Sky Haven Temple

Sky Haven Temple was built in the mountains of Skyrim and inhabited by Reman Cyrodiil's Akaviri Dragonguard during the First Era.[1] Its placement made it both secure and ideal for spotting dragons.[1][2] Eventually, the temple (really more of a fortress) was abandoned, though it may have been used by the Blades as late as the Third Era.[3] By the Fourth Era, the place had become just another inaccessible ruin with Forsworn squatting around its outskirts.[4]

[edit] Alduin's Wall

Alduin's Wall

In 1E 2812, Emperor Reman II permitted construction of Alduin's Wall, a pictorial representation of the Dragonguard's history with and knowledge of dragons, including the prophecy that, upon the outbreak of civil war in Skyrim, the return of Alduin would accompany the return of the dragons, and the World-Eater would threaten to live up to his name.[1][4][5] The Emperor returned in 1E 2818 to dedicate it and consecrate the Akaviri Blood Seal, which allowed the temple to be closed off until a Dragonborn returned to unlock its knowledge and power.[1]
