First page from comic about hiking (I made a sketch for this years ago, while hiking at Norway ā„ ) I will upload next pages this weekend ā„
sometimes I like to imagine gameplay differences between oblivion and skyrim as regional habits.
like, mages in cyrodiil are usually taught to cast spells with their wrist/elbow as the main channel of arcane energy, which means they can cast spells with a weapon in their hand. or a cyrod alchemist might become flabbergasted by a northerner's complete lack of "on-the-go" alchemy equipment, as being able to make tonics and elixirs on the field is common practice in the heartlands.
meanwhile, skyrim's practices are shaped less by standardized techniques and more by tradition, the preference of the teacher, and superstition. like, a nord mage may know how to cast without directing magic directly through their hand/fingers but when asked about it, they'll tell you to do so is disrespectful. likewise, it's most common to make potions in advance at a proper alchemy table.
and yeah if the two were to meet they might get into a very heated debate about it.
This is heavily based off of the speculated tree from UESP: Ehlnofex Languages featuring my own speculations.
Notes: Old Cyrodilic is partly based on Ayleidoon, Nedic and Tsaesci. Old Cyrodilic can be thought of as a pidegonlanguage or possibly a lingua franca.
*Dwemeris is spoken by some scholars, but not in a speech community.
**I speculate Ashland is a dialect of Dunmeris.Ā
+Spoken by Gelebor and known by some scholars.
The choice to call something a language versus a dialect is largely political so I went based off of my judgments.
I chose to call Snow Elvish, Snow Elvish over Falmeris because Gelebor prefers to be called a Snow Elf :)
@uesp I'd love to hear your thoughts! Particularly on the dialects! (Also Tumblr killed the image quality so DM me if you want to see the clearer image)

Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.
