The people of Atmora cried out in sadness and anger, and for revenge against the Snow Elves the people were united with a common cause for war against the Elves. When Ysgramor and his sons returned to Atmora, they told the stories and events that happened in Skyrim. Thus, Elvish pogroms razed the city of Saarthal on what became known as the Night of Tears. Only Ysgramor and his two sons survived, and escaped back to Atmora. The Atmorans tried to keep the secret of the artifact they found, but the Snow Elves learned of it. The Atmorans had discovered something deep beneath the surface, when they were building Saarthal. However, there was a theory which raised the possibility of the Snow Elves' attack on Saarthal for another reason. At the time, men were viewed by Snow Elves as being primitive and animal-like, and it was seen as no great moral remission to stop the spread of a potentially disastrous invasive species, who would destabilize the Tamrielic ecosystem.
However, the Snow Elves saw that the Nords, with their considerably shorter life expectancy, fast rates of physical maturation and expedient (by Elvish standards) reproductive cycle, would eventually overtake them if left unchecked. For a long while, relations between the Snow Elves and the Atmorans were relatively peaceful. The Atmorans settled the area that in the future would be known as Winterhold hold they eventually built a city in the region and called it Saarthal. New archaeological expeditions made in 3E 344 date the earliest Human settlements in Hammerfell, High Rock and Cyrodiil at ME800-1000, centuries earlier than Ysgramor. The Nords were just one of the ancestors of the Nedic peoples, and were the only ones who failed to find a peaceful relations and accommodation with the Mer who already occupied Tamriel. Humans had already occupied parts of Tamriel, which included the proto-Cyrodillians, the ancestors of the Bretons, the aboriginals of Hammerfell, and a vanished Human population of Morrowind. It is said that he and his companion were fleeing the civil war in Atmora, which at that time had a sizable population. However, Ysgramor and his followers were not the first to come to Tamriel, the continent that Skyrim is located in. According to legend,Ysgramor landed first at Hsaarik Head, at the extreme northern tip of Skyrim's Broken Cape. It was the first region of Tamriel to be settled by humans, who migrated there from the land of Atmora in the far north, across the Sea of Ghosts. They called the land Mereth, in recognition of the vast number of Mer that lived there.
Skyrim, also known as the Old Kingdom or the Fatherland is the home of the Nords.ĭuring the Merethic Era, a legendary Atmorans leader namedYsgramor, led an expedition from Atmora to the land that would later be known as Skyrim.
