I included only characteristic regions in the Tamrielic province of Skyrim. don't factor in:
- Random encounters, dragons included. Encounters with native creatures and people are not considered random.
- Dragon mounds. Tempting places for a traveler to visit that prove the folly of him/her should be considered.
If possible, explain your choice with character-specific experiences. Lore/geographical evidence is fine.
The regions generally correspond to the holds they represent. A tenth option is there, because most maps [http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Map_(Skyrim)] show that holds don't claim the northern shore as part of their territories. Very special regions (Throat of the World etc) are not included, and should not be considered.
