hmmm...
rethinking mainquest.....
3 objectives...
1. show the burst of the tensions leading to war
2. the end of the Temple as we know it and the birth of the new
3. the uprisings of the 6th House
so the Atronach quests are a foreshadowing of both the Great House War and the Temple
the Helseth quests will be a factor leading to the Great House War...
then of course the Great House War itself...
then I think there should be a Temple thing...
maybe this is the new timeline?
Relative stability, tensions present as always but not sparking large conflict
Atronach mini-MQ questline
tensions rise, riots break out, raiding and political intrigue
Helseth mini-MQ questline
guild wars (ie. Cammona vs. Thieves; Telvanni vs. Mages; DBhood vs. Morag)
open war breaks out, Vvardenfell is ravaged by fierce struggle
Great House War MQ
the fierce war ends on a stalemate,
1 of 3 factions has the upper hand but no one is the victor
'losers' resist although confined to towns
(conclusion of Great House War)
Temple realizes it must fulfill its role as the unifying aspect of Dunmer life
and must end the struggle before it reignites all over Morrowind
Temple / 6th House Mquests
siezing its chance, the 6th House re-emerges and stages an uprising
Temple vs. 6th House
of course... this may be too long...
the two mini-MQs are basically short but elaborate quest-lines... hardly larger than any minor faction's
the Great House War will be big but have little consequence aside from deaths
the Temple must act, but the 6th House is rising
of course in this one you chose your side, Temple or 6th House
if you are sixth House it is likely you still can be in the Great House war since your outside affiliations might lead you to be on 1 of 3 sides...
my vision for the mainquests was to show to Temple rising up to set things right and to adapt to the new changes... because of the Temple's slow loss of control, Imperials are in charge and helping to get the House affairs get out of hand, political intrigue unchecked, and then war
the point of the MQ is to show the Temple and how it will change... the Great House War is a by product of it all
