As far as I know, the basic cosmology of everything is that Nirn is just one plane(t), while there are 8 other such planets, corresponding to the eight divines of the Cyrodiilic pantheon. The ninth divine, Tiber Septim, represents Nirn. Oblivion is the space between the plane(t)s and is filled with ...

Claim 4-3 Progress

This is where I will post progress updates of the claim I have been granted in Map 4. This is actually the 18-cell bottom half of the 4-3 claim, surrounding a village named Bodrum. This village will be Redoran and beyond this I only have a few ideas so far. I also have the roots of the great Pryai r...

From what I am seeing in the map, the town is nestled in the center of cells (-13,-18) to (-12,-19). This is well within the borders of the claim area I requested.
