Dragon under Stros M'Kai

SilverIce58

So I was reading up on some of the lore, and looking through the creatures of each, and every game, and I stumbled upon something interesting. There's a dragon that lives in the treasure vaults under the palace on Stros M'Kai. I'm not suggesting that we be able to see the dragon (Nafaalilargus), but I think it'd be interesting if there was some dialogue that hinted to something living down there, although, I'm not entirely sure how long he has actually been down there, so I'm not sure if he is there now. Apparently Nafaalilargus was a loyal soldier of Tiber Septim during the Second Era, and was self-labeled "the Proud Jewel of the Imperial Crown".

Maybe he's down there now, maybe not. Nevertheless tho, it's an interesting tidbit of lore that I didn't know previously.

tldr; There might be a greedy red dragon living in the treasure vaults under Stros M'kai's Palace

If I'm not mistaken, he was part of the old Redguard game and was killed by Cyrus. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong

SilverIce58

Yeah he was, but Redguard happened later than ESO

At this point in the timeline the dragon is not there. Wont be there until the battle of Hunding Bay and Stros M'kai being captured by the Imperials.

This is where I found the dragon
http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Nafaalilargus
I know it's not as trusted a site for lore, but it was the only one i found with info about the dragon from the actual game

A dragon you say... *grabs shovel, pick, lockpicks, rounds up the sneaky, thieving types he groups with* Boys, We have the target of a lifetime!!

If I remember correctly, and I really might not, he should be somewhere around the Rivenspire/Stormhaven border at this point.

He's not the only dragon alive still


In fact there are several, Numinex, Paarthurnax, And a few other named dragons I don't recall off the top of my head.

Also the Undead dragon living in the Soul Cairn. Even though he's technically Bound in there he never truly died either

SilverIce58

True he's not the ONLY dragon alive still, but he's just a new addition to the list of dragons that are alive still

He might be, Nahfahlaar and Nafaalilargus are similar sounding names, and it's generally thought of to be the same dragon, but what's unknown is if dragons change their names or not. However, Nahfahlaar was last seen in 2E 369, and Nafaalilargus died in 2E 864, so all bets are off lol.
Also, that list of dragons is accumulated by the dragonguard, and Nafaalilargus was killed by Cyrus who is not affiliated with the dragonguard so it was probably missed by them
