Twilight Despair 5 wrote: I don't agree with the lore of Dragon Breaks. I mean, they go through so much drama to show off the Elder Scrolls and their power. I mean, Serana in the Dawnguard DLC that nothing can destroy one and even the Orc at the College of Winterhold says they show all possible futures and pasts. So how can there be something, they cannot divine at least somewhat?

Also, I don't like how the Elder Scrolls are something that no one knows its origins at all. Even with the Et'ada to Anu and Padomay to even Aurbis they are called something, gods, personifications, the void. The scrolls at best are called Fragments of Creation. Some mystery is fine, but they make the scrolls so mysterious and unimportant in the lore of the games until you need one. Scrolls are, in a basic sense, cosmic recording devices, developed by Magnus, that exist outside of time and record everything that happens and recalls these records of the past and future to the present where they seem like prophecies. Like the Underking says;

''Each event is preceded by prophecy. But, without the hero, there is no event''

If the hero never actually causes an event, there is no prophecy.

As for the Dragon Breaks, the only known Break that messed with the Elder Scolls seems to be the Middle Dawn. The Scrolls either are unable to decifer the events of such an extreme break in time, or possibly, are refusing to reveal what happened.
