The Universe of Tamriel
Introduction
Temporal Context
The campaign takes place a few decades after the events of Skyrim (4th Era), as Tamriel enters a period of transition toward the 5th Era. The world is in turmoil: the Empire of Cyrodiil has weakened and must contend with the powerful Third Aldmeri Dominion (the Thalmor elves of Alinor).
Conflicts and Tensions
A precarious peace has existed since the Great War, but tensions remain high. Rumors circulate that the Thalmor are conducting esoteric experiments in the greatest secrecy. Players will evolve in a credible Tamriel very respectful of existing material, while exploring still unknown territories – including the possibility of venturing beyond the borders of the known world.
