Endeavor to Skyrim
Throughout the Merethic Era, Ysgramor and the Atmorans he brought out of Atmora called the area Mereth, in distinguishment of the unfathomable number of Mer that existed there. It was the first area of Tamriel to be settled by people, who relocated there from the place that is known for Atmora in the far north, over the Sea of Ghosts. As stated by legend, Ysgramor arrived first at Hsaarik Head, at the great northern tip of Skyrim's Broken Cape.

Ysgramor structured the Five Hundred Companions.
The Atmorans settled the territory that later on might be known as Winterhold hold; they in the end fabricated a city in the district and called it Saarthal. For a long while, relations between the Snow Elves and the Atmorans were generally serene.

Notwithstanding, the Snow Elves saw that the Nords, with their impressively shorter future, quick rates of physical development and convenient (by Elvish benchmarks) regenerative cycle, would in the long run surpass them if left unchecked. At the time, men were seen by Snow Elves as being primitive and creature like, and it was seen as no extraordinary good abatement to stop the spread of a conceivably awful intrusive animal types, who might destabilize the Tamrielic environment. On the other hand, there was a hypothesis which raised the likelihood of the Snow Elves' assault on Saarthal for an alternate reason. The Atmorans had found something profound underneath the surface, when they were building Saarthal. The Atmorans attempted to keep the mystery of the antiquity they found, however the Snow Elves educated of it. Subsequently, Elvish massacres leveled the city of Saarthal on what got known as the Night of Tears. [3] Only Ysgramor and his two children survived, and got away once again to Atmora.
The Return
At the point when Ysgramor and his children came back to Atmora, they told the stories and occasions that happened in Skyrim. The populace of Atmora yelled out in trouble and outrage, and for retribution against the Snow Elves; the individuals were united with a typical reason for war against the Elves. Moreover, seeing the dubious peace which had created between the different factions, Ysgramor distinguished the open door to transform their situation into an uniting power for mankind. Inside a couple of years, Ysgramor was set to come back to Skyrim with an armed force known as the "Five Hundred Companions", made out of the legends of the Atmoran Civil War.[2] On the Day of Final Passage, the Five Hundred Companions left the port of Jylkurfyk to come back to Skyrim.[4]
Atmoran-Snow Elf War
The Atmoran-Snow Elf War occurred in the late Merethic Era. One celebrated fight, which happened late in the war and happened to be the defining moment for the Atmorans, was the Battle of the Moesring. Throughout the fight, the Atmorans were winning and it created the impression that they might be successful, until the entry of the Snow Prince. He mobilized and headed his strengths into battle, rousing the troops of the last remaining armed force of Snow Elves. A few of the best Nord warrior-saints fell before the Snow Prince, which included Ingjaldr White-Eye, Ulfgi Anvil-Hand, Strom the White, Freida Oaken-Wand and Heimdall the Frenzied. The tide seemed to have turned for the Snow Elves, until the Snow Prince murdered Jofrior. Finna, who was just twelve years of age and girl of Jofrior, looked as her mother was butchered by the Snow Prince. In her wrath and bitterness, Finna grabbed her mother's sword and tossed it at the Snow Prince, which struck him in the bosom and executed him. The demise of the Snow Prince smashed the ethical quality and inspiration of the remaining Snow Elf warriors. Numerous Snow Elves fled, and the individuals who stayed on the front line were killed.[5]
The war might end quickly later with the cleansing of the vast majority of the Snow Elves in Skyrim and their human progress might be decimated. The Five Hundred Companions, without much safety, drove the Snow Elves out and were knighted in the establishments for the Ysgramor Dynasty. [6] [7]
Establishing of Whiterun
After the war against the Snow Elves finished, the Five Hundred Companions chose to break into particular gatherings to discover their own specific route in the recently established area. The group of Jorrvaskr, headed by Jeek of the River, ventured around the new land until they happened upon a baffling yet wondrous sight; "a landmark of a feathered creature, whose eyes and bill were opened in fire." This landmark that might soon later referred to be known as Skyforge, was more seasoned than the Snow Elves themselves. This incredible landmark was about as old as Nirn and might have been "some leftover of the god's deliberations to render a heaven in Mundus before the shattering of Lorkhan." A city was developed around Jorrvaskr, and this city was known as Whiterun, with the introductory zone around it later known as Whiterun Hold.[8]
Establishing of Windhelm
Ysgramor and his gathering voyaged eastwards, heading towards Yngol Barrow, and in the wake of ceasing there, Ysgramor's eyes turned to the south, where a waterway met the ocean. He declared that he and his team might assembled an incredible city, in landmark to the glories of Mankind, thus he could look upon his child's last resting place and "feel that his line might know peace in this new home that was never known in Atmora." The city was fabricated with a long scaffold extending over the White River, with a significant part of the city made of stone. This city might be known as Windhelm, the City of Kings.[9]
