A Province Divided:

The Interregnum

The year is 2E 472, it has been nearly 500 years since Tamriel has had an Emperor on the throne.
The provinces have broken apart into a complex web of small warlords and kingdoms.
Even the Imperial Province is nigh unrecognizable.

Since the death of the Akaviri Potentate Savririen-Chorak forty years ago, the Empire has had a string of ineffectual leaders, unable to keep the old Counts from revolting. Soon, the Imperial City found itself separated from the rest of the Empire.

Finally, a minor warlord invaded the Imperial City and wiped out almost all of the Empire's remaining Legions.

Now what little remains of the old Reman Empire has retreated south to Leyawiin, and awaits its doom.

In the West, the highly independent lords of the Colovians swiftly united under the banner of the Colovian Empire.

In the north, a tribe of Boethia worshippers have taken over the former county of Bruma, instituting a new religion based on their Daedric Prince.

In the East, Cheydinhal has fallen to minor, bickering warlords fighting for control of small towns and villages.

In the South, Bravil and Skingraad have united as a single nation.

And on the rocky coasts of the Abbecean Sea, a small city state has formed.

This is a time of great hardship in Cyrodiil, a time of warriors and kings, of mages and assassins. Perhaps there is a new Reman amongst these young kingdoms, a leader that the people of Tamriel can unite around.

?All that is sure is that the Interregnum has begun

But there is still hope.

Recently, a council was called to meet in the White Gold Tower to discuss the future of Tamriel. The leaders of many of the kingdoms have sent representatives, and several leaders have also come. These debates may just be the spark to begin a bloody war, or may lead to a great peace that shall stand the test of time.

General Corvus. Skingrad.

The man merely smirked at what the Rislau said. He got of his horse, and went face to face with him.

"You call me a puppet? A puppet is a ruler of a nation who is doing the bidding of a ruler from another nation. I am merely doing what my brother, whom I am on the same nation as him, request, to reunite Cyrodiil. And you want to know how we convinced these soldiers here to join our army? It's because they are sick of this province being divided, sick of Cyrodiil spilling it's own blood, sick of how we once ruled all of Tamriel but now can't rule all of ourselves. That is why they are here. And they are Colovians. It's in our blood to fight.

We are not doing this in the honor of the Gods, but for the honor of Cyrodiil. Aventius may not be Reman have Dragonblood in his veins. But he does have the requirements for reuniting this country. Are you claiming that the Empire is not corrupt? Have you even met someone from the Senate? They care more about Drakes then the Reman Empire, if it wasn't for fools like them, Cyrodiil would not be like this. Oh, does some of that charity goes to the Senate in aid of this 'alliance'? Because that's probably is the case and you will refuse it is. And you claim the church had made this city is nice? People from SKingrad and Bravil, now living in Anvil, have claimed that you even outlawed begging. Yet that is no oppression Gods know what else you have done.

But now is not the time argue about who is right, or who is wrong. This is about the fate of Skingrad. You'll go first."
