The universe of the Elder Scrolls is a vast and incomprehensible place.
The provinces of Morrowind, Cyrodiil, Skyrim, etc. are contained within Tamriel. Far away from Tamriel lies Akavir, Atmora, Yokuda, Pyandonea, Lyg, and Aldmeris, all of which are contained in the planet Nirn. Beyond Nirn are the moons Masser and Secunda - the corpse of Lorkhan, as well as the planets of the 8 divines - Akatosh, Arkay, Dibella, Julianos, Kynareth, Mara, Stendarr, and Zenithar. Surrounding Mundus, the mortal realm, is Oblivion. Here lie the vast realms of the Daedric Princes - Sheogorath his Shivering Isles, Hermaeus Mora and Apocrypha, Molag Bal and Coldharbour, Mehrunes Dagon and the Deadlands, and more. Finally, surrounding all else is Aetherius - the plane of magic - wherein lies Sovngarde and other such places. All of this makes up the Elder Scrolls universe - otherwise known as Aurbis.
In this video, I discuss 5 facts about the universe of the Elder Scrolls that will hopefully help you to understand it better. As always, be sure to leave any feedback in the comments below! :D
