Evermore Evermore is one of the nine - major kingdoms in the province of High Rock , being the capital of both the regions of Bangkorai and Mournoth . Evermore is the center of trade of Bangkorai , where the Bjoulsae River meets the Iliac Bay . It was created by the river traders living in the Western Reach . Description . Geography . Evermore is a walled - off city - state located along the Bjoulsae River , on the edge of the Western Reach . Evermore serves as a gateway to the Western Reach from central High Rock , eventually taking travelers to faraway Hammerfell or Skyrim . West of Evermore ' s Gates is the Bjoulsae Bridge , towering over the Bjoulsae and connecting to the Gavaudon region in Stormhaven . On the northern outskirts of Evermore is the farming settlement of Northglen , owned by the Bretons of House Giraud . Beyond that is the endless wilderness of the Viridian Woods , which takes a large portion of Southern Mournoth . The port yard is on the northern edge of Evermore , where the Bjoulsae leads into Halcyon Lake . South of Evermore is the Pelin Graveyard , which is Bangkorai ' s largest cemetery . Many nobles from Evermore are buried here , including Adrien Guimard . Evermore city itself is walled - off , with three distinct districts . Lower Evermore is the center of commerce , with the town square in the middle of the area . The Armor Gate leads to the Bjoulsae River , serving as the primary gate in Evermore . East of the town square is the Fighters Guild hall , using the outside as a training ground . North of the town square is St . Pelin ' s Chapel , the local religious temple dedicated to Saint Pelin , a local legend in Bangkorai . Continuing the road north would lead to Anchor ' s Point Inn , which overlooks the Bjoulsae River as ships come and go . Eventually , the road takes you to Northern Evermore , where the Stalls are located . The Stalls is the central market in Evermore , and it is situated in a very strategic spot in the city . Northwest of North Evermore is the harbor , and the Northeast is the Cemetery , which eventually leads to the outside . South of Lower Evermore is Upper Evermore , where the Mages Guild hall and Castle Evermore are located . This area is built atop of a foundation , making it overlook the entire domain . The Back Alley Market is the second - most used marketplace in Evermore , being located behind Castle Evermore . Southeast of the Mages Guild is the Eastern Gate . History . First Era . The Founding of Evermore & House Guimard . With the Siege of Orsinium ending in 1E 980 , the Bjoulsae River had opened up with the destruction of the city . In that area of High Rock lives the River House Bretons , who are the indigenous Bretons that heavily depend on the Bjoulsae River . Three years later in 1E 983 , the city - state of Evermore was founded by the River House Bretons and the earliest ancestors of House Guimard . Years later in 1E 1029 , Empress Hestra had created the Decretal of Fiefdoms when the Alessian Empire had annexed the province of High Rock , ever since the fateful battle at the Bangkorai Garrison . Disregarding Guimard records , this would have been the earliest record of Guimard ' s rule in Evermore , recognizing a certain " " Barron Guy Marde of ye Rivver Banke " . " But regardless , House Guimard ruled over Evermore , with a lineage of heroes and leaders . The Legacy of House Guimard & Evermore ' s Ascension . Throughout the first era , House Guimard had begun to appear throughout the Annals of Evermore , taking part in important events of that time . In 1E 2260 , Bendu Olo had formed the All Flags Navy , gathering the leaders of Western Tamriel . This was to attack the Sload of Thras , who brought about the Thrassian Plague that wiped out a lot of the population . One of these leaders was Baron - Captain Olsien Guy Mard , an early patriarch of House Guimard . The conflict ended when most of Thras had sunken into the sea . Another Guimard named Baroness Falinne Guimard had fought alongside the Breton forces that defended the Bangkorai Garrison against the Alessian Order in 1E 2305 . By 2E 341 , Baron Fulvert Guimard had expanded his territory and took part in the second Siege of Orsinium . Because of his service , the Barony of Evermore was elevated to the Duchy of Evermore . Second Era . The Conquest over Bangkorai & the Daggerfall Covenant . By 2E 542 , King Heseph Moile was killed amidst the Black Drake ' s Invasion , during the Conquest over Bangkorai . Moile died without an heir to the throne , and the city - state of Evermore was captured by the Reachmen Horde . Sometime later , Duke Blaise Guimard led the offensive force consisting of the Order of Saint Pelin that retook Evermore . It was after that , Blaise Guimard became the new King of Evermore , joining the newly - founded Daggerfall Covenant , created by Emeric of Cumberland , who hails from Wayrest . King Blaise fought alongside High King Emeric against Rivenspire in King Ranser ' s War . For his contribution to the conflict , he was rewarded with the hand in marriage of Emeric ' s niece , Arzhela Cumberland to his son , Eamond Guimard . Sometime later in 2E 568 , Blaise Guimard had passed away , leaving the throne to Eamond Guimard and Arzhela Cumberland . The couple would have two children , Adrien Guimard and Elara Guimard . They would continue to rule for the next twenty - years . Seventh Legion ' s attack over Bangkorai ; Widowed Queen Arzhela . During the Interregnum in 2E 582 , the region of Bangkorai was invaded by the Seventh Legion , led by Septima Tharn . King Eamond Guimard led the defense against the Legion at Bangkorai Garrison , alongside Prince Adrien , the Order of Saint Pelin and the freeborn militia of both Mournoth and Ephesus . Though in the end , Guimard ' s defense had failed , marking the second time the Bangkorai Garrison had failed to protect High Rock . Both Eamond and Adrien perished in battle . After the battle , the Dark Witnesses of the Reach attacked Evermore , though the defense was able to hold them back , though Princess Elara was damaged and left for dead somewhere within the Viridian Woods . Supposedly , she was found by the Viridian Sentinel , though her fate is currently unknown . Imperial Plot over Bangkorai & the Covenant ' s Defense . In the aftermath of the battle , Queen Arzhela mourned the loss of her family , but fortune would have it when the Daggerfall Covenant took the initiative , sending an Agent of the Covenant to Evermore after the situation at the Alik ' r Desert . The Dark Witnesses remained throughout the outskirts of Evermore as the Guard holds their position . Sergeant Antieve led the defense and tasked the Agent with assassinating Strastnoc , and defending the city . In the end , Strastnoc was defeated , and the Reachmen were quelled . The Agent was able to uncover a plot where Duke Renchant was planning to hand over Evermore to the Imperials , but he was put to justice by Arzhela . The Queen would then task the Agent with eliminating Imperial Spies through the city . With that threat dealt with in the capital of Bangkorai , Evermore , along with the Glenmoril Wyrd of Mournoth continued their attack on the Dark Witnesses at Jackdaw Cove . As time went on , Arzhela continued the fight against Septima Tharn and rule over Evermore and by extension , Bangkorai . Third Era . Evermore during the Imperial Simulacrum . During the Imperial Simulacrum from 3E 389 to 3E 399 , Emperor Uriel Septim VII was imprisoned along with Talin Warhaft in the Deadlands by Jagar Tharn . Tharn planned for months to capture the throne , and he was able to achieve so in ten years . Tharn had a powerful weapon called the Staff of Chaos , and he split it into nine pieces and scattered them across Tamriel , the staff was the only thing keeping Uriel Septim and Warhaft in Oblivion . A warrior escaped his clutches and traveled all corners of Tamriel to retrieve the missing pieces . The hero was known as the Eternal Champion , and he assembled the staff and defeated Jagar Tharn at the Imperial Palace . The Eternal Champion had at one point visited the city in their quest to recover the pieces . The city of Evermore was under the rule of King Tristynak . The Northpoint & Evermore Skirmishes . During the waning years of the third era , Evermore had partaken in several battles against the Kingdoms of Camlorn and Northpoint . Fortunately , these battles are minor , not enough to evolve into a full - scale war and the leaders of these regions have sought diplomatic resolve . Unfortunately , Evermore and Northpoint were not affected by the Warp in the West of 3E 417 , but they took advantage of it , absorbing smaller nations in the aftermath of the warp . The scope of their territory is enough to avoid the Iliac Superpowers ( i . e . Daggerfall and Wayrest ) and the War of Bend ' r - Mahk in the Western Reach . It is likely that the two Kingdoms have continued their conflict , all the way into the Fourth Era .
