Wonders lie within the realm of Valenwood, if you are brave enough, or lucky enough, to reach into the depths. Dark forests and towering trees give way to rolling plains and cliffs of golden stone. Tribes of Bosmer, rumored to be cannibals, keep ancient traditions alive, while elves within the bustling cosmopolitan cities embrace the luxury that comes from trade and Dominion rule. Venture into a world where nature is allowed to flourish, where the very trees themselves might be out for blood, and where beasts have mastered the art of lurking in the shadows. Explore ruins of the ancient Ayleids, and discover what happens when magic and the living world combine.

The Green Pact

"Do not harm the Green. Do not eat plants. Do not kill wantonly. Do not adopt the forms of beasts. Consume the dead. Live by these tenets and walk in Y'ffre's grace."

The Green Pact governs not only a Bosmer's own life, but the lives of visitors to their wooded land. Travelers who are seen gathering ingredients or food from plants may find themselves facing down a slew of angry Bosmer armed with bows and full of righteous fury.

Green Pact

The Spinners

"Do not anger the Spinners, for they understand the secrets of our kind."

Keepers of lore and tellers of tales, the Spinners jealously guard Bosmer history and ensure that nothing is forgotten. Every triumph, defeat, heroic deed, and crime is preserved forever more.

Valenwood Pre-release

Lure of the WIlds

"It's a patchwork city, Arenthia. Wood Orcs, Khajiit, Imperials, even a few of those barbaric northerners. Nords, they call themselves. All mingling together within ancient walls."

Valenwood's prerelease, Valenwood: Lure of the Wilds, will take place in the Arenthia Hills region of the province, the northeast corner that borders both Elsweyr and Cyrodiil. Tensions run high between the Dominion and the Empire, while old grudges threaten to resurface between the Khajiit and Bosmer. Explore the great city of Arenthia, or seek out the esteemed augur in Pa'alat, a Khajiit town high up in the rocky cliffs that form the eastern border. Just remember - there are many who will try to keep you from your goal. Valenwood is not for the faint of heart.

Current Progress

Beyond Skyrim: Valenwood's developers are currently hard at work on Valenwood's prerelease. With writing for the prerelease complete, 2D and 3D development is in full swing. The focus is on the city of Arenthia, melting pot of Valenwood's north and a hub of commerce between the Empire and the Dominion, and its immediate environs. Our artists are busy creating everything from tiny insects that serve as alchemy ingredients to weapon sets for the Wood Orcs scattered throughout the province.
