    Y-yes. Innovative Telvanni. Inspiring Telvanni. Illustrious even! Telvanni do take to compliments well, right?

    What are you trying to insinuate? I am a very friendly person, I just needed money for my research! Should I have worked in some shady cornerclub instead? No, thank you, that would be absurd! Do I look like Syldras the bartender or Syldras the tavern wench to you?! Maybe Vanus Galerion has done something like that when he was younger, but we Telvanni surely don't!

    I'm friendly. Very, very friendly. I'm so friendly I would even try to save Nirn from the occasional world-destroying Daedric or non-Daedric threat! ...Okay. Let's be honest: I'm doing that for the tea. Where would I get tea from if Nirn would suddenly stop existing? Or exist in a, um, state that makes growing tea quite hasslesome? The planes of Oblivion are no appropriate alternative. Have you ever tasted Daedric tea? It's awful!

    Oh...Oh yes, yes, of course! Erm.. Master Syldras....? Your Honor, Syldras? Daring Syldras? Oh great and powerful and illustrious and kind Telvanni Mage Syldras.

    I would NEVER insinuate you were anything BUT someone who was both magnanimous and magnificent.

    Also, I would have you know that I now have an image of Vanus Galerion stuck in my head, his usual mages robes now replace with a provocative and sensual (but still tasteful) tavern dress, flashing a bit of skin as he angrily shouts at the patrons "DO YOU WANT MORE BEER? THE GREAT MAGE HAS ASKED YOU A QUESTION."

    So thank you for this.

    Exceptions for Sanguine.

    If a mortal asked Sanguine "hey can we have funtimes together?", I HIGHLY doubt he'd say no. I think it would go against his very nature LOL.

    Gold Coast has the same limitations as Fargrave: it's not part of the base game. So any new content tied to these zones would have to have some access modifications. It would seem odd to have to purchase Necrom + the new DLC to get access to the new content.... especially if there's a new "system" involved.

    Nah not multiverse, dragonbreak, kinda like multiverse but it is where time itself breaks and all things and all possibilities happen at the same time over the dragonbreak and then once it is over all the "threads" of the possibilities all kinda slam back into each other and try to work together with Jills (Female dragons) fixing time and throwing out the timelines/possibilities that cannot mesh in the fixed timeline.

    I think he just means the overland access to the area if you decide to hoof it. Like walking from Eastmarch to Western Skyrim by taking Blackreach.

    That said, it is reasonably possible they could add Gold Coast, Hews Bane and Wrothgar to the base game like they did Morrowind. They are quite old now, and it would be an interesting announcement to make just before an event that host those 3 areas.

    There is definitely room between Cyrodiil and Gold Coast such that they would not have to make Gold Coast part of the base game. From Gold Coast, they can bar the door for anyone who does not have the new Chapter, and from the new Chapter, they can bar the door for anyone who doesn't have Gold Coast. Access can easily be provided by some boat that bypasses the Gold Coast, if not using wayshrines.

    You're probably right. Considering he's the Daedric Prince of "Lust, Perversity, and Unnatural Relations", I'm sure he'll have "funtimes" will everyone and everything, including all kind of absurd and disgusting creatures - even humans!

    Oh, and it's probably better to leave his parties before drinking and dancing turns to flesh-sculpting and gut-gardening... I'm not sure if he'd allow you to leave, though. Seeing a watchling is much safer for sure!

    What do you mean - "Too many tentacles"? Have you ever thought about the back massages you could get?!

    As I wrote before, Hermaeus Mora might not be interested in romancing a mortal, though - but if I compare watchlings to Naryu, it's still obvious that a watchling would be the much better choice. You could discuss books with them, go to the theatre and watch a play, they have a higher intelligence than Naryu and I'm certain that they can also dance better! You'll never have to have discussions about what to have for dinner, as they have no mouth. They are for sure more attentive than Naryu, and they also had a better fashion sense - if they'd wear any clothes. Also, they probably smell better.

    After looking into various maps of Cyrodiil from the other games and comparing them to ESO's maps, it seems to me that depending on exactly how far the new expansion extends into the West Weald, we could be seeing an entrance to the new zone from the top of Reaper's March from Arenthia, which seems to back onto the West Weald if I'm not mistaken. There is a gate up there already which is unused, between Moon Hunter Keep and Strident Springs Demesne. Skingrad is after all central within the West Weald. (Not sure if anyone already pointed out the Arenthia entrance or not)

    I've spend a ludicrous amount of time over the years trying to bounce off rocks and up over the Varen's Wall Gate.

    The face in the shattered glass is interesting. All I can think to do is flaunt the IA bodymarking and go tilt at the gate in Hew's Bane some more.
