So we have a similar "dual-mode" time structure in TES, but similarities feel unintentional, to me. I think later writers, particularly in ESO, could be aware of Zoroastrian Aka, & may have nodded at it, but that wasn't how it started.
Thanks for a fantastic review of Creation!
@HistoryofPersia Just listened to your Creation review episode with Swords, Sorcery & Socialism, and wanted to clarify a few things around your mention of Aka as possibly stolen from Zoroastrianism.
(1/?)
The pre-Aka time is what the pre-kalpa time from the Aurbis is. Kalpa is taken directly from Hinduism/Buddhism here. There is a form of time created when Akatosh is made before the creation of Mundus, but it's not clear how this is different from Anu/Padomay's "time began"

@Camelworks Well... Ian only started to be used for the country from 1935. Persia was used in some official correspondence for Iran up to the 1950s, so that one's possibly more excusable

The Selectives Lorecast is going live now, discussing the more esoteric parts of the Elder Scrolls lore. Maybe we'll get more than two sentences into Truth in Sequence today? https://t.co/Zfb8EwvIm9
@JeremyClarkson It feels like that's the model that's keeping Diddly Squat roughly above water more than anything else. Is there mileage in developing "business frameworks" or "pathways" or something that help farmers make more of their produce sell directly? Yes, farm shops are a thing (2/?)
🚨🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨🚨 We sat down with audiobook narrator and the voice in my head when I think of #DrizztDoUrden Russ Johnson to discuss the first half of The Legacy of the Drow series! #dnd#dungeonsanddragons
