Dranil Kir is a mountainous island found off the coast of Auridon, amidst the province of the Summerset Isles. It has been an island of mystery, rumor to be surrounded by treacherous storms, and archaic traps. The island of Dranil Kir has been used by the Psijic Order of Artaeum to contain the Obscuros, a scrying device that projects a mage's perception to everyone in range. It is because of the supernatural powers of the Obscuros, the island is covered in poor weather.[1] The island has described as having disappeared through magical means at one point, likely by the Psijic Order.[2]
HistoryEdit
During the Interregnum in 2E 582, the Obscuros and the island of Dranil Kir were under the supervision of the Psijic Master of the Gazing Glass, Lilatha. At that time, the Obscuros was scattered centuries prior, in the hopes that a malevolent force would not use it for their own purposes. Ever since then, the island has been surrounded by harsh sea storms, a side-effect of its destruction.[1]
Lilatha traveled to the island to investigate the ancient Psijic scrying device and found out that the ruined complex on the Dranil Kir where the tool was kept was intruded by Telvanni Wizard Divayth Fyr. He was performing Daedric ritual but was interrupted by the Psijic monk. He intended to open a rift to a pocket dimension using a Dwarven device. Divayth was trying to locate certain Daedric artifact and was interested in cooperation with the Psijic monk but Lilatha declined to provide any information and urged him to conduct Daedric experiments elsewhere. This incident was later reported to the Ritemaster Iachesis.[3]
Sometime around the Planemeld, people's shadows were coming to life and killing their source. The Psijic Order decided to investigate and acquire the help of the Vestige, to rebuild the Obscuros, with the Liminal Lens and the Anuic Lantern. With the needed materials, the two traveled to Dranil Kir, but were ambushed by an agent of the Court of Bedlam. The agent was defeated and Lilatha commenced with the Obscuros ritual. In her visions, she saw the Clockwork City. The Psijic Master left Dranil Kir to report to the order on Artaeum.[4]
