She's not mortal, she doesn't need a warp drive, she can effectively become light and travel by 'stretching/compressing the dragon/time/space-time.' I'm saying you're putting the cart before the horse. What happens at 99%c (regardless of the actual value of c) is the same effect that cause the red and blue shifting, but just to such ridiculous amounts that you end up not seeing anything. The Slower Speed of Light game slowed the speed of light down such that normal movement would cause noticeable red and blue shifts in the visible spectrum observable length contractions/dillations (notice the careful parametrization). It seems to be used to move Meridia smoothly down the rainbow so I reckon that is the warp drive. Proweler I don't think the stretching and compressing is referencing time relativistic stretching-contracting. That being said, the things in front of you would obviously reach you sooner and, to my understanding, they would appear red, red-er. If you are both going the same speed, light would never reach you.

Like if you were in a car and light was another car behind you. If you are travelling at that same speed the light would never catch your eye. If you were travelling at the speed of light would you even see anything behind you? I mean, we can only see light reflecting off of an object, not the object itself. Here's an interesting article about it and the, let's call them myths, about what traveling 9.9999 etc. You'd see a big grey nothing with a brighter 'light' in the middle which would be the cosmic background radiation. That's time travel.Īnd not to pick nits, but if you (normal Earth or Nirn human) were traveling close to the speed of light, you wouldn't see colors at all. It also hints at the speed of light as a constant, unless there's divine manipulation. Specifically how light travels and what it does to space-time. The whole stretching/compressing of the dragon/time/space-time, is a direct reference to this. It's talking about time dilation, how light travels and general relativity. Owh and time travel from the past to the future doesn't qualify as special. I reckon there is one particular band she's take a liking too: With Meridia being the god of living fast, growing big and dying young, what we're really looking at as hear realm is rock concert. However if you could, the world around you would look quite like a rainbow. This may be hard to imagine because you don't do this on a daily basis. Travelling at these speeds makes light ahead shift to the blue, and light behind shift to the red. One that works by compressing the space ahead and inflating the space behind. Seems to me it is describing a warp drive. Otherwise every time Nafaalilargus stubs his little toe we've got a Dragon Break. Gotta look at what it does, not the words it uses to describe it.
