"The Wasted Potential Of Miraak: Skyrim's Final Villain Explained Miraak is the villain of Skyrim's third and final DLC Dragonborn and thus the final villain of the game. He is our dark mirror The First Dragonborn locked in combat with The Last Dragonborn. He is a cautionary tale a man locked in Oblivion by Hermaeus Mora. He's got the voice the design and the stage presence but he's also. Well a bit of a let-down.

So if you want to be a true Nord come learn about the gods true children of Skyrim should be worshipping. Intro: 00:00 -"
