📋 About This Mod
Wyrmhaven is a tiny island far to the west of Solstheim, claimed at various times by a clan of Chimer fleeing the wars with the Dwarves, a fire-breathing dragon, a band of Nordic exiles, the Breton Kingdom of Farrun, and the Septim Empire. The closing years of the Third Era see a rich trading port run by a corrupt Imperial Governor, who uses the North Empire Company as a front for smuggling contraband throughout the northern provinces. With the Wyrmhaven Imperial Legion firmly in the Governor's pocket, pirates and smugglers operate with impunity, and only the embattled Order of Kynareth preserve any semblance of law and order. Will you take the oath and earn your place among the Knights of Kynareth, joining their battle against injustice and corruption?
To travel to Wyrmhaven, talk to Gilfanon on the ship south of Hla Oad.
