Mephala, not Herma-Mora.

From "http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Varieties_of_Faith..." :

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Herma-Mora (The Woodland Man): Ancient Atmoran demon who, at one time, nearly seduced the Nords into becoming Aldmer. Most http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Ysgramor myths are about escaping the wiles of old Herma-Mora. Also called the Demon of Knowledge, he is vaguely related to the cult origins of the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Morag_Tong ('Foresters Guild'), if only by association with his brother/sister, Mephala.

Hm, it's a bit of a stretch.
But even without HM I hope for a Morag Tong sidequest.
Maybe we can have some tie ins to the main game and contact the Ravyn guy in the Thieves Guild.
I also thought about a tie in between Brandyl Tenvanni and the Telvanni on Solstheim.

From "http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Varieties_of_Faith..." :

The Morag Tong follow Mephala, the Web-Spinner. Hermaeus Mora has nothing to do with them.

Did you know the Dark Brotherhood were once part of the Morag Tong? One of the reasons for the schism, outside of some fundamental disagreements about who they should kill and when, was that the Dark Brotherhood followed the Night Mother and Sithis. Not Mephala.

Also The Anticipations has this to say--it's pro-Tribunal propaganda, so grain of salt time, but still:

Mephala is the Anticipation of http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Vivec_%28god%29, but manifold and androgynous. Mephala taught the Chimer to evade their enemies or kill them with secret murder. The Chimer were few in those days and threatened on all sides. Mephala taught the Chimer to build Houses. Later, Mephala created the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Morag_Tong.

Hermaeus Mora had nothing to do with it.

I wonder if these dragons we're supposed to be riding are students of Parthurnaax?

Maybe we'll have throwing weapons as well?
Why not? Thrown Spears were in New Vegas.

I doubt is "an Apocripha". it's THE apocripha. the one and only. way bigger than I thought apparently. And ALL made of books. now I have found my real home.
Resist Normal Weapons back, please, Bethesda. And more magic effects to survive in this dangerous land.

I am happy Redoran is still around. And Telvanni.
To hell with Hlaalu. I never liked those puny merchants and imperial collaborators. :tongue:

If we get throwing spears, I want throwing knives back. nothing would be better than using them to assassinate a target.

I have one complaint, and just one, why PC players have to wait more to get it? First of all, Elder Scrolls are what they are thanks to PC, and second, XBOX is from microsoft, i don't get why XBOX has a preferencial treatment over PC wich it's also a microsoft platform in almost 100% of gaming computers.

Take one of http://www.manorhg.com/store/images/MT_Toscana_Rec_Tissue.jpg.

It got preferential treatment, because it sold the best on the Xbox. :/

It's most likely Raven Rock, now in Redoran hands.
