Our. and US/Canadian history..... doesnt do that so much#which clicks in with what i (and others) have discussed before about him and White American Devs. gelebor as a missionary and a noble savag#and like. His Culture (bc no one man will be an accurate reflection of a whole society) compared to (mostly headcanon/fanon) Falmeri Cultur#AS WELL i think his whole elves v. falmer thing speaks to intense trauma and also bias as a result of isolation even b4 becoming a cave her#but thats besides the point.#i dont know. smacks him over the head for using his own culture as a weapon. reclaim it dude be ndn- w8 no be falmer sorry this is skyrim.#the mix of survivors guilt cultural bias racism trauma and isolation in this guys head is so compelling to me i want to vivisect him
