This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If you can prove skyrim's plants and animals need sun to survive then his plan is stupid. Otherwise, its magic and theres no sound logic to anything so it wasnt worth mentioning in a fantasy setting.

The falmore adapted to live without sun, humans would do the same.

Also magic might be able to produce UV rays to allow mages and farmers to still grow crops.

Weren’t there plants that grew in caves?

Yeah, there were, but you could still argue that the cave plants still require a small amount of sun similar to real world moss, and if not it was probably a fungus or bacteria that can survive with no light.

This is what i assume the falmer would be mainly eating since they live in said enviorments. Meaning humans could potentially adapt to eat the same diet. Not even needing to use magic to farm as previously stated.
