Locations in Coldharbour before.. spoiler warning

Sakiri

So I find myself trying to figure what was where, since many things were pulled from Nirn.

Library of Dusk and its surroundings Im near 100% certain is/was Delodiil(mentioned in Fighters Guild quests), but what Im more curious about is the Reaver Citadel and the Hollow City itself.

The Citadel area they say may be recognizable as its from Tamriel, but I cant place it.

Hollow City is an odd one too as I cant even place the architecture. It looks slightly Alyeid, but slightly not, and the few residents left are man and modern mer(Dunmer bard in the inn for example) so some things arent lining up.

Im a lore nerd so theres that. Ideas?

Cicero Eudoxius in the General store tells you that the city was Imperial before it was drawn into Coldharbor.

Not sure about the Citadel, but has a lot of similarities with Daggerfall so I'd be betting it is Breton. The black 'spikes' on the corner of some roofs can be found in Daggerfall and the general architecture seems similar.

Maybe was actually in one of the older games then. Not finding anuthing on Google. Bah.

I think ESO is set before all of the previous games so I'd doubt anything now in Coldharbor would be in any of the other titles.

True, but some of those cities have been there awhile.

What Im curious about now, where was Abargarlas and Delodiil?

*ponders*

Abargalas is NE of the Imperial City in a cave in Obliviion. So I doubt it would have moved much. Sideways cave

Delodiil was in the 'Heartland' so basically around where the Imperial city is.The Whithering of Delodiil

Again, just making it clear that anything drawn into Coldharbor is unlikely ever to leave so it probably won't be found outside of Coldharbor in any of the other games.

I hope this helps.

In regards to the Hollow City, someone posted this on Reddit a few weeks ago:

Im vaguely remembering that cave in Oblivion(dear Innoruuk its been years). Library of Dusk has at least one paper in it talking about the Mortuum Vivicus and the other king having it.

My theory was that when the city vanished, it was pulled into Coldharbour. No idea why though.

Abagarlas having a shrine to Meridia in it is interesting(Oblivion) because that city worshipped Molag Bal.

Now I want to take my assassin through there again. Bah lol.
