Sky Haven Temple Information
« on: November 06, 2013, 08:15:38 pm »
During the First Era, Sky Haven Temple served as an outpost for the Akaviri Dragonguard during their conflict with Dragons.

In 1E 2804, an event called the Winterhold Rebellion took place in protest to the forced conscription that were being imposed on the populace. The following year the city of Winterhold was sacked, this prompted the citizens to lay siege to the Sky Haven Temple. The siege was lifted after the accession of Reman II to Emperor.

Emperor Reman II permitted the construction of Alduin's Wall within Sky Haven Temple in 1E 2812. It's purpose was to record the accumulated dragonlore and prophecy that the Akaviri Dragonguard possessed at the time. Given that Alduin's return was inevitable, they believed that this was their gift to those that came after them.

Craftsmen from temples across the Empire were called upon to work on the wall and after six years it was completed. Emperor Reman II visited the temple to officially dedicate the Wall. The Blood Seal outside the temple was consecrated in the presence of all the Akaviri Dragonguard of Skyrim. This allowed the temple to be sealed, only to ever be opened by a Dragonborn.

As time went by and the Dragonguard fell into obscurity, the temple fell into a state of disrepair.
