Dawn’s Beauty.

That was Tamriel, translated from Elvish. One would not be hard-pressed to believe that this was true, if they watched Magnus, the sun, rise from over the horizon from the continent’s highest peaks.

As dawn touched the eastern shores of Morrowind and Black Marsh, Tamriel began waking up.

The light reached Blacklight, and the Velothi Mountains first, its rosy hue spilling down into the Vale of Skuldafn. These locations were where Aryon Drethan and Lyris Cold-Helm resided, respectively.

As the two got out of their beds, and headed to their dining halls to feast, the sun began dawning over Cyrodiil. Bravil and Leyawiin Counties were the first to wake. Cheydinhal was next.

Finally, the light shone on the Tower of White-Gold, the home of the Emperor of Tamriel. Darius Stormblade II had ruled over the Empire for fifteen years peacefully. Several minor incidents happened every day, but not enough to change everything.

Thus, the eternal, interlocked cycles of Mundus continued, undisturbed.

He went to Akavir with an expedition soon after he dealt with the members of the Tribunal, but returned when Azura sent him a dream of the Oblivion Crisis. Alas, he was too late and returned after the Argonians invaded Morrowind.

Aryon, being the Nerevarine, was instrumental in the second defeat of House Dagoth, battling the leaders of the House deep in Red Mountain, while the Talos Cult bought him time in the Battle of the Ashlands.

Aryon resides in Blacklight, serving as advisor to the Queen of Morrowind, Talari Avalenar. However, rumor has it that their personal relationship is ‘’much’’ closer than that…
