LORE BOOKS

THIS DOCUMENT IS FOR THE CREATION AND SUMMARY OF LORE BOOKS AND JOURNALS FOUND THROUGH THE MOD
ALL ENTRIES MUST BE BELOW 1500 WORDS. IF YOU FIND YOURSELF GOING OVER THE LIMIT, MAKE IT A SEPERATE VOLUME/EXTRACT.
GRAMMAR HERE IS NOT PERFECT, POINTS ARE JUST TO ILLUSTRATE WHAT NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN.


---------------------------------

1. Lore book detailing a sadistic ayleid king who remains unnamed (use titles instead of omitting that he has a name entirely) and his
activities within his kingdom, describe the various tortures he inflicted upon men, how he made other ayleid lords uncomfortable and how he becomes more reserved due to his activities. This lore book can cover multiple volumes. - DONE

2. Describe heroic acts of the War Knight "Mados", and how he served the Reach, he lived 30 years prior to the events of the mod, he died 30 years ago. Mados was an icon for the people, he made up for their lack of courage and flaws with his "seemingly" perfect behavior and brave acts. - DONE

3. Describe the siege upon an important fort called "Grey Belmor", Imperials and Bretons from the local town "Raven spring" were recruited to the defense of the fort against an orc party calling themselves "Orsinium sons", Mados went out to search for Orcish shamans who were going to cast a curse on the fort, Mados is severely injured by one of the shamans and later dies. Describe the tragedy of the Reach losing such an iconic figure.

4. Describe how not all Orcs are the same, and that some want a peaceful life and have been the victims of pogroms and persecution for most of their existence. But that they're easily swept up in rally cries of more aggressive Orcs who most of the time have their own agenda.

5. Describe how the tribal "Witchmen" came to be, who their old gods were (you can make up any type of old god names and their persona here, but keep it within reason and context of the mod). Describe how they feel their way of living is the true way, and that they want the civilized "occupiers" out of their land.

6. Describe how a certain extremist sect of the witchmen came to be, who perverted the original religion of the witchmen into only worshipping one god (The god is namira, but leave that out as its supposed to be a mystery, just say that the activities the new witchmen are doing are horrific). Describe how the new witchmen almost wiped out the entirety of the old witchmen in a reforming of their tribes. - DONE

7. Describe the class system of High Rock (Just refer to how the class system was in feudal europe).

8. Book about varieties of life within Orsinium or who normally accompany orcs, such as ogres and goblins.

9. Book about Evermore's small petty war with Wayrest, where Evermore was the victor. How the war was instigated because King sigmayne was having an affair with the youngest daughter of the king of Wayrest (Underage in modern times). This book was not to slander king Sigmayne of Evermore, but to detail why the war occurred, and the tragedy that Wayrest soon fell to the Redguard Corsairs who sailed up the river.

10. Book about the Direnni, and their intricate trade routes to both the planes of oblivion, and a vast underground waterwork trade tunnel (Underground rapid rivers). They coveted massive amounts of wealth and resources. - DONE

11. Book about the consequence of the Amulet of Kings destruction and Martin septims sacrifice to keep Mehrune dagon out. How the barrier between Nirn and Oblivion is weakening. Although large scale invasions can't occur anymore on a whim, smaller incursions can still occur with enough planning and exploiting of loopholes in the universe. Talk about the towers being primary targets for daedric princes who want to take Nirn, as the Towers can be used to replace the immediate area surrounding it into the oblivion realm of the daedric aggressor, which can slowly creep out. - DONE
