I've really got no idea what Hearthfire could be about. My instincts tell me that it's obviously something Bethesda has wanted to do, and/or intended to do with an earlier game, but never could. The 2920 series of books, Summoning Dates, random events. All these don't seem to have any linking thread between them, so with that in mind, I'll just take a shot in the dark, as a blind man, who also had his head replaced by a turnip.
Now remember, this is just hopefulness, nostalgia and speculation, but I think Hearthfire could be a Magic-centric Expansion that takes place in Mainland Morrowind. From Blacklight to Necrom. If spears are to make their debut in the next major expansion, Morrowind represents the obvious setting that would be fitting for their revival, given that Dunmer Tribals and Argonian Skirmishers favored these weapons.
