Imo The Argonians did nothing wrong. Slavery will always have terrible consequences and The Dark Elves learned that the hard way. TL:Dr:You reap what you sow.

Also the snow elves tried to kill all the atmoran refugees and failed only in killing ysgramor and his two sons. He then left for atmora and came back with an army to take revenge on the snow elves. It was an eye for an eye situation. Even if it wasn’t completely moral, it is undeniably a justified act.

For Ysgramor, while I do think the pain and anger he felt at the destruction of Sarthaal and the death of his son were genuine, I'm fairly certain his overall motivations were more than mere revenge. Considering his former home Atmora was in the midst of a bloody civil war as well as a gradual deep freeze, it seems more likely that his main motivations were to claim a new home for his people more quickly than merely assimilating peacefully with any locals that were already there. The attack on Sarthaal was the justification he used to convince his countrymen (and likely himself) that such actions were necessary and just. And anyone who's really looked into the Atmorans' conquest of Skyrim will know that this was not as simple as rolling in and killing elven warriors. This was a BRUTAL process. Men, women and children alike were slaughtered and even *enslaved*. The walls that protect Windhelm? Build by Snow Elf slaves. Ultimately, the 500's rampages across Skyrim and Solstheim drove the remaining Snow Elves underground to seek the "protection" of the dwarves. I think we all know how that turned out. There's seeking retribution, and then there's the systematic genocide of an entire race, and the conquest of the region they called home. The Snow Elves' actions during the Night of Tears were brutal and unjustifiable (at least as far was we know), but I don't think their crime was equal to the punishment they ultimately got.

different races have different perspectives. Also a lot more than a few and Ysgramor is known as a hero by Men while a genocidal maniac by Mer.

I loved that in skyrim, The Nords disdain for the Argonians, and me There Lizard hero, thane of all there holds and the most powerful person in the country.

While I do broadly agree with you, the Ayleids enslavement of the Nedic humans was drastically different, as they engaged in ritual blood sacrifices and cannibalism of their slaves. That isn't a justification that the Dunmer SHOULD be engaging in the practice, but simply a statement that putting it on the same level as what the Ayleids did is somewhat inaccurate. Dunmer slavery also wasn't EXCLUSIVELY racially motivated, as they did have slaves of other races, even their own. There are numerous Dunmer slaves in Elder Scrolls 3, and while they're certainly less numerous than the Argonian or Khajiit ones, it is still a practice.

@@Jenn-lq9yu I think the problem here is that slavery as an insitution is inherently immoral no matter how it is spun. And violent revolution has been the historic precident for how slaves have set themselves free throughout history. Both in Tamriel and our own World. If someone's boot is on your neck choking you, you shouldn't be expected to peacefully remove this boot from your neck if the person standing on you has no interest in setting you free.

@@yeetthatmolotov to be sure, that's one hundred percent true that slavery as an institution is always immoral and unjustifiable, my base point was that there are still deeper levels of immorality within that which the Ayleids reached that the Dunmer never did. Thus the original poster's comment comparing the Ayleid enslavement of the Nedic humans to the Dunmer enslavement of the Argonians isn't quite accurate. What the Ayleids did was -far- worse than anything the Dunmer ever did to the Argonians. The Ayleids would ritually sacrifice Nedes, they'd rip out children's hearts and offer them to the Daedra, they would literally turn people into flesh sculptures by flaying their skin and reshaping their bodies. That's a level of depravity well beyond what the Dunmer ever did. Thus saying that Alessia's revolt is the same as the Argonians' isn't quite accurate.

Seriously, nearly all Dumner were at least complacent in the enslavement of argonians and benefited from the labor they provided. Fuck em.

@@user-vc1gh3jp2d your argument is incoherent and not even remotely based upon what I've actually said. I have at every turn said Slavery is bad period, but the Ayleid version was worse than the Dunmer version. I also don't know if I would actually agree that the Dwemer version was worse than the Ayleid version... yes, devolving the Falmer was pretty messed up but there's still a significant difference between that and ritually sacrificing people and turning them into flesh sculptures. There are in fact degrees of messed up. I think the Ayleids hit the deepest one possible.

Absolutely fuckin based. In the immortal words of ContraPoints: "Do you believe you can purchase acceptance through conformity? That is not true freedom, Tiffany; that is merely adding another cell to the prison." Certainly not all Dunmer deserve what happened to them, but the Dunmeri government did.

Zurin Arctus Exactly.

Zurin Arctus no I said i dont care who the thalmor are and that tey are evil

The altmer aren't evil, they're just very, very salty about the invasion of Summerset by Tiber Septim, and they empathize with the various groups of elves who've been genocided by humans. The Thalmor are ruthless but they're not without justification, and the empire is actually just as ruthless as them. When you read on the Empire's methods...

Honestly listening to the lore it's like most of the dunmers problems are caused by themselves

Negative influence? They were protecting physical territory against dragons and new threats. Southern morrowind was likely northern blackmarsh all along.

The Hist did nothing wrong. Seriously, I think that the rise of the An-Xihleel is not part of any hist plan, but a side effect of the drastic measures they took to handle the Oblivion crisis. My guess is that when they discover that the combination of lots of argonian battle monsters and a mountain of daedric arms, created fertile soil for a genocidal conquest political movement, they will intervene to chill their lizzies down. It's just that the Hist live in a slower time scale and their primary feedback is digesting the life experiences of dead and buried argonians. So ... that may take a couple of decades.

nah, the an xileel are a lot like an actual reactionary political faction. they did it because they got tired of being slaves and letting their brothers and sisters be slaves

nah, the an xileel are a lot like an actual reactionary political faction. they did it because they got tired of being slaves lol

@Lord Admiral Spire Anyone who’s played Morrowind should understand that slavery was seen as an essential aspect of Dunmer culture. Sure, not all Dunmer could afford slaves, but almost all Dunmer, bar a few like certain members of the Twin Lamps, felt they had a legal right to own slaves regardless of that. This isn’t a minority thing at all.

@Lord Admiral Spire Oh don't worry, it doesn't. However, due to the nature of slavery in Morrowind, you must understand that any consequences the Dunmer faced would have had to be faced as a people, not on an individual basis.

@@caconutnuts if most of the dunmer did not know what it was to own slaves, then they are just saying that. Also having played morrowind, slaves were only really seen in the telvanni district, they were rare in other parts. Most dunmer did not have experience owning slaves and just felt it was their right just because.

@@waluigi3515 1. Your point about much of the Dunmer population not owning slaves, therefore not being culpable in perpetuating slavery, isn’t convincing at all. Every Dunmer, with very few exceptions, at best saw abolition as an Imperial plot, and at worst felt pride in the institution. Saying they were “just saying it” doesn’t mean anything as a defence, because you’re basically denying or at least minimizing what they themselves are admitting to-supporting slavery as a part of their heritage and culture. Your argument makes no sense. 2. The biggest slave plantations on Vvardenfell were in Hlaalu territory. House Dres is said in-lore to depend heavily on slavery. This isn’t a just House Telvanni. Slavery was the norm in and an important part of Dunmer society, and if you don’t think the game made that pretty clear, then you should go over many of the lines of the average Dunmer in-game.

@@caconutnuts your first counterargument dismisses the fact that many dunmer, such as in the redoran district, have in game dialogue when taking about the abolitionists, they state this (something along the lines, it is not the exact statement): "I am not saying I am against the abolitionists, no one I know owns slaves, but it is dunmer law that we can own slaves". This suggests that they don't not fully support slavery as you think they do, because this is ingame dialogue you can have with an average dunmer citizen, as when I played morrowind I remember having dialogue of something along these lines when in Vivec. So you are thinking the dunmer population in general are much more for it then they are. And your second counterargument, I said that slavery was _rare_ in otherparts, not that it wasn't around. Most citizens of hlaalu are in cities, only rich families own farms for the most part. And once again, it is _ingame dialogue_ that it is supposed to be rare in other districts. Tho, I'll admit I was wrong about only telvanni having slaves commonly found, House Dres does depend on slaves the most lorewise so I'll give you thatm

it was to hard as it left both morrowind black marsh skyrim unable to reform the pact to protect it self from real threats like the dominion

You have the Dunmer to blame for that, not the Argonians. Damn Elves.

Where do people get the idea that the Argonians slaughtered the dunmer en mass?They sacked Mournhold, they viciously attacked house Telvanni and House Dres and then went back to Black Marsh. Infact now Morrowind and the Dunmer are recovering.

@@durshurrikun150 They're still occupying basically everything south of Mournhold, actually. What's left of Vvardenfell and northern mainland Morrowind are recovering, slowly (it's been like 195 years, now), but the Argonians are still there, still killing any dunmer they find in their holdings, in basically a cold war with House Redorran. But this might be a problem of the Fourth Era being 200 years long, so far. All the events are so far spread out, and it feels like the effects are either so slow or just don't exist. It has no sense of time or impact.

@@ElectromagNick Wrong. The Argonians were defeated and driven off southern Morrowind. There are just skirmishes on the border between the two provinces.

IronGrizzlyBear well to a sertenten point it was justified but then it got heckdit couseing falmer and the fact that the dwemer disappeared what left of them can't be reversed yet

I agree but towards the end of the Nord's campaign they had the Falmer of the run, what i want to know is if the nords hunting down the Falmer and actively chasing them to the ends of skyrim was justified. Had they simply fought the Falmer to a point where the Falmer couldn't fight back, but still sustain a stable population, I think that would have been justifiable.

A war was justified but the Atomoren (Nord ancestors) probably went to far, though it is impossible to tell if actual extinction was intended as the birthrates of the elvish races and human are very different. But what done is done, the snow elves degenerated into blind goblins when betrayed by the Dwarves and the Atmorens won land that would later become Skyrim

It wasn't really justified destroying them comply they could of keeped a town of them it would make the story of the elder scrolls could of been very different

Falmer killed off a nordic settlement in fear of them misussing the eye of magnus(not out of fear of the nords getting children quickly, this is what the winterhold questline brings to the lore). And the nords killed off AN ENTIRE RACE, the rest got changed into monsters by the dwemer... nords definetly went too far.

agreed we need more info what i do know is altmer also keep slave and thalmor had some part in the invasion the twin lamp likely got bigger after the degree and help from both hlaalu and empire in dres land it likely the argonian were getting intel from the abolitionists so why would they kill them too

We don't have a lot to go by due to the scarcity of information. However, the widespread massacre of Dunmer civilians certainly wouldn't be uncharacteristic of the An-Xileel Argonians. We're talking about people who went out of their way to attack Solstheim, populated by half-starved refugees, just to "wreak havoc". On Helseth, I agree. While he banned slavery, there's virtually no mention of him building relations between Morrowind and Black Marsh.

You have to keep in mind, the Argonian attack was led by religious zealots and hordes of Argonians basically mind controlled into a psychotic rage by the Hist; there was no logical thought on where they attacked or who they killed, they simply went on a murdering rampage across southern to central Morrowind. Of course, when the lizards finally met armed Redoran resistance, it became clear that the savages and their stone weapons were only good for murdering defenseless women and children, and could do little against a fully armed and armored Mer determined to stop them in their tracks, and the argonian assault became as waves against a sheer cliff face, breaking upon the solid rock of Redoran's disciplined formations, until they were pushed back into the mud whence they came, and almost all of what Morrowind lost was reclaimed.

@@Maxibon2007 What Thalmer is brave enough to step foot in Black Marsh?

@@Maxibon2007 Bro, it's been established in ES5 through books that Argonia is now a powerhouse that not even the Thalmor would want to challenge. They would most likely die from the diseases. There's a reason why the Dunmer never got slaves in Black Marsh but only on the borders.

You're just a peasant living a meek life, and praying to the three good Deadra that your crops won't fail to produce. You have a family, a shack, and some rags on your back.

@@logancaine9616 agreed there on might makes right.

What the hell is an ordinary civilian supposed to do against a master wizard of house Telvanni? If he went up to the wizard and said that slavery is wrong what do you expect to happen? The wizard telling him to f*ck off at best and magically blasting the civilian to death at worst. Think before you damn speak

@@marielenapotts848 The problem is that it is not "an ordinary civilian". The entire Dunmer society was sustained by the use of slaves, and that enabled them to avoid field work. Only a few Dunmer worked in the fields. So the reality is that the Dunmers did not complain about slavery because they benefited from it. Not because they didn't have the tools to stop that. It is for this reason that the thief's analogy does not work, since the correct analogy is: "there are thieves, and their relatives and neighbors benefit from what the thief steals. So they prefer to remain silent to continue enjoying what was stolen."

I've never thought of it that way but it makes sense seeing how intrinsically tied Morrowind's economy is to slavery

Yes... yes, he is... that 'flute' is more akin to what we would call a recorder (in earth terms) which could easily be played through cloth covering the mouth.

A good civilization protects its people, and that's what the argonians did. I think it's a little absurd to demand them to be forgiving when the dunmer weren't willing to be forgiving at all.

@@StefanyDjuba I mean, if you read the original comment, i didn't demand anything of them nor did i in anyway condemn their actions. On the contrary, i said "they had enough of a justification to rally the troops". Nor did i ever to say to forgive AND forget.

You can come up with an infinite number of reasons to hate other people, all of which make perfect sense to you. Whether they make sense to the rest of the world isn't your problem. Which is why there are people out there that hate others for stupid reasons like the color of their skin, or for some other nonsense like not being vaccinated. On the other hand, it's very hard to forgive. Which is why Christians are really the only ones capable of it. We're a peculiar people set aside from the world.

In this case it would've been better "a thief steals a lot of your money, years pass, the thief has children and grandchildren that learn to abhorr their grand's crimes, then family tragedy after family tragedy happens which brings that family in peril only to then have your grandchildren beat up those of the thief's family and steal all their belongings". It's a shame that only the dunmer have means to talk with their ancestors while argonians only bred hatred within their families, a single level headed argonian ancestor could've helped in preventing the genocidal campaign, with only the thick-headed dunmer ancestors still sticking around and causing quarrel in their own houses.

This sumarise it very well for one dunmer mught have seen more than 3-5 generations of slaves across his life time and some of those slaves to be the children of the first slaves, yeah the possible hatred in them would be immerse for their grand parents have worked to the same being and now he or she. Unfortunatly Dunmer got to be the face of Argonians hatred and symbol of near milenia or strife and pain, when they were weak they got bounced.

Elves may not be immortal in the Elder Scrolls universe, but they do live for centuries. It's entirely possible that many of those wealthy slave owners had been around since the beginning of the slave trade and thus owned multiple generations worth of slaves throughout the ages!

I'm betting you've owned a pair of Nike shoes in your life, right? Or a smart phone? Or some other luxury item like that. Luxury goods are cheap in the U.S. because people (including children sometimes) in the 3rd world work in near-slavery conditions. Do you think those people in the 3rd world would be morally justified if they decided they wanted to kill you and your entire family? Because I don't. This is the logic you are affirming.

yes, yes they did. as we learned in morrowind even elves that weren't actively engaged in the slave trade supported it and treated those who opposed it horribly only a relatively small number of americans will go to war or launch missiles does that mean that when we vote to slaughter people that we're innocent of the act? not owning slaves doesn't save you if you SUPPORT the trade me not killing you doesn't mean shit if i'm saying that you deserve to die helseth's proposal wasn't entire opposed...but then it did spark him to become considered a figurehead of the empire and once again put him at odds with many of his own people it sparked a bloody civil war that he won...and "effectively" removed the slave trade..but how long will helseth reign? how many detractors simply nod and go along with it while plotting in the dark to have the imperial figurehead removed? a law without the support of the people isn't an effective law, it only holds so long as you have the strength to beat them if they disobey you and there happen to be 2 very..very effective guilds operating in morrowind that for the right price will remove him from power, resulting in a new king..likely not sharing the same imperial mindset, not being leashed

@@etetepete the Argonians waged a retaliatory war against a people who viewed them as worthless animals to be murdered or enslaved and you want to come in here and defend them? "Oh the victims of countless raids, massacres, and occupations that led to their brutal subjugation are fighting back? Aren't you just as bad as the evil supremacist empire for cheering their victims on as they carve their way through them?" No. However, if you think my original comment is evil, just wait until you hear about the Haitian Revolution. It was glorious.

@@faffywhosmilesatdeath5953 Declaring a genozidal war is evil. Theres no way around. No matter the history.

@@etetepete yeah, you keep on peddling that "both sides" garbage.

Well said.

ACID CAT but not the dark elven children

@@marielenapotts848 oh we do spare the children. Dres, no need to beg. What are we some beasts? For the matter we only hurt those that don't look like an egg.

Both are right in that at the time they had the power to do so. The dunmer enslaved the beasts, and the beasts took revenge. 🤷🏼

Would you like a lizard man to punish you for the evils your society engages in?

Yeah you're right, alright guys, let's continue being slaves so we don't end up like them dark elves.

@@sunlight-sky151 Classic Commie comment

Look up president Ngo Dinh Diem during the Vietnam war. He and his brother were targeted individuals for the injustice in south Vietnam. That stuff happens in the real world

Not to mention how alessia and pelinal are seen as heroes, how is what the argonians did any different?

@@danielshore1457 Both the Argonian and the alessian slave rebellion are good, is this too difficult to grasp?

@@danielshore1457 the ayleids were monsters that deserved everything that happened to them

I don’t O just subtly smirk

SlyBiffrons Yeah dude.

I don't remember any. Is it a mod?

SlyBiffrons It's been a while but I'm pretty sure there are. If not then I must've been playing a modded version.

SlyBiffrons its a mod my dude.. theirs no slaves on the island

Timesweeper 9 you were definitely playing a mod

Exactly, dunmer fanboys act as if they're the good guys, which they most certainly aren't. They're xenophobic assholes with a collective superiority complex.

@@FrogyFan Nothing wrong with a superiority complex when you actually are superior.

Ignoring the racist comment, wow you are both sociopaths. The innocent should not be punished for the crimes of their countrymen. You can't go around killing random people because someone that shares their skin color did something bad. Please none of you ever get into any kind of public service

@@grillmadeofrecycledgrenade3197 The same could be said about how the Dunmer captured and treated them as slaves. The fact the Tribunal allowed it says a lot about the culture.

@@IveBeenWithBruma the same cannot be said. "You killed my mother, I killed you" is vengeance. Still wrong but reasonable. "You killed my mother so I killed yours, who may or may not approve or even know of your actions" is the logic of a truly sick mind.

Wade Dewell tell that to a little Dunmer kid who saw his parents get slaughtered in front of him before the Argonians do the same to him

@@marielenapotts848 did said Dunmer family actively or passively support slavery?

@@marielenapotts848 you seem to be everywhere, slavery apologist.

Ocean Gaming It was the lizards who got their assessment kicked as soon as they well trained Redorans met them. Morrowind sufferd though Dagoth ur, the fall of the tribunal, the meteor strike, red year, the Oblivion crisis and still 1 house pushes the argonians out

Zurin Arctus Yeah, fuck the innocent men right

The_Drop Bear I don't know if meant that the Redoran drove them away but I'm going to assume you meant it. The Redoran didn't drive away the Argonians. They merely halted or forestalled the advance of the Argonians meaning they just stopped them from killing more dunmer. Also worth noting, It's said in the IC and LoS that most of the Argonians went back home after destroying Mournhold.

it's more like scalefags trying to prove that their favorite race isn't terrible. despite their invasion being stopped by an army that had previously faced two existential crises in 10 years, ARGONIANS REAL STRONK

Himajama Or people trying to clearly explain to people who are biased by hate. If you actually try to understand the lore then you'd know that the Argonians were only halted or forestalled by House Redoran which is the only house that prioritize martial prowess and the main army of Morrowind. House Dres, Indoril, and Hlaalu prioritize business, religion and politics. Telvanni couldn't care less about their own race so long as they can keep experimenting.

and maybe use dead argonian as wallets and shoes, khajit as clothing

@@Ren21798 Yes, it is pretty sad. The good part is, the red eyes make up for a good decoration.

Thank you so much! Really appreciate it :)

Sithis approves

@@soeppoes8949 actually no they weren't pushed back into argonia they were just stopped before they could go any further. they kept most of the land they conquered and still hold during the times of elder scrolls 5

@@soeppoes8949 Source? I’m pretty sure Argonia annexed or de facto held a significant chunk of Morrowind according to maps I’ve seen on the state of Tamriel in 4E (seen in r/teslore), so I have no idea where you got that idea.
