Imagine a suicidally aggressive pterodactyl crossed with the swarming tendencies of Africanized bees and you’re only getting halfway there. My first lesson in how Morrowind really worked was delivered on the way around to the mountain road: CLIFF RACERS ARE ASSHOLES. She was obnoxious, but I can always use more money to train, so off I went, taking a path that circled around the big magic fence and got us to the road leading in. As I passed through, I found a woman who said that she needed an escort to the Ghostgate shrine. It’s an obvious high-level area, and once I’d figured that out, I’d comfortably forgotten about it as I was doing my tour.Įventually my tour took me to Ald’ruhn, which is the town with the gigantic crab carcass and a bunch of very surly locals. It’s a magical wall surrounding the central area of the continent, a blasted wasteland with the gigantic Morrowind volcano at its center. See, one of the things you notice pretty early on in modded Morrowind is the Ghostfence. It was the Ghostgate, and it was a doozy. It was that ONE, though, that showed me that the tour had officially ended. Barring one, all were either in town or a stone’s throw from town. Fulfilling the pilgrimage was one of the reasons why I’d been DOING my grand tour, as most of the shrines were easily accessible using a combination of various travel tactics. Unlike the other factions which start you off easy, the Tribunal insists that you undergo a pretty epic pilgrimage to seven different shrines scattered across the continent. Their temples and holy warriors (called “Ordinators” are pretty much everywhere.
They’re basically Morrowind’s state religion, dedicated to venerating the living(!) gods Almalexia, Vivec, and Sotha Sil. See, one of the biggest factions in the game is the “Tribunal Temple”. Yes, when last I chatted with you about Morrowind, I was talking about how the game had turned into a grand tour of all the different citie and whatnot, adn how I didn’t need to get off the beaten track much because the transportation systems were covering the bases. That ended.
