“Why yes, I do admire the efforts of the Cyrodilic Collections to uncover our long buried history. For every treasure they uncover, I feel closer to home. However, I would kindly ask them that, should they find a Xanmeer that has been visibly sealed by the ancients, they avoid opening it. The Saxhleel of old were fearful yes, but the reasons were often justified.”
– Vestige Axeel-Raj, after saving a group of archeologists from yet another long forgotten cursed artifact that drives people insane.
It's fun to see new Argonian lore and environment designs. Yes, some assets are similar / recolors of past Xanmeer assets. But I really love the new textures, colors, lighting, and way of life we get to see through these new setpieces.
On Eastern Solstice, we can go inside some of the Stone-Nest homes! (& As always: hoping for structural furnishing assets from these soon!)

The above image shows where the Stone-Nest Pendulum Antiquity came from! It's animated and has collision, and appears to be the common all-source drop for the zone! So we should be able to make fun courses like this :D
THIS area blew me away! Very "Terracotta Army".
Despite occasional complaints, ESO's fog it actually improves visuals in several ways – one is by creating atmospheric perspective. It looks great in ancient ruins like this.
Inside some Stone-Nest homes:
It is rather dark in them, my low gamma aside.
More of Xor-Hist & other locations:
REALLY want all of these roofed pieces and other structures as furnishings! They're so different from anything we have yet.
^ interesting cargo sleds
It'd be great to get some of these more broken-up pieces too ↑
We don't have anything quite as dimensional as these stone pieces yet – our furnishing walls and platforms are typically flat, even the stone ones. Apart from building in the Stone-Nest style, I can imagine these layered with existing walls to add texture, used for cobblestone streets, and more.
Though, I've learned that furnishings have typically been planned since many months ago, so who knows if saying any of this now is useful ^^; So I'm just yapping and will be glad if any of these do make it in, anyway.
