Can anyone tell me the complete Stort of thıs traıler from the fırst Scene tıl the End?
I really want ro know because Im such a StoryLover and ı need to know...
Who are these creatures? And why are they fıghtıng?

Just play the game and you'll learn.

Humans and Argonians aside, most prominent creatures that appear in the trailers:

* Tiny creatures jumping/climbing around with tails: Scamps, tiny daedric creatures mostly out for mischief.
* Creatures in dark black/reddish armor with bright blue glowing eyes: Dremora, far more powerful daedra that mostly serve as elite troops.
* Giants with clubs or flails instead of hands: Flesh Atronachs, just think of Frankenstein's monsters

The trailer tells a story, but there's not a lot more to it. The Imperial City (city featured in the trailer) is besieged by daedric forces (the "things" coming from the sky), the empire is crumbling. The three alliances try to invade the city and capture it.

The Daggerfall Covenant is represented by the hooded Breton archer and the soldiers trying to attack using the "ballista bridges" at the beginning. The Aldmeri Dominion is represented by the High Elven sorceress and a few Bosmer (using skulls as helmets). The Ebonheart Pact is represented by the Nord warrior (i.e. the viking guy) and the Argonians (lizard men).

Mannimarco – a mighty necromancer – uses the whole conflict for his own geins. He's the white haired pale guy in the throne room like room at the end, summoning the blueish black smoke.

The only small detail you can miss is that the Breton hero is actually killed by the Dremora and later resurrected as an undead soldier. The sorceress later on only lifts the curse rather than actually killing him.

Can ZOS actually explains what's going on? Is this before or after the time in the game? Is that Ayrenn?

Even though this is an old topic the release of the Summerset cinematic gives us some more details. We can now say that the high elf is almost certainly Ayrenn...

Why on earth she is a redhead in the cinematics but blonde in game is beyond me. Either that or the cinematic is showing a random high elf in her place while she described her dream (odd?)
