Lore Editor Posts: 2,960 Group: Team Member #266 Joined: March 1, 2008	http://imperial-library.info/obscure_text/vehk_teaching.shtml#7 I won't give it to you straight up. You've got to find out on your own. It's funner that way.

If you have more of it, you don't need less of it. You need it to get it, and you certainly need it to get more of it. But if you don't already have any of it to begin with, you can't get any of it to get started, which means you really have no idea how to get it in the first place, do you? You can share it, sure; you can even stockpile it if you like, but you can't fake it. Wanting it, needing it, wishing for it...the point is, if you've never had any of it--ever--people just seem to know.

Forum Mom Posts: 3,916 Group: Member Member #129 Joined: December 21, 2007	Man I miss IM too. And did everyone see that Paws was back a bit before Christmas? Not to go offtopic, I will quote Mortazo, who is a proud Daggerfall lover in his take on CHIM from a discussion about it at BGSF: "I would say Dragon Breaks are in reality the equivalent, as the concept of a Dragon break was created in Morrowind to allow them to retcon out parts of Daggerfall they didn't like. " Both are rather unfathomable to me but I think I have not read enough ingame books on either subject yet. I wish IM were here to steer our passage through the Lessons of Vivec .. I have a feeling that a greater understanding of CHIM lives in there.
