Fly Me To The Moon(s)

What an amazing find!

Just for the fun of it, I went to the outdoor shrine at High Fane in Vivec, gave up a Rising Force potion, and got the 100 pt levitation blessing. Since it was night, I looked up, saw the two moons, and just started flying toward them. After just about forever, the scene suddenly transformed and I found myself actually on the moon! There were a bunch of Hungers there, wearing hats. They didn’t attack. They just loaded me with 100 breads and teleported me back to Seyda Neen! What a weird trip!

That is weird, but it is cool though that the creators of the game thought of the possibility of someone trying to go to the moon.
In fact I am going to try in right now.

I'll be back....

Hmmz, I put my speed up to 5000 but I never got there, I did get some weird loadings though but I never made it to the moon :-( Were there any specific circumstances that I might have missed or have you just found a rare and weird aspect of the game?

Hmmm... It worked fine for me. What a great chestnut! And those hungers with their bread, LMAO!

I was already wearing my ring of levitation, and I downed a homemade speed/rising force potion just before receiving the blessing. Maybe that made a difference?

It could be the location or the blessing, since it was clouded in vivec I left from Sadrith Mora with a constant effect levitation amulet instead of the blessing.
I'll give it an other try tomorrow (watching the night of the living dead now

)

That could be. Also I aimed for the little grey moon rather than the big red one, if that makes a difference.

@Gwalchmai,
Did you also see those funny-looking ruins into the distance? They were a bit like the Daedric ones but instead of being purplish in colour they seemed to be black and gold. I was just about to head over to them when I was approached by the hungers and then whisked away again. Most annoying! I had been getting quite excited by what I might find there.

i do hope this isnt a fool of the april variety...
might try it later
i wonder if there is cheese on the moon

No!

I didn't see the ruins! I saw the hungers and ran straight to them with my short blade drawn! I'll have to give it another try later tonight when I can play again. I wonder what's to be found in the ruins?

Was this somekind of April fools thing, because when I checked it was already april second for well over 10 minutes

I must admit that it was a good one though I've actually been trying to get there

Nice one guys!!

Okay, well I tried it again (for the first time) last night, and failed to reach the moons. Then I realized that it was an April Fools joke! (but I really did try it out....)

Thanks for being good sports.

Yes it was a good one,
somewhere in the next decade I'm going to get you back for this

If only someone could make a mod that made this possible

Hungers wearing hats... Interesting idea, but that sort of gave it away.

I must say the mental picture I got was hilarious.
