A lorefriendly mod

"This coarse, uncivilized province is far from hospitable, but it is also a place of fierce, wild beauty, with
grand vistas and inspiring natural wonders awaiting those with the will
to seek them out and the refinement to truly appreciate them."
An Explorer's Guide to Skyrim by Marcius Carvain, Viscount of Bruma

[size=+2]History:[/size]

Amol: Winterhold was once a mighty and proud city of impressive power. The most eminent scholars, the most talented artists, and the richest and most powerful nobles came from all corners of Tamriel to lay their eyes upon the seat of power of the High King and his glorious realm. However, during this era, Winterhold was at war with its rival, the city of Solitude. To protect his kingdom and ease the defense of his borders, the High King
ordered the construction of a powerful navy composed of the braved sailors and the best Nord ships. To protect the land, he had a strong, well-defended city-fortress build near the border. It was called Amol.

Amol, once having defended the southern border of the High King's realm, is now the most powerful city in the hold due to Winterhold's fall into a derelict state. Although the Jarl resides in his palace in Winterhold, far away from the mighty fortress, Amol pays the taxes that fill Winterhold's chests. Controlling the trade routes through the North doesn't make the city incredibly rich, to the dismay of its inhabitants,but it is certainly influential in controlling movement in the region. And it has been said that when the real sons of Skyrim rise, the fortress will breathe and rise again.[/left]

Blackmoor: An ancient city built by the old nords of Whiterun hold. The city was abandoned and rebuilt time after time, the last just before the oblivion crisis. Wheat and honey for making mead are the lifeblood of the city. Its position gives the city control over the old pass to the Morthal swamps and the cursed city of Labyrinthian. Now that civil war is fast approaching Whiterun hold the city must prove it is worthy of its former glory.

Nimalten: The ancient city of Nimalten was abandoned for reasons unknown after the Oblivion Crisis. It is thought that the idleness of peacetime killed the city. Built as a frontier city to defend the Rift from the attacks of surrounding holds and keep bandits away, it lost all purpose when the Empire brought peace. The population slowly moved to Ivarstead and year after year, the city slowly faded. That peace is now over and the frontier is dangerous again.
When the war began the Jarl of the Rift began the reconstruction of Nimalten, the fortress now ready to stand the trials of war.

North Keep: In the northernmost edge of Falkreath Hold the ancient Nords built a fort to defend from Dwemer attack. Time grew the fort, from small outpost to mighty bulwark and then finally into a city. The Jarl of Falkreath keeps tight hold of trade coming from Cyrodiil, making the cities of Falkreath, Helgen and North Keep very rich. In skyrim being rich is a dangerous thing; a shining invite for thieves and cut-throats to come and steal what they desire.
Now North Keep, the so called 'jewel in the crown' of falkreath hold has been reinforced and readied not only for the predation of bandits but to withstand the oncoming tides of war. But for this city war is just another chance to see glory.

Heralchen Creek:: The ancient Dwemer built the greatest marvels of Skyrim. When they disappeared they left only ruins, albeit ruins of something magnificent. One of these marvels is the Helarchen Creek fortress. Built as a pumping station it is now is one of the centerpieces of the Pale's defensive system. In time, village grew around the fortress and now it must defend one of the most important trade routes of Northern Skyrim. Bandits and giant are dangerous? In this place, I think not.

Granite Hall:: In most cases a fortress is built to defend a settlement, but is some rare cases the settlement is the fortress. A towering dwemer construction, built layer upon layer of ancient craftsmanship amazed the ancient Nord settlers, who named it Granite Hall. Now it stands guard over the southern route through the Reach and offers respite to travellers from the Forsworn that roam beyond its walls.
