Lore:Eye of Argonia

The Eye of Argonia is a treasured artifact described as the "priceless king's jewel of ancient Black Marsh".

Little is known of the eye, but it has captured the imagination of treasure hunter's throughout all of Tamriel as to what it is capable of. Some theories included this invaluable gem being a key the "lost city of Black Marsh", or that it could serve as a gateway to undiscovered lands.

At some point during the Interregnum of the Second Era Lark of Rosgard, a mysterious masked thief sought to obtain the Eye. Years later Cyrus the Redguard and the Cyro-Nordic captain Tobias both wished to attain the prized artifact as well, although it's unknown if either of them ever succeeded in doing so. An archeologist and author by the name of Rolard Nordssen aspired to claim the fabled eye, a potential accomplishment which he considered even greater than his prior feats. Circa 3E 427, the Nerevarine mentioned the legendary jewel as a means to cover for his true intentions to infiltrate the chambers of the Common Tongue press printers. There exists dubious tales about the jewel's discovery.

Notes
