One such hidden curiosity is embedded in an item called Sottilde's Code Book.

'The fantastic communities on Reddit were a huge motivation and major driver to search for these,' OccupyTamriel says, 'because what fun is it to discover things without sharing them?' OccupyTamriel also mentions they owed it to the developers, who put their heart and soul into Morrowind: 'Just imagine how disgruntled they'd be if no one ever found their secrets!' In their words, this happened after finishing the main quest, exhausting all the side content, and playing through Morrowind's expansions multiple times. 'I probably started hunting for secrets when the game didn't have anything else to offer,' OccupyTamriel explains. Since that click, OccupyTamriel has pumped over 2000 hours into Bethesda's iconic RPG, rummaging through its most esoteric parts in order to scavenge for secrets that would never be found otherwise. However, the setting, the music, and the lore always dragged OccupyTamriel back, until eventually something clicked. 'I needed a lot of time to get used to Morrowind - the sheer complexity of the world and the mechanics, the invisible per-attack dice roll, and just being lost and making no progress were extremely off-putting.' 'I started playing Elder Scrolls when a very dear friend of mine told me about the series,' OccupyTamriel tells me.

Perhaps the most accomplished of these Morrowind mystery hunters is Redditor OccupyTamriel, who has discovered countless hidden treasures buried in Morrowind's deepest recesses. Since Morrowind launched in 2002, players have been exploring its every nook and cranny, desperately seeking to unravel its most intimately hidden secrets. However, although Skyrim and its predecessor Oblivion are vast oceans containing a wealth of wonderfully intricate curios, their oft-overlooked older sibling Morrowind is a bottomless lake, its boundless depths plummeting into the territories of magic, secrecy, and the unknown. The Elder Scrolls is one of the most illustrious sagas in video game history, which is perhaps why Skyrim has been ported to everything short of a calculator over the last eight years.
