    Khajiit she recalls them as crows rather than ravens and they relate to the storyline for that area.

    However this one thinks you may have a point in the name Evermore ...

    It is a reference to the CROW MOTHER who is leading the CROWS how you got Poe from that is foolish and beyond me. Alfred Hitchcock would have been a more relevant reference but still wrong.

    I hope you're right, I love stuff like that. I never saw the connection, if it's really an allusion to Poe it got lost in translation. :)

    Me too!
    Like I said I did not catch the reference the fist time I did the quest....and I might be giving the developer too much credit....although in WOW there was lots of hidden stuff like this

    I once had to write a short essay about "The Raven" as part of a test in highschool. It was a yes or no question that also asked for an explanation. I simply wrote "Quoth (my name), nevermore." and got full credit. Apparently some teachers out there do have a sense of humor.

    Uh, Zenimax is located in Hunt Valley, Maryland near the old Microprose offices...not far from Baltimore....not far from Poe country.

    OF COURSE Evermore is a Poe reference! :p

    Quoth the Raven, Not a crow. Besides Evermore is in reach country and the Reachmen revere Hag Ravens so having a quest with crows in a city that was conceived back in E.S. Arena in a game where talking crows are in a few areas is a coincidence. Name one thing in the poem that relates to the quest.

    Yes, the quest is a play on Poe. Raven vs crow aside. There are other talking crows in the game but the city of Evermore got a whole quest line based on it for a reason.

    Definitely an Easter Egg, didn't the Raven say Nevermore? and the town is called Evermore, good catch.

    Yes because the reason is it is under siege by Reachmen led by a Hag Raven in a region that has a history of raids by Reachmen and Hag Ravens. I still say you guys are reaching man.

    Terrible response. Alfred Hitchcock would NOT be more relevant. Zos is located smack dab in the middle of Baltimore Ravens country. Most people can't tell a difference between a crow and a raven. I would bet the crow questline in Evermore is a direct Edgar Allen Poe reference.
