Chapter 12: Peace Out!

Chapter 12: Peace Out!

Alright, get ready for the final update!

Let's just jump into the action this time!

Oblivion2009-07-0301-44-01-82.jpg


Well, it looks like I ended up in Cloud Ruler Temple.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-44-05-68.jpg


boromir.jpg
You did it. You defeated him. Then you have it ... you have the Amulet of Kings?

Oblivion2009-07-0301-44-16-46.jpg


boromir.jpg
Belongs to me? The Amulet of Kings?

snails.jpg
That's wut I jest said, ain't it?!

boromir.jpg
So you and Jauffre have said. If it is true, then the Emperor really was my father, then I should be able to wear it.

boromir.jpg
Only those of the Septim blood can wear the Amulet of Kings.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-44-39-48.jpg


As usual, I will pick the second option.

boromir.jpg
Yes, of course. What am I waiting for?

snails.jpg
Fuck if I know!

boromir.jpg
After all, this is my destiny. No man can deny his destiny.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-44-53-00.jpg


boromir.jpg
I didn't really need the Amulet to tell me that. I've known it was true since you first told me back in Kvatch.

boromir.jpg
But it is one thing to talk of becoming Emperor, and quite another to actually be the Emperor.

snails.jpg
Now, you're de damn Emperor!

boromir.jpg
Not yet. Until we light the Dragonfires, the Gates are open, and Mehrunes Dagon's invasion continues.

boromir.jpg
While you were gone, I sent a messenger to Chancellor Ocato. He waits for us in the Imperial City.

snails.jpg
Why do we haveta go dere?

boromir.jpg
Chancellor Ocato is the head of the Elder Council. The Council rules in the Emperor's absence.

boromir.jpg
I don't expect any objections from the Elder Council, but we should defer to their authority.

boromir.jpg
Let's go to the Imperial City at once, before the enemy can recover from Mankar Camoran's death.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-46-45-70.jpg


Now, let's fast travel to the Imperial City.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-52-09-56.jpg


Where the fuck have these people been?

Anyway, we reach the Imperial Palace and speak to Chancellor Ocato.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-56-15-46.jpg


Well it looks like everything is going to turn out okay.

snails.jpg
Don't say that!

Why not?

snails.jpg
You'll jinx it!

Oh come on!

Oblivion2009-07-0301-56-31-29.jpg


snails.jpg
Told ya!

Shit!

Oblivion2009-07-0301-56-40-82.jpg

Oblivion2009-07-0301-56-55-85.jpg


Oblivion2009-09-0913-24-53-40.jpg


Alright, looks like we are heading to the Temple District.

Oblivion2009-09-0913-25-33-28.jpg


Oblivion2009-09-0913-25-48-39.jpg


On the way, we are ambushed by a bunch of Daedra.

Oblivion2009-07-0301-59-24-87.jpg


We finally arrive at the Temple District.

Oblivion2009-09-0913-26-34-82.jpg


Oblivion2009-09-0913-27-18-79.jpg


It looks like we are too late! Mehrunes Dagon is already here! All hope is lost! I wonder if Martin can pull a deus-ex-machina out of his ass?

Oblivion2009-07-0302-00-07-20.jpg


boromir.jpg
Lighting the Dragonfires will no longer save us ... the barriers that protected us from Oblivion are gone.

snails.jpg
Can we cast him back into Oblivion?

boromir.jpg
I don't see how ... mortal weapons may hurt him, but now that he is physically here in Tamriel, they have no power to actually destroy him.

snails.jpg
What about the Amulet of Kings?

boromir.jpg
Wait. Yes. The Amulet was given to mortals by Akatosh ... it contains His divine power ...

boromir.jpg
But how to use this power against Dagon? The Amulet was not intended as a weapon ...

boromir.jpg
I have an idea. One last hope. I must reach the Dragonfires in the Temple of the One.

snails.jpg
But you said dat wouldn't help!

boromir.jpg
You'll just have to trust me. I now know what I was born to do. But I'll need your help. I have to get past Mehrunes Dagon, somehow.

boromir.jpg
Then I'll do the rest.

Basically, all I do is just run past him and into the Temple.

boromir.jpg
I do what I must do. I cannot stay to rebuild Tamriel. That task falls to others.

boromir.jpg
Farewell. You've been a good friend, in the short time that I've known you.

boromir.jpg
But now I must go. The Dragon waits.

We now get the first part of the ending cinematic.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-09-06-23.jpg


boromir.jpg
The amulet is shattered.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-54-21.jpg


boromir.jpg
Dagon is defeated.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-51-12.jpg


boromir.jpg
With the dragon's blood and the Amulet of Kings, we have sealed the gates of Oblivion ... forever.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-47-51.jpg


boromir.jpg
The last of the Septims passes now into history.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-42-78.jpg


boromir.jpg
I go gladly, for I know my sacrifice is not in vain.

snails.jpg
How long is dis guy's death speech, anyway?

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-39-57.jpg


boromir.jpg
I take my place with my father and my father's fathers.

snails.jpg
Damn! I didn't know your grandaddy swung that way!

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-36-26.jpg


boromir.jpg
The Third Age has ended, and a new age dawns.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-34-23.jpg


boromir.jpg
When the next Elder Scroll is written, you shall be its scribe.

snails.jpg
Aw hell! I haveta do dis shit again!

Oblivion2009-07-0302-08-28-00.jpg


boromir.jpg
The shape of the future, the fate of the empire, these things now belong to you.

snails.jpg
Well, dat's jest fuckin' great! Now where's my godamn reward?!

Oblivion2009-07-0302-09-28-35.jpg


snails.jpg
Uh ... he dead.

ocato.jpg
What do you mean, gone?

ocato.jpg
We saw the Temple dome explode, the avatar of Akatosh appear ... that was Martin?

snails.jpg
You're catchin' on quick!

ocato.jpg
Then Martin is gone ...

snails.jpg
But the gates are sealed.

ocato.jpg
Yes. Sealed forever. Mehrunes Dagon and his ilk can never threaten Tamriel again.

ocato.jpg
Martin is dead. But he died an emperor, and a hero to rival Tiber Septim.

snails.jpg
So what 'bout de Empire?

ocato.jpg
This victory is not without cost. We've lost Martin Septim. What an emperor he might have made.

snails.jpg
I thought you jest said he WAS an emperor!

ocato.jpg
His sacrifice was necessary, but it leaves the Empire without an emperor.

ocato.jpg
I don't know what happens now. There are troubled times ahead for the Empire.

ocato.jpg
But now is not the time to worry about the future. Let's just give thanks that we're alive.

Oblivion2009-07-0302-11-26-95.jpg


ocato.jpg
In my capacity as Lord High Chancellor of the Elder Council, I hereby proclaim you Champion of Cyrodiil!

ocato.jpg
And, as a small token of gratitude for your service to the Empire, I have ordered a suit of Imperial Dragon armor made for you.

snails.jpg
Tell me more about the Imperial Dragon Armor.

ocato.jpg
Imperial Dragon armor is normally worn only by the Emperor himself. But you deserve no less, Champion.

snails.jpg
Alright, it looks like I finally got a reward! So where is it?

ocato.jpg
It wil be ready in two weeks. Here is some information about it.

Imperial Dragon Armor is given to the player after completing the final mission in the main quest. As light armor, it provides less protection than mithril, elven, and glass armor. As heavy armor it provides less protection than orcish, ebony, and daedric armor. However, it is unique because it is enchanted. You aren't rewarded with it immediately, however. It is special-ordered and is ready at the Armory in the Imperial City Prison District in Imperial City within two game weeks. The type of armor you receive depends on which of the two armor (Light and Heavy) skills is higher than the other, respectively. If your Heavy Armor and Light Armor skills are at the same level, you will get the Heavy Armor version. Its appearance is similar to that of Legion Armor but with different coloration and patterns.

The enchantments are the same for both light and heavy armor. All enchantments are Constant Effect.
Helmet: Resist Shock 20% on Self
Cuirass: Resist Magic 11% on Self
Gauntlets: Resist Poison 11% on Self
Greaves: Resist Fire 20% on Self
Boots: Resist Frost 20% on Self

snails.jpg
Dat's it?

snails.jpg
You mean I went through this whole damn game and saved this fuckin' planet, and a piece of shit suit of armor is all I get.

snails.jpg
I've had it with this god-damn game!

snails.jpg
I've had it with this whole god-damn cracka-ass planet!

Thank you again for a solid LP. I thought the "true" ending of Oblivious being "uninstall.exe" was especially fitting.

Bravo, sir. Bravo.

Good job. You've suffered for the amusement of countless others. Something to be proud of...I think.

For some twisted self-mutilating reason I too played through and beat this, hoping that at some point, the amazing and perfect RPG of the year that nobody had anything bad to say about would show itself to me. Never happened, obviously.

FYI, I have resized the pictures in the first four chapters to a more reasonable 800x600. A while back, I added some more action to the first few updates, since people complained about the lack of combat. If you want, check them out.

People complaining about the lack of combat in oblivion? That's new.

Well, specifically, people complained about the lack of combat coverage in my LP.

So if the Amulet of Kings becomes absolutely useless once Dagon enters Tamriel, why didn't he just do so as soon as the Mythic Dawn took the amulet?

Did someone submit this to Fark?

I noticed that the views of my images skyrocketed during October and November, and it seems that the vast majority came from Fark.
