  • Forgotten Vale – From the Wayshrine of Learning, go north along the river past the arch seen and between the two broken pillars afterwards. Directly after going through the two pillars, a very tall pillar is visible behind some rocks. Next to this tall pillar there should be a chest, a skeleton, and an Unknown Book, Vol. I next to the tallest pillar.

Summary[]

This is one of the unique Ancient Falmer Tomes found in the Forgotten Vale.

The content of this book is written in the ancient Falmer language. However a translated copy, called The Betrayed, can be obtained if it is sold to Urag gro-Shub in the College of Winterhold.

The poem relates to the Snow Elves' slow regression into the twisted Falmer. The title relates to what surviving Snow Elves call the modern Falmer.

Translated Content (The Betrayed)[]

The Betrayed
by Engwe Emeloth

And when the snow prince fell to the ground.
The ice elves divided above and below.
Now vanquished and brutally bound.
One moment had shattered all they did know.

The once cool wind on their skin.
Now replaced with the heat of the flame.
And a pride once felt deep within.
Forgotten along with their name.

Torn from their home of ice and frost.
Thrown into the pitch black dread of night.
Living in fear as their minds become lost.
As their eyes began dimming the light.

Chained and enslaved.
What once was light turned to blackness.
Alone and betrayed.
Sinking deeper into madness.
