The refreshed lord returned from the gray stone vault and buried himself in the study.
Among all the known unclaimed realms, the lord has set his sights on the Holy Land of Evil Men.
"Local Bretons gather in a secluded woodland known as the Sanctuary of Bad Men for a festival to appease Shao, the ancient Brighton god of harvest. According to tradition, appeasing Bad Men will ensure good luck and a good harvest."
According to the Lord's understanding, Gaoyan, adjacent to the northwest skyline, is a very special land. Especially from a historical perspective, unlike the bloody storms that accompanied the rise of the human empire of Cyrodiil and the birth of the Kingdom of Nord in Skyrim, the elves and human races of High Rock have lived together in relative peace for thousands of years, and have gradually formed through continuous integration. A new race - the Bretons. The mountainous landscape and isolated environment also create a unique political ecology here. High Rock is ruled by many different city-kingdoms, these small kingdoms are highly autonomous, sometimes in conflict, sometimes in alliance. It was not until an invasion from the east that the loose kingdoms were forced to unite.
In 2E 542, the black dragon Ducolach led the Reach people to attack High Rock. They swept across High Rock from east to west, destroyed Evermore and Camlorn, besieged Wayrest, and advanced to Daggerfall in the west of High Rock. With the desperate resistance of the defenders of the Daggerfall Kingdom and the cooperation of reinforcements led by Earl Aymeric of the Wayrest Kingdom, the "Black Dragon" Dukolaci was finally defeated in this battle. After this battle, all the kingdoms in High Rock saw the necessity of unity, so the Kingdom of Daggerfall, Kingdom of Wayrest, Kingdom of Camlorn, Kingdom of Eternity, and Kingdom of Brokenhelm signed a defense treaty to jointly resist foreign enemies. The first Daggerfall The Alliance was born.
Later, a plague swept through Tamriel and killed the royal family of Wayrest, but the country could not live without a king for a day. As a result, the popular Earl Aymeric was elected as the new king and successfully ascended the throne. In order to give birth to an heir as soon as possible and continue the royal bloodline, the unmarried King Aymeric needed a wife. Perhaps because of true love or for political considerations, Aymeric fell in love with Malaya from Sentinel City. A Redguard princess from the Arikel Desert in the south. This decision angered King Lancer of Brokenhelm in the north, who believed that Aymeric should have married his daughter Princess Leyelle in accordance with the previous engagement. In anger, he sent troops to attack Wayrest City and launched the "Ranser's War (2E 566– 2E 567)" against Wayrest City. The newly formed alliance was crumbling because of this internal strife. Through outstanding diplomacy, Aymeric persuaded the fleet of the Kingdom of Hammerfell to send troops to support the battle against Lancer. He also reached an agreement with the orc chief Kurog gro-Bagrakh, in return for returning the orcs' homeland of Orsinium, and attracted the orcs to join his command. With two powerful allies, Aymeric not only defeated Lancer's army in one fell swoop, but also expanded the Daggerfall Alliance into a powerful military alliance spanning three places (so this battle of regretful marriage is more like a The political conspiracy orchestrated by King Aymeric and his staff).
The Holy Land of Evil Men is located in a cave on the western seaside of Grenaba in High Rock Province. It is a sub-domain surrounding a giant tree of annihilation. And this tree is actually a minor Daedric Lord, which conducts dark energy through its roots. It is said that as the tree grows, the realm itself grows larger.
In 2E 582, in order to test the boundaries of summoning, a group of mages summoned the Daedra out of curiosity to explore knowledge. Although it was too risky and not authorized by the Mages' Guild, they used some gems to summon the Daedra. However, the summoned Daedra killed the summoner and corrupted the other mages, then impersonated the ancient Breton harvest god: Xeo the Evil Man, and made a deal with the leader of this group of mages, Nicholas the Keeper of Mages. . "Evil Man Sheo" manipulates his followers to trick gullible travelers into going to the tree canyon to burn food as part of the Harvest Festival sacrifice ceremony. In fact, it is absorbing their souls to feed the tree and expand the territory.
The Soulless who traveled here were persuaded to participate in the Harvest Festival. Although he was swallowed by tree roots during the sacrifice, he did not die and met Evelyn Veidt who was captured under the tree roots. With Evelynn's help, the Soulless Ones burned the tree roots with Shaak's glands and tendrils, and collected the summoning gems needed to expel the "Evil Man Xeo". With the tree's roots damaged, Shao the Evil Man sets the canyon on fire, and the Soulless One burns the remaining tendrils on the altar. After repelling the "Evil Man Xeo", his companions used the Summoning Gem to expel the unknown Daedra lord, and assured the Soulless that "Evil Man Xeo" would not return to Nirn.
You must know that this nameless Daedra lord is no ordinary person who can pretend to be a "devil" to harvest faith. Referring to posing as "Evil Man Xie Ao" and reaching a "deal" with the head of this group of mages, Wu Chen naturally locked the target.
That's right, it's Karavicus Vile, the demon god of power, summoning, desire, and bargaining.
He is usually described as a short, flexible demon with horns on his forehead. Mortals can reach some contracts with this demon by praying through rituals, but those who make a contract with him often regret it quickly. He is always accompanied by his partner, the demon dog Barbas, who often appears in the form of a dog. He is a demon who is good at transformation. He often appears in the form of a dog, but he can barely It is considered part of the divinity of Karavicus.
During the Lord's old adventures, he and Babas traveled together for a period of time.
The Oblivion Plane of Karavikus Vile is a nameless, quiet countryside populated by the deadly yellow-skinned Daedra. When he appears in Nirn, Karawikus Vile seeks out materialistic people and fulfills their wishes.
You might think of him as a benevolent demon. However, sometimes he backtracks on his previous promises and adds something more to the summoner. The inner world of the devil cannot be guessed by mortals. We can only assume that he does this for fun. Like other demons, he just wants to have some fun with mortals.
Among the demonic artifacts created by Clavicus include the Masque of Clavicus Vile and the soul-sucking sword Umbra.
Among them, "The Mask of Karavicus Vile" is the most famous artifact he created. This mask can bring considerable charm to the wearer.
Another artifact related to Karavicus is the infamous soul-sucking sword Eclipse. In order to bring more people's souls to the plane of annihilation, he did not hesitate to lend part of his ability to the witch Naenra Waerr to build this weapon. But the witch tricked Karavicus, and the sword began to have a mind of its own. It calls itself the Eclipse Shadow, and will gradually erode the user's consciousness. In the end, the user even calls himself the Eclipse Shadow. This sword has appeared in various turbulent times in Nirn's world, and has been held by famous heroes.
About this magic sword, as Karavicus Vile himself said: "First of all, let's not call it an Eclipse. There is no Eclipse. It's just an illusion of those who suffer from it, you know? Like from Mt. A stone that rolls down doesn't work by its own motion, or like an abacus that doesn't work by its own mathematics. It's me inside the sword, it's that simple. If someone cuts off your leg, and your leg calls itself a shadow, it still It's your leg, isn't it? You don't understand humor? Do you? Use its arrogance to get it out of the sword."
The reason why the lord would think of Karavicus Vile. It's because the mask of Karavicus Vile, which can greatly enhance the charm of the wearer, was retrieved from the lost adventure memory by the lord. Just now, another demonic artifact, the soul-absorbing sword Eclipse, was brought back to the Gray Rock Castle by the leader of the vigilantes, Guardian Cassette.
There is also a dog that the Lord is very familiar with.
That's right, it's Babas the devil dog.
