      My favorite Skyrim song is Far Horizons because it always plays whenever I come back to Dragonsreach and see all the orphans I adopted as they call out “Papa!” to me. (I have a mod that allows me to adopt multiple orphans.) That’s why Far Horizons always melts my heart because it is a song that evokes nostalgic feelings of returning home and being welcomed as a father by your children.

    Not many people know this, but the dulcimer were a race of elves sometimes called “sweet elves”. They were known for being neighborly and great bakers, but were wiped out near the end of the second era by orsimer, who only ate meat and distrusted the dulcimer, believing them to be two-faced manipulators. Few accounts survive of this, the smallest of mer races

      I heard that they've been on the rise as of late. Much like the Falmer, in a sense. They disappeared, but were never truly gone. Unlike their icy brothers, however, the Dulcimer are supposedly still, without a doubt, Mer.

      @@KingPhilipsRideshare I remember the exact moment hanging around Whiterun around age 21, when Skyrim and all other games lost their magic and I couldn't lose myself into them like I could before. It was like the moment when you're 7-9 and the cool cars and dinosaurs and other toys just turn to pieces of plastic in your hand, never speaking to you again. I've been chasing that feeling I lost that day for 12 years, trying a lot of drugs to enhance the immersion, but nothing. And now for the first time in my life this year, I haven't gamed much at all.

My mom always told me since I was young “life is mostly boring and the sooner you get used to that the easier it is” I didn’t play anything but Smash rarely until my oldest child started to game. Now the magic is back. It’s not a magic that left us. It can’t come with us! It belongs to children. We should be able to grow up and enjoy what we had but this world has us trained to desire desire. I’ve learn that we will never be fulfilled by chasing those memories. You have to make new ones, sharing your time with others. There is no going back

    I will never forget. 12 year old me sitting up at 12am on a school night. After having just gotten skyrim for the xbox 360 for my birthday. A cold winter night. Wrapped in a blanket. Walking around the night time tundra of skyrim. The northern lights in full bloom, the howl of the wind, and then stumbling upon winter hold. Truly a magical experience I wish I could have for the first time again. I will ALWAYS. Love skyrim and her people. From the fair haired nords. To the argonian dock workers. This world is a place many could only dream of. And I would happily call it home. Despite its many dangers.

    This song is my top 3 of all time fantasy songs. It was meant to be played on a dulcimer, nothing else.
    Side note: it wouldn’t hurt to put an add-on to this song. Like an extra verse - an extended version - a new version. Just to add to the pleasure of listening and dreaming

      Dulcimers are still used somewhat in contemporary music, although they are more often the variant found in the US, the so called Appalachian dulcimer
      The Rolling Stones used it wonderfully back in their day recommend listening to _I am waiting_ or _Lady Jane_ and you'll hear it nicely
