Nicolard's Notes on Ruin Origins
Original media : TES Online
By Nicolard Lia
It's taken me nearly a week, but I think I've singled out the tribe responsible for this construction. An inscription in ancient Keptu. Well "glyph" more than inscription, they would have been an almost entirely oral culture in this period, but I digress. It means "Bloodroot" as best I can tell. A colorful allusion to the thick vines and ruddy rock found here, no doubt. Such a rich source of Nirncrux would have been quite a find to these people, so it's no suprise they built substantial structures on this site. I've found no real sign of excavation though. Perhaps this place predates the techniques developed by the Nedes for refining the stone. Maybe it's a temple? |
