Entered the Battlespire for my Legion placement trial, extremely naked for some reason. Fortunately I brought a "tunic", aka tattered rag with less coverage than a typical bra, but whatever, I'll get a uniform.
Oh no the place is covered in corpses and scamps. Good thing I have my iron bow with elven arrows, and a nice elven dagger.
Except I can't use my dagger for some reason? I chose iron as my banned material, I didn't think that would include elven ones. Oops. Fortunately I can equip my IRON BOW and elven arrows just fine...?
I negotiated with the scamps for absolutely nonsensical information and a truce. The next room was full of lava, with platforms running through it. I raised half the platforms with a button, them hopped down in search of the other button. Oops, the second button was up above. And it was too high to jump back up (despite taking Jumping as a skill), and climbing doesn't seem to be a thing, so I just sorta wandered around until I determined I was softlocked and took a lava bath.
Then I got rescued but imprisoned and fed well but died of old age in captivity?? What a rollercoaster epilogue, particularly after getting trapped in a lava pit trap.
Battlespire, "An Elder Scrolls Legend" indeed.
Bonus: Restarted to confirm that the elven dagger was banned by the "iron" restriction (it is) and to see if males get an actual tunic (they do). I tried going back through the portal but it shoved me backward, off a railing-less balcony and down several stories to my death capture and eventual death by old age. It even specifies that I never see another living soul - but they're feeding me decent food! Truly the machinations of Mehrunes Dagon are beyond mortal ken.
