Gold Road
- Brand-New Elder Scrolls Story – For the first time in The Elder Scrolls Online, a new Daedric Prince walks Tamriel. Forgotten to even her most devout followers, Ithelia has returned. Why has she returned now? And what are her followers’ plans for West Weald? Embark on an adventure to preserve reality before the threads of fate unravel in Ithelia’s wake.
- Explore a New Zone – Venture into West Weald, an Imperial region last seen in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, now threatened by the encroaching Valenwood jungle and Daedric incursions. Defend the Colovian capital city of Skingrad, investigate the wilds of the Dawnwood, and explore ancient Ayleid ruins and the mountainous Colovian Highlands, all endangered by the chaos of Ithelia’s return.

Collect special skills and modify their effects and functionality to make them yours. With Scribing, you truly have the freedom and power to play your way.
