Winterhold is cold, just as always, what makes it cold, is the people...

The year is 4E 237, Emperor Titus Medes II was assassinated by a Dark Bortherhood assassin, and the Third Aldmeri Dominion, who themselves referred themselves as the Thalmor has taken this opportunity, as well as agent Ancano's short burst on the college to seize the land of Skyrim, the northern region of Skyrim, with the exception Windhelm, is now under the rulership of Aldmeri Dominion.

The Companion in Whiterun has been long gone, although not entirely cease to exist, they now operate their business in the underground so they can avoid the occasional Thalmor patrols in Whiterun. Nordic culture is now under a risk of being wiped out.

However, a new rivaling force which people believed to be able to overthrow the Thalmor is arising, led by a mysterious former Thalmor agent, whom he refers himself "KW", the only things we know are, he's an Altmer who looks rather old, but knowledgable, he expertises histories related to Third Era to a degree none in the Fourth era can rival his knowledge.

KW is now recruiting a group of mercenaries for his unclear plan, and you heard the summoning, the meeting location would be held at Whiterun Stable, however, before receiving KW's new mission, you may have a rest and introduce yourself in Bannered Mare, or having some small adventures around Skyrim.

It is said, a mysterious figure who can rival against the Thalmor would be revealed at the Winterhold College, as the first step of reclaiming the land, and now, you might have the chance to see it at the first place.

Crawler of the Soil, when the name is heard, it reminded us something, behind was a deep story related to a mage...

Developer's Blog & Behind The Scene

The contract is written:

To who who may concern,

In response to the incident dated 237 4E, we're hereby conducting a recruitment.

The Emperor Titus Medes II is recently assassinated by a sole assassin, whom they are commonly referred as Dark Brotherhood, and the position of the Empire is under the state of anarchy, we received a rumor which the Mer would seize the opportunity to take over the Empire.

The Companions are eliminated during this period, and the College also suffered from the same fate due to agent Ancano's unstable personality, despite being in the Dominion, he attempted to override whom he served, and so he resulted in his own demise and the College is near destruction.

Our forces are therefore affected deliberately, Whiterun, as the region of our last resort, it must be safeguarded, and so, we whom our name must not be heard, will live through the hardship. Bannered Mare must be secured, the situation is urgent that I shall not inform here.

Hear me, I died once, but we will live again, for we being the crawler of the soil, the others shall not secure the Empire.

By my hand and seal,

KW

Character Bio:

KW is the mysterious figure who summoned the travellers to his recruitment, nothing much is known about him other than being a book author and former Thalmor Wizard who boldly rival against Ancano. He joined the Thalmor back then only to spy on them, and he holds no opinion to Talos worship at all, KW only lives for knowledge and belief, for him, Thalmor took away the right to believe in an entity, and so he despises them.

He's an experienced veteran mage who experienced Great War when he worked as a scribe, it is rumored that he probably witnessed the downfall of Third Era Mages Guild as well. KW specializes all schools of arcane arts without any regard to Mages Guild's old rules, especially the controversal Conjuration and Necromancy school. As a result, he's praised by the Winterhold College for his books until Ancano overthrew him. KW is also the one who created the Dead Thrall spell. Somehow, it loosely gave away his real identity and tragic past in 3E, but when the people truly knew KW, they'll run away from him, making him rather upset.

Despite being a little bit old, he's surprisingly agile and intelligent, capable of reading Ancient Nordic and Aldmeri fonts and he expertises arcane art to a degree that only the Third Era Mages Guild can rival his passion on researching. Sometimes, he greet people with Dovahzul just to mock them, but for the Dragons, who understand what he said, it is definitely unpleasnent.

"Zu'u los faal Jun Lir." - KW, his mockery when he introduces himself.

Spec Note: a wise man, but a complete control freak even for Altmer standard.

KW, or he sometimes referred himself as "Kelv", have started to recruit allies to overthrow the Thalmor.

KW: "Hear my words... by my hand and seal, KW... and done."

KW: "And soon, the Dominion will know their place...."
