I took a stupid long nap so I'm wide awake so I'm gonna rant about how utterly asinine the whole Enantiomorph bullshit is in context of like. The types of events and circumstances usually regarded as echoes of the whole ordeal.

Cause like...my interpretation of it has always boiled down to effectively the whole bit about "an immovable object meets an unstoppable force" where both sides of the coin cannot possibly exist at once yet do until someone else looks at them and forces the coin to fall one way or the other.

And like...I'll concede the whole Lorkhan-Auriel dichotomy (Nirn cant be both Auriels private playground and also a new place free of the smothering everlasting perfection of the Aurbis) to be an example as well as the Greymarch (the Isles cant be both Everlasting, crystalline stasis and The Constant Terrible Fluctuating Schisms of the Madgod, except it can if you view that ordeal as just being another turn of Jyggalag/Sheogoraths story and that Jyggalag has always been Sheogorath has always been Jyggalag will always be Sheogorath because the idea of imposing such a perfect and unchanging order in the wake of Anui-el and Padomays schism is in itself mad, but that's a rant for another time). I'll even concede the ordeal with Vivec and the Nerevarine and Dagoth Ur, with the caveat that imo a much better reading of that fiasco is the Nerevarine and Dagoth Ur acting as twin observers to the dichotomy of Vivec (and the Tribunal as a whole, and possibly Dunmeri faith too) the god and Vivec the mortal rather than the fandom standard reading. Dagoth ur is the Tribunal devil that solidifies how the Tribunal wants that story to be told while the Nerevarine is the counterargument, that they were just regular mortals who murdered and stole godhood. And when the Nerevarine wins one side of the story ends up emerging as "true", if in a historical as opposed to mythic sense. Everything about the Tribunal orthodoxy says "our gods are the gods of Veloth" while at the same time saying "our gods are our ascended god kings"; vivec themself says "I (an I that I argue again can extend to the Tribunal and Dunmeri faith regarding them and the Reclamations as a whole; as an aside I'm gonna just refer the all that as a blanket ALMSVI from here on out for brevity sake) am the center that cannot hold". ALMSVI is an impossible lie made true alongside the truth, at least until the Nerevarine comes along and forces that lie to collapse.

por que?
