Is there any lore about the Glenmoril witches?

They are notorious Conjurers – in fact stories about them giv us much of our knowledge on *how* conjuration is done.

Their relations with certain Daedra – he majority of things conjured and the easiest to conjure are from oblivion – also give them some insight into the divine diseases of Lycanthropy and Vampirism

They're all about as powerful as an archmage, and they're all female.

They worship Hircine and usually offer cure for Lycanthropy, though they have been associated with curing vampirism as well.

They can shapeshift into birds.

Nor Oblivion. Instead, they were only ~~referenced~~ hinted, but no "I'm a Glenmoril!"

True, Melisande never does say she's glenmoril.

Though, the fact she does know how to cure vampirism is a sure sign she probably was one.

She use to be a witch, she said she gave up witchcraft a long time ago. Janus Hassildor references her to being one of them. Hinting that one still exists in Cyrodiil's borders.

Well given how much they're persecuted, I doubt she'd tell you out right.

We're in the right region for the Glenmoril Wytches...

Them being tied more closely to Daedra than other mages implies that they draw their spells from the Waters of Oblivion (if we are to use lore that hasn't really been touched on since Battlespire).
