(TL;DR, Liannistra teaches Alyssa about why most Dunmer families hate the Empire, then names all the player characters throguhout the games except for the Vestige.)

As the Party headed south out of the snow Alyssa looked at Lia "The Dunmer are not part of the Empire or the Aldmeri dominion right?" she asked, obviously she was about to begin a long question. "But in Windhelm, the Dunmer seems to sympathize more with the Empire than anyone else, and her in solstheim, I've yet to see a single Imperial soldier."

"If a legionnaire dared show his face here, he'd probably get jumped by angry Dunmer. There's a vast difference between Skyrim and Solstheim. Morrowind is controlled by a number of Great houses, Redoran, Telvanni, Indoril, Dres and until just about a little over a century ago Hlaalu was a great house too. During the Oblivion ciris, the Empire withdrew their troops from Morrowind to defend Cyrodiil from the daedra, the people of Morrowind believed the empire had abandoned them and they grew to hate the Empire, they had no way oftaking revenge on the empire so they targeted House Hlaalu, supporters of the Empire, the council revoked their status as a great house. The Dunmer who live in Windhelm today are the very same people that had their status revoked as well as their descendants. Imperial Supporters, apart from House Hlaalu, most of the people of Morrowind despise the Empire with all their heart, Raven Rock being controlled by House Redoran the Empire is for the most part not welcome here."

Alyssa thought for a moment "So there are only four great houses left?"

Lianni shook her head lightly "No, When House Hlaalu was removed from the counicl House Sadras became a new great house, I know very little about the house. Millenia ago, House Dagoth was also part of the Great houses, atlhough back then, the Dunmer were Chimer."

"Dagot, as in Dagoth Ur?" Alyssa asked, astonished.

"The very same, Voryn Dagoth, later Dagoth Ur, he used the Heart of Lorkhan to become virtually a god, but he was defeated by the Nerevarine on the orders of Azura, patron god of the Dunmer." Lianni said

"Who was the Nerevarine?" Alyssa asked

"A Dunmer of remarkable power, he might even rival you, Azaron Indoril is his name, unlike you, he cared little for what people called him, Azaron, Nerevar, Nerevarine. It made no difference to him." Lianni said as they began to approach Tel Mithryn.

"You sound like you've met him." Alyssa said, narrowing her eyes

Lianni looked at her and said "No, I haven't, In the third era he left Tamriel for Akavir, he might have wound up in Natirth but I'm not sure exactly. But Tamriel have had many great heroes whose names are rarely spoken, some like the Vestige, has so many names that none knows which is right,

others like Cyrus the Restless and Hannelon Sidd who defeated the Umbra Keth never received the fame of other heroes,

Vatasha Trenelle who travelled through Oblivion and defeated Mehrunes Dagon never attained the glory of Xandurius Nucestrake who ended the Oblivion Crisis.

Talin Longinus who rescued Uriel Septim VII from Oblivion, after Jagar Tharn trapped him,

Irareas Sexar who laid King Lysandus to rest and caused the warp in the west."

She looked at Alysss "Alyssa Lariat, who defeated Alduin the world-eater.

and of course, Tiber Septim who unified all of Tamriel and ascended to Godhood. Or so the legend goes. Those are the greatest heroes of Tamriel thus far." Lianni finished
