[The Elder Scrolls] What exactly is a Dragon Break, and how do these alternate timelines resolve themselves?
gpt
Dragon breaks happen when the Dragon God of Time Akatosh "breaks", hence the name. This results in multiple branching realities, in which different events occur. They then get merged into a single timeline by Jills, which are female dragons. And in this new timeline all of the events from the other timelines take place simultaneously.
