Götterdämmerung: Difference between revisions

* Between the old and new series of ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'', an offscreen conflict called the Time War erased the Time Lords and the Daleks from the universe, as well as a horde of various [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]]. It later turned out that [[Not Quite Dead|several million Daleks survived]] in a prison ship called the Genesis Ark, however, that's still a fraction of the ten million '''ship''' fleet that fought the Time Lords.

* This is a cornerstone of the most fundamentalist elven religions in [[The Elder Scrolls]]. In The fundie basis of elven religion, it holds that reality is a prison that souls are trapped in by the trickster Lorkhan when he bound his fellow greater gods to form the Mundus, but was tricked in turn and killed. In more Man-based religions, it's held that the pre-creation divinity state was the prison, and the mundus is a proving ground in which to transcend beyond the original gods, with Lorkhan (or "Shor" as he's known to the most [[Rated "M" for Manly|manliest race of men]], the Nords) deliberately failing to do so himself in order for all else to "know how ''not'' to fail". In [[The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim]],the Thalmor, a [[A Nazi By Any Other Name|nazi analogue]] that seized power in Summerset Isle (the ancestral home of all elves), is attempting to unravel all of reality in some mad scheme to return to pre-creation divinity. How? Throughout all the previous games, several pillars holding reality together were destroyed or otherwise depowered (Numidium, Red Mountain, White-Gold Tower), and reality was basically being held together by reverence and worship in the first known person to have undergone such apotheosis: Talos. The Thalmor have banned worship of Talos to undo reality.
