I always interpreted it less as burning your eyes but burning your actual MIND, something so hard to comprehend that not only are your visual neurons fried, but yoir very psyche is scarred.

You got a good collection.

What a novice, he forgot to perform the Ritual of the Ancestor Moth 🙄

Simple, take a pair of mirror sunglasses and then open it, you might just open a portal 😂

Where do u get that at?

Just summon the Moths it’ll be fine

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

It would be funny if when he was looking at the scroll it cut off and he would say something funny like “ it was just a recipe for sweet rolls” or “it was just a shopping list”.

Ay he going to be that moth priest

just get some moths to swarm you

poor dexius

I better not see you mistreating any of the books in my library-

Playing Skyrim when this pops up lol 😂

Get some moths

Mothman

To be fair.. even the skyrim moth priest didn’t take proper precautions lol

🤣😂🤣😂

He forgot to get the moths

bruh just find some ancestor moths

Get this man residency at the imperial tower

Open it

Close one eye ,surely 😉

Where can I find that

Resto glitch to the rescue

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Just gather like 50 moths you’ll be all right

Bro please play Arx Fatalis and also System Shock 2, they’re more janky than Skyrim and FO3/NV and are smaller in scale but they’re incredible

Yes.

I Was Like He Wouldn’t Be Dumb Enough To Open It……..
Moment’s Later
“Eye’s My Eye’s!!!!!”🤣🤣🤣🤣

💀💀

You are legitimately one of the funniest Bethesdavers content creators I’ve watched ever

I know what I’m doing as soon as I meet Stevie W.

I want one

That got me dead bro🤣👌

😂😂😂

Thought in the lore you either go insane with the immense knowledge or if you can read it you just go blind over repeated viewings

Curiosity gets the best of all of us sometimes

XD!

AHHHH! MY EYES!

Oh yeah, I forgot they did that.

Get a moth priest..

Lmao bro you be having me dying 🤣🤣

Love your content bro im still a huge elder scrolls fan and skyrim especially being my favorite game ever, keep it up stay blessed and know youre definetly putting smiles on peoples faces❤

The joke here is only the blind can “read” the scrolls and you’ll go blind AND insane if you read an Elder Scroll “without an aid” just like reading the Democratic Party platform! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

How the hell did you get a goddamn elder scroll

Lmfao wy didn’t he get the bark?! wyyyyyyy!!!!??!!

they praying on your downfall

Go try to sell it to your local librarian

My Dragonborn rolls blunts outta the elder scrolls

You gonna pass that? 😂

Goober shite

I think you need to have an eldrich soul to look at a elder scroll

Do the moth quest then read it haha

What if you rolled up a peice of the ender scroll and shoved some moon sugar in there?

Jus find a moth priest broooo

Lol that scroll is cool

Nah it’s not that your dumb, we need the real dragon born and your chosen

I legit wonder how many times the people who were near this dared someone to look at it 😂

your skyrim humor is unmaatched love it

Weaponized elder scrolls, the bandits getting flashbanged

have you read chapter 3 yet good shit

😂😂😂

Two word ancestor moths

Nah bro just catch some moths and you’ll be aight

The scroll contains the knowlege that you shouldnt read it

And the Oscar goes to.

Lol that got me looked exactly like the game

I mean hes lucky that he just went blind

He could have literally just disappeared

for cultured brethren and the finest of Skyrim -the greybeards

Bro went blind faster than the vamps could even get him

*hey your the dragonborn right?*
I got this dagger from the autherium forge hit this soul gem it’ll make you feel like a ghost

Me: Finds an Elder Scroll.
Also Me: Hands the Elder Scroll to my companion and double-dog-dare them to take a peek. For science.

Look what you guys did. Hes blind now

Ayo, this elder scroll ain’t shi-

Bro didn’t use the moths

dexicon does it for me

Yea, back when you couldn’t send videos on cellphones, and someone sent me an email and texted right after that said, “Open the video…..hell no after 2 females and 1 drink receptacle 😒….nope

Hell go blind obviously he is an adventurer not moth priest

I was expecting a more dramatic “MY EYES!!!” like in the spongebob movie but this made me laugh even more xD

I’m laughing way to hard at this

Bra why can’t you use the elderscroll as a weapon I mean that’s some permanent solarflair

Use sunglasses.

I miss ya buddd!!

I’ve heard that the extended lore explains, everything in the world is part of a daedric dream and the elder scrolls let you see into the real world

You think a gamer alive didn’t at the very least save scum that **** rofl

Skill issue ✌️

Did you learn the wisdom held within the scroll

Drop a link where you got that elder scroll. Pls and thx.

Every video you make, moves the shotgun further from my mouth, love you!

*starts raising ancestral lunar moths*

“I’m sorry, but I am of no use to you anymore my lord”

😂

Smart man I see the moth priest hit you up

Me actually trespassing a biology center to kidnap a jar full of moths to read a goofy aah paper thingy

So, do a black book next!!!!

I like to imagine the dragonborn opens these in peoples faces before taking everything from their person and their home.

You should have brought the moths man

Fucking gold!!!

Surely ONE of us could successfully read it

have fun as a moth priest

Me scroll running in TESO

Ok, now I need to correct you. You CAN read Elder Scroll once or twice without going insane or blind, but more then that will leave you crippled for sure. Also for those who have not the slightest idea what Elder Scrolls is they just look a blank paper as I remember.

You’re like the only guy that makes these videos that is funny

I found an elder scroll before I knew what it was and looked at like 100 times trying to figure out what it was supposed to do

The end had me 😂☠

I remember the first time I tried to read an elder scroll in Skyrim, I was very surprised at the result.

You ain’t no moth priest. You can’t read that scroll anyway lol

Didn’t have enough moths.

Yea nah don’t read the scroll

Try the special tree

RIP random moth priest went blind looking at a scroll and fell off volkihars balcony

Intrusive thoughts won

Use it

Bro people who have played and beat skyrim get it

Get the butterflies, I believe in you 😂

Shoulda called for moths dingus

😂

😂😂😂😂😂

Open it so you can do neat speed run tricks

Yes. I bet 10k gold you would do it.

Nah bro, I be reading it like im snorting lines 💀

Yes

Bros gonna go blind for the boys 😂

Funniest shit I’ve seen in a second

He really went half life zombie scream

Looks like they weren’t DragonBorn

Haha 😂 perfect

No I don’t think you were born yesterday

Boutta wipe my ass with that thing

Fanciest shit i’ll ever take

Isn’t it simply incomprehensible to someone who can’t read it? Wouldn’t you open it and have nothing happened?

Man rolled a blunt with the elder scroll and laced it with skooma

Bro is not a moth priest 🗿

Meanwhile the Gray Fox casually reads one.

i cant help but wonder if sunglasses would prevent the elder scroll from blinding you

than hire a mothpriest to read it to us

“It’s blank!”

Huh I see.. a TikTok.. no it’s a YouTube short.. a man… He-He’s reading a scroll..? He’s dead

What’s the name of da elder scroll also where did u buy it

Gotta verify if it’s real. You dont wanna be a chump, you have to peep the horror.

Lol

Highkey I can’t wait for es 6.

a random nord steals the scroll. preceeds to turn to ash.

What if the real one in the game is just a flash bang

You look like my uncle clay

“Uuuuugh…. What have you done, dragombo— well myself”

im pretty sure elder scrolls only blind you after long term use and not upon reading them once

Point it at the camera to blind US

Press b to roll!! Dodge the fucking attack!!! Don’t let knowledge deceive you.

Great way to tell if you’re a destined hero or not. Heroes are protected by the scrolls from the effects of the scrolls

I would have done it soon as I got it… In fact I think that is what I did in my first play through of the game

I love this channel

Yes, yes we do. LoL do it

I’m so happy to see how this guy has evolved with these skits and videos LMFOA

Of course just munch a hand full of weird moths and read that shiz

I opened it for the first time when I got Skyrim vr I spammed the open button and actually went blind for a minute

I’m tryna complete a mission just read the scroll

First question I have is where did you get the elder scroll like where did you buy it because I know you’re probably gonna say black reach?

You gotta wear sunglasses

Kid named The grey fox:

Accidentally summons alduin😂

I swore you were making fun of the mummy movie when the American lost his eyes and tongue and was saying “my eyes” just like that.

Should’ve focused harder

I’d open it.

this guy is awesome love the humor only gamers understand

well obviously you don’t just read it, you go to your grandma’s house and get in her closet first!
The Moths will protect you!

All that “dont read’em you’ll go blind” is just a massive plot hole

Bro plays Skyrim a lil too much lol

The only thing stronger than the blinding power of an Elder Scroll is morbid curiosity

Bro, I ain’t no Moth Priest. I have not trained for years to be able to handle looking at an Elder Scroll. And even if I was a Moth Priest, I’d still probably get blinded, just like the Moth Priest in the Dawnguard DLC.

Me at night checking my notifications

There isn’t anything in there and if there is can you open it

I wouldn’t even hesitate. Whatever the Elder Scroll has to show me is something I NEED to see. Even at the cost of my sight.

I mean maybe the knowledge within teaches you how to regain your sight.

Hahahahhahahah legit

Help my guy Consumed the scroll

If you look directly at a flashbang it’ll change your future.

The Dragonborn and the Lone Wanderer/Sole Survivor switch verses for one day

Let’s be honest, i just want to hear the sarcastic jerk dialogue with nazeem

“I must rest now the reading has made me weary.”

Apparently all you have to be is a Dragonborn (or some other supernatural hero) and you can just walk away perfectly fine. You can read 3 in a row and turn out better than a monk who spent his entire life training to read just one.

Gold bro thank you

Did you kill alduen yet?

The words of the scroll only appear to those who are worthy

Show us don’t worry we got are extract from that tree thing and a whole lot of glowing bugs

Well first thing is a mandatory quest to find a not so hidden tree and moths infested with vampires

Ты настоящий дов ведь твой ту’ум даёт тебе силу держать древний свиток одной рукой хоть он и весит 20 кг

I want one

it would be funny for a special attack to just blind some people with the scroll

😂

You forgot the moths

Dragonborn opens it

💥

Wait this isn’t my shopping list 😵‍💫

MY EYESSS MY EYEEESS! Got me so bad lol

Can someone please tell me where I can get one

Lol

This one has got to be top 5 of your Skyrim shorts

I imagine random dudes opening elder scrolls being exactly like Po from Kung Fu Panda when he opens the Dragon Scroll

For every moth u eat the longer u can look at it

Come on just use a healing potion.

😂 my eyes! 😂😂😂

Marge! Marge!

MY EYES! XD

With the blinding of this character, the thread of the prophecy is severed, reload a previous game or continue in the doomed world you have created.

Im curious, is the inside of the scroll written?

You are going to need to get some moth luring tree bark my friend

Your uninitiated your eyes would be fine

Y’all acting like he’s the child not us

I’m leaving a comment

I didn’t know an Naiwa could read 😈

I guess hes not dragon born…

You should still do it for the boys 🤣 we’ve all wanted to look at one

Man, it’s just a really old scroll. If you’re not judgmental about it being old, you’ll be fine.

The oblivion music ❤

Should of went to specsavers

Realistically an elder scroll would be a crazy powerful weapon.

Attach it to your shield, and whip it open when you run into a fight and blind entire armys in one go.

Anyone that tries to fight will have to look at it and then they fucked

bro fr couldn’t grasp the nature of his position in the universe created within a dream 💀

Wait so you’re not the Moth Priest

Incredible…he saw a future with Elder Scrolls 6, Fallout 5, and The Third Entrees of Valve Games…

🤣🤣🤣

You think the dragons ever put porn on one of those things?

Isn’t the canon that prople who can’t understand what they’re reading in the elder scroll, their eyesight is untouched? So that’s the reason the dragonborn can look at them and not get blinded?

Come on guys, he isn’t a moth priest.

Yes

I open them for fun

That light skin stare is insane.

Bruh u should be able to show people the scroll in skyrim

Everybody knows that he has to find and go all the way to an Ancestral Glade to even do the ritual and who’s got time for all that?

Kill a dragon and steal a special rock. If you absorb its soul, you’re good

RIP my guy loved his videos before he went insane and was never seen again 😢

Are IRL moth priests just crack heads? I suggest paying one of them to be a test subject. I really think it would have a chance to work.

💛🤣🖤

Oblivion demands you enter a SECURE AS FUCK fortress to STEAL ONE elder scroll, several missions and intense play through. Skyrim, oh here. Oh and have another for funzies.

As we all would just read it for no reason at all

😂😂 love this guy

They only said reading it will make you go blind. Never what you have to read in it to make you blind if the dragonborn did it just fine.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I’m dieing!!! New favorite YouTuber!!!!

The first few times only hurt, you don’t start going blind until you’re 5th or 6th attempt and even than it’s just going nearsighted

Soldier your way through the scroll with Chim.

– Do you have an elder scroll?
– Yes. Here. See yourself.
– And you say you have read it.
– Yes.
– And what it says?
– The romantic adventures of Tiber Septim
– You are lying..
– Read it yourself.
– MY EYES!!!!
– April’s fool!!

Dude from Dawn star be like.

Moment you realize you opened and read one during the main quest then later need a moth priest to do the same thing because you can’t apparently

Ahh if there only were a moth priest nearby

*Insert Septimus line here*

The Elder Scroll gives you the knowledge of how great the games could’ve been without Bethesda.

Hey uh, I know it’s late but did you see if I would die alone or not?

*Could you double check for me?…*

This guy somehow always manages to make me smile even when I’ve had the worst day ever so thanks bro😂😂😂

Honestly, with this dudes knowledge, I think he’d be fine

YOU FOOL YOU ARE NO MOTH PRIEST!

Hope he had some spare moths…

We want you to pull an ark from Indiana jones

Lmaooo this has me rollin.😂😂😂😂😂

What did it say and mora whats your location

Well time to find a moth priest

Was about to say the hero of kvatch didn’t go blind while reading it but from what I remember is you couldn’t open the scroll in Oblivion

Ah man, this made me laugh so hard it hurt, thank you 🤣🤣

Summertime you should collect moths for a moth priest skit where he reads an elder scroll and guilt trips the dragonborn for blinding himself because he just hangs around the fort and whatnot lol this dude is number one of my top 3 favorite channels

There’s a certain personal charm to the warm uneven interior lighting in these sorts of home videos, accompanied that with the low camera quality and what I think are smudges on the lens and this video takes on a human quality no corporate project ever could.

Moth moth moth

Omg this is amazing ahha

shoulda hired a moth priest smh

Why you open it, great we have another blinden fool, only the dragonbron can handle that

Reads an elder scroll and immediately goes blind “shit.”

Well how would you know its real if you dont look at it. I know your sanity and life is on the line but its a risk im willing to take.

Make a priest read it tell him it’s scripture you cannot decipher

Now go to the throat of the world and open it, bet you won’t

😂😂😂😂

What if a blind person looks at one do they get to see again 🤨

Just eat some moths. Then you can read it without becoming blind.

man i go blind when i look at my math problems on the assignment 💀

Where did you get that?

It’s been awhile since I’ve played Skyrim. So I got back into it and saved the moth priest last night.

Then don’t read it… just look at the pictures.

This N’wah is my favorite Redguard.

I mean, seeing it just *once* wouldn’t cause him to go blind. Probably.

I’m just saying, Moth Priests can get a good several readings in before their vision starts to really go.

😂😂😂😂 me eyes

That one fish from SpongeBob

MY EYESSSSS

What even is an elder scroll?

(Insert in-depth Elder Scrolls lore explanation here)

😂🤣😆

🤣🤣😅😅🤣😅😅😆

Looking at it requires some sort of ritual, I mean, it is obvious you can’t just look at it. Lol

Bro be joining the moth priest 😂

I stg the dragonborn has the strongest plot armor I have ever seen he casually reads elderscrolls without going blind makes packs with almost every dadric prince with no preprocutions at all and gets up after being stabbed in the heart by Mercer like it never happened

One has to understand the scrolls to suffer the consequences. Uneducated commoners don’t go blind from looking inside them. this was told in the “effects of the elder scrolls” book urag gives you during the main quest.

Should have gotten the moths.

Yea I just occasionally open them to confirm how op I am in front of a moth priest

* not just open it

READ IT lol

*laughs in moth priest*

No seriously I want to see what it looks like

he’s not a mothpreist or some shi

Dang we will get him next time

“Yall think I was born yesterday” proceeds to open it

To get the same effect of seeing an unguaranteed potential they could all just chug skooma.

Just don’t look up or down, you’ll still be blind, but you won’t go insane.

Hey thanks for being a bro and not flashing us with the scroll. Way to take one for the team! 😄

Oh cool, you ascended from Nightingale to Moth Priest

In all fairness you do look like an aspiring Moth Priest

THX sound effect full volume but visual

The goofy camera angles look like they came right out of an Xbox 360

My good sir we just need the lexicon and some of every elf blood type. Then we can read that elder scroll.

And that’s why the dragonrend was lost to history

“Dang really thought he was the dragon born well on to the next one”

😂😂😂😂😂😂

At least you won’t see the Dark Brotherhood coming… 😂

Opens elder scoll goes half brain dead and blind

spoiler:
it’s a drawing of dickbutt

I wish Skyrim had more NPCs absolutely methed out on elder scrolls

You should do some comical spin offs like, the elder scroll teaches you to be a better chef than Ramsay but, you’re blind. None of the NPC’s know what the hell you’re talking about because you just learned how to be a chef… from another realm.

But here’s a question would you rather real life live in Skyrim or real-life live in fallout…?

MY EYES!

Flash bang +

I got this new shit from the island of Solstheim… You ever heard of The Black Books… shit will send you to another plane of existence!

Let Nazeem read it

Tried to set you up for failure 🤣🤣🤣

You should do the dawnguard drama

Well be happy you have it now. You’ll probably try to show it off to some new buds in a decade or two and then you find out that it’s just gone.

First thing I want to do is testing it wether it’s really indestructible.

Hey I got a mothpriest in my dungeon if you want him . His blood taste pretty bad and now he is just takeing up space.

Kun Fu Panda: “there is no secret ingredient”

Skooma ain’t enough anymore. My dragonborn takes rips off the elder scrolls and trips balls for a second

Guys we need a moth priest for these kinds of things

Id probably go mad like septimus signis 🤣

Bro had me dying over here. My pals were looking at me like I am crazy till I showed them

the moth priest when I force them to read every elder scroll I find at once to see what happens

Thanks for all the effort you put into these skits man. Your content is top tier.👌

you can just take a picture of it to read its contents, no need to get blind.

it’s been a while since my last crusade but sadly I must ask now, since I’ve been brought back to the saddle. WHERE IS MF DOOM ??? He has been missing for far too long and you release this jibber jabber ? It is obvious your tomfoolery is only a guise over your guilt. Speak or else we shall ride towards your stronghold 400 men strong and lay siege to all that you hold sacred.

you could like use technology like the the dwemer.

We’re did u get it

ok but what does it say

It’s on the norse mythology shit yet Odin kept one of his eyes lmfao bro turned to the fish from spongebob

Your my favorite creator on the internet right now. You bring joy to my life in ways I can’t even explain. 🙏🙏🙏

Looking at all possible futures and pasts can scramble your grey matter

No Plot Armor? 🤨

“The first thing you want me to do is look at it?”
No. No no no…of course not…..first you have to open it.😂

Probably should close it

Careful bro you almost showed it to the camera. Not cool man!

Aw shit lol almost made me drowned on my drink lol

They got The Hub on that scroll. That’s why he blind 😂

Lmao the consequences of reading an elder scroll ahahah

He gave his sight for the funnies. Commendable.

Pov: 0.02 seconds of reading it

He has received the knowledge of the old ones
The price is his eyes

It’s just a prank bro

Open it

Do it again

Just do it what if that fucking dragon comes back

Yes, the first thing you ALWAYS do is look at the elder Scroll. So what if I lose my sight, not much to look at in this world anymore. At least I get to know some cosmic secret / secrets

Now do it again

Imagine not reading it but using it to roll up a fatty. CHIM speedrun

With the insight of the Elder Scroll, you gained the knowledge of the whereabout of the other sock that keeps missing from the washing machine.

Naiwal you know what I like about you man, your jokes and sketches are never over the top, like you know when a joke lands and you leave it.

Like you should of with that danm scroll!

Thank you for your sacrifice! The thieves guild can finally be returned to its former glory before the cowl was stolen, Alduin can be cast into the future, and the sun can finally be blocked out

Here’s a little money for the eye surgery. Did you see anything cool at least?

Ok after a dozen or two loops the laughter stopped and the existential thoughts started up again and now I’m debating with myself whether one could view an elder scroll through like a mirror or a tiktok
