Where Has Lore Master Lawrence Gone!?!?!?!?

So were approaching the 1 year anniversary of Orsinium and one thing I will always remember, in addition to the great content, was the excellent Orc lore history painted by the one, the only, Lore Master Lawrence. I may have missed something, but I don't remember seeing the Great Lore Master providing the lore education / entertainment we all need during Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, or Shadows of the Hist launch. So where has Lore Master Lawrence gone? Is he hard at work on Elder Scrolls VI? Does he secretly hold the solution to PvP balance and is being held in an undisclosed location by @ZOS_BrianWheeler and @Wrobel ? Did he give @ZOS_RichLambert a pair of pants for Christmas and was promptly fired?

Seriously though, where has he gone? I miss the ol' Lore Master.

    Never ever try to give Rich a pair of pants.

    There's literally no point. Really.

    Nowhere, most likely. He's probably just working on upcoming content which he can't talk about. I'm sure we'll be seeing him around when the Vvardenfell DLC is released. It's not like this is the first time he's been "invisible", and he did post a comment on /r/elderscrollsonline as recently as a month ago. Don't you worry, he'll bring new lore to us soon enough.

    I actually had this thought when I wrote the post. I was like "maybe he's doing his own version of ESO Trip of a Lifetime to generate new lore concepts".

    @Lawrence_Schick is terrified of me and therefore avoids the forums. It is for this reason that I tag him more than any other Zenimax employee: it is impossible to annoy someone who is not there, therefore I can spam him with tag Notifications as much as I want. MWAHAHAHA!

    *ahem*

    I would, however, also like to see the return of the Loremaster, the '...Answers Your Questions' segments, and more lore-related things in general (I never did find out if the Thief liked the cookies my main has been making her... :o )

    @ZOS_GinaBruno , would you kindly pass on to the Loremaster that I promise not to eat him if he will come back bearing lore?

    He's probably busy writing lore and stuff for new DLC zones, right @ZOS_GinaBruno?

    I'm glad to see Lawrence is still around. I hope hes got some interesting lore ideas cooking. As someone who wasn't huge into ESO lore, the two lore books he wrote (i believe) has really ampt up my enjoyment of the game.

    So you are imp-lore-ing them to share a candidate pic showing him alive and well? Send Gina with her phone to whichever f-lore he works on to get quick snap.

      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.
