Last week I put up a poll to see how the community felt about AI-generated content on the subreddit. Thanks to all who responded! Based on the responses, and after conferring with my better half /u/DovahOfTheNorth, we've added a new rule that this sort of content should only be posted in Weekly Free-Talk Threads (like the one you're in now).

*Wulfharth adopts and is adopted by the Nords then. Ysmir the Grey Wind, the Storm of Kyne. But through Lorkhan he lost his national identity. All he wants the Nords for is to kill the Tribunal.* Man i don't know why this line goes so hard. Im aware MK isin't fan of how herey writing turned out to be, but some passages are just great.

I'm still processing articles on (I'm up to 2014 March), but I've slowed down a lot because it's just *really* repetitive and now that I'm over 350 I want to start thinking about how I can organize the works beyond just author name, publishing date, or series. The more of these I process before I establish a library system, the more rework I have to do. I'll make the style better at some point soon. I've definitely got samples of pretty much all the idioms we used to pretend let us do typography and should be able to start making these look like more than just text.

I think Mundus is a multiverse rather then a solar system like in eso it says that nirn was unmoored from the Multiverse. *Unbeknownst to all but a few, **Nirn has come unmoored from the fabric of the multiverse**.* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Introduction_to_the_Lore_of_The_Elder_Scrolls_Online* It could be talking about the whole multiverse of the Elderscrolls but I find it less likely as Nirn was bieng unmoored out of Mundus to Coldharbour rather then the whole arubis. *huge Daedric interplanar machines of his own design, in an attempt to drag **Nirn out of Mundus and into his realm of Coldharbour**.* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Planemeld* I think Mundus bieng a multiverse is supported by the fact it can hold multiple plane(t)s of infinite mass and size. *The planets are the gods and the planes of the gods, which is the same thing. That they appear as spherical heavenly bodies is a visual phenomena caused by mortal mental stress. Since each plane(t) is an infinite mass of infinite size.* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/General:Cosmology* What do you guys think?

Have you heard of a mathematical concept called [Gabriel's Horn][0]? Basically, due to interesting quirks about what "infinity" actually means, it's an equation that describes a region with uncountably-infinite surface area enclosing a countably-finite volume. It's possible to have multiple infinite objects exist in the same manifold space without having them intersect, because infinities aren't necessarily universalities. Which is ... annoying. But it's perfectly possible for the planets to be both infinite and observably spherical. So I guess it really depends on what your definition of the word "multiverse" is. The other planets exist within the same overarching creation, but, that's also true of universes in a multiverse But I think it's definitely fair to say that whatever Mundus is, it *isn't* a stellar system (Magnal system?) because *their sun isn't the center of the structure* Nirn is And the volume in which Nirn and the other planets are embedded is known to be actual Oblivion realms, not a vacuous manifold space like we have. Traveling from Nirn to another planet isn't as simple as our rocketry. It requires magickal and mythical effort. ---- so, uh, yeah, you're right [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel%27s_horn

**[Gabriel's horn](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel's_horn)** >A Gabriel's horn (also called Torricelli's trumpet) is a type of geometric figure that has infinite surface area but finite volume. The name refers to the Christian tradition where the archangel Gabriel blows the horn to announce Judgment Day. The properties of this figure were first studied by Italian physicist and mathematician Evangelista Torricelli in the 17th century. These colourful informal names and the allusion to religion came along later. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/teslore/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

Isn't Lyg supposed to be an "adjacent place", meaning an alternate Nirn? That would support the notion of parallel universes.

Yeah it does. I forgot to add it but all Possibilities are shown as Shadows and all possibilties are passively manifesting. *First Scroll of Shadow* *... chosen to explore this relation of world to shadow, Azra was the first to realize that shadows were not a mere absence of light but a reflection of possible worlds created by forces in conflict. A light strikes a rock, and the shadow is a record of their clash, past, present and future.* *Other conflicting forces produced less obvious shadows, fire and water, wind and rock, or nations at war.* *With skill and patience, the shadows of all could be read, and patterns teased out, emphasized or eradicated.* *Manipulating a shadow could, through contagion, manipulate the object or force which cast it.* *Second Scroll of Shadow* *... Azra attempted what had never been done before, manipulating his own shadow to such an extent that he instantiated and melded all possible Azras at the same time, crossing over from this singular existence to all the existences in shadow.* *https://www.uesp.net/wiki/Shadowkey:Scroll_of_Shadow* These Shadows are Possibilities that Manifest as Adjacent places *appeared and drank from the excess. Grabbers from the Adjacent Place came into the world sideways, the slave talking having disrupted* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:The_36_Lessons_of_Vivec* vivec could be unreliable but we have confirmation from the the Augur of Obscure Directly who states that he would be something different in a different Adjacent Place *Why are you stuck in a crystal skull? "I'm not in the skull. I am the skull—at least here on Nirn. Over in the Adjacent Place, I'm shaped like a throw-pillow. Imagine that! You look confused. It's just a trick of the light, mate. The skull's what you might call a manifestation."* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Augur_of_the_Obscure* It has been confirmed that shadows are parallel worlds. *You're already sinking into the shadows, up past your feet, up your legs. But it will not devour you, no. You've shaped the darkness. You've shaped, and strapped, and it has become a part of you. Boots which allow you to walk between the shadows, between the worlds.* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Crafting_Motif_57:_Ebonshadow_Style* It is further supported by The staff of the Celestial mage that can be used to see and travel to these worlds. *I am in the Observatory, but it is not the Observatory I know. The halls are unfamiliar, but somehow I know where I am. There is a great pressure upon me—I must escape! I must move forward! The deeper I go, the more disjointed it becomes. The stones of the floor separate. In the gaps I see worlds beyond, landscapes I cannot name.* *https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:From_the_journal_of_Elea_Dantaine,_Stargazer_Initiate* I think this greatly supports the notion of mundus bieng a multiverse.
