Men and mer, they are cousins. Mer were supposedly created by Akatosh (Old Ehlnofey) and me were created by Lorkhan (Wandering Ehlnofey, that split up from Old ones). When I joked that after Thalmor victory, Akatosh would make a Dragon Break and will reset it all, the person seemed to get offended, saying that is not possible, since Akatosh made mer, he would want them to win. There also was something about ignorance and how bad and messed up men are, that if mer were to rule Tamriel, everything would be in harmony since mer know better, being an Elder Race. Would it be better if a mer was sitting on a ruby throne? Or a beast for that matter? Or would it be just like when Aylieds ruled over Tamriel and enslaved men? Do mer really know better, or is it elvan arrogance? Also, I suppose there maybe harmony, if mer will reshape everything in their own image, turning all men into mer. Speaking of which, there is ancient Nordic myth of how Orkey or Ysmir the Fox, tried to talk Nords into becoming mer. Or was it Herma Mora who did that and Orkey just shortened the life span of Nords, who used to live as long as mer? Also, Atmora is frozen now, with only frozen bearded kings. What if it's divines' way of making back up for humans? Atmora is frozen in time, so it like doesn't exist at the given time. Imagine, if all men were turned into lost races of men, then Atmora would thaw and the frozen people would come back to live after cryo sleep? In that case, if men deserve another chance, there would be a race of men and not just any race of men, but one of the first ones. Oh and by the way, aren't giants are those Wandering Ehlnofey, or related to them? I think I heard or read that men as we know today, came from giants, or might have. And I am feeling tired, I should probably go to bed now. Sorry if that all sounds like none sense.
