==Background==
According to Vicecanon Heita-Meen, Murkmire was one of three regions in Black Marsh to join the Ebonheart Pact at its founding in 2E 572 along with Shadowfen and Thornmarsh,From Argonian to Saxhleel but this statement has been interpreted to be "more aspirational than descriptive" as Murkmire remains an autonomous region with no central authority.Loremaster's Archive: Murkmire Q&A Murkmire's environment is uniquely dangerous insofar as much of the land is home to dangerous flora such as Gas Blossoms, Static Pitchers, Catapult Cabbages and Lantern Mantises.Events of Six tribes of Argonians inhabit Murkmire: the Bright-Throat, Ghost People, Black-Tongue, Root-House, Miredancer and Dead-Water Tribes; each of which are varyingly receptive to the non-native Argonians and other races based out of the city of Lilmoth. While some tribes like the Bright-Throats are hospitable and peaceful, others, like the Naga of the Dead-Water Tribe, are aggressive and unwelcoming.Tribes of Murkmire
In 2E 582, with financing from Kassandra, a wealthy Argonian noble from Cyrodiil and former slave, the treasure hunting and antiquarian group Cyrodilic Collections began organizing expeditions into Murkmire to recover relics from the pre-Duskfall era of Argonian civilization, intending to open a museum in Black Marsh to preserve Argonian history and allow it to be appreciated by the modern Argonians.Dialogue with Concordia Mercius during "Ruthless Competition" in

==Trivia==
*Murkmire has undergone various changes. Originally, it was announced as an Adventure Zone akin to what Craglorn once was, but was changed to a regular zone. Sometime later, its location was changed from being the western region directly south of Shadowfen, surrounding Gideon, to the far south around Lilmoth.
*Murkmire takes inspiration from by including locations such as Ixtaxh-thtithil-meht. Lilmoth is a centralized location in the first part of the novel.
*According to datamining, it is approximately the size of the Clockwork City.
*Lilmothiit once lived in Murkmire, but where totally wiped out by the Knahaten Flu
*There are no books that are a part of Shalidor's Library in Murkmire.
