Recently released a Skyrim mod that at this point I have put a ridiculous amount of time and effort towards, Diverse Dragon Priests! It adds a huge amount of variation to Dragon Priests including 35 new custom made models, HQ 4K textures, and multiple options and compatibility patches to make sure it works in as many people's load orders as possible <3 https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/105519

Why do we never talk about Forelhost. Why don’t we talk about the fact that Rahgot and his followers holed up in there were literally the dying breath of the Dragon Cult. Why do we not talk about the fact that they fucking Jonestown’d themselves, children included (it even explicitly says so in a note to ‘make room for the children’s bodies’ fucking hello?) That dungeon haunts me every fucking day.
#I don’t remember whether it was a mod or not that did this but iirc you can find children sized skeletons there#genuinely one of the most harrowing places in the game#skyrim#dragon cult#dragon priest#tes

Godwyn's Golden Knights and Lands of Shadow
This is one of my theories since I started playing the DLC regarding Godwyn in the Lands of Shadow using his knights as source of evidences.
So, mind you there'll be several spoilers about it. I'll be tagging correctly, but attention: SOTE SPOILERS BELOW
Since I started finding Godwyn's knights pieces of lore, I got really curious about what they were doing there and why. Unfortunately, we have almost nothing regarding Godwyn, which makes this basically me squeezing it until it makes sense.
At the first catacomb we visit, Fog Rift, we encounter the Ancient Dragon Knight's Cookbook, which tells this
From this item alone, we know that Godwyn's soldiers, who served him in his life, were at the Lands of Shadow, following a Ancient Dragon Knight, which is different than Godwyn's own guards. According to "Ancient Dragon Knight Kristoff Ashes" they were Leyndell guards, that probably started worshiping the dragons after the war, as so many other cases.
In this same catacomb, we also find "Electrocharge" and "Blinkbolt", both of them techniques used by Godwyn's soldiers as he brought the Dragon Communion to the Royal Capital.
I think it's important to see they are called Golden Knights not Death Knights, because it's different and they were at Lands of Shadow while Godwyn was still alive.
Then, we have our first clue of what were they doing there. "The origin of incantations", the first ones his knights would find for the Dragon Cult at Lands Between.
We are not gonna talk about the Death Knights now, so I'll just mention that they are the same golden knights who served Godwyn in life, now serving him in Death. Which means two different periods. And they also can show us what could've been Godwyn's sigil and weapon, that I'll talk in another post.
Heading to the next Catacomb, Scorpion River, we found more evidence of what they were doing. We found Knight's Lightning Spear, which mentions an important detail:
"An incantation that was taught only to the most accomplished knights." Not a mere, common knight that served Godwyn. The soldiers that followed to Lands of Shadows were as important to Godwyn, perhaps, as Andreas and Huw to Messmer. That, then, would be no wonder why they were there together.
So, what it means? Godwyn's soldiers were at the Lands of Shadow to bring the beginning of the Dragon Communion to the Royal Capital. Since it was a technique Leyndell would rely on after the Dragon War, the Ancient Dragon Knight followed them with the same purpose.
But, was Godwyn there? Well, that's a more abstract part of the theory since we have pretty much nothing to work with, except Godwyn's corpse blooming there twice. We know that his corpse tend to appear where a part of him existed at some point.
In Stormveil Castle, we have the Prince of Death's Pustule to tells us why is he growing down there. While in Depthroots we have his original body.
While we don't have any evidence of a part of Godwyn in the Lands of Shadows — such as flesh, hair —, I think the pattern repeats itself. He was a there with his personal Golden Knights. Afterall, he was responsible for estabilizing the Dragon Cult in the Capital.
Would Marika, however, allow him to go to enemy's territory like this? Different from Messmer, I don't think Godwyn had the knowledge about what was hidden in the Lands of Shadow. And the reason I believe Messmer was with him. Not to protect only the secrets, to protect him from the secrets as well. That's why we have Messmer's soldiers and Black Knights inside those catacombs that would also become a grave to his personal knights after their rebellion.
So, to pack it all up. Now it seems obvious what were the Golden Knights doing at the Land of Shadows and why would they return after Godwyn's death. I personally believe Godwyn was there himself, considering how important was the subject, the presence of his important knights and his corpse itself appearing later.
I hope I made it clear enough and that I gathered enough pieces of evidence. Let me know what you guys think xD

The Wooden Mask was created by a rogue dragon priest much like Miraak
Unlike Miraak this dragon priest had no interest in ruling over people see this dragon priest had the goal of overthrowing Alduin and become the new god of time
They created a mask that would allow them to manipulate time however it didn't go to plan
Turns out the mask wasn't able to manipulate time only able to go back in time to a specific time
A time when The Bromjunaar Sanctuary was at its peak
Before the dragon priest was able to adjust the mask's abilities they were caught by their fellow dragon priests
Nobody knows what became of this dragon priest nobody even knows who they were
It's almost like they never existed to begin with all that remains as proof of their existence is the mask they created

welcome back to another (belated) edition of Fic Rec Fredas, where I shout out one of the many fabulous fics in this fandom, whether complete or incomplete, ship-focused or not, oneshot or multichapter!
this week, I'm showing some love to:
Epistle and Elegy on the Guardian and the Traitor by @lathepoquerose
📝 Rated M | Multichapter | Ongoing | 12181 words | Miraak/Vahlok | Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings 📝 summary: "What a fool you've made of me. To allow your hands to take my love and life; could you not grant me one such intimacy?" Apostled as savior, crowned as Solstheim's Dragon Cardinal, and burdened with the title "Vahlok the Jailor", Vahlok has spent nearly seventy years suffering the weight of the myth of the Guardian and the Traitor. Unable to reconcile his grief, he composes a memoir of his years with Miraak, back when they were still Mika and Loukas, in hopes it somehow reaches him in Apocrypha. my rec: I'm a known sucker for anything and everything that expands on the lore of the dragon cult, as well as anything and everything that fills in the gaps of Miraak and Vahlok's relationship, whether in a platonic sense or in a romantic one. with its really unique-feeling premise and theology combined with some devastatingly poetic turns of phrase, this fic does both so very well! not only am I loving following along with Loukas and Mika in wistful retrospect, but I'm also loving the glimpses we get of a grief-stricken Vahlok in light of the "Guardian and the Traitor" myth.
you can see my past recs here, and remember that my ask box is open for your fic recs, too!

Morokei is fathering, and little Miraak is enjoying his morning. There are no doubts about the past or fears of the future; just them and the joy of the present.
