Wouldve put her on the true path to glory, the great conquered we all know she’ll end up being! I can see it now. In some alternate universe where Brund didn't become Jarl and duel Baldur. He's still a General, walking down the dock at Kyne's Watch weeks before they're set to sail for Valenwood. He's dwelling on that time Baldur's teenage apprentice kicked his teenage apprentice's ass in Solitude. He passes an unassuming girl and pauses. Something feels off about her. She ain't big, she probably ain't even a Nord. But he can sense it... the raw potential. Round 2, you sons of bitches. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBossBalrog Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I agree with Colonel. At some point I want Tacticus to fucking just go on a blood crazed killing spree, and lop off their heads mother fucking Sulla style Like I said in the PM really like it. Politics are not my forte in writing, so i'm glad ya'll can give Cyrodiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllefhy8wvghjshb () the limelight it deserves in that regard. But it does kinda annoy me he's trapped in this situation through blackmail to start with. When it comes to their predictions about the Empress...ehhhh I hope Dales won't decide to burn her political enemies, and I doubt she will...but she'll hold the fear of said burning as a tool to be certain (She's going to feed some rapists and criminals to Naafy though) She'll search for allies certainly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y'all are more sympathetic to Tacitus than I am! He's not going to get anything he doesn't deserve, lets just put it that way. I'm really curious to see how things play out in the next chapter, with Dales seeking out allies while using Naafy as the stick if people don't come around to her.

ColonelKillaBee Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Yea I saw that she mentioned that the Spider for her wasn’t Mephala but somehow I’m still drawn to it because of the imagery, and her web of lies and secrets is pretty similar regardless. So maybe she’s just inspired by the sphere but not influenced directly. It would e very much like her to influence indirectly, while others think of someone else like in the case of the night mother possibly. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah I was just messing with you, because the Spider is totally within Mephala's sphere, with an emphasis on certain parts of that sphere and rejection of others. My intention was to show that Daedra worship probably doesn't always come in a specifically Daedric package. Especially in a place like Nibenay, where you have dozens of small cults that probably worship Daedra by another name. Especially in a totemic way, since the First Pocket Guide mentions the Nibeneans worshipping god-animals. And other speculative lore stuff on Nibenean cults that I like has gone into more depth about stuff like that. So I wanted to put my own spin on it, by combining the totemic religion with quasi Daedra worship and throwing in a connection to the Cult of the Ancestor Moth, since that was a really cool bit of lore I liked 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Good Doctor Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 @BTC I’d kill for your ability to describe settings. Seriously. 3 hours ago, BTC said: Y'all are more sympathetic to Tacitus than I am! He's not going to get anything he doesn't deserve, lets just put it that way. Yeah, as far as blackmailing goes, they’re honestly taking it pretty easy on him so far. He’s still got his job, still being licensed to do what he wants. Just on the wrong people’s orders. I am actually wondering a bit if that particular conflict will ever come to a head. It’s so far out of Tacitus’ league that unless the Nibens demand something of him that he absolutely refuses, I could absolutely see him never breaking free. Especially when he’s much more interested in directing all of his thoughts and hatred towards the Thalmor. I get that sense even more now that Javolia is looking like she’s gonna get entangled in the shadow magic plot. It seems like she has a good hold on Tacitus and is able to trust others to handle him while she goes in a different direction entirely. 1 hour ago, BTC said: Especially in a place like Nibenay, where you have dozens of small cults that probably worship Daedra by another name.

I don't want to say either way, but you're absolutely right that the way things are going right now, it's very unlikely that conflict would come to a head. But that can always change, especially with how dangerous war is. Though to be honest, I think Tacitus would chafe under anyone's orders, not just someone blackmailing him, so in that regard it's not altogether different than if Krojun was telling him what to do I've really enjoyed the Niben stuff too. I love that they're political and magical but in a totally different and non-traditional way compared to the Bretons. The Bretons are like classic European high fantasy, while the Nibeneans have the other cultural influences that make it fun to write. I just wish I knew more about some of those cultures so I could include even more weird and fun stuff. Though, making it up usually works too, and then you don't fall into the trap of turning Cyrodiil into Rome like Bethesda has 7 hours ago, The Good Doctor said: And here’s a sentence I bet nobody has ever typed before: Hide contents That spider-bite induced weaving session/vision quest was awesome. You know, as a person who really hates spiders, I'm not exactly sure why they've become such a focus. Maybe there's some psychoanalysis someone could do that would reveal why that is. It was certainly not fun writing about a spider crawling up her arm to bite her on the neck. Maybe I'll transition to snakes or something. I like those way more than spiders.
