora. However after messing around on the dragonborn dlc i looked up and realized that mundus is nothing like earth and the aurora cant be a magnetic thing in tamriel. I havent been able to find much on this however so this probably would be a hard thing to make a video on. Maybe backlog the idea until you have a lot of small mysteries to look at

@TheBacknblack92

6 жыл бұрын

FloorPannel the Aurora in the games is caused by magic radiating down to Nirn. When the Magna-Gi and Magnus realized that theyd lose power in the creation of Mundus they left tearing holes in the plane of Oblivion. The holes are the stars and the sun is the giant hole created by Magnus leaving. All magic comes from there. Sometimes the magic is radiating down especially hard at night and is seen in the atmosphere as an Aurora. This is also why the clear skies shout causes one because you're basically sending a bunch of concentrated magic into the atmosphere which causes a reaction that makes the event happen

Lo de los mapas esta genial, no domino tanto el ingles pero la historia de la invasión imperial sobre Akavir y el posterior desastre en Ionith es bastante épica. Aunque hubiera jurado que los soldados del emperador querían escapar a Septimania y de ahi irse en barco con los soldados de esa ciudad.

Tsaeseci is based off japamese society. This is repeated in lore, and you can find shonen-esque armor of the tsaesci (samurai looking). In japan, T infront of an s is entirely silent (ex. Tsunade is pronoumced (Soo-ná-day) in Naruto). As the Tsaesci are based off ancient japan, this naming scheme is likely consistent. Thus, the T in tsaesci is silent, and you get (Say-Ski)

The invadees fight back during winter after much of their land was taken? Sounds familiar..

What I find incredibly odd is that when the tsaesci invading Tamriel and then fell to Reman’s voice proclaiming him Dragonborn, why didn’t it happen here? All along the septim bloodline are Dragonborn and surely during the negotiations or in battle Uriel would’ve spoken correct? So why on earth didn’t the tsaesci bow down to him? Or is it that with reman they did it to save their skin.

@ralphthompson9033

2 жыл бұрын

That’s a really good point but I think the best explanation is that we honestly know little to nothing about the tsaesci. There history, overall culture, politics, etc. It’s entirely possible Reman’s Tsaesci army didn’t represent the greater Tsaesci race and that perhaps they were a “radical” group or something that left Akavir in search of the Dragonborn. Another explanation could simply be Uriel was invading their homeland and they were already pissed off

one question tho...in Skyrim, The Blades Swords, they are Akavir blades. why?

I gotta figure the Tsaesci manipulated the weather patterns, personally. The timing was too perfect for both the storms that destroyed a portion of the eastern fleet, and the dry winds that ruined the colony's harvest in the spring/ summer. Fleet gets turned back right before the attacks began, then right when crops become necessary and rations run low the heat ruins said crops. Leaving just enough time for a retreat, but not to return before winter in theory. Both cases weaken imperial forces too drastically to appear as simple bad fortunes or peculiar climatic patterns, for me. Also, didn't the Sloads do something similar before sinking their island? Either way if they could change the land that dramatically, doesn't seem a huge stretch to think magic could affect weather. Then as already mentioned there were the clear skies and storm call shouts.... and Alduin's meteor storm shout that I was always jealous of. Also could explain in part why the Tsaesci retreated and didn't send larger forces to attack the colony. No need when magic can neutralize enemy forces without losing as many of your own troops. Seems the biggest mistake for the empire was bringing the civilians instead of more troops, weather aside. Does raise the question however: If akaviri mages could affect weather in their homeland, why not do so during their invasion of Tamriel?

Should have landed on the island next to the mainland to utilize as a base of operations for the invasion. Even when they lost all settlements on the mainland they could at least have a rally point for troops and citizens to fallback to. Not only this but the enemy would have to use ships to assault the island unless the Tsaesei can breath underwater however like many things no official accounts have been made on what they are capable of.

Why didn’t the empire take the island off the coast first? It would’ve been a hell of a lot easier for them to hold, and would’ve given them a rally point to fall back on.

I think Tsaeci is pronunced Say-sea

Shouts are a form of magic any sentient race can learn but only dragons and the Dragonborn can learn it as naturally as one breathes. Other than that, it takes a decade minimum to learn just one “common” shout. Some Shouts take a decade to learn one word of it.
