Now let me start by saying i absolutely realize all the research and blowup of these theories was years ago, and ive seen nothing newer than 2015 on it. The event in question these bugs in jars, are found through areas in Skyrim. They are simply different bugs inside of jars meant to be little collectibles, but each lid has a Rune on the inside, which nobody can figure out 100% what they mean. I had a new theory on it though having recently heard something about it, while watching skyrim "myth" videos I recently found and felt were interesting. This is the video in question which I make clear does not belong to me.

I looked around some more and mostly just found people claiming theory after theory and wanting to test to no avail. This youtuber even goes so far as to message Bethesda and receives the answer that there's just nothing to them that anybody there was aware of at the time. I had a thought while watching these, while yes I am really just putting up another theory I'd like you to hear me out. He as well as other pieces I've found on the research used the Runic language Futhark, primarily Elder but the branches of it are used in others research as well. It's theorized through the translation that they bug jars hold a spell for gaining godhood or summoning a god when put together in these languages. Now these Runic languages are in fantasy worlds (the primary coming to mind being Lord of The Rings) used either as ancient languages or inspirations for ones that the creators make themselves. In LOTR it is used as an inspiration for the language of the Dwarves and I think elves too if I remember right. Well, as far as I've ever found (and I've tried my best to look into it) nobody knows what ACTUALLY happened to the Dwemer, the Dwarves of the Elder Scrolls. What if these runes are meant to be Dwarven language and are a spell for attaining godlihood after all. The Dwemer all disappeared while researching becoming godly and as far as I've read and seen they're not dead just elsewhere (probably another dimension) I am under the assumption that it was part of the ritual to "ascend" but due to the incident at Red Mountain caused an undesired effect. If I'm missing pieces of lore that nullify my theory that are for some reason missing from my thought process then i apologize for wasting anybody's time I just thought to anybody still interested in the bug jars maybe this would solve it. It was part of a dwemer ritual to become gods gone wrong and maybe the creators just ditched the idea of making it official or something. There WERE Dwemer in Skyrim prior to the disappearance so I figured as far as i can figure out it could be possible.
