    this is a serious lore question btw - we see ruins called Sun-Scale Xanmeer so is there a Sun-Scale organization?
    Is it still around maybe more in service in the heart of Black Marsh

    A Shadow Scale / Sun Scale duality could have existed in the Xanmeer period. The twin temples of Xul Thuxis and Vakka Bok have a similar opposed duality. I can't think of anything like that existing in 2E 582 though, apart from the name Sunscale Strand in Shadow Fen.

    Most likely not, but it would be grand if that were such a case. It's always fun when everything has an antithesis. What would they even be?

    I'm not well-versed in Argonian lore, but did they ever worship a sun deity? Or perhaps it's like with other bits of Tamriel, in which it's much like the Eight or "Good" Daedra, but with Jel-ified names and all that.

    Perhaps in a future game, or even future DLC. I feel like, while we may have a decent chunk of Argonian lore at the moment, we still have a lot more to discover (or for the developers/lore masters, write and create).

    Sunscale argonians would make pretty much sense, considering reptiles should appreciate the Sun to warm their cold-blooded body, and to nourish the plants (so their Hist symbiotes).

    Moreover this would explain Argonian Templar player-characters...
    I'm not a specialist of argonian lore but I have no example of templar argonian NPC yet. Have you?
    It's a shame the former loremaster discarded my question about light and sun beliefs among Argonians, at the Murkmire lore Q&A session :/

    I guess they have written nothing about this yet, even if it seems so cool an idea.
