This page describes the Bosmer's settling on the shores of Valenwood in a different way than most historical records describe. It says that the Bosmer (or Aldmer/Altmer) of the time wanted to be free of the main-stream way of life on Alinor (or the Summerset Isles) and instead wanted to live a life of simplicity in the forest and because of this left their home of their own accord, however, in texts that I have read in alot of lore articles and in-game tomes it describes the Aldmer/Altmer landing on the shores of the province in ancient times and leaving some of their own voluteering peoples behind so that they would have ties to the Tamrielic mainland when in a time of need (this would explain the supposed pact of old that they made which gave the Thalmor the right to annex Valenwood at the beggining of the Aldmeri Dominion's revival). In my opinion the latter tale is more likely due to the lore behind it but what do you think?
