Description
Drawn sometime between 2017-2018
In my mind I depict the city of Necrom, the "City of the Dead", as being situated on the precipice of a rising cliff, seperated from the mainland by a ravine, with the great walls of the city resembling the great skeleton of a beast, in reference to the monster from the in-game book '36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 34'
The "Skull" of the city is the Ancestor's Pyramid, located in the center of Necrom, and it is led by Lady Hekothah (an old name from TES I: Arena), Temple Matriarch of Necrom.
The halls of the pyramid are filled with temple offices, greenery, and water fixtures, it is a great honor for the Dunmer of Morrowind to be interred here, and many from across the province make pilgrimages to the city, bearing corpses up the mountain and into the walls of the necropolis.
At the top of the pyramid is a sacred tomb where it is said that the greatest of the Dunmer ancestors are interred, such as the prophet Veloth, the General Nerevar, and the many saints of the Temple.
