The Elder Scrolls Online: In-game lore: What are the Elder scrolls?

The Elders Scrolls as a video game series began in 1992 with The Elder Scrolls: Arena. The elder scrolls of the title are mysterious artifacts, which serve as archives for past, present and future events. Nobody really knows who created the scrolls as they are described as exceeding both Aedra and Deadra. The texts written on the elder scrolls are not fixed until the events described happened. They describe possible events and every reader see a possible course of events. Once the text becomes fixed, no known magic in the universe can alter its content. The elder scrolls depend on the flow of the time to function and cannot record events, which alter the normal flow of time.
Reading an elder scroll is a dangerous process as it can cause extremely destructive side effects such as blindness and insanity. Even with preparation and training, reading an elder scroll is a dangerous process and every time a person reads a text, he loses an amount of eyesight. The members of the Cult of the Ancestor Moth are those who are traditionally tasked with reading the scrolls. The Dwemer are the only race who managed to find a way to read the elder scrolls without any side effect thanks to a device called the Lexicon.
We mentioned the Cult of the Ancestor Moth earlier. In order to read the elder scrolls, they must perform the Ritual of the Ancestor Moth. The moth priests perform the ritual in some of the secluded ancestor glades that can be found across Tamriel. The ritual does not prevent the priests from enduring the side effects of reading the scrolls. However, they are able to decipher the text, thanks to an ancient form of magic.
