Description[]

History[]

Hsaaftal, along with Windhelm, and some other areas, is among one of Skyrim's oldest cities, having an ancient Atmoran design with it.

Merethic Era[]

When it was built is unknown, but it is known that the CIty-State was built by several Atmorans who discovered the area. It is known that the City-State was one of the strongholds used by Atmorans when they were about to attack the nearby Snow Elf locations, after the destruction of Saarthal.

During this time, the first Thane of Hsaaftal was Klulsgirr Iceheart; the first known clan member of the Iceheart Family, he is believed to had founded the Hsaaftal Warriors Hall, using the remains of a forgotten Atmoran ship that had gone offshore, until it landed near what is now known as modern-day Dawnstar. The remains of the people inside were also later on among the first remains in the Falkreath Graveyard.

After Klulsgirr's death; his brother Hromir Iceheart is believed to had taken the seat of Thanehood, he is believed to had attempted a conquering of Skyrim; his 30-year ruling had brought much blood, destruction, and much more. Until his eventual assassination,

In a number of months after his death, his personal court mage; Synoth, had taken Thanehood, and attempted to restore order in his 113 years of ruling. Towards the end of his life, he had brought things relatively together; until the Thrassian Plague had impacted Tamriel, and devastated the city of Hsaaftal, which had killed Synoth, along with around 74 percent of the population.

Second Era[]

It is known that the City had a high number of Breton, Argonian, and Dunmer refugees, it is unknown when this occured, but it is known this had eventually died down, and it had returned to a predominantly Nord population.
