Silgrad Tower from the Ashes - a Legio Argonis question

Quote:from Legio Argonis

[......]

During the decades in the Bitter Coast the Argonians had developed a crude alphabet, a system of law, and sharing of food. The developments were attributed to their unusually intelligent leader, a female named Ha'Zhorra.

The soldiers presented her with the two options, either be escorted back to the Black Marsh or voluntarily become slaves for the Dunmer. Ha'Zhorra wasn't very fond of either choice, and countered with a proposition of her own. ''The West Bitter Coast is a lawless area. It's ripe with organized crime and smuggling, thriving without Imperial presence'', she argued. ''What if our tribe agreed to enter into the Empire's service, both to maintain Imperial law in this region and to function as your eyes and ears? And in return, we could continue living here.''

The commander was intrigued by the idea, and certainly saw the benefits of her proposition from the Empire's angle. ''It could work,'' he said, ''but there's still the matter of your fishing. You know you're on Hlaalu soil and they have the legal right to evict you from their land.''

''Yes,'' she replied, ''but what if we agreed to never go further east than Latrys Island? I've never seen a Hlaalu fishing boat that far west anyway. And the Hlaalu couldn't evict us if we were an Imperial Legion. We would need to get food somewhere else, though.''

does this mean that the Argonians are allowed on Latrys Island? or does it mean they cannot go past it?

And so, Legio Argonis was formed. At first, they were simply patrolling the swamp, dressed in imperial leather and carrying the banner of Septim. They tried to educate estranged tribesmen, which had moved to other parts of the swamp, and persuaded them that joining Legio Argonis was the only long-term way they could continue living in the West Bitter Coast. During the following years Vetham aided the Argonians in starting up their very own kwama mine nearby, reducing their dependency on Imperial caravans.

so that means there are bands of Argonians still out there that are technically illegal... and Legio Argonis is trying to get them to join them in thei new way of life...
some of the betmeri guerillas on Vvardenfell are Argonians from here... in fact I think Eleel-Lei the notorious slave-revolter is... (making stuff up)

Vetham is a Legionaire now a Imperial Cult... and advisor...
so there are Dunmer in Legio Argonis?

if you guys don't understand what I mean I can make some markings on a map... if that will help? Confused

hrug:

You know, who ever made the Legio may have left silgrad modding, so you may have to guess

Legio was done by Razorwing. Give him a little more time to post his answer. Don't rush him now... Cool

It meant that they could swim near and around the uninhabited island, but not venture out into open water or near Vvardenfell's coast where Hlaalu had fishing rights. The argonians didn't have any interest in the island itself, they just wanted to fish. Smile

Unfortunately I wrote the book before I had finished modding the region, so it's not totally accurate with what ended up in the actual mod. There's no kwama mine for instance, and as I went along I didn't add any roaming argonians. It was more fun to mod little outposts. Tongue

I think the original idea to have roaming argonians was because someone else had already modded in a couple of argonian thieves further north in the swamp. If you want to have them or not is totally up to you.

There's one Dunmer, Vetham, in Legio Argonis. He is a member of the Imperial Cult and can be found in the same room as the matriarch. There are hints strewn around that they became lovers, which some other argonians frown upon. Again, you can nix him if you like; maybe the story can be tweaked so that he just educated them and then left before the game starts.

hmmm
:check: good starting ideas for quests
:check: good way to tie in with Vvardenfell a little bit
:check: good demographical idea. of the place

:goodjob: SWEET
