    Okay so after making this I realised I never actually did a video on thras, only on the sloads. If you wish to know more about Thras you can watch this video: ua-cam.com/video/P6IyRy-4Sag/v-deo.html
    Btw I dont feel like this video has turned out good, what do you guys think? Was it fine? I was experiencing mic problems so you literally hear my annoyance in the video haha. Sorry about that.

      Imperial Knowledge I would like a video on thras but just love geographic lore in the elder scrolls series in general more than most other subjects which is incredibly ironic because earth geography is one of my weakest subjects haha. So I vote for more geography videos in general! I thought the video could have been slightly more polished at a few points but it honestly didn't negatively effect my enjoyment of the video. Hope that helps.

      I truly hope they add some sort of sailing exploriation. People managed to add a limited form into skyrim using mods, and I hope that gives them inspiration

      I can see that if the game takes place in Hammerfell. It may be just be DLC, but given the amount of islands and piracy in the provenience it would make sense. Maybe you can even have a quest that follows the legendary exploits of Cyrus the Restless, the main character of Redguard

    If the lower half of the map is jungle, that means it’s probably near the equator. So there’s potentially even more stuff below what we know right now, and possibly to the left and right as well. Sweet

    In Skyrim no mods you can actually get to Roscrea's far west end, with lost of will power Arvak mount and boots of water walking you can get up the cliff actually onto the island. But will be greeted by an invisible wall. Is all just flat snow land as far as the eye can see. Keep going north from the college of Winter hold and you will find is. If you hit a barrier first turn west. Is has been a year since I whent there but I'm sure that's how I always found it

    Okay this may be better for the discord, but what races live on those islands between Tamriel and Akavir? It says there are Princes and rebellions so it’s obviously advanced intelligent races, but they aren’t from Tamriel, and here is no evidence they are making the Akaviri races either...? But in the lore it seems they are a type of man or mer. Is there something I don’t know?

      Perhaps. I doubt the Argonians would put together a navigational expedition large enough to create a settlement though. Seafaring doesn’t seem to be their thing. And the Prince’s name Bashomon doesn’t seem Argonian or Dunner in nature. But who knows ?
