## History

### The Origins

Dovahndor, later to renamed to Judhofkiin centuries later, believed created after Men overthrow the Dragons's rule in Skyrim, and the collapse of the Dragon Cult. There are some theories of what its origins, some sources suggested that it was build by an ancient civilization as well a ancient order, and others believes to be build by the gods. The most common theories was that Shor, the Nordic chief god, created the realm and the palace, in case if Sovngarde had destroyed but it didn't. The underdepths was the headquarters of Ancient Order while the Dragons ruled the skies of Dovahndor, but it was soon abounded after the order dissolved and defeated.

For centuries the ruins of mysteries gate stood dormant on the peak of the Throat of the World. Few know about it's existence and even fewer has seen it. No one really knows its origins, but there are several theories. Some say it was built by an ancient civilization in an attempt to contact the gods, while others say it was builds by the gods themselves. Millenia ago the dragons named the gate Monahven Miraad, or the Gate of Mother Wind in the dragon tongue. This name was later adapted by the Greybeards, who made their sanctuary on the mountain centuries ago.

### First Era

In year 1E 2860, Jurvarr Stormcaller, a Greybeard discovered the Underdepths of Dovahndor and finds the ancient order who prayed to presumably Lorkhan. While Jurgen Windcaller, the Greybeard Grandmaster and founder, granted Jurvarr the ownership of Dovahndor, and defeating the order with force. After the ancient order was defeated, he find a secret passage leading up to later known to be quarters of Marcella, cutting off by magic.

### Second Era

In the Second Era, a scholar named Arahael Rivengar erected the realm once again by when he re-discovered the Underdepths and had settled and camp there near a river. Sometime later, the group of thieves and Nightingales arrived in Dovahnor and settled in the Underdepths which the Thieves and Nightingales had build a home in the Underdepths.

### Fifth Era

When Marcella Varian ascended into become the God of the Ten Divines after her passing, it states that Marcella was awarded not only her becoming a god within the Divines, but have her own residence in Aetherius. It also mentions that at the time Marcella defeated the World Eater Alduin in Sovngarde, Marcella see Akatosh upon the defeat of Alduin, and said that there's going to be "good place for her accomplishments". The builder of the Goddess' Home is either Shor, who is the creator god of Nirn and Sovngarde or Zenithar, God of labor.

Upon completion, Marcella was very impressed and started to love it, and started to named her new home "Judhofkiin" meaning 'Queen-Home'. It also said that her wife Jenassa, who become Saint upon her death few years later, of re-joining her in her new mansion-like home together, and stated that she would join her love to at least be by her side, it was her only wish after they were separated and soon they were reunited - bound together forever.

During the Fifth Era, when Emperor Titus Varian III was killed by Shamar gro-Rogdul in the woke of the King Shamar's Conquest of Cyrodiil. Doing this time, Marcella was called by the Imperials to be "Warrior Goddess", and transported to Cyrodiil and saved and Shamar was later killed by Crassius Avento, who become Emperor soon after. And Haidoneus return after the pervious era defeat by Marcella Varian herself, and he attempted to invaded Judhofkiin, but failed.
