The first councilor of Raven Rock Town, Luriel Moine, the second councilor Adriel Arano, the elder of the new temple of Raven Rock, Othellos, the Redoran Guard Captain Velez, and the new mine director Clay Seuss Carrelius, the squire of Crow Rock, and the guests gathered together.
Waiting for the new owner of Crow Rock, the planeswalker Lord Wu Chen from the Skyrim province of Tamriel, "the three barons of Snowman, Falkreath, and Rift Territory, and the lords of Ximu and Helgen", arrived for the handover. Ceremony scene. As long as the simple yet grand signing and handover ceremony is completed under the watchful eyes of the three demon gods of the new temple, Azula, Mephala and Boethia, the Lord will become a veritable Lord of Ximu, Helgen and Crow Rock. . It is said that the "Wu Family" will also automatically receive a seat on the Morrowind Grand Council. In other words, as part of the deal, because Crow Rock is an overseas territory of Morrowind, the "House Wu" who obtained the lordship of Crow Rock Town was also accepted by Morrowind's big family. "Family" is the deep-rooted organizational form of the Dark Elves. Although most families are connected by blood, there are exceptions where outsiders become high-ranking members of a certain dark elf family. For example, Hera Road, the largest family in the past, had a tradition of absorbing foreigners into the family.
Of course, obtaining a seat in the Great Council as a family is the secular prerequisite for this deal. In this way, even the Supreme King of Skyrim cannot criticize the Lord for this transaction. After all, it is a well-known fact that there are indeed many dark elves among the Lord's Lady Gisethying. And it is foreseeable that the number will continue to increase.
The sale of Ravenstone to Lord Brookwood of Skyrim was also "a reward for the generosity shown by the High King of Skyrim during the Morrowind Cataclysm." What comes and goes is justified. Really blameless.
Soon, the Baron, wearing the lord's robe, arrived at the square in front of the temple, accompanied by the housekeeper and Mrs. Gisei Siying. Symbolically receiving the pickaxe of the city from the hands of First Councilor Lurier Moine. A historic Old Nord pickaxe. It represents that the history of Crow Rock is closely related to mining. He also received the Nord magic ice jewelry set from the second councilman Adriel Arano, which was made by the jewelry master Hujin Ice Sculptor. It symbolizes the ancient Nords who first discovered magic ice and their love for the island of Solseheim. After that, he filled the stacked crystal glasses with the ember wine donated by Redoran Guard Captain Velez, held the glasses with the councilors, squires and guests of Raven Rock and drank them all in one gulp.
Flying magic ribbons and soaring cheers immediately filled the silent harbor.
The two councilors worked together to hold high the completed sacred "City Contract" and publicly displayed it to the people in front of the temple. Pushing the warm atmosphere to the climax.
Everyone in Temple Square tipped their hats to the new owner of Raven Rock, chanting: "Baron (Raven Rock), Baron (Raven Rock), Baron (Raven Rock)!"
"Master, I salute you." Crowstone Town's first councilor Lurier Moine, second councilor Adriel Arano and their respective families have been transferred to the Wu family by the original big family Redoran. Became a member of the Wu family in Yaoshi.
"I also wish you and the Crow Stone Council all the best." Wu Chen greeted with a smile.
The seats of First Councilor Lurier Moine and Second Councilor Adriel Arano were retained. In addition, the lord also promoted Wendel Severin, the second largest manor owner in Crow Rock, to the third councilor. The speaker of the Ravenstone Council is Master Neros, the wizard lord of the Telvanni family. The speaker leads the parliament but is not responsible for specific affairs. The internal affairs, military affairs, and foreign affairs of Raven Stone Town are in charge of three members. This is also a sacred clause in the current "City Contract". In addition to the fact that the "parliamentary system" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of Crowstone Town, and the governance of the two councilors is indeed very effective, the Lord's purpose in doing this is obviously to appease the people. It is especially effective in quelling the concerns of the Dark Elf immigrants from Morrowind, who are worried about the Redoran family selling the rights to Ravenstone and the entire island of Southelheim to Baron Brookwood in the Skyrim Province.
Of course, the parliament is controlled by all members and speakers from the three major dark elf families, which is obviously not the broadest gathering of public opinion. In order to inject the power of the temple into the council, the lord specially set up two elder seats, jointly held by the new temple elder Othellos and the priest Moira of the Crow Rock Gine Temple. They are respectively in charge of the religious affairs of Crow Rock Town.
In addition, Redoran Guard Captain Velez also transferred to the Wu family and continued to serve as the Guard Captain of Crowstone Town, responsible for guarding the harbor area. In addition, Bujold Fearless, chieftain of Thirsk's Mead Hall, serves as the chief guard of the Raven Rock Temple. He is also responsible for the defense of Crowstone Town's stronghold and Ebony Mine.
Three members came from the two original Morrowind families, plus two temple elders and a wizard lord from the third largest family. The six-person council of Crow Rock declared almost from the moment the "City Contract" was concluded. established.
In fact, since the day they took refuge with Wu Chen, all the council members had quietly completed the family transition. Now they are all important members of the Wu Chen family. According to the laws of the Great Council of Dark Elves, those who betray the family are the public enemies of all Dark Elves. If you want to terminate the family contract, the price is extremely harsh. In a sense, this is almost the same as a "blood contract". Of course, with the strength that Wu Chen has shown now, all the members who join the Wu Chen family are satisfied without any resistance. You must know that joining the Wu family is an important way to become a vassal of Ximu without having an exclusive "Golden Page of Law". Also protected by the law of the golden tree.
Later, at the manor of the third councilor Wendel Severin, the lord met Wendel's "wives and daughters": Tilisu Severin, Mirri Severin ).
As the "conspiracy trio" of the Heralu family, they have no blood family relationship. Even Milly Severin, who is the "daughter", is actually the old lover of the third council member Wendel Severin. And his nominal wife, Tillisu Severin, seems to have acquiesced in the complicated relationship between the three. After all, their little family was just a front for a "family job" to assassinate the First Councilor and seize control of Crow Rock.
The three's true identities are members of the Morag Tong, a notorious assassin organization in Morrowind. And secretly leads the Morag Tong on Solseheim Island. Ashfallow Citadel, an abandoned imperial fortress outside the city, is their base of operations.
It is said that if members of the Ulen family of the Great House of Hellalu died in Sotherheim, they would be buried in the Ulen Ancestral Tomb. The last family member to be buried here was Vilur Ulen, the main conspirator in the assassination of Raven Crag Redoran Councilor Luriel Morvaine by House Hera Road in 4E 95. After the plot was exposed, the MP ordered Verul's execution.
The executed Verur Uren was Wendel Severin, the father of Wendel Uren.
This is also the reason why the third councilman Wendel Severin confessed everything to the lord.
"The grudges of your fathers have nothing to do with you. As a member of my family, you must put aside your past grudges." The Lord saw that Wendel Severin's true intention was not to seek revenge, but to be eager to admit everything and keep the hard-won success. Status: "From now on, you are Wendel Severin, and the Ulen family has nothing to do with you anymore. As for the Ulen ancestral grave in the city, I will also transform it into a citizen cemetery."
"As you command, my master." The third councilor, Wendel Severin, finally felt at ease.
After learning of this incident, First Member of Parliament Louriel Morvayn also transformed the family tomb Morvayn Ancestral Tomb into a citizen cemetery. You must know that Crow Rock Citizen Cemetery also belongs entirely to the Wu family like Crow Rock Town. The two congressmen cleared up their past feud in Wu Chen's family. In a sense, it is also due to the deep-rooted and powerful centripetal force of the dark elf "family system".
As the saying goes, "Every gain must come with a loss." It is also said that "if the old doesn't go, the new won't come."
Third MP Wendel Severin’s “complicated family relationships” must come to an end. According to the wishes of the family members, the Lord made the final division.
