Pyandonea is location of Sea Elves!

Post » Mon Sep 17, 2012 11:19 am

For those that have played Skyrim to the fullest, you must have come across the mysterious Sea elves in the books.
For those who don't know... the Sea Elves are the only type of elves that is still alive but has not been encountered in Elder Scrolls.

Look here:

http://www.edepot.com/elderscrolls.html

In the middle of the page:

PYANDONEA ! The location of PYANDONEA has been found!

It exists. And Elder Scrolls Online will probably feature these Sea Elves or Tropical Elves.

For those who rather look at youtube videos....

Now the secret is out, there is ANOTHER type of elves coming.

Congratulations, you've discovered a piece of lore that is at least 10 years old.... :P

Did you look at the video? There is ANOTHER continent southwest of Pyandonea too...

So two secrets:
REAL map of Pyandonea, AND location of a whole new continent southwest of Pyandonea...

This is official lore, because it came from the game itself. The size of it is also determined (it is an island the is sort of longish.

rofl ah a virgin to TES Lore.

now this has nothing to do with Skyrim, maybe you intended to put this in the TESO forums.

anyway, anyone who's even remotely interested in the TES series beyond the games are likely to have an idea of where Pyandonea is.

oh and nice try advertising your fansite ;p

Pyandonea is too far from Skyrim , I'd have High Rock instead.

I hate to burst your bubble, but thats kinda already known throughout TES lore. The Maomer were never lost. Just rather unfriendly.

This. Apart that I don't understand how people are so much recently re-discovering the wheel, I understand even less the insistence for a Pyandonea DLC, when both provinces have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Not to mention it'd mean an outrageous amount of work, due to the big environmental difference between them (from a semi-arctic climate, to a tropical islands' one).

why High Rock? That place is boring. The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall didn't sell very well, so maybe they need to go south, by southwest, to the new island of Pyandonea, and show a different type of elf.
Bretons and Orcs have been done to death... Look at World of Warcraft. I think Sea Elves (Tropical Elves) tamed the Left-Handed Elves from Yokuda. For those who don't know... Yokuda sank into the sea,
and all the Left-Handed Elves mutated into sea creatures... They live under the sea like Atlantis sank into the sea. Because the Sea Elves command the sea, they probably had contact with them (the underwater
Left-Handed Elves).

I think the Sea Elves (or Tropical Elves) are more interesting than orcs and humans.

The TES Orcs haven't been done to death. The WoW-style Hulk-wanna-bes, on the other hand, have.

The difference between WoW and TES Orcs:
WoW Orcs: "War, war, war, war, war, war, bash the ancient traditions of our people, kill the humans - we need no one, take huge technical advances just to exterminate them all!"
TES Orcs: "I travel these lands to bring honor and wealth to my homeland, and one day return home to challenge my brothers for chiefdom."

That picture is not accurate. It uses a fan made mod for Pyandonea. Where as:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zE0QjuyjFxA

Shows a REAL IN-GAME map. In-Game maps are official lore. So Pyandonea is kind of like an island that is long and thin. And southwest of it is another continent (we don't know what it is, perhaps it is also cold like Skyrim at the south pole... Or it is actually near Australia type of weather.

Where's Khuul? I cannot see it where it should be, just off the coast of Morrowind. It's an important point of Bloodmoon expansion, after all!

Are you sure it's not Akavir, or Atmora? After all, the world is a -globe-, and don't you think you'd arrive in the same point when going far enough into one direction?
Not to forget that the other continents need to have earned their title "continent" from something - most probably their massive size. Else, they'd just be big islands.

If they do Pyandonea as part of another game, it would probably be the one focusing on the Summerset Isles, since its in that area. At least High Rock borders on Skyrim.

Orsinium is the only 'province' small enough to fit entirely within the DLC concept.
It's not even a province. It's a city.
Hence the name, "Orc Town".

Which is why its in single quotes. Its only a province in the sense that its the homeland of a race.

Give me a breath. What it shows in the video is more random stuff than anything lore-accurate. It's pretty absurd to base your arguments along some random pixels.

And no, Pyandonea is definitely tropical. The Maormer are also called the "Tropical Elves", and the lore about it says "The island is covered mostly in rain forests which provides a habitat for the southern water spirits." (UESP wiki).

Touché! :)

Relatively good point. Though, it's not the homeland of even the majority of the people - most Orcs live either in Strongholds, or share the habitats with the Bretons and Redguards. You could say they are to Bretons like the Indians are to Americans.
Apologies for the continuous corrections. :blush:
