Updated Maps?

Post » Wed Jan 15, 2014 4:32 am

Have there been any official updated world maps made during the time of Skyrim. Specifically one that shows Morrowind as a big hole?

Any unofficial ones?

I just can't seem to find anything anywhere. Just seems really odd that official maps were not made as Skyrim was released.

Should Morrowind really be a big hole? The only thing I think that actually disappeared was Vivec which probably crashed into the sea. Vvardenfel and parts of Morrowind should just be an ashy wasteland.

Vivec was destroyed when the Ministry of Truth crashed into it, the bay in which it sat is now boiling (or at least was at the time of the Infernal City) and the rest of the province suffered earthquakes and ash fall.

The actual shape of Morrowind didn't change, nor is it a giant hole in the ground. In fact, you can still see the lovely, bellowing peak of Red Mountain from Solsthiem.

The way I understand it there would be damage that could be seen from space (so to speak). I know there is no big hole there, but some kind of updated map would be nice, especially one that would show exactly what lands the Argonians actually hold now (along with other factions after the Great War).

Well, based on the information from The Infernal City, the Argonians actually abandoned everything they had taken during the invasion. The novel implies they did so willingly, though the information in Dragonborn indicates that House Redoran managed to mount a counter attack. In all likely hood, it is a combination of factors, but the end result is that the borders haven't really changed.

In fact, with the exception of the Dominion, the borders of Tamriel haven't seemed to change much at all. The only alteration to a map i can think of would be renaming Vivec City to the Scalding Bay.
