When talking about the Velos Mountains that straddle the border between East Skyrim and Morrowind, one has to mention the saint Velos, also known as the Pilgrim Velos. The father of the dark elves, "Lives of the Saints" compiled by the Tribunal Temple, records that one of the Ten Saints led his people to rebel from Summerset Island and migrate to Resda with the help of the Daedra Demon God. English (Resdayn, the ancient name of the province of Morrowind). Before the elf culture was formed, the ethnic group was referred to by its name Velos. He led or witnessed a series of changes from high elves to elves.
As the most famous and respected of the Dunmer saints, Saint Veloth, who lived on Summerset Island in the middle and late Mythic Era, wanted to seek a more ascetic and pure lifestyle for him and his followers. So they were gathered together and began a grand pilgrimage from the southwest to the northeast of Tamriel. According to the literature of the time, Velos led his followers to Risdayin with only a small boat, rations and a strong soul.
His grand pilgrimage to the New World overseas and the establishment of persevering values overcame numerous obstacles and ultimately achieved great success. The race of "Changing Elves" ushered in a period of highly developed civilization known as the Golden Age. Here, Veloth's guidance shaped generations of stonemasons, architects, priests, and ordinary people. Although Veloth wields a powerful war hammer - "The Judgment of Veloth", he is recognized as a peace-loving saint with a scholarly temperament. That the Dark Elf's healing magic is named after him certainly proves this.
Veloth's power as a prophet is unquestionable, but his conservative tenets of Dunmer ancestral worship are questionable, as he has personally begun worshiping the "Daedric Good God" before the Tribunal arrives. Veloth's followers trust him so much that even if he is cursed to become a dark elf, his influence will be felt for generations to come. The legacy of this elven mentor can still be felt among those who hike through the Veloth Mountains in southeastern Skyrim that bear his name. Many older believers still refer to their race as Veloth.
It is said that there was a period of despair (Great Despair) before Saint Velos and his people arrived in the new world of Resday. For many weeks the men climbed the great mountains, led by Velos. Many changelings consider this a foolish path and choose to give up, but the vast majority of them are still driven by Veloth's unwavering commitment.
Finally, after climbing over countless frozen peaks, they embarked on a road. From a distance, it looks like a huge scar in the mountains covered with ice and snow. Velos inspires the believer to move forward in pursuit of the Promised Land of his dreams. He claimed to have seen a giant eagle in the sky and swore that the eagle would lead the elves to their new home. They struggled on the road and were eventually blocked by a huge wall of ice.
Just as everyone was crying in despair in front of the ice wall, a powerful voice sounded from the mountain: "Who are you and why are you here?"
"We are homeless," Willows responded to the mountain.
Immediately after, a young woman (the demon Boethea) came out of the ice wall.
"Who are you?" Willows asked.
"I am a friend of the Elf. If you are willing to accept my challenge, I will lead you to your homeland. I ask for your sacrifice, Velos. Swear that you will become a better Elf." The young woman said with obvious kindness. .
Veloth raised his mighty warhammer and declared: "I will never again wield it or any other weapon just to kill my enemies. I have given my heart to my people, but now I will give them more. I will ( Dedicate your life and soul to them."
The woman turned and waved at the ice wall. It melts instantly. Beyond the ice wall lies an alien land of fungi and ash (Morrowind). She turned around and strode forward, followed closely by the changeling.
"We are home," Velos announced to his followers: "This is the anvil that will forge a new era. One journey ends here, but another has just begun."
After reading "The Story of Saint Veloth's Journey", the lord expressed his deep appreciation for the man who led the elves out of Summerset Island, crossed the entire continent of Tamriel, and crossed the Veloth Mountains in the east of Skyrim to arrive in Morrowind Province. Saints, have a deeper understanding.
Especially at the end of the story, Boethiah transformed into a young woman and called herself "Friend of Dunmer", asking Veloth to make sacrifices for his people. Velos put down the Hammer of Judgment in his hand, vowed not to use the Hammer of Judgment or any weapon to kill the enemy again, and promised to dedicate his life and soul to the people. In this way, they followed the "Friends of the Dunmer" to Resday, ending their journey and opening a new chapter. In the eyes of the lord, this meaning of sacrifice is very much like the echo of Lockhan's heartfelt words, sacrificing himself in order to stabilize the overall situation. As for Veloth's Hammer of Judgment, it has been sealed in the Tribunal Temple during the Second Era, and once became one of the three-party tokens of the "Ebonheart Pact" alliance. Therefore, it should not be in the hands of Velos before this, just like his previous vow to "put down the butcher knife and become a saint immediately".
In other words, his story is very similar to that of Moses, another saint in the real world, and his Exodus. Therefore, players also call Velos "Moses of Tamriel".
Before the three living gods of the Tribunal ascended to heaven violently without stealing Lorkhan's heart, the Chimer elves of Morrowind believed that Azura was their ancestor elf. They believed that they were degenerated from gods, so they called the demon god The ancestors, as one of the "Altmogoll elves", left Summerset Island to follow Saint Veloth to complete the grand pilgrimage and migrated to Morrowind to settle, so this "change" turned Qimo into an elf. Distinguished from the Altmerg elves. This is also the reason why they call themselves "Velos Tribe" and "Elves".
To put it simply, for many centuries before Azura cast a curse that transformed the Chimer elves into Dunmer dark elves, the group of free men living on Vvardenfell in the province of Morrowind were uneasy with the status quo of Summerset Island. The "elves transformed from the Altmogo elves" have always been called "transformed elves". Although they have the same origin, the word "change" reflects changes in all aspects, from faith to life.
If there is no judgment seat, the three living gods steal divine power and ascend to heaven to become gods. They arbitrarily abandoned the belief in the Three Demon Gods that began with Saint Veloth, and were cursed by Azura in anger. There would be no Dunmer Dark Elves in the continent of Tamriel.
Of course, there would be no subsequent series of catastrophes.
Therefore, in a sense, this is a self-limited "plot to balance the plot" in the plot world without player participation.
At this point, the birth of a new race of elves, from high elves to change elves to dark elves, was announced to be completed.
"Master, Nayu Weili and Vera Sailan have turned into mottled shadow leaves and entered the Muse Golden Tree." The latest information came from the captain of the Storm Outlook, Storm Blade Angie.
"I know, Anji." The Lord gently put down the book in his hand.
There is also a streamlined study blessed by space magic in the lord's cabin. Although the collection is all transcripts of ancient books collected by the gray stone castle. But from the perspective of text reading, there is actually no essential difference.
The establishment of two librarians also makes the Lord's travel options more flexible. The librarian who was reading beside the lord at this moment was Dusk and Wind Catelia.
In the original plot line, Skyrim's most famous adventurer Catelia would unfortunately die during her adventure in search of the Crystal Forge of Divine Light. Of course, Catelia survived because of the lord's full companionship. At that time, the Lord Lord was already a powerful Tarn. On the opposite bank of Ximu Town, which is now the north bank of the White River in Hanluo Fortress, a lord's longhouse was built that was not inferior to any tarn.
In order to make up for the growing financial deficit, he accepted Catelia's high commission, and together they searched for the legendary artifact forged by the Dwemer dwarves using the divine light crystal.
Speaking of which, Catelia is also a "forgotten lady". Of course, this does not mean that these ladies must have had close and negative contact with the lord, but that they were forgotten in an old adventure. If it had not been "inadvertently triggered" to obtain a copy of the memory related to it, the lord would never have remembered it.
