This is a fantastic thread! and I think I've come up with the grand unifying theory about the elder scrolls! The next game (or after that if we're doing seven) will be about the Thalmor's final bid to destroy the towers and destroy mundus.

The game will take place in all provinces but the core will be Cyrodil, Highrock and Skyrim. Because those are the provinces that still hold towers. The player will have to defend them from the Thalmor and ultimately finish the Thalmor once and for all. He'll have to travel all over Tamriel twarting the Thalmor and discovering the secrets of the other destroyed towers.

That page says that there has to be two functional towers. My guess then is that towards the end of the main quest one of the two last towers (probably ada mantine) will be destroyed. With only one tower left (white gold) existence will begin to unravel and everything will go all trippy with things falling apart and Daedra and anomolies popping up all over the place. The player will have to restore another tower, the snow tower at the throat of the world.

It all makes so much sense and it was already touched upon in skyrim! The tower is the throat and the stone is the eye of Magnus. It makes sense since Lorkan's heart was a stone, so Magnus's eye fits the criteria for another. The link between them was broken in the dragon war but it can be reestablished.

When the Eye of Magnus turned up in Skyrim no one knew what the heck is was except for (it seems) the Thalmor and the Psijjics. The Psijjics were desperate to protect it and Ancano as a Thalmor agent was trying to destroy it. In the end it was saved and the Psijjics are keeping it for safe keeping until they figure out how to reattach it to the Tower.

The player will have to convince the Psijjics to help him and will be tasked with reconnecting the eye, the final boss battle then will be at the Throat where the Thalmor are trying to stop him.

All of the side questlines will take place in the different provinces that the player must visit and they will be varied and diverse because of the different cultures and races. All in all it sounds like a great game!

(I also have a theory that Bethesda is searching through all the various forums looking for story ideas. Hey guys! pick this one! and name a main character after me!)
