Anyway, the Emperor then dies on board his ship. Maybe Montierre convinces him, or something. Even though his cousin didn't get assassinated the Emperor could still come to Skyrim, but for another matter. I actually thought of this after creating the thread. The only problem is the un-child and Cicero are not the Listener, well that and the option the play has to get Cicero arrested and the Night Mother confiscated by the guards. I've never done the Telvanni quests before and this sounds pretty interesting. The point is that Bethesda isn't going to fill us in on the details. Or maybe Motierre failed to find an assassin entirely but someone else's assassin took out the Emperor. Perhaps even one of the Dark Brotherhood members who escaped the destruction of the Falkreath Sanctuary did it (Babette and Cicero with the Night Mother, iirc).

Maybe Motierre found a free lancer to do the deed. If you didn't kill the Emperor, another assassin did. If you killed the Emperor, then it was you who and the Dark Brotherhood who did it. All that history needs to say is that Titus Mede II was killed by an assassin to give credit to both endings. Given the simularities, I would say that the Destroy the Dark Brotherhood quest isn't the "canon" one.īethesda can still cover its tail though. In fact, both the decision to murder the Telvanni councilors on the whim of a clearly wacky Archmage and the decision to attack the Brotherhood recruiter require the player to be a pretty chaotic actor. Likewise, Destroy the Dark Brotherhood requires the player to make a really unorthodox decision. Still, its clear the quest was never carried out (even if Trebonius actually requested it). But good old Morrowind still gives you the option to, which is one of the reasons its such a great game. I think most players are expected to shrug off Trebonius as strange (if not crazy) and leave the request at that.
The quest is regarded by the game itself as "strange" and is locked behind both the completion of the Main Quest AND having finished solving the Mystery of the Dwarves quest. In that quest, one of the Telvanni Councilors that you have to kill is Neloth (whom, as we learn in the Dragonborn DLC, is clearly still alive). Given the nature of the second Dark Brotherhood ending, I'd place it alongside the Kill the Telvanni Councilors quest in Morrowind. How could they (Bethesda) cover all endings? Would they side with the majority? Or will the next elder scrolls take place so far in the future that the events of Skyrim are hardly relevant? But, Skyrim's civil war is fairly isolated, where the death of Tamriel's Emperor is not. It's neutral, it's safe, and as far as I'm concerned it's an alright ending. The Civil War on the other would most likely follow Skyrim's main questline to the point where the LDB forces a truce between the Imperial and Stormcloaks and leave it as that. How could Beth come up with an ending that could be so vague that it could be seen as both sides, like Vivec's fate? I found out just by fooling around in the first real DB quest. I know that for Fallout Lore Beth usually chooses the good (non-evil) ending, but the closest thing to a 'good' ending for the DB is very well hidden in the game and most people don't even know about it. So, the 'fact' that he then went to Akavir is just speculation in the games own universe.īut, in Skyrim's DB questline you have the option (though it's well hidden) to destroy the Dark Brotherhood and in doing so you save the Emperor's life. If Vivec is killed, mentioning his defeat to guards will have the guards replay with something like "Impossible he's a god" kind of dialogue. The lore then says that Vivec and the Nerevarine disappeared and most likely went to Akavir. In Morrowind you have the option to kill Vivec. Warning: This whole thread will probably spoil multiple questlines from Skyrim and/or other TES games.
