For 72 years, Soir Aube ruled the empire as a powerful emperor. But for all these years, he had never been the ruler of his own dreams and nightmares. He had seen the Prophecy of the second Oblivion Crisis, where Tamriel was in ruins and fire was all across the land. It is 21 of Morning Star, 4E 304. The birthday of the Emperor Soir Aube and the year of the dusk of an empire. These are the closing days of the Fourth Era. And the last hours... Of his life.
Recap: After the Emperor's assassination, a fragile alliance was formed between Commander Larrius Scinia, the ruthless merchant Telemachus Dion, the psychotic Bosmer Set, the undercover cultist and second in command of the Rising Sun Julie, the Seer Fia Shadow-Scar, her companion and loyal servant Fang Fr'aj, Julie's apprentice Ja'rok and Xavier.
Set, determined to free Maria from Aratius' control, ordered Xervish to open a portal, to take them to his castle in High Rock. The companionship followed them through and appeared on the far side of the portal, where they were ambushed by Slave Traders. Their leader, a Mr Cray, had them taken back to his prison camp, where he had them branded and imprisoned. Cray punished Isis, for trying to escape the camp, by inflicting emotional pain on Julie, by having Set's eye removed in front of her. The Imperial Slave Trader then had a sexual encounter with Maria, in her posessed state and agreed to sell the slaves to her as they were a liability to him.
Maria now has posession of the Companionship and she and her master have plans for them...
All of the Roleplayers can begin in the slave camp (near Bruma). Several members of the companionship reside there, who are currently trying to defeat Telemachus and stop his holocaust.
Alternatively, roleplayers could start as a member of Telemachus' group or as a member of the Rising Sun (The cult who assassinated the Emperor).
