Talos (again)

[Aroht]

hello everyone, I have read somewhere that Talos is connected not just to lorkhan but with aka and Magnus, is it true?
some people explains that theory with this:

Thief-Mage-Warrior

Aka-Magnus-Lorkhan

Hjalti-Zurin-Wulfharth

and

Cyrodiilic legends say Magnus can inhabit the bodies of powerful mages and lend them his power. He is also associated with Zurin Arctus, the Underking and is sometimes represented by an astrolabe, a telescope, or, more commonly, a staff.

This is the first time I'm hearing about Talos being connected to Magnus. He is part of the trinity that's kinda the whole point, and why he's so damn powerful, but not the "Aka-Magnus-Lorkhan", just the "Thief-Mage-Warrior".

 

[Aroht]

and some say that talos not only mantled lorkhan but he mantled convention itself and thus "hold the world together" (convention 2.0), interesting fact, through CHIM, it's lorkhan who became talos and not the reverse like the campion of cyrodiil who became sheogorath.

 

[Ogbunabali]

Yeah, that's the joke and why Lorkhan was laughing when he lost to Trinimac. He was the one who would ascend through his mantelers to CHIM. And I doubt that because in the C0DA Talos/Lorkhan fuse with Aka, and that's a whole other thing.

The Warrior - Mage - Thief Trinity is a cosmic leitmotif that repeats, rhymes and echoes itself again and again throughout the song of the Aurbis, and it is very fun to try to identify these trinities in-game.

 

[Ogbunabali]

Especially since it's not always so clear cut. Like the Dovahkiin, Miraak and Hermaeus More.

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

That is an Enantiomorph, arguably.

Rebel - King and Observer. Just like wth Miraak and Vahlok before. In their case, the Guardian and the Traitor.

 

[Ogbunabali]

Yeah, exactly. And they are interchangeable sometimes, it's interesting to think about.
