Not to be confused with Murkwood.

Murkmire is an upcoming region in The Elder Scrolls Online. It will be situated south of Shadowfen in western Black Marsh and will be a neutral zone. The region will have different breeds of Argonian and different creatures, including the little-known Naga.

History

The vicinity of the region's city Gideon was once considered Kothringi homeland, until the race was wiped out by the Knahaten Flu in 2E 560.

A trade deal was brokered between Gideon and Leyawiin in 2E 582 to open a trade route between the two cities, though they are often closed during the monsoon seasons.
