===Second Era===
During the Interregnum in 2E 582, the town of Wind Keep was under the control of Countess Ilise Manteau, who after the death of her husband, had suitors coming from all corners of Tamriel, even from faraway Summerset Isles. Around the same time, the Supernal Dreamers, a radical group of Vaermina worshippers has terrorized the denizens of Stormhaven from as far as Alcaire. Ilise Manteau had come into possession of a mirror and was not seen since. A traveler known as the Vestige arrived into Wind Keep and was tasked to find out what happened to Lady Manteau. The mirror had taken possession of Ilise Manteau into a pocket realm of Quagmire, the Daedric Plane of Oblivion emphasizing her sphere of influence, the ideas of Dreams and Nightmares. The mirror was a gift from Sirion Guerat, a member of the Dreamers, who planned the assassination of Ilise. He was defeated by the Vestige, who defended Ilise when she visited her late husband's grave.Events in A Look in the MirrorEvents in Gift from a Suitor

Tharn planned for months to capture the throne, and he was able to achieve so in the span of 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 town of Stoneforest in their quest to recover the pieces.Events in
