40 Years has elapsed since the resolution of the Dragon crisis of 4E 201 along with The Tyranny of the sun prophecy and Miraak's failed incursion on Solstheim. Alduin and Miraak both lay defeated at the hands of the Last Dragonborn but the Volkihar Vampires managed to defeat the Dawnguard with his help. For the next year Tamriel's sky remained in total darkness and the vampire species flourished, greatly improving their numbers and building two more castle islands, all now heavily fortified and designed to be impenetrable. Whilst the Dragonborn reigned as the Lord of all vampires and husband of Serana, the bloodsucking race remained invincible and even hastened the end of the Civil War in favour of the wary stormcloaks. However the Dragonborn soon remembered a promise he made to the vampire sorceress Valerica and endeavoured to free her from the Soul Cairn. The mission ended badly and although Valerica was rescued, both the Dragonborn and Auriel's bow were lost. Due to her emotional loss, Serana became more and more reckless up until the point when Vingalmo ousted her in a coup and imprisoned her in her old tomb.

Following the return of the sun, the humans fought back against the vampires who had up until the loss of Auriel's bow held several parts of High Rock and Skyrim. In Wayrest a skilled general by the name of Renier Renoir quickly marshalled his forces and pronounced himself King of Wayrest, and ultimately King of High Rock. Throughout his reign Renier sired many children who'd failed to live past infancy until on his third marriage a boy was born who lived. The boy would the be groomed by his aging father to take over his Kingdom upon his eventual death. Unbeknowst to King Renier, the boy Prince's imperial mother Queen Octavia had been having a secret affair with her paramour and bodyguard Sir Robert Martens at the time of his conception making his true parentage unknown. Fearing for her son's well being Octavia ordered a moth priest to read from the Elder Scroll aptly titled Life. But the power of the scroll overwhelmed the priest and turned his body to stone along with the nearby Bjoulsae River. The magic of the Elder Scroll didn't just stop at turning a river to stone though... and to the Queen's horror she found her husband failing to die from a fatal wound suffered in a hunting accident. The Elder Scroll of Life had taken away death.

Now with the province of High Rock seemingly unkillable the Orsimers of Orsinium and the Volkihar Vampires have both aligned with each other in declaring war on the breton populace to contain the now immortal nation whilst at the same time trying to get their hands on the power of eternal life.
