Where can I get a Akaviri Motif?

I'm just returning to the game and not even VR 6 yet but I'm curious on how to get a motif so I can make the armor? I saw people saying I could get it from Cryodiil but I hate PvP. Any other way? Thanks
P.S- Just to be clear, Im looking for the motif itself, not just pieces.

    Thanks for all the answers. So If I buy them with AP, is it chapters? Or is it like a chest piece? I would want to avoid spending 500k on a chest peice that I might not have for too long.

    You buy the motif in chapters.... the large ones... Chests etc are 500k, others are 250k and the smallest are 100k.... I believe the entire motif is 4.5mil AP or so.

    You can either buy it with AP from cyrodiil vendors and the cheapest one is like 100K AP or buy it from guild stores whihc will probably be more cause you know AP to gold scams.

    If you don't want to PVP, check the guild kiosks. I don't know if Akaviri is available as a book instead of chapters. If it is, it might be for sale on the crown store. Can't say for sure, as I don't shop there much.

    As a rough guideline, motif pages can be found in guild stores with gold cost 1/3 of AP cost.
    Ex. A 500k AP chests or staves page is selling in the vicinity of 165k gold. On the bright side, you can earn 500k AP in a few days and buy your big pieces that way, while searching guild stores for smaller pieces. You can get a better AP/gold ratio on the smaller pieces, as those sellers are typically a bit more desperate for gold.

    Who the hell is getting 1:3?...... 1:4-5 is generally the best you'll get NA/PC... that being said, people are getting a little tighter on their AP with the imminent arrival of undaunted helms/shoulders in a travelling trader near you.

    I'm saving all my spendable AP so I can afford an Akiviri hat motif! Chalman has the wind whistling through massive holes in it's structure but I'm not repairing them until i get my Akiviri hat!! haha.

    I bought every page through others. Have all pages as of tonight. Cost well over a million gold.

    I felt like a good deal was 45-50k for pieces that are 250k ap, and 100k for pieces that are 500k ap.

    Now that's me feeling like it's reasonable. Doubt many sellers will match this price, but I had a few who did no problem.

    But man, grinding the guild stores, I still haven't send an axes, shields (500k ap for shields!!) bows at all. Not even once. Luckily, through messaging others I was able to find a few cool people to help.

    I guesS it's hard to turn it down when some random guys messages and offers 200k gold for two items. But some really thought that was a low offer.

    So best of luck to anyone trying to complete it. It's super super expensive either way.

    Xbox, na if anyone's insterested. Hit me up if ya need something crafted, have every single motif page in the game :)
