Why did an important figure vanish without a trace? What's the secret identity of a certain powerful foe? Who keeps bugs in jars that are sealed with mystical runes? Despite the game's intricately detailed history, there are still some things that fans know little about.

The game never has a shortage of stories that boggle the mind. These types of stories are bountiful in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim alone. Stories that capture the imagination, not just because they're fascinating, but also because they're quite mysterious. With lore this deep, it's only natural for it to also come with a few unexplained happenings.

From the dawn of Man and Mer to the Great War, the series has such a detailed history which helps build its meaty lore. The sheer amount of lore in this game series is downright staggering! There's so much depth in the series' rich history that it's almost hard to discern its stories from historical fact. If games were books, then The Elder Scrolls series would be like an entire library.
