I just finished my second playthrough and something clicked. The Daedric artifact quests in Markarth - the one with the Forsworn and the one with the house - they're basically the same story told from opposite angles. Like, you're getting manipulated by Daedra either way, and the city's just... letting it happen because everyone's too busy hating each other.
Did anyone else notice how much the Markarth questline (the Forsworn one) sets up the vibe for those artifact quests? It's not just random side content. The whole hold is built on this foundation of people being pushed into corners by forces they don't fully understand, and then you show up and get pulled into the exact same trap.
I'm not saying it's deep lore analysis or anything, just a vibe I got replaying it. Makes Markarth feel way more intentional than I gave it credit for the first time through.
