It would seem like it is common sense to have skeptical thoughts regarding some of the books and the lore that one might come across.

I find that especially obscure topics might be not always be wholly correct trusting in some books.

An example would Akavir :

they say that humans were "eaten," it is full of beasts, and no elves ever existed there. I find that since Akavir is the historical rival of Tamriel, that there is a certain bias, especially from more Imperial sources. There could be some ulterior motive to discourage the idea of Men or Mer inhabiting there  (oddly Mer were supposedly the children of Elhnofey, whom scattered around Nirn).

There are many more examples of this, such as the case of Blackmarsh, but I want to see what anyone else thinks.
