    Rich commented yesterday that he has not yet seen anyone guess what the next year's story is about. :disappointed:

    The next chapter is likely on the island Pyandonea (southern summerset) and about the Maormer. The opening scene of the trailer clearly shows the scene described in the lore.

    Edit: If the leaks are correct then it’s High Isle. Breton. We’ll just have to wait and see.

    Official Twitter leaked the images early. High Isle is confirmed.

    To be fair, it was already officially confirmed three weeks ago by the datamine. The Twitter picture just seals the deal.

    And even before that, we were never ever supposed to go to Pyandonea.

    Dune musn't be related to a desert though. There are dunes on coasts of England or France or Germany as well.

    Summerset was "glacier" though.

    For all we know, Dune is a reference to a place that is highly sought after by different factions, with the faction who controls it reaping the rewards from that place.
    DUNE is also all about political feuds between great houses. That alone makes it a perfect fit for Bretons.

    Yup. I thought of that when the word was first datamined, but there was nothing to support the idea back then.
    Perhaps Dune is not a reference though to an environmental feature?

    or the developers are just having fun trolling us with the codename.

    So, no spice that can bend time and space? No giant sand worms? :disappointed:

    Lets hope Bretons will get a "proper" chapter zone. Blackwood was not really about Argonians... If you think about it, it was not truly about Imperials either....

    Thus I am still waiting for a "proper" Chapter zone for those 2.

    No, Blackwood was about the Reachmen Empire, not Imperials.

    yes, and greymoor wasn't about the Nords, and Elsweyr wasn't about the Khajiit

    You could probably argue that Blackwood was about the Empire so it was both Imperials and Reachmen.

    New leak gives some info on the upcoming zones:
    High Isle and Amenos seem to be the new Zones, part of the Systres Archipelago (leak)

    Amenos is apparently a prison island

    The SYS/HI moniker makes sense now, if the main archipelago is Systres, but the Chapter name and probably the main area is High Isle.

    This also should confirm that we don't follow Rich's lead next time around, right? :disappointed: High Island was, I think, the first guess that went out there back when SYS/HI was first datamined, along with "Dune", whatever that means. Plenty of time for news to circulate around the studio.

    Hmmm. I stand unmoved by this comment. Blackwood was not about the Imperial race. It had very little to do with anything about a playable race.

    If you actually look at what is going on, the Imperials are just treated like they are normally treated. They are a backdrop. We might find out a tidbit or two during the course of the adventure, but it is usually standard fair related to the Empire. Nothing is about the Imperial race, and apparently, the Empire is not always about the Imperials. All of the people in Blackwood who were Imperial could have been any race, and it would not have changed the core story. The most of the lore presented in the Chapter wasn't about Imperials, it was about Reachmen and their deal with a Daedric Prince.
