  • I get the weirdly opposite wherein my brain starts to try to translate it through whatever lexicon I may have, Korean for example don’t know a bit but any Romance language or Germanic language getting rammed through the lexiconic equivalent of Frankensteins monster as presented by HR Giger. I try to avoid Spanish, I can understand spoken Frisian.










  • The Great lakes copper complex also used cold forging which avoids the issues of vaporization. Can’t have your brain melted by vaporized materials if you never melt it down or cast it, though thats only possible due to the relative purity of the more veins.

    Also the Great lakes copper complex most likely kicked off due to the collapse of trade routes making getting good quality stone for tools a right pain in the ass.


  • Does Bronze count as a mineral for these purposes? If so did you know that the earliest form of bronze was arsenical and that large amount of copper deposits used during the copper and bronze age were contaminated by arsenic. This is probably what resulted in early blacksmiths being shamans, because they poisoned themselves while making their tools and went crazy.





  • Just going to point out that the sun in the elder scrolls universe isn’t a ball of plasma and is infact a big ass hole in the fabric of reality from when Magnus pussies out of creation. So it is entirely possible that plants could grow without sunlight in the elder scrolls.

    Also for any more specialized lore junkies are vampires hurt by the raw Magicka from the sun or is it more of a raw lumens thing?

    Also also the Empire had a space program, do with that what you will.






  • What I’m talking about is a folk belief system that overlaps with theology, wherein the difference between culture, tradition, and what we call religion are so intermixed and overlapped that they are effectively inseperable.

    The situation I am talking about is one wherein there is no religious control because there is no structure to control it with, wherein theological debate is not between priests but between kinsmen who are at worst separated by eldership. In such a situation the abuse is an outcropping of culture not religion, or at least is about as secular as you can get with such folk beliefs present.

    Sorry I recently read an article going over pre Christian anamistic beliefs in Europe and it melted my brain. There is no religion just culture and traditions in such society.
