The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Carved into the frozen cliffs southwest of Winterhold, Sightless Pit is a gaping, spiral chasm that descends deep into the earth—its walls slick with frost and lined with jagged rock. A failed attempt at a Dwemer excavation, the pit has since fallen into darkness, now infested by the Falmer, whose blind eyes and twisted rituals give the place its name. The descent is treacherous and one-way, dropping adventurers into a series of ancient chambers and glowing fungus-lit tunnels that grow increasingly alien and hostile. Deep within lies the Temple of Xrib, a forgotten subterranean ruin with traces of long-lost Dwemer presence now overtaken by Falmer cults and chaurus nests. Sightless Pit is more than a ruin—it’s a descent into madness and shadow, where light dies quickly, and the cries of the unseen echo endlessly. Those who enter should be prepared to face the cold, the blind, and the depths themselves.
