Therefore, according to the record in "Ildari's Diary", after the resurrected Ildari Sarohiri crawled out of the tomb, she went to Frostmoth Castle "under the call of the Ash Bones" and used the inner The mind-changing spell Master Lose cast on her resurrected the Imperial Guard of Frostmoth Castle, General Falx Karius.
Frostmoth Keep was once one of the most important imperial settlements in the Hestan Forest on the southern coast of Sotherheim. It is said to have been founded sometime during the Third Era after the Empire discovered the island.
The fortress also served as the regional office for the Eastern Empire Company in Southenheim, which mined the Raven Rock's rich Ebony deposits. It is also the main link from the Northern Empire provinces such as Hammerfell and Skyrim to Vvardenfell in Morrowind via the island of Hul (Khuul). In 3E 427, during the fulfillment of the Blood Moon prophecy, the fortress was attacked by werewolves sent by the hunting god Hircine, who captured the then Captain Falkes Karius as one of the prey in the Blood Moon Hunt. one. The structure of the fort suffered severe damage during the attack. Surprisingly, Karius survived the ordeal of the Blood Moon Hunt and retook control of the fortress later that year. In 3E 433, the Nords of Skyrim occupied all of Solstheim and took over Frostmoon Keep as well as the town of Raven Rock and the precious ebony mines. After the Annihilation Crisis, the Dark Elf Gray People led by the Redoran family, one of the three major Dark Elf families of Morrowind, began arriving in Crow Rock to settle in 4E 1. Led by Councilor Brara Morvayn, the Dunmer Grays maintain good relations with the Eastern Empire Company, which still runs the town.
There is evidence that while General Karius was still alive, he believed that the Dark Elf Greymen's settlement at Crow Rock posed a threat to the garrison and demanded the Dark Elf surrender. But the Redoran family never responded. During this period, Karius wrote to the Imperial Council many times to seek instructions, but all of them came to nothing with no response.
Eventually, Karius took the liberty of declaring war on Raven Rock, threatening retaliation if the Dark Elves attacked the fortress. In fact, the conflict between Frostmoth Keep and Crow Rock has always been a product of the self-imagination of Karius, a patient with "persecution paranoia" who became increasingly paranoid after the Blood Moon Hunt.
According to history at the time, Crow Rock was still an Imperial sphere of influence by default and was still under the control of the Eastern Empire Company. Furthermore, the Dark Elf Greymen's colonies remain small and pose no threat at all. Time came to 4E 5, and the aging Frost Moth Fortress was completely destroyed in the outbreak of Red Mountain, resulting in the death of most of the garrison, including General Karius. The few surviving Imperial soldiers moved to Raven Rock and attempted to establish a new garrison there, but they were too few to defend the settlement on their own, and were naturally filled and eventually replaced by the Redoran House Guards.
In 4E 16, Sotherheim officially became the territory of Morrowind. The Eastern Empire Company believed that the Ebony Mine, which was flooded by volcanic ash, was completely damaged and could not be mined (in fact, it lasted for a long time), so it completely withdrew from Solseheim, which had completely lost its value, and took away the Empire's influence. Last traces. The destroyed Frostmoth Keep was never rebuilt. The ruins are occupied by Ember Goblins and Albino Spiders.
Sometime before 4E 201, Master Neros's apprentice Ildali Sarohiri entered the ruins of Frostmoth Keep to conduct necromancy experiments on the Heartstone. She succeeded in resurrecting the body of General Farkes Karius, but after two months, still unable to exert any control over him, Ildali Saloshiri chose to leave. The immortal Karius apparently mistakenly believed that he was still an imperial guard. He still firmly controlled Frostmoth Castle and continued his crusade against the Redoran family, constantly sending ash monsters to attack Crow Rock.
This is most of the known history of Frostmoth Keep and Raven Rock.
"So, this General Falkes Karius is really lucky." After sorting out the information related to Frostmoth Castle, librarian Dawn Warhammer Xili couldn't help but sigh: "First he escaped. The Blood Moon Hunt was resurrected by Ildali's 'Heartstone Necromancy'. And he was able to abide by his duties and vowed to drive the dark elves led by the Redoran family out of the island of Solseheim."
"This General Farkes Karius is indeed a rare talent." The lord seemed to be interested in talents.
"Master, do you want to take over Southheim on behalf of the empire?" the housekeeper asked with a smile.
"No, I just want to rebuild Frostmoth Castle and gain a stable foothold on Southelheim Island." The lord said with a thought in his heart: "Or buy Crow Rock from the Redoran family."
"I heard from Master Neros that he plans to return to Vvardenfell after completing his research on the Heartstone and the Ash Monster." Aurella Telvanni's words are obviously credible: "There are dark elves with similar ideas. A lot. Due to the depletion of the ebony mines, Crow Rock has long lost its former prosperity."
"Get ready, let's go to Frost Moth Castle." The Lord has found the best entry point for this adventure.
"As you command, my master." The housekeeper saw the former brave man of the sky again in a trance.
After returning to the New Sword Wind, the housekeeper teleported to the Graystone Castle on her own and retrieved the Black Star corrupted by the Necromancer Marin Valen. The Lord also immediately invited Master Nelos to accompany him.
"This is..." Master Nelos, who has in-depth research on both the Soul Stone and the Heart Stone, saw the extraordinary nature of Black Star at a glance.
"The Star of Azura was corrupted by a necromancer in Winterhold." Wu Chen said.
"Ah..." Master Neros understood: "This Necromancer must have moved his black soul into the Star of Azura, so the star turned into corrupted black."
Regarding the differences and connections between Oblivion and the Mortal World, Master Neros told Wu Chen a new perspective from a mage.
As we all know, the material world in which "The Elder Scrolls" takes place is called the present world, and it has a name called Nirn, which means "Arena". This means that the essence of this world is "a battlefield where gods compete." Surrounding the plane of Mundus is a void called "Grey Maybe". Therefore, the Mundas plane is a limited cosmic space. The area around Nirn is known as the Void Of Oblivion or Oblivion, both of which are the same concept. But when mages talk about the latter, they often include Daedra, the demon god in annihilation. There are many realms (Realms) in Annihilation Hell, which are the residences of demons and gods. The stars that people see in Nirn are the bridges to another world - the immortal light world Yasriu. Or it can be said to be "the cracks of another world in this world", or it can be said to be "the cracks of this world in another world". They exude the light of magic, and the god who first created Nirn came from the immortal world of light, Jaceriu.
"So, stars are cracks and bridges." Wu Chen understood.
"Yes, sir. This necromancer who moved his dark soul into the stars has only one purpose, to escape the fate of death." Master Neros said bluntly: "It is very likely that he has been cursed by Azula. I can no longer leave this black star."
Azura is the goddess worshiped by all dark elves, and Master Neloth is no exception. Therefore, Master Neros is also disgusted with the blasphemous behavior of fellow dark elf necromancer Marin Valen.
"Then Master, can this black star swallow the soul in the ashes?" The Lord Lord immediately asked the key point.
"Oh?" Master Neros was stunned for a moment, then asked hurriedly after thinking about it: "My lord, do you want to..."
"That's right." Wu Chen nodded lightly.
"Your Excellency does have fantastic ideas that surpass ordinary people." Master Neros sighed: "According to my understanding, Azura Star can do it."
"That's good." With Master Nelos' approval, Wu Chen felt more at ease about this trip.
