Hermaeus Mora's Tome of Inexplicable Knowledge.

In your exploration of Tamriel, you find a very rare artifact: Hermaeus Mora's Tome of Inexplicable Knowledge. What does it do? Well I will tell you, dear reader!

It presents you with a choice: Ignore the tome and proceed normally OR sacrifice your second skill bar and the ability to weapon swap in exchange for the ability to choose ANY five skills and any one Ult, from any class skill line. Passives are not affected. You have to only use these six skills for the duration of the effect, which is.... Oh let's say one week.

So only one bar with any five skills and any one Ult at the expense of weapon swapping and an extra bar.

Do you do it? If so, what six skills do you choose?

    I can't argue with that.

    I would give it back to my lord and savior Hermaeus Mora and hope he doesn't kill me.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    He won't kill you. He needs to chronicle your actions while under the enchantment of his insidious tome. It's just research. You know how it goes with scholarly types.

    He often kills his servants once they are not useful anymore. But if that's what he wants, I'll do it.

    I'll show him I'm useful. I'll bring him books. He likes books. I'll bring him more. If he tells me to read books, I read books.

    I would rather have a tome that gives new abilities like tentacle magic! Summoning a seeker as well!
    That would be a cool summon!
