So I was listening to side 2 of Popol Vuh's In Den Garten Pharaos and snackin' on some spiced pecans when it hit me... they hid the message for us in the image... haha... they wouldn't leave us with nothing!

The arrows over the shoulder were a CLUE, man.
The Dov hasn't been pictured with arrows. So you have to remove them.
The center line of the helmet shows you where to flip the image.

And there you go, fellow travelers... through the looking glass.

First is clearly 'Mirrim'.
Mirrim. A dragonrider from Dragonriders of Pern.

Secondly is pretty noticeable if not exact... 'DRAUG...'.

Undead, dragon riding, glowing eyes... it's all so clear now... I can see it all, man...

This was posted first, so I'll go and post here.

Hi, Dragonborn looks sixy with the yellow eyes. No homo.

[Laura Tempel]

Who wrote Shivering Isles, main quest of Morrowind and Oblivion's Thieves' Guild, that's what I wanna know. Those are exceptional, everything else is crap.

Shivering Isles was great and so was also the main quest of Oblivion and thieves guild was acceptable. Great is also the main quest of Skyrim and the civil war on the side of Stormcloaks. In Morrowind great house quests were nice but the main quest was the worst one Bethesda has ever made.

Great stuff, it's just too damn little. I am getting older by the second and my eyes are failing at a high rate of speed.

[El Goose]

People should read this post about the Snow Elves and whatnot, and crossbows. And vamp feeding.

That's good.

[BRAD MONTGOMERY]

I recall a leak about the DLC packs where a guy mentioned riding dragons in hammerfell along with horse combat. He also mentioned the possibility of a Morrowind landmass DLC with a questline filled with shap[censored]ing; kinda like werewolves but you can turn into other creatures. Maybe that is the cause of the glowing eyes? who knows.

But i don't understand why people are mad just because Bethesda hasn't given out much info on this upcoming DLC. I trust Bethesda, especially when they said they wan't these "expansion packs" to be "meaty" and filled with content. To me this sounds like they are trying to give us quality DLC with new landmass and not just the linear Operation Anchorage style of garbage.

I missed that vampire info before. That post makes me to think what if the Snow Prince and a few original snow elves are still living because they are vampires?

Also if you flip it 90 degrees due west then draw on a mustache whilst overlaying a canvas filter you lose your sanity and start to see so called "clues."

This reminds me of the guy that saw an image of a Kahjiit in the map of Skyrim, before the release.

It also reminds me of the guy that saw an image of Jeasus Christ in his toast.

Well I just looked at the fletching of the arrows in the Dovahkiin picture from Dawnguard. They do not appear to match the fletching of any of the current arrows. Maybe they are Snow Elf arrows?

[SaVino GοΜ]

You know instead of all this crap would it have not made more sense in March to just have announced that the DLC info would be released at E3 instead of the whole April suprise crap and then give us this lame excuse for information release?

I'm still hoping for crossbow bolts.

[Laura Mclean]

Sooo, we have a name that was already revealed to us via public trademarking info, and a poster of the Posterboy Dragonborn's eyes all glowing. What's it actually about?

[sas]

Actually... you get Dagoth-Ur at the time of the eruption in Vvardenfell! Nice catch...

You see their clues too, man... we're on to them...

[Anna Krzyzanowska]

Yup, that would make complete sense, but I thought most crossbow bolts were carried in a quiver at the hip? That would make sense given the concrete crossbow info we have.

Even if this is pretty crazy, that's pretty impressive that you put this altogether

Blaaahhrg!! illuminati!!! all seeing eye!!! Doomsday!!!

[patricia kris]

Snow Prince still shined [sic]. Even in death, this mighty and unknown Elf filled us with awe.
It is common practice to burn the corpses of our fallen foes. This is as much a necessity as it is custom, for death brings with it disease and dread. Our chieftains wished to cleanse Solstheim of the Elven horde, in death as well as life. It was decided, however, that such was not to be the fate of the Snow Prince. One so mighty in war yet so loved by his kin deserved better. Even in death, even if an enemy of our people.
And so we brought the body of the Snow Prince, wrapped in fine silks, to a freshly dug barrow. The gleaming armor and spear were presented on a pedestal of honor, and the tomb was arrayed with treasures worthy of royalty. All of the mighty chieftains agreed with this course, that the Elf should be so honored. His body would be preserved in the barrow for as long as the earth chose" maybe the prince was/is going to be resurrected maybe as a vamp?
