"Only the Aldmeri—the High Elves and their noble allies, the Wood Elves and Cat-Men—have the wisdom and restraint to peaceably rule the disparate peoples of Tamriel ... The world has gone wrong, and we must put it right. March proudly beneath the eagle banner of the Aldmeri Dominion! " — Aicantar of Shimmerene[1]

The Elden Accord was a treaty signed by Queen Ayrenn of the Kingdom of Alinor, King Aeradan Camoran of the Camoran Dynasty, and Lord Gharesh-ri of the Elsweyr Confederacy, which resulted in the formation of the First Aldmeri Dominion in 2E 580.[2][3][4]

In the midst of the Interregnum, Queen Ayrenn was aware of the dire threats menacing the world and saw it as the proper duty of the Elves to put things right.[5] At the same time, the Bosmer were in the midst of a civil war and the Khajiit were facing the Knahaten Flu. Both petitioned the Kingdom of Alinor for aid, and their call was answered. In return Queen Ayrenn asked the Bosmer and Khajiit to stand by her side as invading armies moved towards southwest Tamriel, to which they agreed.[6][7][8]
