So where's Artaeum located?

Menelaos · May 2018

Hi folks,
I am still marvelling at the beauty of the island of Artaeum. Although we are not to know where it exactly lies, there are some signs and landmarks that lure into interpretating its location. For instance, we have a coastline, three moons/planets and multiple triangular asterisms in the sky. Somehow I am inclined to think it's been removed to Aetherius or one of the demi- or pocket-planes 'between' Mundus and Aetherius.

So has anybody any theory as to where (or even when) Artaeum is?

Its probably in Aetherius or even on another planet in the Mundus entirely could even be in a different time being teleported into the past or future since The Order can manipulate time but more than likely its in its own pocket plane sort of like Clockwork City I guess all we do know is its not on Nirn which is the planet the The Elder Scrolls takes place on

The sun sure looks a bit like the EVE Gate

You can see it on The Aurbis map in Locations, in the same type of set apart areas,as Clockwork City and Coldharbor.

Only the psyjiics know. And they might not even really know

The island's off the coast of Narnia.

As far as I know they moved the Island to it's own pocket plane outside Nirn and the Mundus.

Just like how Sheogorath took Eyevea from Nirn.

Do you mean right now? Because it's moveable. Where it appears in-game is just where it was parked at the time.

Perhaps it's also capable of being multiple places at once - one huge portal, in effect.

Its in one place and many places. Its like a giant sphere of distorted time. Its obvious that it can move on its own since we suddenly gained access to it. My theory is that arteum so on the inside it looks like time moves but on the outside time stands still. This would explain its sudden reappearance. If it had a movement pattern we would have been able to travel there much earlier on

That's an idea ! the skybox reminded me the first psijic skill with a sphere space where time is locked / slowed. So maybe they put themselves "into stasis" to "jump forward" to our time.

But this won't explain why the characters are speaking as if they "spent a long time out of Nirn"... Maybe adjusting their speech for not blowing our fragile minds?

My guess, would be somewhere in the mundus, as saw a number of planets on either side of the sky and just assumed that. Hey could be wrong.

Set apart from Nirn, floating in its own area between the planets/gods.
