Imperial Chronicle

The Imperial Chronicle is a collection of annals detailing the history of Tamriel in the Third Era. It is compiled and maintained by monks of the Order of Julianos.

During the Second Era, this order of monks maintained a chronicle before its amalgamation into the Imperial Church. Its scope, however, was largely restricted to events within Cyrodiil. Empress Kintyra endorsed the monks to record the history of the entire Third Empire, authorising a reinvigorated Imperial Chronicle.

The anonymous monastic writers of the Chronicle, cloistered within their temple on the banks of Lake Rumare, have limited sources on the events they detail. Much of its content is mired in hearsay, hyperbole and typical monkish moralism.
