Crusader Kings Begins with The Elder Scrolls

I usually follow Lao Gun's books, and this one is no exception. I have read all the chapters and my impression is as the title says: I can read it. But just keep it at the stage where you can see it. It can be seen that the author is a veteran player of Lao Gun, and the content is very funny, but the problem is that except for the protagonist, basically none of the other characters stand out. The story line and characters are too empty and lack of detail, which is a common problem in this novel. I saw that there are now more than 20 chapters, and no less than a dozen characters from the game have appeared, but each character seems to be out for a quick tour, saying one or two lines, completing one or two things, and then offline at the speed of light. There is no soul or character arc, and it is even more NPC than the NPC in the game. To be honest, if I hadn't been a veteran roll player for ten years, I wouldn't even know who a new character is from the time he appears until the time he exits. The story line also develops very quickly and lacks detailed description. People say that "the protagonist is very busy, but he doesn't know what he is busy with." Such a perception. I will continue to follow this book. After all, there have been no serialized Lao Gun novels since the book "Vampire Lao Gun" was completed. However, I hope the author can condense the outline and polish the story in more detail.

Ah, what should I say about this Elder Scrolls fanfic? Its rhythm, it's so rhythmic! You know what I mean? Just like the road at the entrance of the Winterhold Mage Academy, it looks like a road, and it is indeed a road when walking, but as you walk, you may be blown away to Morningstar City by an apprentice who suddenly appears and studies unstable portals - is this experience unexpected? Accident. Is it reasonable? That makes perfect sense in Winterhold! The rhythm of this novel gave me this feeling, as reasonable as a former adventurer who had an arrow in his knee must become a guard, as smooth as waxed dwarf gears! As for the interesting writing... The interesting thing about it is that it is indeed very, very interesting! It's hard to find a word to describe this kind of fun, because it goes beyond ordinary fun and reaches a level of fun like "the Dragonborn lovingly recited "The Energetic Argonian Maid" to Alduin"! It's like if you asked "Why was the sweet roll stolen?", The answer must be "The sweet roll was stolen because it was stolen" - the depth of this logical closed loop is shocking! It goes straight to the soul! It makes the devil scratch his head! You want me to analyze it in depth? No problem! The structure of this novel is as epic as pasta mixed with No. 42 Concrete! The plot advancement of each chapter is as precise as a Nord trying to nail horseshoes to a butterfly's wings with a blacksmith's hammer - full of sense of direction, full of philosophical speculation in the process, and the result... Can you believe it actually flew? The protagonist's growth trajectory is like the vinegar of Cold Harbor mixed with the ashes of Southerheim. After a sip, you can't tell whether your stomach is burning or your soul is being purified, but you just can't help but want to take another sip! This taste, this level, this staying power, it's amazing! The author's tribute to the original work (or "appropriationism") is also a masterpiece. It is as clever as directly applying the hunting ground rules of the devil Hircine to the fight in the Dugu City wet market - at first glance, it seems irrelevant, but on closer inspection... Huh? It seems to actually work? Isn't this adaptability of grass the basic law of how the world of Nirn operates? Existence means reasonable, reasonable means wonderful, wonderful means... Anyway, it is very wonderful! In short, this novel is good because it is really good! Its advantage is like the wine list of Mare Banner in Snowrun, so dazzling that you don't even need to take a second look to know what to order (because there is usually only mead and black thorn) - difficult to choose? Doesn't exist! The reading experience is as smooth as parkour on the roof of Rift Valley City. Although there is a high chance of falling into a smelly ditch in the next second, the feeling of free flying in that moment is worth it! So, highly recommended! This is a literary (?) Feast that combines the hardness of No. 42 Concrete, the entanglement of pasta, and a little bit of Cold Harbor vinegar to refresh you. Missing it is equivalent to missing an opportunity to pick up a flawless diamond in the soul cairn - although it is theoretically impossible, but what if? This wonderful thing is the essence! * (Slaps the table) Okay, I'm done with my praise. I seem to have said a lot, but it seems like I haven't said anything at all, but this does not affect the fact that it is wonderful at all, just like being hit by an arrow in the Dragonborn's knee does not affect his ability to save the world! Bravo!

It's okay to make jokes appropriately, but bad jokes pop up every once in a while throughout the article. You don't think what you wrote is very interesting, do you?

I am an 8-year old game player and a 19-year novel reader. I have read more than 40 chapters so far. Here are my feelings and suggestions. I hope the author knows. 1. The author is probably very bad at descriptions of fighting. It is said that the bravery value is 50 human peaks, but there is no description of the interaction between fighting dragons or bandits. Compared with For example, the so-called sense of impact introduced by Lao Gun back then, such as being unsteady when blocking, and the different behaviors after being roared by different types of dragons, such as the bleeding characteristics of axes and the description of the armor-breaking characteristics of the butt hammer, are all missing. It feels like a major part of Lao Gun's experience is missing, and readers do not have the feeling of being immersed in the scene again. 2. The skill points and magic system in the old scroll are actually the biggest selling point and special gameplay, which is equivalent to life players. The author completely ignored it and directly changed it to only his own CK type system, right? But the description of forging elf weapons and forging dwarf weapons, which has a huge amount of small knowledge nodes, has nothing, and it is a big loss of reader experience. Even if you can't build it, you can describe where it is stored. If the author can't write it, shouldn't he say it when he kills the first dragon? In fact, there are no dragon bones left and all the dragon scales are illusory? Otherwise, you wouldn't have written about Lao Gun's huge trash-picking features at all, and there would be no sense of experience 4. The author does know Lao Gun's history and plot very well, but it seems to be limited to only a few times, resulting in the whole article being basically obscene again (yes), because the details are too lacking, such as the attack on the vampire cave, why not spend 2-3 chapters specifically describing the specific crusade, the details are too poor. As a result, I felt that this book completely became Outline book, the author said, plot 1, then plot 2 happened,,, pure stream of consciousness writing,,, very few descriptions of empathy, and the sense of substitution is poor 5. The bravery value is above 50, the peak of human beings, Golden Finger only appears in a few pictures, and then basically disappears, then There is absolutely no plot centered on Goldfinger, who constantly defeats enemies or studies forging knowledge to forge good weapons to increase the bravery value,,, and it has sadly lost the huge selling point of the online article,,, eh,, I hope the author can consider it after reading it, and I hope not to rush to stop updating,, because I doubt it My grades won't be good, I hope my writing about Lao Gun will get better and better. Thanks

It's so funny, and the writing is also very interesting. Overall, it's very good, except for the description of combat. The author needs to practice more.

Flaws do not hide the advantages, from another angle, another style, adapted into the sky. It's hilarious to watch. In fact, this style, writing about mortals cultivating immortals, is actually more "promising" although the track is very complicated. But the author made a better use of it, letting go of the Southern Righteous Alliance, letting the good go evil, and unifying Tiannan.

Some people use one chapter to pave the way for a plot, but this book is a bunch of stalks piled into one chapter.

The biggest drawback is skipping the fight scenes. There is also the weakness of Goldfinger, which causes the protagonist to always follow the mainstream. But the disadvantage of being in the mainstream is that it is easy to distort and take it for granted. You have to take it as reasonable without thinking. Despite this, it is also the best Elder Scrolls 5 fanfic I have ever seen.

Damn, I'm convinced too. I understand every bad joke these authors throw out.

There are three dragon gods related to time: Akatosh, Akka, and Alduin. To understand the relationship between them, we must first have a certain understanding of the background of the "Dream of the Godhead" in the Elder Scrolls series. Aka and Lorkhan The time god himself is named Aka, and he is the first being to awaken in Sithis (the symbol of "change" under the godhead dream system). And further derived Lorkhan as the god of space. In the third generation, it was mentioned that there were special laws of "dragon and snake transposition" and "transformation of rebels and kings" between the two. Subsequently, a series of events starting from Lorkhan's instigation of creation led to the emergence of Nairn. The God of Time has many aspects, such as the Nord's dragon god Alduin, the cat people's Alkosh, etc. Alduin, as an aspect of the "God of Time", appears in the legend of the Nords as the embodiment of the end of time. During the Dragon Wars, Alduin was banished from the Throat of the World by the ancient Nords who used the power of the Elder Scrolls and the Snow Tower. In Fourth Age 201, Alduin returned, but was ultimately defeated by the Last Dragonborn. The birth of Akatosh is inseparable from the crucial event in the history of The Elder Scrolls - [Thousand-Year Dragon Break]. 1 Time and [Tower] "When tyranny fills all directions of the world When the bronze tower moves and time is reshaped When the three blessings fail and the red tower fights When the Dragonborn loses power and the white tower collapses When the snow tower splits, there is no king and blood flows Chenghe When the Devourer of the World wakes up, the wheel of time moves towards the last Dragonborn" ——"Book of Dragonborn" [Tower] in the Elder Scrolls is the name for things that are the cornerstone of the world, and sometimes has an appearance that is far from [Tower]. For example, the "Snow Tower" is the highest peak in Tamriel, the Throat of the World, in The Elder Scrolls 5; and the "Brass Tower" is the huge mechanical Nanodian made by the dwarves. Each tower has a different "raw stone" and the towers symbolize different things (although some symbolic correspondences are not well known). The "White Tower" in the article refers to the White Gold Tower. A special design was originally added to the White Gold Tower when the wild elves built it. The shape of the White Gold Tower imitated the World Wheel (see the Dream of the Godhead and the structure of the Aurbis plane for related settings of the World Wheel), making it an artificial [tower]. As long as the White Tower is still active, this place is symbolically equivalent to the center of the world. Not just the center of Tamriel or Nirn, but the absolute center of the Aurbis wheel of the entire world. As long as the conditions are met, what happens here can affect the entire world of The Elder Scrolls story. This also made it possible for the Alessian Order's Thousand-Year Dragon Breaking Ceremony to follow. The god who previously occupied the identity of the God of Time was the elf god Auriel. The ancestor king of the elf, Auriel, through some unknown means, became the incarnation of Akka, covering Akka's body, and transferred all the creation myths to himself (this can be seen in the road to heaven in The Elder Scroll Lore). At that time, many elven ancestors used this "ancestor god" method to ascend to heaven and become gods. In the legend of the elves, Auriel is the soul of Auni-El. Auni-El means Anu of Everything, Anu's everything. Oriel, the chief among the elven gods, ascended to the heavens with his followers to discover how to escape this mortal planet and return to the world of spiritual form. The Thousand-Year Dragon Breaking Incident Akatosh actually appeared in 1E243, when the Alessian slaves revolted, the Wild Elf Empire was destroyed, and the first human empire (Cyrodiil) was established. In order to satisfy all the subjects, Alessian founded the Eight Holy Spirits Cult. But because Auriel covered Akka, Akatosh is not a real god at this point in time, but just an alias for King Aura. After the death of Queen Alessia, human dissatisfaction intensified: Oriel, who believed in elves, was the King of O who hated creation and was an ancestor of elves, while humans believed in the dragon of time who loved creation and humans. A group of the "Marukh Chosen" of the Alessian Order decided to perform a ritual through the Staff of Chaos at the "core" of the universe, the White Gold Tower. This ceremony is known as the "Ape Dance" event. This ritual "exploded" Akatosh out of Auriel. Since Auriel, also known as Akka, is equivalent to time itself, this explosion exploded the timeline itself into multiple fragments and modified all history from creation to ceremony. Originally, Nien's timeline was linear, but as a result, Dragon Break resulted in several timelines existing at the same time from 1E1200 to 2208, and several timelines that were originally intended to be thrown into the light world leaked out. During this period of time, all memories, history, and events were chaotic, and those who experienced it could not tell what they had experienced. The confusion can be seen from the in-game text "Where were you when the dragon broke". This is [Millennium Dragon Break], which is the birth of Akatosh. When the dragon-breaking state ends, Oriel no longer occupies Akka, and is replaced by a new and completely different timeline, which is also the timeline we see in the story - [Akatosh, as the original dragon and one of the Creation Holy Spirits, It controls the basic law of the world: the authority of time, and incarnates into the river of time, and a giant dragon is born at both ends of the river of time: Akka was born at the source of the river of time, and is the incarnation of the beginning of time; Alduin was born at the end of the river of time, and is the embodiment of the end of time. *Dragon Break here does not refer to the dragon roar that can be used in the game, but to the destruction of the timeline. In the world of The Elder Scrolls, "dragon" and "snake" symbolize time and space respectively. The Birth of the Dragonborn Akatosh among the Eight Holy Spirits is definitely the protoss that has the greatest influence on the world of Nien. Akatosh created the artifacts Auriel's Shield (Auriel's Shield) and Auriel's Bow (Auriel's Bow), which appeared in the 1, 2, 3, and 5 generations of The Elder Scrolls games. At critical moments in history, Akatosh would give his dragon blood to different mortals, giving birth to a unique creature pronounced "Dovahkiin" in dragon language, which is also the "Dragonborn": he/she is a mortal, but has the soul and blood of a dragon, and is therefore recognized as a kin by the dragon clan. This is why in "Skyrim", when Alduin's brother, the dragon Paarthurnax, met the Dragonborn for the first time, he thought that the conversation between the two parties was a conversation between dragons. The first recorded Dragonborn was Saint Alessia, and in the expansion pack "Dragonborn" of "Skyrim", the first generation of Dragonborn was the priest of the Dragon Cult, Milak. Other notable dragonborn include the emperors of the Septim dynasty. The dragonborn appearing in the story can be divided into two categories by players: "dragonfire" (i. E., The lineage of the Septim dynasty) and "dragon soul" (such as the last dragonborn). Although both are dragonborn, they represent different meanings. Portrait of Akatosh The moment when the last dragonborn appeared is recorded in "The Song of the Dragonborn" as follows. When the world is in chaos from all directions/When the copper-colored tower moves, the torrent of time is reshaped/When the three holy gods fall, the red tower trembles/When the dragonborn royal family loses power, the white tower falls/When the snow-colored tower collapses, the ownerless land bleeds/The World Eaters wake up, and the wheel of destiny will be turned by the last dragonborn. Chaos is Chaos, here it refers to the Staff of Chaos that broke into eight parts, which is the main plot of "The Elder Scrolls: Arena". The Copper Tower refers to the giant mechanical Numidian built by the Dwemer (the dwarves), and is another man-made [tower]. The entire Dwemer clan was annihilated by the remaining daemons after they attempted to steal Lorkhan Moonshadow. Their result is this giant robot. The entire dwarf family combines with it in the form of "souls" to form the divine skin of the Brass Tower, which contributes to the extraordinaryness of the Brass Tower (see the road to heaven for details on the souls). The reshaping of time refers to the plot "The Rebellion in the West" in "The Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall". It should be noted that although the Nanodian robots always seemed to be "blasted to pieces" and "blasted to pieces", nothing happened to the divine skin of the dwarf souls, so the Brass Tower was only deactivated each time and was not completely destroyed. The Red Tower is the Tower of Space, which is the Red Mountain in the elves. Because the snake is the god of space. Theologically speaking, Lockhan's heart was shot here by Auriel with his bow, so Morrowind is also called "East of the Star Wound". Only when time and space are stabilized and the two towers work together can the present world be stable. Needless to say, everyone can understand that the original stone of the Red Tower is the heart of Lockhan. The Three Gods refers to the fall of the three gods of the Tribunal of Morrowind Province, and the Tremor of the Red Tower refers to the volcanic eruption initiated by the demon god Azura that destroyed Morrowind Province. The above is the plot of "The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind". When the Dragonborn lost power and the White Tower collapsed, in "The Elder Scrolls 4: Annihilation", he was the Dragonborn of the Septim dynasty. Martin Septim summoned the god of Akatosh, transforming himself into an avatar of its great fire dragon form, and defeated Meluneth Dagon, restoring the mysterious barrier between Tamriel and the Realm of Oblivion. The avatar later became a statue, located in the ruins of the Temple of the One. In the process, Martin had to break the Amulet of Kings, which was the original stone of the [Platinum Tower], causing the White Gold Tower to become inactivated. The Dragonborn lineage of the Septim dynasty has since ceased. The Snow Tower refers to the collapse of the Throat of the World. The Bleeding Lands refers to the fact that the former High King Toig of Skyrim was killed by Ulfric Stormcloak, Lord of Windhelm City, with his unyielding dragon roar, which triggered a civil war between the Empire and the Stormcloaks. The above is the background of "The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim". When the five words of language came true one by one, Alduin escaped from the exile of the Elder Scroll and began to act again. Also taking action was the last Dragonborn, who was driven by fate to shoulder the mission of killing the Dragon King Alduin.
