The Systres (otherwise known as the Systres Archipelago and Systres Isles)[1] is small chain of islands located in the Abecean Sea considered the westernmost part of Tamriel.[2] They are located southwest of Hammerfell and northwest of the Summerset Isles off the coast of Lillandril, in close proximity to Pankor and Eyevea.

It is made up of four islands: High Isle, Amenos,[1] Y'ffelon, and Galen.[3][4]

History[]

When Tamriel was being ravaged by the Thrassian Plague, the All Flags Navy launched their invasion on Thras from the Systres Archipelago.[5]

The history of High Isle and the Systres Archipelago goes back to the early years of the Akaviri Potentate, who took over the rule of the Reman Empire after the assassination of Reman Cyrodiil III in 1E 2920, deeply connecting it to the rest of Tamriel.[3]

When the Akaviri Potentate took over, they sent all the Reman malcontents to the jungled Amenos, turning it into a prison colony. The islands began as an Imperial holding and changed hands a couple of times. The people in the Colovian Estates ended up selling it to the Bretons for a while, then it was re-acquired by the Empire.[3]

By 2E 864, the islands were considered by the Empire to be Hammerfell's territory.[2]
