About this video

One of the largest regions of western Morrowind, the Roth Roryn is a dusty and dry set of canyons, ravines, low grasslands, and twisting river valleys that's home to both Great House Redoran and Great House Hlaalu, with a number of small settlements dotting the region. Rather sparsely populated overall, outside of the main settlements of Bodrum, Kartur, and Menaan, you'll find few signs of recent civilization among the crags and rocks of the Roth Roryn, aside from the occasional farm and plantation. None the less, this rocky and broken landscape is home to some beautiful vistas, with ancient ruins, forbidden temples, and mountain-top monasteries all providing scenic destinations for would-be adventurers.

Aside from beautiful landscapes, however, the largest city in the Roth Roryn is the rather unique and sizable Redoran city of Kartur, built in an almost hidden box-canyon near the coast of the Ascadian Bluffs. This city is home to some of the only factions and merchants you'll find in the Roth Roryn region, including a Fighter's Guild and Mage's Guild chapter, as well as a number of residences, manor houses, and other minor sights to see. Outside of Kartur, however, you'll find the ancient town of Bodrum, the site of one of many conflicts from the long forgotten Four-Score War when Emperor Reman II tried, and failed, to conquer Morrowind. Aside from these two prominent Redoran settlements, there's also a variety of Hlaalu villages and plantations, the most prominent of which is the village of Menaan, sitting in a valley in the eastern Roth Roryn region. Menaan offers, arguably, the best views and scenic vistas of the region, even if the town itself is quite small.

Of course, there's more than a few dangerous elements to be found in the Roth Roryn, the crag-like canyons provide ample hiding spots for bandits and brigands, while ancient Dwemer and Daedric ruins dot many of the hillsides, offering adventure or death for the unwary traveler.

The 2019 visual update to the Roth Roryn region is courtesy of Nemon, and with any luck, this region will be released sometime later in 2019 or 2020, depending on when quest production is finished. So stay tuned for more information on that front, and of course, stop by the Tamriel Rebuilt website and Discord server to follow more progress on this amazing and ambitious project!
