It's possible that The Elder Scrolls 6 will address the Dwemer mystery explicitly, just as The Mandalorian may dive deeper into Yoda's species. After all, it can seem strange roleplaying as the Dragonborn after unambiguous confirmation of life after death. With the Dwemer disappearance, however, fans aren't given the same peek behind the curtain, leading to a far more mysterious and immersive sense of uncertainty. In Skyrim, for example, the Dragonborn visits Sovngarde at the end of the game, confirming the existence of the Nordic afterlife.
Some installments in the series give the player too much insight into some of the big mysteries of the TES universe. The Dwemer disappearance is one of hints that there could be far more to The Elder Scrolls' universe than first meets the eye, but Bethesda would be right to resist revealing too much. Discovering that the Dwemer are simply in another plane of existence, were wiped out entirely, or were sent through time as others have speculated would likely make the series' universe a less interesting place.
THE ELDER SCROLLS ALL DWEMER AUTOMATRONS SERIES
It is one of the few questions in The Elder Scrolls' universe that seems to potentially connect the plot of a main installment in the series with some of the series' most outlandish lore.
Whatever happened, the Dwemer mystery has animated the Elder Scrolls community like no other, creating theories that draw on everything from in-game items to the metaphysical lore written by former Bethesda writer Michael Kirkbride.Īs with Yoda's race, the mystery surrounding the Dwemer disappearance is often far more interesting than the implications of any one answer. Others have theorized that the charged soul gems found inside Dwemer automatons could point to the Dwarves' souls being trapped in their own machinery, while others wonder whether or not the Dwemer really did achieve godhood, but transcended Nirn in doing so. It would certainly make sense that the scientifically-minded Dwemer would struggle to accept the flimsy nature of their reality. It is possible that Kagrenac's plan to make the Dwemer divine linked their entire race together, while his own failure to maintain his individuality and achieve CHIM led to Zero Sum, and the erasure of the entire race. Failing to maintain individuality leads to Zero Sum, the erasure of the being from existence. In The Elder Scrolls' most metaphysical lore, CHIM is the state achieved by beings like Vivec and Tiber Septim who have realized that they are merely figments of the dreams of a sleeping "Godhead." Despite this revelation, these beings manage to maintain their individuality in spite of that knowledge, granting them godlike powers.
