Things we see, but never ask why.....

Sewers....OK, where are all the bathrooms?
Pristine Ruby Ash Wood....where are the Ruby Ash trees?
The troll in Grahtwood at the bank is a "vampire" troll.....are there other vampire creatures like this, and what happens if it uses Mist form to escape the bank cage?

Is there anything you all have questions about?

The sewer is one giant bathroom...

Where is my pack that I always have with me and am carrying multiple items in?

Storm drains are also sewers. I've always interpreted in game sewers that you walk in to be storm drains unless otherwise specified.

I was in Imperial City Sewers the other day. You should have seen the giant lump that floated past..... my friend, that was NOT from any storm...

Always wash your hands after running about in the sewers.

Why are there cradles when there are no children...?

Roztlin45

Who leaves all those backpacks behind? Why aren't they looking for them? Is it ok to eat grapes, meat or other food items from barrels found in tombs? Why can't guards be killed? Are they immortal gods? Why are murder and pickpocketing crimes treated in the same way..a beat down.

How did the giant ships get into Lake Rumare when the Niben River is only a few feet wide in Leyawiin?

Some questions are best left to aged sages.

They warn us about pickpockets but some of the costumes have no pockets.

Why does this one’s loathesome cousin, Pacrooti, holds a lucrative job of crate swindling whilst this one must slay dragons, close vents, destroy monsters and only paid a few measly coins?

How can companions gear drops is ALWAYS purple two handed maul with healing ❤️‍🩹 properties? Who in the Oblivion has use for that!?!?

This one must lie down. Too triggering.

How and where does the bank store my Alinor windmill? Or the hundreds of foods I pre-cooked for the provisioning dailies? Why aren't they rotten after several years?

How can a tiny mudcrab drop a two-handed sword? How can I find a monstrous shell as a furnishing piece inside a much smaller shell? Why are these nice pitcher plant "furnishings" rare drops if they basically grow everywhere on Vvardenfell? Why can't I just pot those and take them with me?

Why are there often masses of undead skeletons in sewers? Did people drown there? If so, what did so many people do in the sewers? If not, were people buried there? Why? Or did someone flush them down the toilet?

Why do we have to put artificial fruits and vegetables in our homes that are made of wax and nickel?

Why do ghosts have gold?
What are they going to spend it on?
Where do they keep it?

Why is it called "Earthgore" when we're not on Earth?
Shouldn't it be called "Nirngore"?

The sewers, I believe, is called Shadowfen.

Heroes/heroines don't need bathrooms on account of firstly, the lack of personal plumbing but mostly due to the excellent valet & laundry service provided by psijic pixies who, during those long load screens while porting, strip off your gear, clean it and re-apply it prior to materialisation at your destination.

That, obviously, also answers the question: how come my gear isn't covered in blood, gore & giblets after that dungeon/trial/battle?

Exactly how many people lost a brother to Captain Blackheart?

Why are my mount's eyes dead, in fact, all of my mounts' eyes are dead.

Why are there so many more members of random cults in caves, than regular people in cities?

On Earth (i.e. Terra), it's kind of hard to leave the place for other worlds. Therefore, most Terran languages use then same word for the ground, and the world in general.

On Nirn, visitors from and visits to other worlds are kind of regular occurrences. Therefore, Tamrielic languages have different concepts for "earth" (i.e. the ground, the element, the stuff you grow your plants in) and the planet Nirn (i.e. the world Tamriel is in, as opposed to Daedric planes or whatever).

So "Earthgore" is fine - it refers to the element of earth, the soil and rock beneath your feet.

How did the large ships in Shadowfen manage to sail there with barely any water to navigate and absolutely no way to enter the ocean?

And why are the Tharn's not appearing with their legions every time someone knocks a Keep about within half a day of Imperial City?

The sewers in Summerset MUST be kept very clean and sanitary since that’s one of the places the Altmer store their wine casks.

-OR- The sewers are actually gross and the wine kept there is intended to be exported to other places, and the snooty elves get to have a laugh

-OR- Altmer don’t actually use the restroom

It’s got to be one of these

Why do I never run out of arrows? I can't craft them, and I never loot them.

Who's throwing all the bags and furniture into the water?

(note that I would NOT like it if I had to craft or gather arrows. I always hate that in games.)

Finally a place I can ask these questions!

1) BOOBS! Everything has boobs! WHY? what the hell comes out of a spriggans wooden wobblies? Sap or milk? Do spriggans breastfeed? What about lamias? Harpies? Spider daedra? Harvesters? Argonians even have them and we have a detailed description of how argonians lay eggs in a murkmire quest so why do they also have boobs? They all have boobies!

2) ghosts. You can KILL ghosts in eso. So they are alive? When you kill a ghost, is there a ghost of the ghost? Can this super ghost also be killed? Does it have a mega ghost after that? Is there an infinitely generating line of ghost stages that gets spookier and scarier the more ghost levels it achieves through ghost death?

There are children but you just can't see them. That's why it's called "cradle of shadows"

Argonians evolved and adapted during centuries of slavery to also become nursemaids for Dunmer children. And since Argonians are cold blooded, their milk comes out pre-refrigerated so that it doesn't spoil in the intense Morrowind heat and humidity.

So you reckon walking into the interview with a sandwich board that says “CRATES ARE EVIL DON’T BUY” was a bit too obvious?

All the children were kidnapped to be slave workers for the Thuggee cult that worships the Goddess Kali - they are digging for the lost sacred stones…..

….hang on, wrong franchise.
