My Akatosh...His ass is right. There's several things that happened...oh no xD. The dragon war, the vampires, miraak, the death of an emperor, thieves running about, and or being sent to some time travelers and having an arch mage, many sweet rolls stolen, there's so much...
@@totallynotmozziesaccount8506 weird how the dudes in Anon masks went from the smartest on the internet 2 decades ago to the dumbest on the internet today.
Fun fact about horses: they are the weirdest fucking animals alive. They can't vomit, so if they eat something bad they've just got to deal with it and hope they don't die. They have very little depth perception, but they make up for it by being able to see almost all the way around themselves. Also their blood cells stack on top of one another, which in any other animal would be called Rouleaux formation and would be a sign of significant disease. For horses, that's how their blood cells act normally. Their running speed is directly tied to their breathing rate so if they run too fast, they breathe too hard. If they breathe too hard, their diaphragm can actually cause damage to their internal organs. Honestly, the more my vet friends tell me about horses, the more I'm surprised they've survived this long.
Hired thugs can be sent to teach you a lesson, with a letter signed by a horse. As if animals counting as witnesses for your bounty weren't bad enough.
Another fact: The Bloodlet Throne is one of the few dungeons to receive an update when Dawnguard originally released -- adding Gargoyle enemies to the castle interior.
The Volkihar vampires DO make use of frost magic. Their death hounds make almost exclusive use of it, and so do the vampires. They just use their vampire-specific powers more often.
@@DragonGunzDorian not really but pretty often selling there as have main house nearby and trying not to have loot all over the Skyrim (at least unique ones)
A point for Number 2: Remember when you first come to falkreath and pass the hall of the dead? What’s Runil doing? He’s holding a service for a couple who lost their child. In fact, if you pay attention, you do come in on his left much like he describes in the dream. So while the death isn’t “plot relevant” it is an allusion as you when the player first meets the priest. Rather interesting how we see a lot of people with prophetic dreams in Skyrim...
I remember coming here once when a dragon attacked. As it landed in the middle of town, I drew my weapons ready to fight it. Before I could, everyone (and I mean everyone) in Falkreath rushed it and completely surrounded it. I couldn't even find a spot to start hitting. It was dead before I could touch it. Falkreath: You picked the wrong town fool!
Whenever I play with my own RP (it's my mercenary character, no fast travel, no waiting, sleep only at inns, actually doing mercenary work so only quests for money, eat at meal times, no potions, etc) and play as a mercenary wandering about looking for work falkreath is my unnoficial base, it's one of the best holds for this.
Falkreath is actually my favourite hold. I think that its forest and lake Illinalta is the most beautiful natural parts of Skyrim. On the other hand the city is not that great but I installed a mod to make it better and especially with a bigger cemetery.
@Crow I forget about Morthal and Dawnstar. The only reason why I remember Falkreath is because my family lives in Lakeview Manor, and I love that house. I go home and see Rayya, my Housecarl, Lydia, my steward, Muiri, my wife, Sissel and Lucia, my daughters, Meeko, my dog, and Llewellyn, my bard. It's so nice after a big adventure to come home and see my family.
@@MrsTold Cloudy Night is right, but the game itself also makes it clear. When you first go to Whiterun to speak to Balgruuf, he decides to send hold guards to protect Riverwood. There is an argument about that decision because his steward thinks that putting troops in a border town might be viewed by the jarl of Falkreath as a provocation. Also, there is an Imperial presence in Helgen, but Whiterun is neutral in the early part of the story and there is no Imperial garrison anywhere in Whiterun hold. If Helgen were part of Whiterun, Balgruuf would certainly not have let the Imperials occupy the fortifications there at that time. Nor would the Imperials have done so against his will, since they were still trying to persuade Balgruuf to join them willingly and such an act would have antagonized him.
Cult following? It's considered by many to be one of if not the greatest game ever and one of the best selling games ever and re-released many times with still a famously large player base today. It's a lot larger than a cult following
I for one think that Haafingar and Hjaalmarch couldn't hold such a place cause Hjaalmarch is mostly swamp and I've never seen big enough mountains to hold Dwemer ruins.
Falkreath is actually my favorite town. It's the first town I went to because I didn't follow Hadvar and I was instantly in love with its lush and beautiful scenery. I know that it actually looks pretty basic for a seasoned veteran, but to me, who was a rookie at the time looking at Skyrim through a fresh pair of eyes, it looked like paradise. I even built my house there. The lore of the place is pretty rich too, and I wish Bethesda could have done more with it.
Hey Nate, I really love your content. Whenever I feel frustrated playing Skyrim and want to stop playing, I watch your videos and feel interested all over again. Your videos are entertaining and fun. It's really helping me get through this corona virus lock down time by keeping me entertained and engaged. So big thanks to you and keep up the good work!
Well, when the player and Serana walk around Castle Volkihar during a quest to find the back entrance, Serana explains that the previous owners used to receive supplies through there. So, the castle wasn't always Harkon's place, meaning his family and clan could easily have come from Bloodlet Throne in Falkreath. Also, as far as I recall, if you play the basegame without Dawnguard and Dragonborn installed, the stronger vampires in Bloodlet Throne are in fact named Volkihar vampires. So, there you have it. Harkon's old hangout :)
@@RazorO2Productions I know. I've used them. I meant that I wish Bethesda had made the effort from the start to make the cities a bit better. Give a Heartland influences feel to Falkreath. A mixed Redguard and Breton flavor towards Markarth. That sort of thing where it would be keeping with traditions of the province.
I have a suggestion for tiny details, which I just discovered. In Whiterun in the Drunken Huntsman you can sell Elrindir your food, weapons and clothes, but you can actually also sell him potions. Well, I say potions. When you go to the potion slot and you happen to carry skooma with you, you can sell him potions, but only your skooma. Everything else won't be shown there, except the moonsuggary drug. He seems to be a Mer with a little dirty secret 😏. I thought this might be interesting :)
greetings from the i do not exactly where i read this information but if I’m remembering correctly, arkay was a mortal mortuary dude and was graduated to being an aedra because the other aedra didn’t want to deal with dead people so he came like the peryite of the aedra, he’s like the garbage disposal, granted thats never really elaborated on nor really mentioned like it is with talos
@@rickisnothome There isn't really a solid consensus on the origins of Arkay, some sources say he was once mortal, some say he is the son of Akatosh, and some say he is an original spirit, no one really knows/ agrees
well, you can ask him to wait at the cave once you get there, you can get the axe and finish the quest alone. yeah I only found out/tried that after more the an thousand hours of game.
@@IndependentOreo " >only needs to preform a novice fire spell to join mage college >breeze thru questline knowing least amount of magic possible. >becomes archmage.
Yay! This is the one I was waiting for! I like Falkreath, it kinda felt like a getaway place where I could go to get away from all the dragonborn responsibilitys and civil war fights.
I’ve been playing Skyrim for about five or six years now, and I’ve got the game on four different consoles. PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Switch. I enjoy every second I spend in the game and all of the extra information I’ve got from these videos makes it even more fun than I thought possible.
Falkreath is one of those small towns that I find to be the most relaxing, with Riverwood being a hard second. Its nested in a wooded area, with a small stream running nearby, lots of trees, etc. Sure it aint the safest, but damn is it scenic
And Kodlak as well - I have a feeling since we're such a vitally important figure to defeat Alduin, anyone even slightly sensitive is having prophetic dreams telling them that help is on its way.
Anyone know the name of that tune that Nate used to use as an outro in his videos? PS. I miss those outros. Allways makes me smile when I am listening to the classics
Actually, I would say that the stranger mentioned in the journal is *definitely* the Dragonborn. Typically the first time you meet him (at least, this is how it's always gone for me) is when Thadgeir asks you to deliver Berit's ashes to Runil, and when you find him he's conducting the funeral that starts Ill Met by Moonlight. It also bears some similarity to Kodlak's dream, wherein he also sees the Dragonborn in a dream shortly before actually meeting them.
Just so you know for future videos. The 3rd Empire ended after Martin’s sacrifice & the assassination of the Potentate. The Empire in Skyrim is the 4th Cyrodillic Empire, ruled by the Mede Dynasty.
I fell in love with Falkreath very early on in my first ever experience with Skyrim. I'd never played an open-world game like Skyrim before, and when I finished the tutorial and was cast out to fend for myself, I had no idea what I was doing…nor did I notice the compass at the top of the screen. As such, I quickly got lost, and eventually wound up in Falkreath. There, people talked about how the sun shines so rarely in the town - and as someone who HATES sunlight IRL (it just feels unpleasant on my skin, I know I'm a freak but it's just how I am), I liked the place immediately. I then tried to leave Falkreath proper, still not noticing the compass, and somehow ended up doubling back to it at least three times. At one point during that doubling-back, I ran into my ultimate Skyrim husbando, Talsgar the Wanderer - if my username doesn't indicate enough why I was immediately drawn to the character (it's been my username since before I tried Skyrim), I also love music, and of course, the wanderer is a bard. For these reasons, Falkreath is permanently my favorite part of Skyrim. I went SO far out of my way to become a thane in Falkreath so I could live there, and when the vanilla game didn't let me get a house in the hold, I was devastated. Luckily, I'd gotten the ultimate edition with the DLC included, and after some digging, I discovered this and was over the moon, immediately installing the DLCs and happily setting to building an estate for myself by the lake. To this day, no matter what properties I may accrue in Skyrim, Lakeview Manor in Falkreath will always and forever be my only true home in the nation. Funny that it's where the Dark Brotherhood are housed…for my good guy playthrough, I was heartbroken that my home was also home to such monsters, and glad to rid the place of them; and for my asshole playthrough, it's nice that my favorite guild is also stationed in the place I call home. XD
And they say there are allot of them, but seeing as it seems to be a war cemetery for generations of wars, it seems small. Even for Skyrim population and size problems compared to lore.
So many graves. From the hold's grave, to ancient graves. I didnt want to sent my children there when I was done building my house. I sent them to Solitude instead.
Honestly I really hope in Elder Scrolls 6 they make the cities actual cities not a collection of 5 buildings, and 4 people. The lack of actual cities bugged me even in 2011.
last time I enjoyed hating the companies games was morrowind. Can't complain about a hard to find inn in the town if the only two are right there in the open. 1h of searching the town for your first quest target there is long gone saddly
There's evidences pointing to Harkon's family becoming vampires as early as the Merethic Era or the early 1st Era, before any human Empire existed. Serana specifically questions "what Empire" when you awaken her. They are quite likely older than the Bloodlet Throne and unlikely to be related to the Jarl of Falkreath.
Remember what Runil says about performing services before being approached by someone that can roar. It's literally what you do if you pick up the ashes from Thadgeir usually cutting wood at the entrance of Falkreath. He says Runil needs to perform some last rights for Berit's soul. Then you saunter over to Runil who is - if you are meeting him for the first time - giving a sermon to Mathies and his wife, which I presume is for their daughter that was killed by Sinding. So he is actively involved in two services when you approach hiim. I presume this is what he is experiencing in the dream.
There's I'd like to share that could reveal more about the Volkihars. In Volkihar ruins in one room on a tall shelf I found a silver sword. I checked around the ruins for more, but this is the only silver sword in the entire castle. No vampire would use this weapon, it specifically made for fighting undead. I believe it's possible the clan had some conflict with the Silver Hand(or a similar group), in which this single sword was taken as a trophy by one of the vampires.
Hey Nate! Do you know what those light orbs that follows you are in Yngol Barrow? I went into Yngol Barrow for a mission yesterday but I was left fascinated with those following light orbs.
Nate, I have two small details I havent seen covered in a video yet! 1st, there’s a Nord NPC in Whiterun named Sigurd who works for Belethor’s store, spending time chopping wood outside of it near the market. This is the very same name as the legendary Dragon Slayer in Norse mythology who killed the immortal dragon Fafnir. Considering the setting of Skyrim, it’s nice to think that there could be another great hero in the making. 2nd, this is more of a glitch I discovered 5 years ago while playing Skyrim. But for the Whirlwind Sprint and Fire Breath shout, you can basically learn two words of power in High Hrothgar and the Throat of the World. Paarthunax and he Greybeards give you the starting words to the two indicated shouts. But if you have some spare Dragon Souls, you can pull a little trick. After they show you the word, you have a few seconds before they give you their understanding of it. In this time, use the Dragon Souls to unlock the shouts. They will still give you their understanding of it, but they will instead teach you the next word. So you basically get two words of power for free and a more powerful shout than you would expect from the start of the game. Edit: Make that 3, just learned this one a minute ago. After Diplomatic Immunity, Delphine directs you to Brynjolf in order to find Esbern. This is often how most people first get to Riften and meet the Thieves Guild. But if you’re already in the Thieves Guild, there’s a slight change in Delphine’s dialogue and she tells you to ask around the Ragged Flaggon instead.
I really love how you did this video, especially with the tale of Tiber Septim and Falkreath. It was cool to see the Imperial City and interpretations of the characters!
Hey Nate, I really like your deep dives in lore videos! They’re really fascinating to me and help me appreciate the game so much more! If I may make one small criticism, I think these Skyrim videos could use a little more variety in your background music. I noticed that most of your videos play the main Skyrim theme in the background for the entire thing. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Skyrim theme as much as the next guy, but I think including other songs in your videos from the same soundtrack, even playing more of those songs through your videos, would be really cool too! Other than that, I really enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work 😊
vampires do use ice magic. the death hounds also use it in their bites also for games, i know it's not fallout or elder scrolls.. but dragon age ^.^ it's also a good series.
Bilegulch mine is a former orc stronghold I think. As it the other one I think. Everytime I've gone there it's only been orc mercenaries or orc bandits. The architecture is so similar to the strongholds it's hard to deny.
I believe Harkon may have some connection to the Blades. His sword is a Blades sword with a unique guard. Could just be a lazy design, but this channel has taught me to not ignore coincidences.
In the Falkreath prison cells where you start that Werewolf Quest, Noticed an awful lot of Moon Light and maybe that's another clue. If a Vampire were in that cell ye only shall wait for the break of dawn and with wet floors, The ashes of those afflicted rejoins into the elements of Mundus. Just an observation due to the odd nature and shape of that cell. Keep up the good work and always love tuning in, So have a great day/night Nate. 🎉🎮🎊
I would really love if you could check the captions! They're auto-generated on most of your videos, but I watch with captions all the time, so the auto-generated ones can be confusing for me sometimes. I love these videos !!

I absolutely love all your skyrim videos!!! I just recently started watching and I absolutely love them. Skyrim is my favorite game and I love learning new things! So by watching your videos I am learning more about my favorite game! Thank you for all your content!!!!
Hey Nate good video! I was hoping you could go over the weirdness which is the Strange Vessel in Sostheim in Moesring Pass. I know it has been covered before and I remember some stuff from Morrowind but I love the way you break stuff down.
Maybe the king of falkreath that died in that "fire" didnt die but contracted vampirism, moved off the coast of solitude and changed his name to harkon taking his family with him and Tiber septum covered it up by burning the place to the ground to stop an uprising against the newly founded empire
This has become my favorite channel on youtube. Man, I was looking for something to fill TES lore ever since shottycast fell in. This is it. This is IT!
@@HareDeLune Fudgemuppet, Camelworks, aye, I have. Thank you for the heads up on Lady of Scrolls. Had no idea about that one. I originally came into TES lore with the Lore Series from Shottycast. Just been out of the loop. I love this channel though. The narration has that "It's night already and I'm staying up until dawn" kind of feel to it whereas Shottycast is used to sleep to.
@@Blaskotrain I miss Shoddycast sometimes. I enjoyed how they made screenshots from the game into artwork that resembled storybook illustrations to go with the videos. Lady of Scrolls uses some nice art, as well, but it's not the same. : ) Edit: I discovered TES lore from reading books in-game, then through the UESP Wiki. en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Main_Page
@@HareDeLune yeah- I know what you're talking about. That painting looking overlay they used. I liked it too. I really liked the original narrator but I loved it when they brought in that older Deckard Cain guy for season 2. I didn't mean anything bad or negative by saying it was to sleep to. It was just more laid back. If you know of any other quality TES content creators, let me know.
@@Blaskotrain Alright, I can think of a few others, then it's off to bed for me. If you love great roleplaying and storytelling, there are two guys you don't want to miss. Gopher, who has done Let's Play's of Skyrim, Fallout New Vegas, and Fallout 3. He plays some other games as well, and also has a channel called Gopher Live, where he posts livestreams of himself and friends playing various games. Gopher is also a modder and mod author. He is a natural actor and absolute hardcore roleplayer. His videos often have parts that are hilarious and brilliant. Beloved characters he has played include Jack from the Fallout New Vegas series, Richard from Skyrim, and the current character Leonard, also from Skyrim. m.ua-cam.com/users/GophersVids He also has a website where you can search his videos: www.gophersvids.com Couch Warrior (or Couch WarriorTV) AKA Stu King, is a fantastic story teller. Although I have only watched a few of his playthroughs, they were all good. The original St. Billy series from Fallout 4 (not the livestreams) was superb, and even moved me emotionally. Yes, *that* from Fallout 4! Unbelievable! For Skyrim, you can't go wrong with The Passage, about a veteran Altmer being forced to be an agent for the Thalmor against his will. Stu also has a website and podcast called Character Crusade where he and others discuss roleplaying and storytelling in games like Skyrim, and how you can do it better and more effectively in your game. m.ua-cam.com/users/thecouchwarriortv www.charactercrusade.com/#storyteller If you want silly and sometimes hilarious, then I recommend Koubitz. She mostly livestreams on Twitch and posts highlights on her YT channel. She doesn't post regularly, but some of her stuff is hilarious, if you don't mind her voice, personality, and style. She also has some excellent mod recommendation videos. m.ua-cam.com/users/Koubitz Nukazooka has some flat-out amazing live action game-based videos. Check out The Double Jump, Skyrim vs. Fallout, and Sneaking in Skyrim for starters (may not be exact titles). I don't keep up with them like I should, but there are only so many hours, you know? m.ua-cam.com/users/andrewmfilms If you want quality opinions, information, lore, alternate takes on how the TES games could have been, and other Über-nerdery, as well as early TES titles gameplay, check out Zaric Zhakaron. m.ua-cam.com/users/Zhakaron Finally, if you like to play Skyrim with mods, and need some good tutorials, there are three people of note: Gopher (from above), Dirty Weasel Media, and Gamerpoets. All of them have produced top notch modding guides. m.ua-cam.com/users/ar15nurse m.ua-cam.com/users/gamerpoets One last thing.

this gave me a laugh
Go help them yourself, Preston, you prick! 😂
I would like to see someone overlap every single intro from you that would be amazing
That would be a three hour video. : P
Hare deLune keyword is “overlap”
And then all of his "and ___ isn't telling"
They did that with vsauce it was epic

Falkreath has such a nice atmosphere when it rains, the woods of that hold is one of my favorite areas.

His face turned dark because Nate ran out of texture memory.
The people killed everyone in that graveyard. Im telling yah
Hey Nate, I really love your content. Whenever I feel frustrated playing Skyrim and want to stop playing, I watch your videos and feel interested all over again. Your videos are entertaining and fun. It's really helping me get through this corona virus lock down time by keeping me entertained and engaged. So big thanks to you and keep up the good work!
Well, when the player and Serana walk around Castle Volkihar during a quest to find the back entrance, Serana explains that the previous owners used to receive supplies through there. So, the castle wasn't always Harkon's place, meaning his family and clan could easily have come from Bloodlet Throne in Falkreath. Also, as far as I recall, if you play the basegame without Dawnguard and Dragonborn installed, the stronger vampires in Bloodlet Throne are in fact named Volkihar vampires. So, there you have it. Harkon's old hangout :)
Always wished they'd made Falkreath's "palace" a little more like a Imperial fort with maybe a statue of the first Third Era Emperor outside it.
Mods
@@RazorO2Productions I know. I've used them. I meant that I wish Bethesda had made the effort from the start to make the cities a bit better. Give a Heartland influences feel to Falkreath. A mixed Redguard and Breton flavor towards Markarth. That sort of thing where it would be keeping with traditions of the province.
@@cstains5543 Sorry but that is asking Bethesda to not cut corners and content.
My favorite Hold in the game.
Why does that Mod make an Altmer look like leather???
That's a "dark face bug", happens when textures from many mods conflict in some way (AKA: Probable bad installing).
The dark face bug is when two or more mods conflict on the same characters appearance and it glitches their face. It’s most common with the companions

It can also happen if you run out of texture memory.
@@TearothDK in that case, woldn't it be purple ?
I have a suggestion for tiny details, which I just discovered. In Whiterun in the Drunken Huntsman you can sell Elrindir your food, weapons and clothes, but you can actually also sell him potions. Well, I say potions. When you go to the potion slot and you happen to carry skooma with you, you can sell him potions, but only your skooma. Everything else won't be shown there, except the moonsuggary drug. He seems to be a Mer with a little dirty secret 😏.
I thought this might be interesting :)

Between Runil and Florentius, Arkay sure comes off way more communicative than the other Aedra.
greetings from the
i do not exactly where i read this information but if I’m remembering correctly, arkay was a mortal mortuary dude and was graduated to being an aedra because the other aedra didn’t want to deal with dead people so he came like the peryite of the aedra, he’s like the garbage disposal, granted thats never really elaborated on nor really mentioned like it is with talos
@@rickisnothome There isn't really a solid consensus on the origins of Arkay, some sources say he was once mortal, some say he is the son of Akatosh, and some say he is an original spirit, no one really knows/ agrees
let's be honest Falkreath and several the other minor holds are very underwhelming without mods.
Morthal wants you to know that words can hurt 😔✌️
I want Morthal to know without the spooky ookie vampire quest it’s boring
Any good mods for them?

But if you never get rid of him he’ll never die and kill all the enemies

well, you can ask him to wait at the cave once you get there, you can get the axe and finish the quest alone. yeah I only found out/tried that after more the an thousand hours of game.

Yay! This is the one I was waiting for! I like Falkreath, it kinda felt like a getaway place where I could go to get away from all the dragonborn responsibilitys and civil war fights.
I’ve been playing Skyrim for about five or six years now, and I’ve got the game on four different consoles. PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Switch. I enjoy every second I spend in the game and all of the extra information I’ve got from these videos makes it even more fun than I thought possible.
Falkreath is one of those small towns that I find to be the most relaxing, with Riverwood being a hard second. Its nested in a wooded area, with a small stream running nearby, lots of trees, etc. Sure it aint the safest, but damn is it scenic
He's not the only one with special dreams, the girl in the town outside of whiterun in rorikstead named I think Sissl or something she has them too.
Yup, the little magic girl who has a nasty sister and a bitter dad. I think she dreams about Pnax up on the mountain
And Kodlak as well - I have a feeling since we're such a vitally important figure to defeat Alduin, anyone even slightly sensitive is having prophetic dreams telling them that help is on its way.
@@paine_inflicta oh right, his journal says that as well after his funeral
I also like the old lady who's jarl in morthal. Her and her daughter have visions and dreams.
Nazeem has special dreams, too. They're usually about The Cloud District and the Jarl's ass.
Anyone know the name of that tune that Nate used to use as an outro in his videos?
PS. I miss those outros. Allways makes me smile when I am listening to the classics
Actually, I would say that the stranger mentioned in the journal is *definitely* the Dragonborn. Typically the first time you meet him (at least, this is how it's always gone for me) is when Thadgeir asks you to deliver Berit's ashes to Runil, and when you find him he's conducting the funeral that starts Ill Met by Moonlight. It also bears some similarity to Kodlak's dream, wherein he also sees the Dragonborn in a dream shortly before actually meeting them.
Just so you know for future videos. The 3rd Empire ended after Martin’s sacrifice & the assassination of the Potentate. The Empire in Skyrim is the 4th Cyrodillic Empire, ruled by the Mede Dynasty.
even then the 4th wasnt established for like another 50 years
Exactly
When you're so early all the comments are about being early.

Does anybody know the armor mod in the thumbnail, and also if its for xbox one
Seriously, with Visual and lighting mods, Falkreth is fricking BEAUTIFUL and I love shopping, smithing, questing and everything else in that hold.
the forest are the most realistic in the game !
This man forgets Helgen is in falkreath hold, one of the most important parts of the game smh nate smh
I fell in love with Falkreath very early on in my first ever experience with Skyrim. I'd never played an open-world game like Skyrim before, and when I finished the tutorial and was cast out to fend for myself, I had no idea what I was doing…nor did I notice the compass at the top of the screen. As such, I quickly got lost, and eventually wound up in Falkreath. There, people talked about how the sun shines so rarely in the town - and as someone who HATES sunlight IRL (it just feels unpleasant on my skin, I know I'm a freak but it's just how I am), I liked the place immediately. I then tried to leave Falkreath proper, still not noticing the compass, and somehow ended up doubling back to it at least three times. At one point during that doubling-back, I ran into my ultimate Skyrim husbando, Talsgar the Wanderer - if my username doesn't indicate enough why I was immediately drawn to the character (it's been my username since before I tried Skyrim), I also love music, and of course, the wanderer is a bard. For these reasons, Falkreath is permanently my favorite part of Skyrim. I went SO far out of my way to become a thane in Falkreath so I could live there, and when the vanilla game didn't let me get a house in the hold, I was devastated. Luckily, I'd gotten the ultimate edition with the DLC included, and after some digging, I discovered this and was over the moon, immediately installing the DLCs and happily setting to building an estate for myself by the lake. To this day, no matter what properties I may accrue in Skyrim, Lakeview Manor in Falkreath will always and forever be my only true home in the nation. Funny that it's where the Dark Brotherhood are housed…for my good guy playthrough, I was heartbroken that my home was also home to such monsters, and glad to rid the place of them; and for my asshole playthrough, it's nice that my favorite guild is also stationed in the place I call home. XD
Also, with the largest graveyard in Skyrim, people are just dying to get in there.
But they aren't as dead as that joke. I am known for bad jokes, but I wouldn't touch that one.
The only thing I remember about Falkreath are the graves...
And they say there are allot of them, but seeing as it seems to be a war cemetery for generations of wars, it seems small. Even for Skyrim population and size problems compared to lore.
Napoleon Bonaparte I fight vampires from the old man in Falkreath
So many graves. From the hold's grave, to ancient graves.
I didnt want to sent my children there when I was done building my house. I sent them to Solitude instead.
there were like 3 gravestones lol
I had a look at cracked tusk keep in the creation kit and it turns out it's also called Gularz Khazgur Keep
Maybe Gularz Khazgur was planned to be a full on Orc Stronghold but it was scrapped at the last minute?
6:20 That's definitely Alduin.
6:35 And that's the Last Dragonborn coming to deliver Berit's Ashes.
Hey nate i love your videos and this past year or so of watching you have made me really happy 😊
Last time I was this early, I started my first playthrough
Dino Blahh ahh the good old days. 2011
Honestly I really hope in Elder Scrolls 6 they make the cities actual cities not a collection of 5 buildings, and 4 people. The lack of actual cities bugged me even in 2011.
Same, especially since this came after oblivion
last time I enjoyed hating the companies games was morrowind. Can't complain about a hard to find inn in the town if the only two are right there in the open. 1h of searching the town for your first quest target there is long gone saddly
Fantastical detailed history of our game. Still good today! Simply the best, Nate. Love from England.
There's evidences pointing to Harkon's family becoming vampires as early as the Merethic Era or the early 1st Era, before any human Empire existed. Serana specifically questions "what Empire" when you awaken her. They are quite likely older than the Bloodlet Throne and unlikely to be related to the Jarl of Falkreath.
Remember what Runil says about performing services before being approached by someone that can roar. It's literally what you do if you pick up the ashes from Thadgeir usually cutting wood at the entrance of Falkreath. He says Runil needs to perform some last rights for Berit's soul. Then you saunter over to Runil who is - if you are meeting him for the first time - giving a sermon to Mathies and his wife, which I presume is for their daughter that was killed by Sinding. So he is actively involved in two services when you approach hiim. I presume this is what he is experiencing in the dream.
Nate: five things you didnt know about the dragon borns big toe.
Us: .... ( cracks knuckles and neck) lets do this..
*crack knuckles and neck*
Bounty: 1000
There's I'd like to share that could reveal more about the Volkihars. In Volkihar ruins in one room on a tall shelf I found a silver sword. I checked around the ruins for more, but this is the only silver sword in the entire castle. No vampire would use this weapon, it specifically made for fighting undead. I believe it's possible the clan had some conflict with the Silver Hand(or a similar group), in which this single sword was taken as a trophy by one of the vampires.
Just a random thought but a giant crypt under falkreath would’ve been a 🔥 dungeon
Runil's journal was one of the only journals I ever read because I was so curious at what a simple priest would write in a journal
Would point out that Serana, while not using frost breath, does really love her ice spells and casts them with incredible efficiency. :)
Hey Nate! Do you know what those light orbs that follows you are in Yngol Barrow? I went into Yngol Barrow for a mission yesterday but I was left fascinated with those following light orbs.
Trapped souls who have lost energy to maintain a human shape?
Nate, I have two small details I havent seen covered in a video yet!
1st, there’s a Nord NPC in Whiterun named Sigurd who works for Belethor’s store, spending time chopping wood outside of it near the market. This is the very same name as the legendary Dragon Slayer in Norse mythology who killed the immortal dragon Fafnir. Considering the setting of Skyrim, it’s nice to think that there could be another great hero in the making.
2nd, this is more of a glitch I discovered 5 years ago while playing Skyrim. But for the Whirlwind Sprint and Fire Breath shout, you can basically learn two words of power in High Hrothgar and the Throat of the World. Paarthunax and he Greybeards give you the starting words to the two indicated shouts. But if you have some spare Dragon Souls, you can pull a little trick.
After they show you the word, you have a few seconds before they give you their understanding of it. In this time, use the Dragon Souls to unlock the shouts. They will still give you their understanding of it, but they will instead teach you the next word. So you basically get two words of power for free and a more powerful shout than you would expect from the start of the game.
Edit: Make that 3, just learned this one a minute ago.
After Diplomatic Immunity, Delphine directs you to Brynjolf in order to find Esbern. This is often how most people first get to Riften and meet the Thieves Guild.
But if you’re already in the Thieves Guild, there’s a slight change in Delphine’s dialogue and she tells you to ask around the Ragged Flaggon instead.
So I got Oblivion the other day and played it for the first time.... I thought Skyrim had bad/hilarious voice acting and NPC interactions
I hope things get better!
Blasphemy
Well met.
Any news from the other provinces ?
I'm Rena Bruiant. I love dogs. Doesn't everyone?
I really love how you did this video, especially with the tale of Tiber Septim and Falkreath. It was cool to see the Imperial City and interpretations of the characters!
Notification gang... shoutout my Skyrim people
Hey Nate, I really like your deep dives in lore videos! They’re really fascinating to me and help me appreciate the game so much more!
If I may make one small criticism, I think these Skyrim videos could use a little more variety in your background music. I noticed that most of your videos play the main Skyrim theme in the background for the entire thing.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the Skyrim theme as much as the next guy, but I think including other songs in your videos from the same soundtrack, even playing more of those songs through your videos, would be really cool too!
Other than that, I really enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work 😊
vampires do use ice magic. the death hounds also use it in their bites
also for games, i know it's not fallout or elder scrolls.. but dragon age ^.^ it's also a good series.
Bilegulch mine is a former orc stronghold I think. As it the other one I think. Everytime I've gone there it's only been orc mercenaries or orc bandits. The architecture is so similar to the strongholds it's hard to deny.

I just want to know what the story is with that ship sunk under Lake Ilinalta.
The one near Lakewood manor
The best prt of the video was the paper scroll rolling into Falkreath xD! No I really love your videos, very cool.
I believe Harkon may have some connection to the Blades. His sword is a Blades sword with a unique guard. Could just be a lazy design, but this channel has taught me to not ignore coincidences.
In the Falkreath prison cells where you start that Werewolf Quest,
Noticed an awful lot of Moon Light and maybe that's another clue.
If a Vampire were in that cell ye only shall wait for the break of dawn and with wet floors, The ashes of those afflicted rejoins into the elements of Mundus.
Just an observation due to the odd nature and shape of that cell.
Keep up the good work and always love tuning in, So have a great day/night Nate. 🎉🎮🎊
watches the video for a second time: yes, yes i did know that 😎
I would really love if you could check the captions! They're auto-generated on most of your videos, but I watch with captions all the time, so the auto-generated ones can be confusing for me sometimes. I love these videos !!

Anyone ever notice that falkreaths fast travel icon is a deer and the jarl’s crown is deer horns
"Fast travel icon"
That's the hold's symbol, and the deer is what they identify by; hence the antler crown
Isn’t the antler circlet from an armor/clothing mod too? Or am I really that unobservant when I’m in Falkreath?
Each hold in Skyrim has its own symbol, it's also on that hold's guards' shields.

Hello good person who is reading this
Hey Nate good video! I was hoping you could go over the weirdness which is the Strange Vessel in Sostheim in Moesring Pass.
I know it has been covered before and I remember some stuff from Morrowind but I love the way you break stuff down.
Plot twist: Hircine is just a furry that makes people grow bigger and give them claws and sharp teeth but there fur is his chest hair
Maybe the king of falkreath that died in that "fire" didnt die but contracted vampirism, moved off the coast of solitude and changed his name to harkon taking his family with him and Tiber septum covered it up by burning the place to the ground to stop an uprising against the newly founded empire
12:30 look at that strolling scroll scrolling on a stroll
It’s amazing that this game is 9 years old and people still make videos about it :)
Falkreath is my fav hold. I really enjoyed this. Especially the vampire stuff.
This has become my favorite channel on youtube. Man, I was looking for something to fill TES lore ever since shottycast fell in. This is it. This is IT!
Blasko,

@@HareDeLune Fudgemuppet, Camelworks, aye, I have. Thank you for the heads up on Lady of Scrolls. Had no idea about that one. I originally came into TES lore with the Lore Series from Shottycast.

I miss Shoddycast sometimes. I enjoyed how they made screenshots from the game into artwork that resembled storybook illustrations to go with the videos.
Lady of Scrolls uses some nice art, as well, but it's not the same. : )

@@HareDeLune yeah- I know what you're talking about. That painting looking overlay they used. I liked it too. I really liked the original narrator but I loved it when they brought in that older Deckard Cain guy for season 2. I didn't mean anything bad or negative by saying it was to sleep to. It was just more laid back. If you know of any other quality TES content creators, let me know.

Alright, I can think of a few others, then it's off to bed for me.
If you love great roleplaying and storytelling, there are two guys you don't want to miss.
Gopher, who has done Let's Play's of Skyrim, Fallout New Vegas, and Fallout 3. He plays some other games as well, and also has a channel called Gopher Live, where he posts livestreams of himself and friends playing various games.
Gopher is also a modder and mod author. He is a natural actor and absolute hardcore roleplayer. His videos often have parts that are hilarious and brilliant.
Beloved characters he has played include Jack from the Fallout New Vegas series, Richard from Skyrim, and the current character Leonard, also from Skyrim.
m.ua-cam.com/users/GophersVids
He also has a website where you can search his videos:
www.gophersvids.com
Couch Warrior (or Couch WarriorTV) AKA Stu King, is a fantastic story teller. Although I have only watched a few of his playthroughs, they were all good. The original St. Billy series from Fallout 4 (not the livestreams) was superb, and even moved me emotionally. Yes, *that* from Fallout 4!
Unbelievable!
For Skyrim, you can't go wrong with The Passage, about a veteran Altmer being forced to be an agent for the Thalmor against his will.
Stu also has a website and podcast called Character Crusade where he and others discuss roleplaying and storytelling in games like Skyrim, and how you can do it better and more effectively in your game.
m.ua-cam.com/users/thecouchwarriortv
www.charactercrusade.com/#storyteller
If you want silly and sometimes hilarious, then I recommend Koubitz. She mostly livestreams on Twitch and posts highlights on her YT channel. She doesn't post regularly, but some of her stuff is hilarious, if you don't mind her voice, personality, and style. She also has some excellent mod recommendation videos.
m.ua-cam.com/users/Koubitz
Nukazooka has some flat-out amazing live action game-based videos. Check out The Double Jump, Skyrim vs. Fallout, and Sneaking in Skyrim for starters (may not be exact titles). I don't keep up with them like I should, but there are only so many hours, you know?
m.ua-cam.com/users/andrewmfilms
If you want quality opinions, information, lore, alternate takes on how the TES games could have been, and other Über-nerdery, as well as early TES titles gameplay, check out Zaric Zhakaron.

Finally, if you like to play Skyrim with mods, and need some good tutorials, there are three people of note: Gopher (from above), Dirty Weasel Media, and Gamerpoets. All of them have produced top notch modding guides.

That Runil Diary entry was really interesting. I don't read the books in the game so that would have gone over unnoticed forever.
Falkreath has a large connection to vampirism. So many vampires in this region including Falkreath itself having a contract with Half Moon Mill ... a sawmill run by vampires
