    The Elder Scrolls - All songs with the "Nerevar Rising" Leitmotif. The title says "theme" instead of leitmotif because TH-cam won't allow over 100 characters in a title. The video contains songs from Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, and Elder Scrolls Online.
    I really hope Jeremy Soule returns for Elder Scrolls VI because it's currently looking like that won't happen, according to Soule. The Elder Scrolls Blades Theme sounds like it was composed by Ion Zur, so Bethesda have probably hired him to all of their music since he works on the Fallout Series, too. Although Zur is great, The Blades Theme is nowhere near as great as the other Elder Scrolls music.

    Excellent. As always. It’s really cool to see how many times this piece is reprised in the Elder Scrolls. They better get Jeremy Soule to compose The Elder Scrolls: VI’s Soundtrack. He’s literally the ‘Soule’ of the Elder Scrolls!

      I'm kinda happy zur's doing the soundtrack. not that soule makes bad music, quite the opposite, but evidence points to elder scrolls 6 being set in hammerfell or elsewyr, and inon zur's past work can really capture the feel of those areas I think. just look at the fallout soundtracks.

    It's worth mentioning that the main 3 rising notes motif is also the foundation of many other tracks. For example, the climax of both Far Horizons and Unbroken Road use a theme derived from this very motif.

    It's interesting how the Morrowind theme became *the* leitmotif for the franchise, three games in.
    Kind of like how "Ezio's Family" from Assassin's Creed 2 became the main theme for that franchise.

    Surely there's more in Skyrim with that leitmotif, right? I mean I guess those ones are based on Dragonborn as well.
    But hey, Unbroken Road shared a leitmotif with Reign of the Septims. So that's fun.

    It's a shame that you aren't too popular.
    This is actually referring to Bethesda's greatest lore hints and leak;
    It essentially is telling you that, everything connects to the lore based around Indoril Nerevar, and that it is the most important peice of the game;
    And it's a missing peice. If you know the lore on Nerevar, the Fallen God Akhulakhan, and The Disppearence of the Dwarves - You will realize that Bethesda's end game content revolves around the return of an honest King and an unstoppable Warrior; Indoril Saint Nerevar.
    Remember; The Nerevarine is a prophecised being, and Indoril Nerevar, is the one and only true man who ever existed.
    The Nerevarine is a title; given to *YOU* or another. The prophecy is right. But it's being misread.
