If the Skyrim debuff represents the canon way the sun is supposed to hinder vampires it's possible they do it simply because it's not enough to prevent them from doing stuff normal humans do. You're also told in talking to them that basically they get blood by preying on passing travelers every so often but they aren't hostile otherwise. If they have the typical form of vampirism then perhaps they just think their farce is the easiest way to keep from being discovered. Alternatively they might be attached to their previous lives as humans and thus choose to only act on the vampiric impulses to the extent that they need to survive.

Camel, I can guarantee that they are indeed true lumberjacks. The trees in the river are what is called a logjam. Floating logs down rivers was the preferred method of moving them from where they were cut to the mill in times before automobiles.

my headcanon is that the Jarl allows them to sustain themselves on "undesirables" (Mer, beastfolk, etc) and permission to use the mill as a cover in exchange for a supply of lumber to help control prices and their help in keeping the local lycanthrope population down (which would be a real problem in a densely wooded, trade rich area that's popular with Hircine). so imo they're effectively government-sanctioned vampiric lumberjack werewolf hunters :P

Whiterun is a bigger city as well, so I think its safe to asume the Riverwood mill could be working just to suply itself and Whiterun. Also, Falkreath could be keeping its prices low not just for its citizens but for exporting as well.

Here’s my theory: they pay off the Jarl in exchange for “hunting rights”. The Jarl has already proven he doesn’t mind if his citizens and travelers are preyed upon on the road, as long as he benefits. Just look at how he dealt with the bandit camp in the Hearthfire DLC. That’s why they run the mill, not only to look less conspicuous, but also because they use the profits to pay off the Jarl. This allows them to live more open and freely, and gives them something to do in their spare time. That’s why someone hired the Dark Brotherhood. After all, why pay tons of money to hire an assassin when you can just tell the guards, “hey there are two vampires at this mill, go kill them,” because the Jarl won’t do anything about it.

There is a vampire lair in nearby Shriekwind Bastion.

The mill is called 'Half Moon Mill', and it just so happens to contain a book about werewolves, while it would be amazing to think that this was meant to hint at them being Underworld style hybrids, I think there's another possibility that doesn't require us to assume something that breaks the lore as we know it. Perhaps the mill was _originally_ owned by a werewolf, who basically had the same idea we're suggesting for the vampires; to set up a place far from any cities where he could transform in peace come the full moon. Hert and Hern stumbled upon this location and realized that such a setting would aid them for similar reasons, and killed the werewolf to take over the property (or at a stretch, maybe the mill belonged to Sinding before the cursed ring fiasco, and it was at this stage the couple took control of the mill. After all, I don't recall there being a property with Sinding's name attached to it anywhere in the game). Alternatively it's possible that the mill was originally supposed to belong to a werewolf when we discover it, but Bethesda decided to change this later on, I know that this 'out of game' explanation isn't really in the spirit of this series, but thought it was worth mentioning. Side note, I don't think the daywalking intrinsically needs to mean as much as you think, for one it's not actually correct that only those with that primordial strain of vampirism are immune to the sun, vampires of Cyrodil (i.e. the Porphyric Hemophilia strain) are immune to sunlight when well fed. More to the point though, the vampires of Skyrim (i.e. the Sanguinare Vampiris strain) are not _damaged_ by sunlight, only weakened by it, so it's entirely possible that the couple simply choose to suffer this weakness as to keep up appearances when travelers do appear to purchase lumber. I can think of something that could count as evidence towards this, but only in a the same 'it's in the game, so it's canon' sense as the hybrid theory. If you block out the sun with Auriel's Bow, the two will remark the same as other vampires, saying things like "Skyrim is ours!". This implies that they are in fact gaining the same benefit as other vampires when the sun is blocked out, which of course wouldn't be the case if they were already immune to sunlight. It's also worth noting that Serana's discomfort in the sun doesn't necessarily count as evidence against this idea. For one, it makes sense that vampires who regularly force themselves out into the sun like Hert and Hern (while doing little to block it as Serana does with her hood), would be more tolerant to it than a Vampire that spends their life hiding from the sun. To stretch things a little, the lore basically says that, as vampires starve, they become more 'vampiric' which increases both their strengths and weaknesses. With that in mind, you could argue that the fact Vampire Lords are basically identical to Skyrimian vampires, only with a powerful transformation (and according to the lore, are meant to be more powerful in general, although I don't believe this is the case in game) might mean they are generally 'more vampiric' and thus, would actually feel a greater discomfort than regular vampires in sunlight.

The fact is you were right in your first comment, feeding reduces your weaknesses _but also_ your strengths. So in The Elder Scrolls there's always an incentive to feed (to get stronger) _but also a separate incentive to starve_ (to have less profound weaknesses), the only difference with the way said I find more intuitive is that those incentives are reversed.

I don't think half-vampires exist in the Elder Scrolls. Vampirism is caused by a disease you get from someone infected with it biting you, kind of like magical rabies or AIDS. Inheriting part of vampirism would be the same as inheriting half of your parent's rabies or AIDS, it makes no sense. The Gray Prince's father is a vampire but that just means his father is a vampire, not that he is half-vampire. Do note that he doesn't have red eyes or other vampiric features, unlike the two characters in Skyrim

Don’t forget the Count of Skingrad! The highest ranked vampire in the series.

The Lady Stone is relatively nearby in the middle of Lake Illinalta, and it gives boosts to stamina and health regeneration (which the sun would prevent). Maybe Hert and Hern used it?

The first time I played Skyrim, fresh out of Helgen, I headed straight for the mesmerising beauty of Falkreath. Pines have always felt welcoming to me. Firstly stumbling across the Lady Stone after a swim, I then headed for Half-Moon Mill on the distant shore. I remember my investigation and the realization about it's residents it led me to. Good times. This video took me back, Camel, thanks for the great content!

I believe if you have dawnguard installed hunters around falkreath at night will sometimes transform into werewolves like very rarely.

The Necromage and the ancient burial are closer to Shriekwind Bastion, which is the home of a boss vampire. As to supplying wood, in that setting, it's easier to ship wood via rivers, using the current to pull the logs or heavy barges, Half-moon mill is the best position to supply Helgen, and the wood across the river may be to keep wood bound for Helgen from being pulled by the current towards that waterfall.

The best parts of these videos aren't even the weird theories or interesting facts presented, but the hilariously TERRIBLE mods Camel reveals that he uses when he makes them. Did you see Serana, for god's sake? I almost choked on my drink laughing.

I was too distracted by the chicken's nest with half a dozen eggs.

The logs at the river are, maybe for, *Body Collection?* Bandits (Or anyone interested in assassination) might throw bodies in the river, and the logs in the river would interrupt the water current, so the corpses get collected by the vampire couple. Hert states that she and Hern can get everything they need from the *"Occasional traveler"* That other people just *"Makes things complex"*

I have a mod that lets you have dinner with npc’s. And my character regularly has dinner with Hert and Hern. He’s not a vampire, but provides raw meat to them and we have it for dinner. Still raw (thought it was a glitch). We eat and laugh and then I leave. Now that I know that they’re vampires, nothing will change. They are a lovely couple.

I think it's probably just a matter of coding limitations. If you're friendly with them, they can actually be kidnapped for the dawnguard quest. Because of that, they are probably just coded as citizens of falkreath instead of vampires

Keeping wood in water isnt unheard of. Logging companies hose their logs down with water all the time, and people used to store wooden canoes under water, it would cause the bark to rot off but the dry burned wood would be fine.

Here's another idea: The dead bodies are actually the remains of travelers killed by werewolves and these vampires are hunting and killing the werewolves by following the trail of carnage... and of course not letting the blood of the slain villagers go to waste. Their apparent ability to work in broad daylight might be the result of feasting on werewolf blood relatively recently.

The tail is triggering me. Too many times has my cat decided to play fight with my hands as she wags her tail like that.

Here's an interesting little curiosity: what actually was the Eye of Magnus and, as an extension, what is the overall agendas of the Psijic Order? We are left to conclude that whatever the Eye is, it was important enough to the Snow Elves to start the war that led to their downfall. And based on the Psijics intervening there but not in the uses of Elder Scrolls or the Alduin situation we have to assume the danger of the Eye is immense. It also seems to be breaking down reality? Or something? With the rift in Aftershock and magical anomalies. This could get even more wild, though, because of the in-universe theory the Greybeards have that the Dragonborn didn't kill Alduin, just delayed him. Is the reason Alduin emerged in 4E201 that the Eye was destined to be found in 4E201, triggering a possible apocalypse and summoning Alduin? That's flimsy, I grant you, but of the several world-ending threats at play in Skyrim the reclusive supermages only were concerned with this one. And if the Eye isn't the greatest threat, why do the Psijics care so much about maneuvering you? Think about this as well: they could just take it, but they don't. They wait for it to be activated before they ship it off to Artaeum. To see what would happen? Did we give them a doomsday weapon?

Not directly, but theorizing that Alduin must be present at the end of the world, if the Eye threatened to end the world there would be need of Alduin. Most other crises in Elder Scrolls history don't actually threaten to end the world, just radically transform it, so things like the Oblivion Crisis might not have needed Alduin. Admittedly this particular part of the idea is less about the Eye and more about the mechanisms of the end of a kalpa in general.

i'd like to point out that each time the vampire curse is forwarded it is slightly weaker, and the victim slightly more human. for example, only a daughter of coldharbour, and her siree's can pass on major vampiric gifts, such as the form of vampire lord

In the topic of vampires, the big question is: How much did Falion knew about Movarth's moves in Morthal? He was strangely absent in my game when doing the quest and... "the marsh is treacherous, you do well to not wander it at night" (Alva's journal tells about Movarth in the marsh at night) "[...] I know enough to see a vampire where others would see a man." (Alva is his neighbor) "My... talents... are useful here. I help maintain order, even if it goes unnoticed."🤔 Specially this last word, more so when combined with his absense🤔

@MrAranton

I think there might be political consideration: Bolund - who runs the mill in Falkreath is a Stormcloak and might have refused to supply Helgen. Gerdur - who runs the mill in Riverwood also supports the Stormcloaks. On top of that: Balgruuf's desire to stay neutral might have resulted in him ordering the citizens of Whiterun Hold to not supply either side with construction materials. Ivarstead is on the other side of a mountain range; getting lumber from there to Helgen would be a pain in the butt. Also: Jarl Leila Lawgiver supports the Stormcloaks. Half-moon mill might be the closest lumber mill willing to deal with Helgen. And the Dark Brotherhood contract on Hern could have more to do with the mill's dealings with Helgen than with him being a vampire...

@Lawrence330

That makes sense, in a feudalistic sort of way. The Jarls would have to negotiate a trade deal given that the resources of the land "belong" to the Jarl, and are harvested under a grant or charter from said Jarl. Therefore, it isn't a stretch to imagine that Helgen would pay a tariff to "import" wood from Riverwood while Half-Moon Mill is "locally" sourced and therefore cheaper. Preemptive strike for the argument that holds wouldn't pay tariffs on goods from other holds because they're all in the same country of Skyrim: The U.S. used to have interstate tariffs, it's addressed specifically in the Constitution.

Hey Camel, there's another crossbreed in elder scrolls. You can do it in skyrim. You get to the part in the vampire side of dawnguard where you go find valerica but before you go to the castle garden, you go do the companion quest to the point where they wanna turn you. Make serana wait outside while you go to the underforge as normal but before you drink the blood, hold the power button down to turn into a vampire lord. Let off the power button as you activate the blood bowl and you'll spawn outside the forge as a vampire lord. Then all you do is revert back, get serana to infect you, then pick the beast form power and turn into a werewolf. Boom. Now you can do both. I've had mixed results with immunity to sunlight though. It seems like you only get that if you've recently gone beast but not lord. Don't know if that helps your theory or not
