I was born 87 years ago. For 65 years Ive ruled as Tamriels emperor. But for all these years, Ive never been the ruler of my own dreams. I have seen the gates of Oblivion, beyond which no waking eye may see. Behold, in darkness a doom sweeps the land. This is the 27th of Last Seed, the year of Akatosh, 433. These are the closing days of the 3rd Eraand the final hours of my life.

when the player starts his/her first conversation with him You. Ive seen you before. Let me see your face. You are the one from my dreams. Then the stars were right, and this is the day. Gods give me strength.

The amulet is shattered, Dagon is defeated. With the dragons blood and the Amulet of Kings, we have sealed the gates of Oblivion.forever. The last of the Septims passes now into history. I go gladly, for I know my sacrifice is not in vain. I take my place with my father, and my fathers fathers. The third age has ended, and a new age dawns. When the next elder scroll is written, you shall be its scribe. The shape of the future, the fate of the empire--these things now belong to you.

So, the cats-paw of the Septims arrives at last. You didnt think you could take me unawares, here of all places? In the Paradise that I created? Look now, upon my Paradise, Gaiar Alata, in the old tongue. A vision of the past and the future. Behold the Savage Garden, where my disciples are tempered for a higher destiny: to rule over Tamriel Reborn. If you are truly the hero of destiny, as I hope, the Garden will not hold you for long. Lift your eyes to Carac Agaialor, my seat at the pinnacle of Paradise. I shall await you there.

Why not? Something has to work. Once, I dug a pit and filled it with clouds. Or was it clowns? Doesnt matter. It didnt slow him down. To be honest, it wasnt the best idea. And it really began to smell. Must have been clowns. Clouds dont smell bad. They taste of butter! And tears.

Jyggalag! He is the Prince of Order. Or biscuitsno, Order! And not in a good way. Bleak. Colorless. Dead. Boring, boring, boring! And not a fan of my work, I can tell you. Hates it, hates me. Youve seen his knights. Not the warm and cuddly sort.

Time. Time is an artificial construct. An idea based on the theory that events occur in a linear direction, at all times. Always forward, never back. Is the concept of time correct? Is time relevant?

You wont help me? Youre abandoning me now, just when I need you the most?! No no. I understand. It is my problem, and I should solve it myself. Youre right. I should never have involved you. Good night.

— Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion self

You said you wanted me to solve this myself. And I am. Drastic measures. Didnt want to, but youre right, it is the only way. Um, no, I dont know the way to the Imperial City. Youll have to ask someone else.
