I'm sure others are/will be posting similar things - this was the first I've seen...




Here is the text of the letter:

Little Mortal,

The coin included with this letter is one of three such disks that hold some significance
to the Order of the Waking Flame. The cultist I acquired it from has no further need
of it, and it may assist you in the near future. Study the coin, for I believe there may be a
clue to the cult’s activities hidden in its etched surfaces. In due time, I will summon you.

Things are about to occur and I will require a mortal’s touch. Be ready.

Lyranth

    Beginning to work on translations... the very bottom word on the setting/rising sun side could be Change...
    ---
    EDIT:
    Quick translation of the first word on the bottom curve of the sun-side (thanks to the recognizable Oht rune), and we get:

    DESTRUCTION CHANGE ___
    ----
    EDIT:
    The translation of the bottom curve of the sun-side is complete:

    DESTRUCTION CHANGE AMBITION

    Pretty standard stuff considering Dagon is involved... though notable, this is what Silus Vesuius from TES V: Skyrim has to say regarding Dagon. "Ah, an excellent question. Mehrunes Dagon is the Daedric Lord of Change, Destruction, and Ambition.". Keep in mind, Vesuius is a descendant of Mythic Dawn members. Hmm...

    So, UESP is suggesting that each coin may be representative of a different Clans in service to Mehrunes Dagon:


    IIRC, someone in another thread pointed out that it appeared like each element (Fire, Frost, Lightning) appeared in the teaser trailer. It would also appear that at least two of those clans have atronachs in their service. Clan Xivlai had Frost Atronachs in their service, and Clan Shardai had Flame Atronachs.

    Again, it's just speculation, but there could be the possibility of the 3 clans appearing with each having its own associated element.

    Now, who knows what ZOS would be doing introducing 3 different allied/opposing factions in a new realm with different sigils and recognizable visual differences via elements...

    If you notice with the symbol on the bottom of the note. It looks like is a crude drawing of a Wraith.
    Its a type of more corrupted form of ghost and lorewise a very deadly form of undead. EqgH5G9XEAIdI6N.png?width=459&height=612ON-creature-Corruption_of_Water.jpg
    You can see why I think its a wrath, The drawing clearly has a hooded robe and sleeves and then the head with two eyes but no mouth or nose matches the ghost looking doll in Greymoor. Not to mention body shape being similar to that of a wraith you see in Oblivion or Eso.

    People keep saying I'm wrong about this, oh ghost are found everywhere, there is a lore reason for this they added one its because of the Soul Burst. Veil was torn, that is why there are so many.
    However this year, you get a lot of ghost references and the word ghost used in context where you would never use the word ghost that I know of but could be wrong. That is how I suspected they might be doing something with them. The word ghost being used in places for varying context that didn't need it and there was many references to ghosts in various forms.

    Especially in the Reach area. We have a crown crate that have one mount named ghost slayer. That Doll quest was a slight reference to the Haunted Anvil house quest in Oblivion. Doll looked like a ghost and also we had to collect something in this case items to take to an alter where suddenly a woman is summoned from it by the looks of it. Just how the Body of the one guy in the anvil haunted house quest sank into the alter and a lich version of him appeared.

    If you're referring to the video teaser that was actually Black Marsh. You can tell by a couple clues
    1. It's a marsh and not a jungle like Valenwood
    2. the Argonian Architecture at the entrance for the tunnel in her Vision.

    Note the geometric designs in the stone work and the Argonian head designs

    You know, I could really care less for what people who are trying to be popular say or do. For that reason I don't watch any of the marketing ploys that companies use them for. Hype marketing and leak marketing has become a big joke....

    If they really wanted to get people peaked, they'd send everyone some little teaser. Maybe something people would have to collaborate on to solve.

    ZOS is rarely if ever that convoluted. Their teasers and foreshadowing is usually fairly straight forward so I doubt it.

    Still we can hope. For one thing it would be fun and for another I keep hoping that next expansion will be the one where we get to kick Merdia's behind. It's long overdue. I dying to have her be the villain, I mean actually villain villain, not just totally dickish ally, in an story.

    __________________________Backstories:_________________________

    Ras Kalik the Vestige, a renown Redguard warrior; He has been blessed to save Tamriel from Molag Bal’s destructive Planemeld while reuniting the Five Companions. His further accomplishments after defeating Molag Bal, has been to stop the destruction of Morrowind, the Clockwork City, return order to the isle of Summerset and create a new king in Wrothgar and a queen in Elsywer. These events have made him a living legend and continue to lead him into new adventures throughout Tamriel, as well as into the hearts of many ladies including the Elf Queen, Aryenn. Over many years of adventurous travels, Ras Kalik had become a loner, until he re-visited his homeland of Alik'r.

    Alik'r and it's cities were overrun by the undead Ra-Netu and therefore he made an allegiance with Alik'r's own Ash'abah tribe. These Ash'abah with his help, cleansed the city of Sentinel in Alik'r desert and it's surrounding areas of the undead brought to life by the Withered Hand. After rescuing Sentinel from the undead zombies, King Fahara’jad’s personal bodyguard the Goliath of Hammerfell, who was given this name by Imperials in the region; was asked to assist the tribe after learning of the defeat of the Withered Hand to the Ash'abah. Kalik promised Goliath he would task him with fighting living enemies on the battlefield if he so desired. Goliath being a Yokudan warrior wields a massive sword in respect to the Ansei, a gift given by the Imperial, Cinan Tharn. Not many soldiers are able to wield double two handed weapons, but Goliath loves to get up and personal in a fight, so he also carries a giant maul, both weapons laced with magical flames.

    Jux Blackheart is a master thief that masquerades as a Bard at the Sisters of the Sands inn, with his younger sidekick Lucky Hunch for pilfering and gambling during this time. Jux was known to infiltrate any towns bank vault he came across and even delved into Ayelid ruins without detection. Kalik can vividly recall the night he met the famed thief. Jux found himself rummaging thru a slightly inebriated Kalik’s pocket for too long, on a full-mooned night and because of his greed and the glimmer of his golden armor in the moonlight. He lost his left pinky fingertip as a lesson! But in return, he gained a new friend, as it was his first time since a child being caught red-handed...

    Upon arrival back in the Alik'r after many moons of adventuring, Ras Kalik ventures to Bergama. Visiting The Winking Jackal, he runs into Jux Blackheart, who introduces him to the coin game Crowns vs Forebearers (Heads vs Tails) and Golden Dwemer (RBG).... Jux constantly takes gold from the unfortunate thru theft or gambling, his biggest gambling victim is actually his partner in crime known as Lucky Hunch the Gambler. Lucky doesn't mind losing any gold coins to Jux... as Jux saved him from Altmer slavers in Summerset, by stealing a key and sending him on a boat to the mainland years prior. Lucky spent years in slavery with Khajiits in Summerset and picked up the art of subterfuge, using illusion magic disguises and stealing there.

    Kaotik Von’Daemon an outcast, and a half-caste between a Breton mother and a Redguard father. Kaotik become a pariah due to his conjuration of Daedra pets. He was taught healing magic during his childhood years by his Breton mother. His father due to Redguard customs exiled him from the desert, sending him by wagon caravan to be a soldier in the war in Cyrodiil. He happened to meet Kalik while traveling from Alik'r, during this long caravan ride the caravan he was in was ambushed in Bangkorai by a group of bandits. Kalik by chance was also traveling thru this area on his Auridon Warhorse (which was bestowed to him by his friend, Darien Gautier). During this ambush, Kalik was able to rescue five hostages from the bandits. Kaotik was the first rescued, and Ras Kalik also recruited him to be in the Ash'abah tribe. These core Ash'abah tribesmen may never be seen together in travel as they partake in their own adventures but they always know what each other is doing; as they frequent a hideout in northern Bankorai. Their hideout an old Orc castle ruin, is kept watch by Nuzhimeh and she passes messages written between them, and frequently they also enjoy her company and her bed.

    The other men rescued were a Dunmer banker, an Imperial mercenary and two other soldiers, an Imperial and a Breton Knight, stating proudly he was an Akavir descendent. One of the Imperials, Cinan, claimed to be related to Abnur Tharn the Battlemage of the Imperial Elder Council (One of Ras Kalik's mentors in the Five Companions). Cinan Tharn was really Abnur's drunkard treasure hunting illegitimate son. He was caught smuggling artifacts out of the Ayleid ruins in Cyrodiil and the elder of the two Imperials was Tyrus Septim a retired Imperial navy battle-mage (now a Lycan mercenary living in the city of Rimmen) and guard to the Tharn family. As much as Abnur Tharn hated his half-sister Euraxia, he dislikes his bas†ard son Cinan more. Tyrus now a ruffian and privateer had been paid by Abnur Tharn to watch over Cinan as much as possible. Cinan Tharn a drunkard, loves to drink at least a quarter barrel of Nord mead before he raids various delves and dungeons for relics to sell on the black market. Cinan also plans to one day, run an illegal gambling ring... which he thinks will net him more gold for his wares.

    The Dunmer captive shackled to the Imperials looked familiar to Kalik from his time in Morrowind.... and he recognized him as Tythis Andromo a House Telvanni slave-owner and banker from Vvardenfell. During a rough interrogation to Tythis, Ras Kalik learnt why the bandits accosted him. The racist Dunmer was providing slaves as soldiers for the Three Banner War. The bandits were trying to negotiate a lucrative ransom for Andromo and the Imperials.... Kalik did not need any of this gold and he could never set Tythis free as he did with the two Imperial soldiers. His past involvement with slavery and war crimes, made Kalik's blood boil. He chose not to execute Tythis, as he figured the worse punishment for this former rich and opulent slave owner, is to now be an imprisoned servant for Ras Kalik and the tribe.

    Herzog Zwei the Genesis a reknown Imperial/Akavirri battle-mage. His roots going back to Akavir through his mother’s bloodline. (His mother is descended from the Akaviri, through Versidue-Shae, and his Imperial father met her in Hakoshae, while traveling) Herzog earned the nickname "the Genesis" from his father as a child, as he was his mother's first born child, and last, as she tragically died in child-birth.

    Herzog was seeking to purchase an artifact from Cinan Tharn, before their capture and was meeting Tyrus while in Rimmen, who introduced him to Cinan. This artifact being the Ayelid artifact; the sword Sinweaver. After their rescue and the exchange of gold to Cinan for the sword he decided to slip away before Ras Kalik could question who he was, and why the Akavir descendant really wanted that sword. Herzog was headed to Nagastani — An Ayleid ruin in eastern Cyrodiil. He had read in scrolls that the Sword would give him magical powers to meet his mothers spirit, if he performed an Ayleid ritual at an old shrine hidden there. Equipped with the artifact sword, he was off to start his own adventure but Ras Kalik, did indeed notice the sword however and instead sent a letter to Jux Blackheart (whom also was interested in Ayleid treasures), to attempt to find Herzog and acquire the sword. (*Azani Blackheart in Elder Scroll's Oblivion is Jux's descendant some 747 years later)

    And so the Redguard, Imperial and Akaviri men parted ways ... While Ras Kalik went off to Elsweyr to encounter the latest threat to Tamriel, with Abnur Tharn and Sai Sahan - - DRAGONS!! Little did Ras Kalik know a few people were awaiting him in Senchal besides Sai. A necromancer survived his attack on the Withered Hand, while in Alik'r. The necromancer known as Auriek Siet'ka is also following him to the land of the Khajiits and Cacique the Sage of Ius a Shaman mystic who has become attuned spiritually with Tu'whacca (a Redguard God) and Ius (the Animal God), after being burned severely by the escaped dragons in Elsywer, is awaiting his arrival also. Aurik is a soldier of the Daggerfall Covenant that was introduced to necromancy while in the military, even though this magicka art is not spoken of openly by most of the Military leaders. He came to Alik'r and worked with the Withered Hand before Ras Kalik intervened on their plans. After the defeat of the Withered Hand, he aligned with the Worm Cult, and is constantly adapting and perfecting his necromantic arts.

    After his journey to Rimmen, Kalik heads south to Senchal, in the southern regions of Elyswer. This new adventure will also put him on a path to meet a strange Redguard man. The stranger which was infected with an untreated Peyrite disease and also was the exiled from the Order of the New Moon cult, due to his sickness. He originally joined the cult to worship Laatvulon, the green dragon, mistakenly thinking it was the Daedric prince Peyrite. This confused and suffering cultist is known as Tsar al-Bomba and he is on a path to spread the disease. He was originally infected in Orccrest while recruiting members there. Can Ras Kalik and the shaman Cacique cure this poor soul, only time will tell. Little does Tsar al-Bomba know, that his infection is tied to Vampirism, and eventually the desire for blood will take over his mind. Senchal also offers Kalik his latest love interest... Aeliah. Whom he fondly led thru battles with the Dragonguard.

    After the trek thru the heat, tropical and desert climate of Northern and Southern Elyswer, Ras Kalik heads north to the cold mountain range of Skyrim. His companion friend Lyris beckons for him with a letter sent by crow...

    Movárth Piquine - a former vampire hunter (now infected), within the Fighter's Guild (and a secretive necromancer) was in Skyrim working with the Morthaal Guard. On a patrol mission he was caught in Frewien's ice curse outside of Morthaal with the frozen undead. Movárth's vampiric infection kept him from becoming an undead minion to the curse. He was able to use necromantic ice-magic to encase himself safely until he was freed with Freiwen, when the Vestige Ras Kalik broke the curse.

    Uri Ice-Heart - brother of Urfon Ice-Heart. The twin sons of Atli and Oljourn Ice-Heart. The Ice-Heart family are originally from Markarth but now reside on the Jerall Mountain range near Cyrodiil, with their younger sister Araki. The twins had joined the Winterborn Reachmen while living in Markarth. Urfon pushed west to Orsinium with the Winterborn Clan, leaving his family behind. Uri stayed behind with his parents and sister to live in the family cabin for safety, avoiding the Vampire plague infiltrating the Reach. After news reaches him and he hears of Urfon's death... Uri leaves and heads home and is seeking vengeance. Meanwhile, his sister has also moved on to Windhelm to join the Fighter's guild. He will visit his sister, once before going to seek vengeance and she will craft him armor mixed with ice, called Stalhrim armor. Uri fearing death, after his brother's passing, falls victim to the convincing talk of Movárth at a Nordic tavern, and will also becomes a vampire.

    I'm hoping Mehrunes is a red herring/reference to Oblivion. We need more main storylines like Orsinium and Murkmire were it's more "mortals" being the bad ones. Let the princes rest from world domination for once. Maybe have one of the less shown ones have a side story but not the main doom and gloom plot.

    Can't make sense of the goat/sheep's head. The background is from the Mysterium Xarxes, and the backside is Mehrunes Dagon's emblem, but the goat itself only reminds me of Markarth, and we've just been there.

    Maybe it's noteworthy the goat has a (red?) diamond on its face, but I'm not sure.

    I'm gonna predict that the plot revolves mostly around the origin of the Mysterium Xarxes, and not around Dagon making another attempt at taking over Tamriel. He'll probably be a kind of antagonist, but it won't be that on the nose (I hope).

    Pretty cool that folks are translating the daedric runes on the coin! Kinda like how the community translated that parchment with the Daedric runes on it from the Greymoor update. Kudos y'all :)

    I also read somewhere that destruction is coming to our beloved Tamriel....

    I wonder if the are going to turn ESO's rendition of Tamriel upside down...kinda like how WoW did with the Cataclysm patch. Basically everything was in shambles. For those that aren't familiar with that patch.

    All signs are starting to shape up that way, at least from my personal PoV.

    Just speculation at this point though.

    A wolf could relate to Solitude or Kvatch ... but I don't see what any of these cities would have to do with Dagon. Also, no diamond, but a kind of crown?

    I'm also not aware that the Daedra-clans represented by the coins (as uesp suggested) are associated with certain animals. It's really quite odd, Dagon doesn't seem like an animal person.
    Alandrol Sul: He's making another Numidium?!?
    Vivec: Worse, buddy. They're buying it.

    He is actually we have several lore creatures that were added that have been touched by Merhunes Dagon himself.
    Including a Horse, and there is mudcrabs associated with his realm.

    I have a question for all of you lore-people.

    Just like all "year long" stories had a racial theme (were somehow connected to one of playable races of Tramiel),
    is new year long story going to be Imperial - Themed or Argonian - Themed ?

    Any one has a clue ?
