Helgen, the gateway to Skyrim, and the Silver Road outside the city.
A group of soldiers who braved the wind and trudged from Cyrodiil were blocked by a huge stone wall towering between the peaks. This inhumane stone wall is imbued with magical power. It is obviously the Eye of Magnus left in the world by the chief architect of Nirn who can instantly change the terrain through teleportation. I heard that the lord used the law to reshape it into a magical "ring". There are more and more mainland scholars who rank Baron Ximu's original "Dharma Ring" system with Yokuda's "Sword Song" and Nord's "Dragon Roar". This is a new take on Nirn's magical power, Macchikar.
"I heard that Helgen was destroyed by dragon fire not long ago." The female general on horseback still exposed her arms even when the dripping water turned to ice, and opened her broad mind under the long fur winter coat blown by the cold wind. Obviously this is a Nord female warrior with "ancient blood of the old king".
"I heard that Baron Ximu rebuilt Helgen in one day." The guards beside her were all ancient blood female warriors "descendants of the old king" without exception: "Baron Ximu was also a war lord personally awarded by General Tullius. .”
"I also heard that he has a huge guard of Gisese Lady Ying." The female warrior on the other side came over and whispered: "The 'Last Dragonborn' has its own laws, and is called 'The Shu of the Living World' by Gine. you'."
"Legends are ultimately unbelievable, how can we prove it?" The female general on horseback looked up at the war machines on the city wall, assessing the difference with Cyrodiil. Although it can clearly be seen that it comes from the advanced skills of the Dwemer dwarves, it also seems to have the temperament of being better than the old. Perhaps it comes from another Clockwork City legend related to Baron Ximu. In Tamriel, a continent of swords and magic, the legend of heroes is the most indelible and profound memory after the belief in the Eight Holy Spirits. Possessing an indelible legendary memory point is almost equivalent to the starting point of a violent road to heaven.
As soon as the words were spoken, a beam of divine light pierced the clouds, and the ancient heroic spirit from Songgard descended to earth.
"I am the hero Wu Ding, the girl on horseback with my blood flowing. Who are you?" The heroic spirit of the legendary hero Wu Ding and his war hammer Tamut walked out of the divine light.
"Sure enough, it is the 'Real Shur'." The female general on horseback dismounted and saluted hero Wuding's hammer Tamut solemnly: "Jona, war lord of the Nord Legion of the Third Reich."
In 4E 174, the Thalmor commander ordered all elven forces to participate in the siege of the imperial capital, trying to end the war once and for all. In the spring of 4E 174, elven reinforcements gathered in southern Cyrodiil, and on the 12th of Second Seed, they launched a large-scale raid on the imperial capital. After a series of bloody battles, the Empire finally launched a massive counterattack in the "Red Ring Counterattack" on the 30th of Ute month, 4E 175, after paying a high price for the entire Eighth Legion and the fall of the Imperial Capital, which was massacred and plundered by the Chinese army. And after 15 days of bloody battle, the third Chinese siege army was defeated. The remnants of the elves tried to retreat from the south of the imperial capital, but were overtaken and completely defeated by the Nord army known as the "Unbreakable Shield Wall" led by the Nord War Lord Jonna.
In the second half of 4E 175, the Empire and the Thalmor signed the "Platinum Agreement", marking the end of the great war.
"Ah, are you the 'Red Ring Coffin nail' that smashed the heads of those 'long-eared' people under Cyrodiil City one by one?" Hero Wuding waved even the strong Nord with one hand. Warriors also held the warhammer Tamut in both hands, and waved to the city of Helgen behind them: "Go, children, welcome home."
With that said, the hero Wuding wielded the war hammer Tamut again, and gave Jona a Songard created by one of the ancestral spirits desecrated by the lord—Rena Hammerhand using the core dust of Nirn." "War Pattern of Courage": "Next time you beat the disobedient guys, call me too."
"Yes, Ancestor Wu Ding." Qiao Na thanked her gratefully. Looking up again, the hero Wuding has returned to Songgard with a beam of divine light.
"General, now you believe it." Helgen City Gate rumbled open and the guards lined up to greet him. The henchman beside him smiled and winked.
The Captain of the Helgen Guard routinely checked the transfer order and seal, and after confirming that they were correct, he saluted respectfully: "Salute to you, General Jonna."
"Where is your leader?" General Jonna said in her usual resolute manner: "I want to commandeer Helgen Fortress and ask the Baron to replenish the supplies consumed along the way as soon as possible."
"Mrs. Ruiya went to Graystone Castle to participate in the sixth granting ceremony and has not returned yet." Everyone in Tianji knew something. Captain Helgen Guard had no need to hide it: "You can just go directly to the fortress. Please leave everything to me. .”
Moon Shadow Scimitar Rhea, the housekeeper of Helgen Castle, is also the mayor of Helgen City. Before leaving for the Graystone Castle, he delegated military affairs to the captain of the Helgen Guard.
"Okay, Captain." General Qiao Na also listened to various gossips about the "Sixth Commitment Ceremony" that were circulated among the caravans along the way.
Falkreath is located in the southernmost part of Skyrim, bordering the two major provinces of Cyrodiil and Hammerfell. It is the southernmost territory in Skyrim besides Rift Valley. Helgen, the portal to Skyrim, and Neuragard Fortress are also symbols of the territory. The Nord Army, which was ordered to "return to its base for rest" this time, did not go to its former base, Neuragard Fortress, but chose to be stationed in the rebuilt Helgen Fortress. What Bingfeng is referring to must be a civil war in Tianji.
Neugrad Fortress, located southeast of Helgen, was once a small settlement in the southwest of Skyrim called "Neugrad Watch" adjacent to Lake Neugrad. During the Imperial Vision in 3E 397, Neuragard's Hope was ruled by Lord Fenrens. It borders several settlements, including Falkreath to the southwest and Oakwood to the northeast. By 4E 201, the settlement had been abandoned, leaving only the fortress of Nuragard, garrisoned by a handful of guards, left isolated due to an avalanche in the Pale Pass guarding the Pale Pass and the destruction of Helgen by Alduin the World Eater. The helpless Nuragard Fortress was occupied by a group of bandits. The old library is ransacked by the Breton bandit mage Brandish in search of magic items. The bandits originally planned to clear the place before Lord Falkreath could react, but during the civil war between the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloaks, it was recaptured by the Lord, who was named Baron Helgen. The Pale Pass, which had been flooded by avalanches, was also reopened. The ramparts guarding Pale Pass were rebuilt as soon as possible. Only then did a steady stream of merchants and Nord Legions come back for reinforcements.
Obviously, this is another branch line derived from the Lord's in-depth intervention.
Because in the original plot line, the Pale Pass remained closed until the end of the Civil War.
The Imperial Expeditionary Corps can only detour to Dugu City or Windhelm City via sea routes to land. Now that Ulfric Stormcloak has recaptured Windhelm and has closely guarded the Eastern Empire Company's routes, the Imperial Legion has lost its most important landing point in Eastern Skyrim.
Therefore, with the reconnection of the Silver Road, sending the Nord Legion loyal to the Empire back to Skyrim has become one of the few options to deal with the current situation.
In particular, the turmoil in Richland is rapidly spreading to the surrounding areas. As the imperial spy in Markarth City was assassinated in the street, the battle-hardened General Tullius was keenly aware of a hint of danger.
So with a transfer order, "Red Ring Grave Nail Joanna" and her "Unbreakable Shield Wall" Nord Army were stationed in the rebuilt Helgen Fortress.
Graystone Castle, Lord's Study.
Soon, before Joanna and her army could settle down, the Lord had received a notification from Helgen.
"Master? Do you think General Joanna will participate in the civil war?" The Lord General was silent, and the housekeeper asked softly.
"It's hard to say." The Lord Lord smiled: "But intuitively not."
