The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Clustered at the edge of a long-forgotten forest trail, these low stone cairns mark the resting places of warriors who fought in a war no history recalls. Each cairn is braided with ashwood branches, bound tightly with red-dyed thread that never rots. On certain nights, black-cloaked figures gather silently among the mounds, leaving tokens of iron and salt. If approached, they vanish without sound—leaving behind only a single word carved into stone: "Oathbound."
