[quote=@Inkarnate] I based this on my perspective that in most medieval-oriented fantasy / non-fantasy (and in part, some history) the age of adulthood was much sooner than it is in our contemporary cultures. I know you said it’s not really a critique but I feel like explaining that tidbit might be valuable. Thanks for your write-up, it is very valuable to me and I realize where I could've reinforced my descriptions better such as explaining the nord-elf aspect better. Thanks! [/quote] Oh yes, that much is true, but not every one of them had the conception of adulthood as living alone in the wilderness, either. Finding a job or getting married at that age is normal in the proper historical context, but more menial works (hunting, military) often took around during or after puberty. But as I said, I'm not sure how it'd apply to Bosmer, who are literally cannibal murder-elves, whom I imagine have apelike muscle density.
