Part I: The Emperor’s Assassination and the Hero’s Destiny
In the waning years of the Third Era, the province of Cyrodiil bore witness to the assassination of Emperor Uriel Septim VII by the sinister Mythic Dawn cult. With his dying breath, the Emperor entrusted his Amulet of Kings to a seemingly insignificant prisoner, unwittingly setting in motion a chain of events that would change the course of history.
This hero, later known as the Champion of Cyrodiil, would rise from the depths of the Imperial City’s prison to become a pivotal figure in the battle against the forces of darkness that threatened the very fabric of the Empire.
As they ventured forth into the land of Cyrodiil, the Champion would discover their true destiny: to close the gates of Oblivion that had been flung open by the machinations of the Daedric Prince Mehrunes Dagon and his mortal followers.
Part II: The Crisis and the Dragonfires
The Oblivion Crisis was a time of great turmoil and strife, as the death of Emperor Uriel Septim VII had severed the barrier between the mortal realm and the Daedric planes of Oblivion. With each passing day, the gates of Oblivion spewed forth legions of Daedra, bent on the destruction of the mortal world.
In order to restore the barrier and save the Empire, the Champion of Cyrodiil needed to find the Emperor’s last living heir, Martin Septim, and light the Dragonfires once more. This ancient ritual would serve to reseal the gates of Oblivion and thwart Mehrunes Dagon’s invasion.
The Champion’s journey led them across the breadth of Cyrodiil, where they encountered both friends and foes, and faced innumerable challenges in their quest to locate the lost heir and restore the Dragonfires.
Part III: The Shattered Order and the Hero’s Trials
As the Champion of Cyrodiil sought to restore order to the land, they became embroiled in the affairs of the various factions and guilds that held sway in Cyrodiil. From the noble Knights of the Nine to the shadowy Dark Brotherhood, the Champion’s actions would leave a lasting impact on the province’s future.
Through their trials and tribulations, the Champion forged a legend of their own, growing in strength, skill, and wisdom. With each victory and each defeat, they inched closer to their ultimate destiny: the final confrontation with the forces of Oblivion.
Part IV: The Battle for Bruma and the Great Gate
The Oblivion Crisis reached its zenith at the Battle for Bruma, a desperate struggle to defend the last bastion of resistance against the encroaching Daedric hordes. The Champion of Cyrodiil, now a battle-hardened warrior, led the charge, rallying the forces of the Empire against the seemingly insurmountable tide of darkness.
In the midst of the chaos, the Champion made a daring gambit to enter the Great Gate of Oblivion and retrieve the fabled Great Sigil Stone, a powerful artifact that held the key to sealing the gates once and for all.
Against all odds, the Champion succeeded in their mission, and with the Great Sigil Stone in hand, the tide of the battle began to turn. The forces of Oblivion were pushed back, and the Empire began to hope once more.
Part V: The Battle of the Imperial City and the Champion’s Legacy
The final confrontation between the forces of Mehrunes Dagon and the Empire unfolded in the heart of the Imperial City. With the Great Sigil Stone in their possession, the Champion of Cyrodiil and Martin Septim marched towards the Imperial City, determined to put an end to the Oblivion Crisis once and for all.
As the battle raged around them, the Champion and Martin fought their way to the Temple of the One, where the Dragonfires were to be lit. Yet, in a shocking turn of events, Mehrunes Dagon himself appeared, intent on destroying the last hope for the Empire.
In a moment of self-sacrifice, Martin shattered the Amulet of Kings, merging with the spirit of Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time, to become a mighty avatar. In a titanic struggle, Akatosh-Martin banished Mehrunes Dagon back to Oblivion, sealing the gates forever and saving the Empire from destruction.
In the aftermath of the epic battle, the Champion of Cyrodiil was hailed as a hero, their deeds immortalized in song and story. Their legacy would live on, inspiring countless others to take up the mantle of heroism in the ever-evolving world of The Elder Scrolls.
