The Orrery seen in Oblivion is said in the PGE3 to be made of actual stuff from the plane(t)s, so I think they're probably actual stuff.

There's also this idea of Kynareth being a very, very windy plane(t) that's popular enough to have shown up in KINMUNE and things.

Mannimarco became a plane(t) because that was his chosen method of apotheosis during the dragon break, methinks. Talos didn't need to get one because he cheated with his simultaneous dragon break/soul combining/enantiomorph/mantling/incarnation/CHIM.

"Summer on Arkay" would be an amusing ingame science fiction essay.

Possibly about a space-faring Imperial and his khajiit sidekick.

Wasn't there a pirate that once threatened a god by farting or something? It could be about him.

that's an in-game book in Dragonborn :P

Cyrus the Restless threatened Vivec by putting on a certain stance.

Tiber had to retroactively change the fact that Cyrus didn't just put on the stance but also actually destroyed the remainder of Yokuda and a good chunk of Tamriel just because he held a grudge.

Or maybe you're talking about Mora or something. Herma-Mora is really popular among sailors for some reason, hehe.

Clearly there needs to be a ES game set in space.
Its just required at this point.

7/10 Has much more memorable sigs but casts them to the realm of sigtexts.

Indeed, I do this.

I thought the battlespire was embedded somewhere between the Hunting grounds and the Deadlands?

The manual for the game implies it exists in some kind of halfway dimension between the two.

Speaking of battlespire, why'd the empire bother to get rid of all the daedric crescents?

Speaking of the empire, why do they deal with daedra at all?

Why wouldn't they? There's a lot of advantages to that. You summon a Dremora, tell him (All the female ones are high ranked AFAIK) to deliver a letter or whatever for you, he'll do it.

That's not the fault of the Dremora or Xivilai or anything, that's the fault of Dagon himself.

And Camoran.

And Jagar Tharn.

And besides, Dagon's basically the personification of ambition and change and various related things. He's just doing what comes naturally.

...TES is pretty grey-and-grey morality now that I think about it.
