 * Solitude has always been the home for the Imperial Legion leadership in Skyrim ever since their founding. It makes perfect sense for them to modernize Solitude to their preferences when that's where the majority of their troops are garrisoned. Everything else is still speculation, which holds no bearing in reality. You say common sense, but the funny thing about people is that they typically think their personal views are right, and then justify them by using terminology such as yours.


 * What? Did you not read through the lore page that I linked to you? Please read through that again, if you had already, as it discounts everything that you've been saying regarding the Moth Priests and their roots in history.


 * Even if he is 400 years, that's a long damn time, even for the elven races in TES. Why would he have to be thousands of years to not consider himself old/ancient? Especially when the vampires in that castle are known to be quite egotistical. Why wouldn't he know about Harkon's wife, again? It's would be weird if anyone there didn't know about her.


 * I refer you to point one, and only that since you digressed from the clothing point you made.


 * Once again, you don't know your lore very well, or else you would know just how old those tombs are in relation to the ancient Nordic people. I don't mean to be condescending, but you might want to read up on the lore pages at the UESP wiki. If you don't know where to look, I'm sure I can find those pages for you.


 * "I highly doubt all the Nordic ruins are from the time of Dragons."


 * If there's Draugr in them? Yes, yes they are. Lore is established within Skyrim that the art of embalming and re-animating the Nordic dead were lost with the Ancient Nords. Draugr were those that followed the Dragon Priests, and were put in tombs to guard their property, and to be used as soldiers/energy sources for the Dragon Priests that managed to seal themselves away after the dragons were wiped out.
