About this image
The Inner Sea is a body of water that separates the mainland of the Imperial province of Morrowind from the large island of Vvardenfell. It stretches from the Bitter Coast and Ascadian Isles regions in western Vvardenfell all the way to Azura's Coast in the east. It meets the Sea of Ghosts twice: the two meld together near Azura's Coast, and again near the large and icy island of Solstheim northwest of Vvardenfell.
The Inner Sea was created after the giant volcano Red Mountain erupted and some of the landmass of Vvardenfell sank lower than sea level. The resulting crater was filled by the icy waters of the Sea of Ghosts, cooling the lava over time. Some reports place this event after the War of the First Council in 1E 668, referred to in the tales of numerous races—to the Nords it was The Year of Winter in Summer, to the Khajiit, Sun's Death. However, there are conflicting reports stating that there might have been earlier eruptions creating this change in landscape.

Thank you for the detailed description
Your pic and description are wonderful...maybe, I don't need to play it by myself
The coolness of this statement is only exceeded by the craftiness of your pics
You are cool and I am crafty, we make a good team eh?
Tamriel Rebuilt is all based after TES Lore. The original modder who started it I am sure work on Morrowinf itself since the mod was started before Morrowind was in stores. They are so far south that soon they will be in Black Marsh.
Thanks for the background info Psi, was not familiar on how it may have formed.
I am using some new ini lighting settings and a new luna sharpen shader.
