Tucked deep in the Velothi Mountains, southeast of Riften, the Rift-Morrowind Gate marks the rugged and politically tense border between Skyrim and Morrowind. Flanked by steep cliffs and ancient stonework, the gate serves as a critical mountain pass—one of the few traversable routes between the two provinces. Though largely unguarded in peacetime, remnants of old barricades and watchposts remain, evidence of past conflicts and the ever-shifting relationship between the Nords and Dunmer. Pilgrims, refugees, and traders once passed through in droves, especially after the Red Year, but now the gate stands quiet—its silence heavy with memory. The Rift-Morrowind Gate is more than a crossing—it’s a scar in the stone, where culture, history, and hardship collide, and where the wind that blows between provinces carries both ash and snow.
