If there are any erors in this, please forgive me. I am a terrible speller and i am not good at all with understanding Michal Kirkblade's controversial wrightings. The only reason i know so much about the towers is because this wiki did a pretty good job at explaining them.

The towers are the eight known structures that act as bastions to hold planet Nirn togeather. The eight towers are the red mountain (destroyed) high hrothgar (in tact) the crystal tower in summurset (destroyed) the white gold tower (destroyed by the thalmor during the great war, i think?) falenesti (in tact) numidium (destroyed twice) the direnni tower in high rock (in tact) and some other tower in argonia that i know nothing about. Each tower is powered by a magical stone. The only one of these i know about is the heart of Lorkhan, which the Neruverene destroyed. If a heart stone is destroyed or the tower itself is destroyed, than it ceases to function.

1) three towers have already been destroyed. If they are all destroyed, than what happens to Nirn? Is that what the Thalmor are trying to do?

2) i thought Talos was the one holding all of Mundus togeather?

3) are there any other towers on Akavir or Atmora, since Tamriel only takes up a tiny fraction of Nirn's surface.

4) If the mer hate Lorkhan and Mundus, than why did they build two of the towers themselves?
