The Elder Scrolls VI: 8 Perfect Locations Bethesda Must Consider

3. Valenwood

The Elder Scrolls Online Valenwood
Bethesda

Maybe the most intriguing area of Tamriel left unexplored is the native homeland of the Bosmer Wood-Elves, Valenwood.

Despite being one of the smallest provinces, it also has a wide variety of environments, from mangrove swamps near the rocky coasts to sub-tropical rainforests further inland and a northern region which is rocky, sandy and shared with Elsweyr. Bosmer themselves live in small clan-houses along the coast or - most incredibly - mobile citie,s built around walking trees known as graht-oaks.

There is also bad blood between Valenwood and neighbouring Elsweyr. In addition to the neighbouring political turmoil, Valenwood has also been annexed by the Aldermi Domain, which has also seized Elsweyr.

Between their history of conflict and shared repression, a take on the Elsweyr/Valenwood conflict would be an amazing core concept for Elder Scrolls VI. They could be set as banding together to fight their common oppressor or vying for a better position with them.
