The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Tucked into the southern edge of Falkreath Hold, where the Jerall Mountains begin to rise into the rugged highlands of Craglorn, the Falkreath–Craglorn Border Gate stands as a rarely used and weather-worn passage between provinces. Built from dark stone and reinforced timber, the gate once served as a checkpoint for trade and travel between Skyrim and Hammerfell, though it now sees little use beyond the occasional caravan or patrol. Moss creeps along the walls, and snow piles against the rusting iron portcullis. A small watchtower overlooks the trail, usually manned by a lone guard or left empty in harsher months. The road beyond becomes steep and treacherous, winding into lands less governed and far more wild. While the gate itself is quiet, stories persist of strange figures crossing it under moonlight and of old pacts struck in its shadow. It remains a forgotten threshold—marking the edge of Skyrim, and the beginning of something stranger.
