I've seen the census carried out by the First Empire after the conquests in High Rock mentioned in a couple of places. However, it only says that Daggerfall was registered as a hamlet and that Wayrest wasn't mentioned at all. Is anything else known about it, for example did it mention any towns/cities or generally settlements above several hundred inhabbitants? Or is it another one of those things that is mentioned but doesn't really exist?

And if it doesn't exist, is anything known about settlements in High Rock during the pre-Nordic Elven rule? Could it be presumed that Bretons were either largely nomadic (I've seen mention of 'nomadic horseman', but that could well mean the Bjoulsae horse-people) or lived in very small groups? Also, were Bretons actually slaves of the Elves there, or were they just subjects who were considered second-rate? Could it be that their highly Elven-like appearance meant they were held in higher esteem than other 'barbarian' humans by their rulers?

Also, I've seen mention of ancient 'witch-kings' of High Rock, could those be a result of extensive exposure to Elven culture, families trusted by the Direnni during their post-First Empire reconquest and taught magick who later used it to impress the masses and become rulers? I believe I've read somewhere that Reachmen and Wrothgarian Bretons in general have medicine men and witches who impress the common folk with their magick and use it to gain influence, since they seem to be a lot like what the primitive 'transition' Bretons between the Nordic/Elven subjects and modern day squabblers I presume that would've been the case with the rest of High Rock at some point as well. Could all (or most) of the pre-Warp royal families have grown out of these witch-kings?
