And here I was wondering what to watch, when suddenly an Oblivion portal opened up before me and out walked a Drewmora with more occult knowledge to share.
I can't stop feeling heartwarmed when Drew drops a video a Sunday or Saturday outta nowhere, but even more when one's lenght such as this. I hope we get all Oblivion planes and a couple more in TES 6. Thank you man for what you do, you do so graciously. Good vibes from Uru, no weed and coffee anymore... just decaf
Please never stop making these. I absolutely love lore in TES but due to my ADHD I can find it hard to absorb it all whilst I'm playing. So having content creators like yourself literally means the mundus to me ❤
Meridia's flaw isn't just about style over substance, but also an obsession with purity. She laments the inconstancy of her mortal followers, and seeks to purge any corruption anywhere at all. Those mortals who serve her will inevitably discover that anything spawned by the Gray Maybe are far too checkered for her liking, and when she is finished dealing with greater evils, she will turn on the lesser ones, including those she sees within her allies who fall short of her ever-narrowing standards.
I have never believed that the Shivering Isles is a realm one travels to but rather a place that visits you as you descend deeper and deeper into madness. The mind of one who makes the journey is encapsulated by the Isles, which is why it’s shaped like a brain, it’s your own mind, then the journey to new Sheo is as easy as a stroll into your own deranged thoughts. Why Uncle Sheo says he is a part of you is because his realm occupies the boundaries of the minds he has ensnared.
Honestly have loved your vids since FudgeMuppet, there's something about your voice and elder scrolls that just calm me to the core no matter how stressed or panicked I am seriously thankyou your videos have been a life changer for my anxiety ❤
Drewmora the storyteller is deadric prince that manifests as a druid or scholar and makes the soul of the person hear his stories travel inside his realm the endless book of lore. I always love your videos it makes me feel good travel to the elder scrolls world and feel creative to draw more .
Very nice. Very good topic to explore. For even us traveled Loremasters it can be complicated to explain the nature of Planes without delving into Dawn Era madness. Thank you, Drew the Daedrologist!
You are by and large my favorite elder scrolls channel. Your videos always feel like sitting down with a scholar as he discusses his findings and theories as he might to a bright student he feels can comprehend the subject.
I've downloaded all Drewmoras elder scrolls videos so I can listen to them at work. I'm a landscaper and when I'm out working in the gardens, drewmoras voice and storytelling fits perfectly. Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to make these. I'd love to hear a dramatic telling of some tes stories. Beggar thief warrior king or 2920 for example, just my thought.
By the Nine, what a masterful script! Drew, you are my hero. A true story teller, a gentleman and a scholar. True master of your craft. I listen in awe, each and every release you do.
The thing with the guy looking fof traitors, then get frustrated and kill himself, only to discover thst HE was the traitor since he killed himself... I busted out laughing tbh. That level of paradoxical absurdity is not only hilarious, but REALLY fitting for Sheogorath's realm too.
It’s a bummer how incomplete Moras realm felt in Skyrim. The Shivering Isles was so fleshed out, Dragonborn was like 1 step above call of duty in its linear style.
Makes sense when the Shivering Isles also serves as the main world to play in, whereas in Dragonborn it's Solstheim, not Apocrypha. Would've been cool, sure, but double the work. I also think being vague and mysterious fits the realm perfectly. Being able to explore a fleshed out Apocrypha would've likely diminished that mystery factor.
@@LucaDavoli_ good point, somehow I never factored Solstheim being apart of the DLC until you said that. It get smaller than Morrowind and maybe that’s because you’d die easily but Skyrims was way more fleshed out in my opinion.
I'm always so happy when a TES lore video drops from Drew. I know that it means that I'll have a much needed reprieve from the anxiety, terror, and overall malaise I feel as I mindlessly work at my data entry job. Instead of being overworked and burnt out and sad, I know I'll be engaged in something special and it'll be a pleasant jaunt through one of my favorite worlds told by someone thorough, creative, and in possession of a strange feeling of care and gentleness that I cannot explain but FEEL in his voice. Idk man. I just love it, and am grateful for these videos. Thank you so much for sharing your interests and talents with us. 💜
2:50: "We have a tendency to plunge into the stinking depths of elder scrolls lore. Sometimes, the only way to process these topics is to have a long introspective shower and think about what we've done."
Dude... not even remotely joking when i tell you that as i was listening to you read the excerpt from "Exegesis of Merid-Nunda" I stumbled across that exact book laying on the ground outside a run-down shack while exploring Coldharbour in ESO. Hoping that was just a massive coincidence and not Molag Bal having a laugh before he confiscates my soul.
Amazing Video!!! Maybe a weird request: could you maybe do a Video about resurrection in the Elder Scrolls? Because it feels like something that works in TES, but seamingly isn't a part of it. Most prominently, Alduin brings the dead Dragons back to live, and while I previously thought, that it makes sense, since TES Dragons are beings outside of time, I recently watched a Video on the shout He uses, that apparently just turns time back, so it _could_ work on other species (provided you have a perfect understanding of time and death, like Alduin has)? Some of the daedra, especially Molag Bal, seem to love bringing people back, either as living or undead. Individuals like Wulfharth and the Nerevarine apparently were brought back several times. In early Lore, priests in temples could apparently resurrect dead people, and it seems there is at least one case in the current Lore, where a priest resurrected a dead Boy. And hagravens can apparently also resurrect the reachfolk, though I read somewhere, that their resurrection spell is an instant version of the briarheart ritual? And then I recently found the Song "Pray to the Hunter", where in its music video, it seems like the man is resurrected at the end. And from what little I was able to find, it seems like the Song is canon?
The Hill of Suicides isn't just punishment, i don't think, it's also Sheogorath's twisted mercy: his manic side may well truly believe he is happy, that in his dual madness he has overcome depression, sadness and defeatism and that those held upon the Hill are granted the same blessing he recieved to fully give themselves into depression and commit the ultimate madness of ending their own lives, but keep existing in this mad realm Of course his demented side holds there those who shun his gift of depression and would instead take their lifes than live with it, a grudge which the Mad God cannot let go Or maybe i'm completely wrong, and Sheogorath simply does as he does for reasons to which only himself is privy, or no reason at all
Always a pleasure to see and listen to one of your stories! Am I hearing another fan influence correctly in the re-rendition of the Peace of Akatosh at the start of the video?
At 12:14 I noticed something that might have huge lore implications. "...[Oblivion's] quarters are the most mapped and charted of all the outer realms..." So, Oblivion is but one of the outer realms? I mean I guess there's Aetherius too but... That seems to imply there are more?
Top notch vid as always. Glad you're still pumping out Elder Scrolls content! Was wondering if you could say where some of the shots were from i.e. the desert with the hourglass and dragon, Meridia's coloured rooms and the morrowind-like area with the cool sky box in the jntro. Are they from mods or places in ESO?
On another note, Drew, considering everything we know about Meridia, the Maga-Ge and Aedra, and all the different interpretations, do you think it's possible for Meridia to be redeemed in the eyes of the Aedra? If she has an overall positive effect on Tamriel, helping our heroes and fighting other daedra, could it possibly make up for her past actions, and maybe even be allowed to return to Athereius one day? I think of the conclusion of the Companion's questline where Kodlak says perhaps the heroes of Sovngarde can rescue the other werewolf harbingers from oblivion in the 'Harrowing of the Hunting Grounds' and return to Sovngarde. If Mortals can be redeemed this way, can former Magna-Ge?
Talking about kalpas for another video. Would be cool if it had a redgaurd vibe, I like how they put it with satakal and the world skin. Really ouroboros especially with all the dragon time God also combining lorkhan.
Just FYI Dimension is anything you can set to a variable. Also you can think of math as having a lot of hindsight bias. Hopefully by me saying all of that helps with considering physical reality. Another thing to consider is how magic numbers called constants, represent a lack of inclusion of dimensions. It's a way for our formula to adjust for what we are not calculating. You might even be able to call it the key to the illusion.
Hey drew an idea from a bit of very unexplored and under-developed lore that your creative flow would make a great topic from is Shadow Magic like that from The Elder Scrolls Legends Shadow key
How cool would it be if they made an entire Elder Scrolls game (or DLC, at the least), which took place exclusively in Oblivion (multiple different Daedric realms, but no Nirn)?
I never personally cared about Starfield, as I'm not into Sci-Fi and space travel. But there is one good thing about it. Now that it's finally been released, Bethesda can finally focus on creating Elder Scrolls 6.
I'm confused by an aspect of the creation myth set in the Elder Scrolls. It is said that in the beginning, both Aedra & Daedra were of equal strength & power, but Lorkan tricked half of the original spirits into pouring a portion of their divine energies into making Mundas, & those that partook became the Aedra & the gods of Mundas, but those that refused became the Daedric princes. However, it is always said that the Aedra, Kyne, Stendar, Akotosh, etc., they are stronger & more powerful than the Daedric princes, Maphala, Molag Bal, Hermamora, etc. My confusion is, if the Daedra didn't pour their divine energy into Mundas, shouldn't they be stronger, & not the Aedra?
So. Skyrim was the destruction of the heart of lorkhan. Mtg had a mechanic that came out in zendikar called landfall. Loveletter is... Relevant. I understand the parabolic kalpa more than i think i have any right to 🤔
*A note of concern, and perhaps even importance:* Upon revisit of the mythology of the Redguard, a concerning sentiment is raised. That of the Worldskins. The Altmer claim that all were once spirits, or that we were closer to them, however we know the corruption of myth that has come with political aim and religious dogma. The Alessian Empire, and the faith of the 8, turned 9, turned 8 serves the same basis as the beliefs in Summerset, with the addition of some and removal of others. Their stories line up. Yet, those stories have faults, inconsistency and self aggrandizing, as we see in the Khajiit stories. Yet all things hold a kernel of truth. The Yokuda Myth, then, states that, in line with the Elven tale of things, men used to walk alongside Gods, until Lorkhan, named Set to the Yokudans, tricked the gods into making Mundus, which traps them there. The story is the same, though the issue arises with the telling. Sep, Lorkhan, balled the old Worldskins together, and together the world was made too rigid, too unflexing, perhaps even more immortal. When one thinks of the world skins as previous kalpas this helps to explain the myth that Nirn was stitched together of many worlds, they are the old Worldskins, the prior kalpas. Perhaps this even explains the argonian issue, in that the hist and it's children were present in this realm from the very beginning. They come from prior world skin. Could this, then, explain why things are happening differently this time around, that we exist not on a world skin, but on a amalgam of those that came before, that some stories which do not align were told before, on a prior world skin. Perhaps this, then, explains why Magnus fled? If this world was truly different than the others, then perhaps it could explain why the star orphans and the great architect departed? This world, this place, this ball of skins, a stitching together of ancient stories, could demonstrate exactly how and why everything seems so different? Why Alduin could not consume the world, why Lorkhan's treachery Is a betrayal rightly punished, perhaps even why He continues to return, the eternal prisoner, he who sees both the bars and the door, Sep-Shor-Shezzar-Lorkhan, as the player character. This is not merely a Kapla, It is an amassment of all that came before, bound in one last world. It is not another, it is the final. Maybe this incarnation of the world, due to its creation, is inherently different than all that came before, as it is creation made in combination of all that had come before.
And here I was wondering what to watch, when suddenly an Oblivion portal opened up before me and out walked a Drewmora with more occult knowledge to share.
I can't stop feeling heartwarmed when Drew drops a video a Sunday or Saturday outta nowhere, but even more when one's lenght such as this. I hope we get all Oblivion planes and a couple more in TES 6. Thank you man for what you do, you do so graciously. Good vibes from Uru, no weed and coffee anymore... just decaf
"But we're not interested in fictional worlds like Earth"
I am dying send help XD
With what is happening right now, I wish Earth was fictional.
@@Lupinemancer87nah cus then it would set a new president for how bad fiction could be.
I love when you insert yourself in the story as if you were in tamriel at the beginning of your videos, even the little scenes coming from skyrim.
I’ll never get tired of hearing Drew talk about the elder scrolls or anything for that matter 😅
Please never stop making these. I absolutely love lore in TES but due to my ADHD I can find it hard to absorb it all whilst I'm playing. So having content creators like yourself literally means the mundus to me ❤
The slightly slowed down Oblivion ost, the production, the script, these videos feel so damn cozy to sit through
Meridia's flaw isn't just about style over substance, but also an obsession with purity. She laments the inconstancy of her mortal followers, and seeks to purge any corruption anywhere at all. Those mortals who serve her will inevitably discover that anything spawned by the Gray Maybe are far too checkered for her liking, and when she is finished dealing with greater evils, she will turn on the lesser ones, including those she sees within her allies who fall short of her ever-narrowing standards.
so she's basically a 21st century leftist😅
While I see the correlation. The same can be said about the fragile purging uncolored agenda on the right. This god is quite fitting for them.
I have never believed that the Shivering Isles is a realm one travels to but rather a place that visits you as you descend deeper and deeper into madness. The mind of one who makes the journey is encapsulated by the Isles, which is why it’s shaped like a brain, it’s your own mind, then the journey to new Sheo is as easy as a stroll into your own deranged thoughts.

I always love your videos it makes me feel good travel to the elder scrolls world and feel creative to draw more .
He'd have to be Hermaeus Mora or one of his servants.
I love the poetic intros to your videos so much, so well written
a response at 28:47... sick burn. im gonna need a wellness potion after that. we dont talk about him.
Very nice.
Very good topic to explore.
For even us traveled Loremasters it can be complicated to explain the nature of Planes without delving into Dawn Era madness.
Thank you, Drew the Daedrologist!
You are by and large my favorite elder scrolls channel. Your videos always feel like sitting down with a scholar as he discusses his findings and theories as he might to a bright student he feels can comprehend the subject.

Another excellent elder scrolls video👌 the ambience is unmatched thank you drew👍
Yesssss! Thanks Drew!
Spark some pipeweed, enjoy a brew as we enjoy yet another banger by our favorite Deadrologist
The daedrology we all signed up for!
Perfect timing Drew. Just went in break at work 😁 appreciate everything you do man
By the Nine, what a masterful script! Drew, you are my hero. A true story teller, a gentleman and a scholar. True master of your craft. I listen in awe, each and every release you do.
Ah. Nice. A new Drewmora ES video. All is right with the world.
I just had a bong rip and now Im going to catch up on 4 weeks of drewmora ;)
always a good day when a drew vid drops in the feed. ^.^
Keep up the amazing work Drew, happy to see these uploads!!
I find the narration mesmerizing. It's really nice to listen to.
THE DAEDROLOGIST HAS SPOKEN AGAIN
I literally looked up "planes of oblivion explained" a few days ago thank you drew
Thank you for the awesome content and great videos!!!
My #1 thing to listen to while mindlessly harvesting in ESO ;)
The thing with the guy looking fof traitors, then get frustrated and kill himself, only to discover thst HE was the traitor since he killed himself... I busted out laughing tbh.

Thank you Drew for helping bring everyone closer to Chim.
I'm always so happy when a TES lore video drops from Drew.

28:35 Ayo why you gotta do me like that😢
Ur videos are always visually stunning and the scripting is amazing. I wish I could give you an award or something
I'm really, really looking forward to your next video, Drew.
I’d love to live in the Shivering Isles, particularly Dementia. It’s such a vibe
I could sell you some mushrooms that would take you there.
Keep up the great work bro! Love your videos! This channel is incredibly underrated
Another classic. Great video drew
If the manifestation of a Dedra can be thought of as a particle, its influence and action the wave function, then its plane is its field.
Good analogy
I'm certain that I could hear Drew read the classified listings and I would listen to every minute.
2:50: "We have a tendency to plunge into the stinking depths of elder scrolls lore. Sometimes, the only way to process these topics is to have a long introspective shower and think about what we've done."
Thank elder Drewmora for the largesse that he shares his bounty of knowledge
I love listening to drewmora. My guy has reached level 100 speechcraft
You should do some Forgotten Realms history/lore videos for BG3.
I know you want to.
absolutely beautiful video man!
Its a good day when i see drewmora
Dude... not even remotely joking when i tell you that as i was listening to you read the excerpt from "Exegesis of Merid-Nunda" I stumbled across that exact book laying on the ground outside a run-down shack while exploring Coldharbour in ESO.
Hoping that was just a massive coincidence and not Molag Bal having a laugh before he confiscates my soul.
Always happy to see this content on my subscribed page.

I'm too excited for this, thank you drew!
Thank you for giving us more elder scrolls content.
Man Drew vids are such a desired and much needed break for me from the other things in going on in real life.
Hey babe, new drewmora just dropped
Lets freaking go
Omg i live for Drewmora videos .
Drew you are constantly putting out the best elder Scrolls content and evey video is somehow better then the last thank you
Amazing video as always. Deserves much more attention.
Love the video Drew 🔥❤
Fantastic video!
Thanks!
Keep em rollin', my daedrologist master 🥺🥺
Love your work! Comenting for the algorithm 🌻
MA!! MA! GET THE POPCORN! DREWMORA UPLOADED AGAIN!!
Well I know what I’m listening to on my drive home tonight
The Hill of Suicides isn't just punishment, i don't think, it's also Sheogorath's twisted mercy: his manic side may well truly believe he is happy, that in his dual madness he has overcome depression, sadness and defeatism and that those held upon the Hill are granted the same blessing he recieved to fully give themselves into depression and commit the ultimate madness of ending their own lives, but keep existing in this mad realm
Of course his demented side holds there those who shun his gift of depression and would instead take their lifes than live with it, a grudge which the Mad God cannot let go
Or maybe i'm completely wrong, and Sheogorath simply does as he does for reasons to which only himself is privy, or no reason at all
I will say, the dragon in this case is time, she stretched and compressed spacetime…creating a warp bubble…her own pocket of spacetime…
It seems like everything interesting in TES lore was written by Kirkbride. Is there a reason I should be interested in the future of the series?
Honestly, I'm more intrigued by The Wayward Realms when it comes to the nex gens coming
Hell yeah!
keep it up mate
Unlike others who get their daedrology information from fake mainstream black hourse courier, I prefer drewmora.
And here I thought the reason the Champion of Cyrodiil was insane was him mantling Pelinal and Uncle Sheo
Always a pleasure to see and listen to one of your stories! Am I hearing another fan influence correctly in the re-rendition of the Peace of Akatosh at the start of the video?
At 12:14 I noticed something that might have huge lore implications. "...[Oblivion's] quarters are the most mapped and charted of all the outer realms..."
So, Oblivion is but one of the outer realms? I mean I guess there's Aetherius too but... That seems to imply there are more?
Hiiii Drew.
Great Video !
Top notch vid as always. Glad you're still pumping out Elder Scrolls content! Was wondering if you could say where some of the shots were from i.e. the desert with the hourglass and dragon, Meridia's coloured rooms and the morrowind-like area with the cool sky box in the jntro. Are they from mods or places in ESO?
On another note, Drew, considering everything we know about Meridia, the Maga-Ge and Aedra, and all the different interpretations, do you think it's possible for Meridia to be redeemed in the eyes of the Aedra?

If Mortals can be redeemed this way, can former Magna-Ge?
Drewmora calls, and I arrive! Come nerevar, look upon my milk fingers! 😂
i accidentally trained my ear to listen for drew's gasps before he speaks each sentence, and now it's bugging the hell out of me.
Starfield ❌
Magicholefield ✅
Talking about kalpas for another video. Would be cool if it had a redgaurd vibe, I like how they put it with satakal and the world skin. Really ouroboros especially with all the dragon time God also combining lorkhan.
Just FYI Dimension is anything you can set to a variable. Also you can think of math as having a lot of hindsight bias. Hopefully by me saying all of that helps with considering physical reality. Another thing to consider is how magic numbers called constants, represent a lack of inclusion of dimensions. It's a way for our formula to adjust for what we are not calculating.
You might even be able to call it the key to the illusion.
We are used to live in a world of dead gods ... Poetic
Hey drew an idea from a bit of very unexplored and under-developed lore that your creative flow would make a great topic from is Shadow Magic like that from The Elder Scrolls Legends Shadow key
Finally, something Elder Scrolls🙏🙏🙏 everyone else is doing nothing but Starfield
Keep it up. I love it. Elder Scrolls lore is so batshit that videos and speculation can go on forever
The only God I worship is Drew. If you can, can you throw on more Breton or bosmer videos.
Sheogorath doesn't possess a soul because all he is is a soul.
@Drewmora Ever wonder what became of the other 8 of the "Nine Coruscatrions"?
How cool would it be if they made an entire Elder Scrolls game (or DLC, at the least), which took place exclusively in Oblivion (multiple different Daedric realms, but no Nirn)?
I never personally cared about Starfield, as I'm not into Sci-Fi and space travel. But there is one good thing about it. Now that it's finally been released, Bethesda can finally focus on creating Elder Scrolls 6.

So. Skyrim was the destruction of the heart of lorkhan.
Mtg had a mechanic that came out in zendikar called landfall.
Loveletter is... Relevant.
I understand the parabolic kalpa more than i think i have any right to 🤔
The whole point of Nirn was to be the playground of the Deadra.
*A note of concern, and perhaps even importance:*

Time to roll a blunt and listen to peak lore
As I man who makes videos for people to 💨 and chill too. I completely understand and respect this statement 💯
