Funfact: The audio for this video took multiple attempts because I have crickets who kept chirping loudly, ruining the audio. ( I have a pet tarantula that eats crickets). Anyway, my tarantula was refusing to eat the cricket that I kindly placed in her terrarium, I believe she wasn't hungry at the time. So this cricket was just in her terrarium chirping away and recording audio was quite difficult lol, even post editing the audio with noise remover was not shutting this cricket the fuCK up so what ended up happening was me opening her terrarium, finding the culprit, and performing a blood eagle execution on it. (a bit exaggerated) But anyway folks thanks for coming to my TED Talk and I hope you all have a blessed day!
After perusing the lexicon of eldritch knowledge that is Lady of Scrolls' channel I believe I've unearthed her origins and can provide an equation explaining such: Meridia + Hermaeus Mora + a Moth Priest + smol edgy Elf girl = Lady of Scrolls.
I'm thinking about creating an Assassin roleplay guild in ESO that was once part of the Thieves guild but splitted up from them. Though, they still worship Nocturnal. So this Video is perfect for me. Thanks.
This is absolutely amazing content, your voice is very calming and well appreciated during stressful times, thank you for this i will be watching the rest of the lore videos.
Thank you very much for all of these lore videos! I just found your channel and you are certainly my new favorite to watch for lore. Your writing is articulate and detailed which sparks intrigue to all of us while watching; thank you!
Iachesis, pronounced Iakesis. Loremaster Lawrence explained last year that in the ancient elven tongue there were no soft C's. So C was always spoken like a K.
Megatto thanks! I actually had no idea about that! I will definitely keep it in mind for future elven words, I knew chimer and chim were pronounced with a hard C, I think I just thought “IaCHEEsis” sounded better I suppose lol, but thanks so much! I will definitely remember that for future videos!
I appreciate that you take the time to list the sources of your art when they show up. It takes a lot of time, I imagine, and many people don't do it. Are you Dutch, by the way?
Thanks! I make sure to reverse search each image I find, some images are incredibly hard to find sometimes because the artist no longer has a page or they are very hidden from Google for some reason, I make it that if I cannot find the artist, I do not utilize the image. It certainly helps out artists when they are sourced in any way possible. And I am actually American! :D
In the opening quote there is the concept of a "labyrinthine philosophy". I have read that in only one other place. The philosopher Nietzsche used the word labyrinthine to describe what is today called the Assassins Creed.
Beautiful haunting sick picture's be they way I enjoyed watching this video My number 1 favorite and only favorite Daedric prince Of Night and shadow i can;t wait to see more video's on The Elder Scrolls lore.
I too like Meridias sphere, however I have a hard time forgiving her because the aided the Aylid elves during the slave rebellion. She supplied them with her Arouan nights, and guaranteed Umiril the unfethered rebirth in the colored rooms
Don't know whether you were already planning this, but I would love to see you make a video on the Bretons. It really made me happy to hear it is your favourite race as well!
Lady of Scrolls, the Tenth Divine, Beloved of man & mer.. Her Highness of Lore.. Beyond the darkness of Murkwood.. deep in the bowels of Red Mountain.. to the heights at the Throat of the World.. Tamriel sings your praise!
I'm just curious about one thing - if the Skeleton key needs to remain at the Temple, and if it's removed it will cut off the Thieves guild luck and cause other bad things, why is it a Daedric Artefact that Nocturnal herself awards the player in Elder Scrolls 4? Edit: nvm
Have you ever noticed that in some ways Nocturnal looks prettier than on others? Like the statue looks prettier than she ACTUALLY does when you meet her. It might just be me, but that is how I feel.
Hey this has nothing to do with this video but yo I'm playing Oblivion for the first time. Anyone seeing this comment what should I do that isn't the questlines? Gotta get the full experience.
Reveticate Oblivion is probably my favorite of the elder scrolls games! As far as things to do...hmmmm...my favorite thing to do is leveling up my alchemy and mercantile skill really fast, there’s a lot of farms around Cyrodiil that have a lot of ingredients and food at them, if you go through and pick them all and just make a TON of stamina potions, you can level up really fast, I then go to the alchemy shops, ones in Skingrad and one is in the Imperial City, I sell all the potions I made as well as buy their entire inventory of ingredients and then sell them the potions I make with those. That’s just my favorite way to level up fast :D Another thing to do is maybe just grinding Oblivion gates, one thing I like to do is get the Grey Cowl and go in an Oblivion Gate, collect as much loot and weapons and stuff as I can, then go sell it all after a huge haul to make a lot of money. There’s also plenty of glitches where you can duplicate items, I once filled my house in Skingrad with watermelons after duplicating them so many times. 😄
@@ladyofscrolls4598 Awesome! So alchemy is a good thing to get into then. I usually don't mess with the alchemy in tes games so I'll make sure to do that. Thanks!
Isn't it interesting how all it takes is a skanky outfit and suddenly that character is considered "hot?" Just saying. Nobody knows what Meridia looks like under the robe. And some people who need therapy like Molag Bal.
@liamodahl1205 There's more to being hot than just a "skanky outfit". Nocturnal's allure comes more from her mystique and philosophy than her cleavage. Same with Mephala. Meridia is pretty to look at but gives off cranky old church lady vibes, and (unpopular opinion) Azura is just too damn full of herself to be hot, even with the outfit.
I strongly consider ESO Clockwork City and Summerset to be a deviation of her true character to the point where it should be declared non-canonical. The way Zenimax handled her character infuriated me. Throughout the Elder Scrolls series, Nocturnal has always been depicted as a chaotic neutral type who can never be truly defined as either being good or evil. She's always been content to just chill in the shadows and let mortals come to her, smiting those who make an enemy of her and rewarding those who serve her, never something outright aggressive, violent or invasive like how she was in those expansions. She should have been swapped out with another Prince as a villain. Those actions would have better suited Daedric Princes that have been known to desire dominion and control such as Vaermina or Meridia.
Joy Gill daedric princes are godlike spirits that don’t technically have a gender/don’t consider gender relevant. They can manifest as either male or female, but “prince” is just the catch all term to describe a greater daedra
well ... as much as I like elder scrolls... anyone else noticed that you can become the champion of all daedra but can't go for a evil ending. I mean it doesn't have to be a Canon thing but Bethesda always claims freedom of choice. but you never actually can accept a quest and then disadvantage the quest giver for the giggles.
I personally would have used a different song for the background, that particular song from bloodborne is a bit too intense for Nocturnal. I personally would have rocked the "Girl of Sadness - Spooky" stock audio from AudioMicro (Vaatividya uses it in some of his bloodborne lore videos). Otherwise good video

Your post is rollercoaster.
It’s funnier when you realize crickets do that to find mates.
You got sum horny cricket bois

Gaming Pessimist accurate lol
@@ladyofscrolls4598 I'm glad my findings have been validated. Lol
Nocturnal is one of my favourite Princes in Elder Scrolls :) So glad to see more information about her
Whenever I think about Nocturnal, the X files theme plays in my head lol it fits so well with her
Whenever I think about the X Files theme, the Dr Who theme plays in my mind for a couple of seconds before I can draw back the actual theme
You wear the shadows well, fellow thief.
I just woke up and this was a pleasant suprise!
Praise be Nocturnal, thank you for making thia video. Excellent work as ever.
May shadows hide you
I correct myself, lady nocturnal does not ask for veneration, mearly a contract.
Pls keep those assassins away from me!
sithis take you
haha na im just playin ya im jus razzlin ya haha dumb stupid

I A M F I N E a ver happy birthday to you!! 🎂 🎁 🥳
@@ladyofscrolls4598 Thank you so much!!!
Joyous wexit anniversary!
FINALLY some love to my girl Nocturnal! Thanks for the video!
Recovering from a gym injury, and am highly depressed because I can’t lift or work. Thanks for the lore mom!!!
Loved this so much! Great work! You have a great voice and are so skilled.
I'm thinking about creating an Assassin roleplay guild in ESO that was once part of the Thieves guild but splitted up from them. Though, they still worship Nocturnal. So this Video is perfect for me. Thanks.
Best TED talk I’ve ever attended
You DiD my girl justice, Lady. Seriously, keep up the great work! :D One of my favorite Elder Scrolls lore channel now!
This is absolutely amazing content, your voice is very calming and well appreciated during stressful times, thank you for this i will be watching the rest of the lore videos.
We have waited patiently in the shadows, silently wondering when and what you're next masterpiece would be. And you my Lady...did not dissapoint.
So the Night Mistress already has you settled in the Evergloam? :) Lucky you.
Your intro music is always so awesome and it fits in the theme of the video perfectly
I just love everything about this channel ❤️👍
My favorite character in the mythos, you did an amazing job!
My favorite Daedric Prince! awesome vid as always :)
Life been crazy lately. its so nice to hear about something else. thank you for the upload, your channel is incredibly underrated! good work btw!

Nice bloodbourne music. Beautiful and haunting.
Another gem, good treatise Fair Lady.

Very interesting video, keep up the great work.
Loving the videos and the music from Bloodborne. 10/10 keep creating amazing videos!

Your soul becomes one with the shadows that envelopes the world around you. That's poetic asf, and the main reason I gave her my soul.
We gonna see Meridia soon? She’s one of the only worth of worship tbh (other than Malacath and Azura)
I too like Meridias sphere, however I have a hard time forgiving her because the aided the Aylid elves during the slave rebellion. She supplied them with her Arouan nights, and guaranteed Umiril the unfethered rebirth in the colored rooms
@@XJonAye thats because the ayelids asked for help
@@XJonAye Fr, makes you think
My favourite! Thieves guild is always the first one I invest in if I can find it, so maybe it's natural it became that way...
Don't know whether you were already planning this, but I would love to see you make a video on the Bretons. It really made me happy to hear it is your favourite race as well!
Your job is so good, thank you!
You go girl, keep making these vids 👌
Beautiful voice, and lore video. Thank you
Hello, fellow Nightingales.
Azura being Nocturnal's LITERAL sister would make sense. Two sisters one of good, one of evil yadda yadda yadda. It just makes sense to me.
Nocturnal is not evil
Shadows hide you. My favorite Daedric Prince.
I dont know why, but in any rpg i just cant help but always pick the rogue or thief class whenever available
Bloodborne music at the beginning, love it :)
Lady of Scrolls, the Tenth Divine,
Beloved of man & mer..
Her Highness of Lore..
Beyond the darkness of Murkwood..
deep in the bowels of Red Mountain..
to the heights at the Throat of the World..
Tamriel sings your praise!
"After the key mysteriously teleports, it hides itself in incredibly difficult and inaccessible places."
It's hiding in *qasmoke.*
Nocturnal is my fav 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Let’s be honest, none of us EVER completed the thieves guild quest just to keep that damn key
very well done, much respect
What does "Shadow Hide Ou" mean again??
The last dragon born literally joined every guild and basically set himself up to become the new emperor by assassinting the old one lol.
One of my top 5 favorite deadric princes
All my fellow Nightingales. Rise and pledge. Shadows preserve you.
I'm just curious about one thing - if the Skeleton key needs to remain at the Temple, and if it's removed it will cut off the Thieves guild luck and cause other bad things, why is it a Daedric Artefact that Nocturnal herself awards the player in Elder Scrolls 4?
Edit: nvm
Can you do Mephala ?
Can you do the wolf queen potema next
Hey I need to ask.
When you do a video on Molag Bal, will you mention the..... “questionable” things that happened with Vivec?
Have you ever noticed that in some ways Nocturnal looks prettier than on others? Like the statue looks prettier than she ACTUALLY does when you meet her. It might just be me, but that is how I feel.
0:01 bloodborne flashback.
Covid-era Update: black forest in eso has a shrine to nocturnal and a young acolyte who takes care of it

Nocturnal, the hottest Daedric prince ever.
You mispelt Azura.
Isn't it interesting how all it takes is a skanky outfit and suddenly that character is considered "hot?"
Just saying. Nobody knows what Meridia looks like under the robe. And some people who need therapy like Molag Bal.

Bro she has a potato for a face
You should check out this Skyrim mod called Requiem. There's a mod for that mod called AZ Tweaks.
maybe the "Y" was left out as a hint towards the obscuring nature
The Early Scrolls
Great video
Where's House of Earthly Delights pls.
nice vid gonna sub :)
The intro music all I can say is Bloodborne ;D
Do Akatosh next
Azura is Nocturnal's lover actually.
Sweet

ALL HAIL NOCTURNAL

Makes you wonder if she wasn't the wife of sithis
Noice. My second option after Dagon
welp, time to make a new character.
Lose something did we? 🗝
Bloodborne Theme :)
nocturnal is my kind of goddess, never asking to be worship unlike other gods in this world
Why is Nocturnal considered a "Prince" and not a Goddess , female /male?
Joy Gill daedric princes are godlike spirits that don’t technically have a gender/don’t consider gender relevant. They can manifest as either male or female, but “prince” is just the catch all term to describe a greater daedra
Yeah pretty much, Molag Bal even has been female in some descriptions
When are u going to do more videos on the aedra
Blood-O Bourne-O
Nocturnal, shit. Mabye I should give back her key.
I wear the nightangal armor and pretend I’m bat man.
I wear her outfit in ESO and refuse any other costume.
2:22 good boys
Thumbs up for the bloodborne music😁❤
