Mysteries You Never Want Solved?

    Elder Scrolls lore has a lot of unsolved mysteries.

    Are the Akaviri snakes, men or both?

    Is Trinimac really Malacath?

    Are ALMSIVI actually dead?

    What happened to the Dwemer?

    There are theories, opinions and points of view on these questions and others like them but no real definitive answers and to be honest I kind of like it that way. The unknown  and unknowable adds to the universe in my opinion and to just get a straight up "yes or no" answer would, in my opinion, make it boring. So what Elder Scrolls mysteries would you like to remain a secret?

    Well, only the Tsacei, a race on Akavir are said to be snake like. As for the ALMSIVI, from Morrowind, we at least know Sotha Sil, and likely Almalexia are dead. Vivec could be around still, maybe he is dead, maybe he just up and left one day. Still I would like to see the Dwemer return, maybe as a main threat.

    I remember a mod that said the Dwemer ended up in their own plain of Oblivion, by becoming something like gods. I remember hearing about the Trials of Vivec after the Events of Morrowind.

    I remember a mod where they were on Secunda I believe, and wanted to invade Nirn, Secrets of the Dwemer, good mod

    That's it, that's the mod. I also liked the mod "Moon and Star" and it's Morrowind influence.

    Maybe the Dwemer comeback as Cyborgs, since they have the technology.

    I do want to know the answer to the first and last ones. I like the mystery surrounding the Ideal Masters.

    That was a good one. Magic of the Magna'Ge was also pretty good

    Then there's a vast war, where the other Mer and Men have to uncomfortably band together to fight off these technology advanced Mer.

    Well like I said, plenty of opinions but no real answers.
