鸦石镇简史，卷一
前言
鸦石镇是过去两百年间晨风省最有趣的殖民地之一。这座小镇在短时间内实在发生了太多事情，受影响的居民不计其数，使我觉得有必要用这些篇幅来记下它丰富的历史。研究期间，我在鸦石镇住了将近三年，因此也认识了不少以鸦石镇为家的丹莫。希望读者们体察，在这样一个未开化且不宜人居的土地上生活，究竟需要多少的坚忍与毅力。
鸦石镇成立于第三纪元427年，当时东帝国贸易公司在索瑟海姆岛的南端发现了一处蕴藏量丰富的黑檀矿脉。花了几个月完成本镇的建设工程后，矿坑便立刻开始出产黑檀矿石，并运往天际的风舵城。到了第三纪元432年，有超过三十名以上的人口住在此地，全都仰赖矿业维生。此时鸦石镇的居民几乎全为帝国人，仅有少数几名诺德人，而他们全都是被矿坑所带来的财富吸引而来。
当第三纪元433年湮灭危机爆发时，鸦石镇几乎未受到梅鲁涅斯·大衮的势力影响，一切照常运作。当时驻守在鸦石镇的帝国守卫被召回赛瑞迪尔以对抗入侵，不过却也有少数几名士兵留下防守黑檀矿坑免受强盗侵害。虽然湮灭之门究竟有无在索瑟海姆开启不得而知，但至少在正式纪录上从未发生过这样的事情。.
到了第四纪元的元年，在奥德鲁恩毁灭后，许多丹莫豪族纷纷派出族人寻找重建家园之所。其中瑞多然家族所派出的团队由布莱拉·莫尔凡领导，他们直接往索瑟海姆出发。在快速地与东帝国贸易公司协商（据说有笔不算小的金钱往来）之后，布莱拉的团队获准在鸦石镇落脚，而他们也迅速成为这座矿业殖民地的一份子。丹莫证明了他们是刻苦耐劳且可靠的矿工，这不仅让东帝国贸易公司留下深刻印象，也加深了两者间的关系。
原本一切都相当顺利，直到命运的那一天来临。第四纪元5年，红山突然爆发，大量的烈焰甚至越过鬼魂之海直接冲击索瑟海姆。鸦石镇因此受到重创，不仅有几座石造建筑倒塌，还有许多木造建筑全毁。讽刺的是，矿坑在这起事件中再次被证明了是鸦石镇的救星，大多数人于事发当时正在地底工作，因此完全未受到火山爆发影响。然而，这起事件还是令居民付出了代价。鸦石镇在防卫上极度仰赖附近的霜蛾堡垒，但红山这次爆发几乎将堡垒自索瑟海姆岛完全抹去。少数生存下来的士兵进入鸦石镇，并试图建立一个临时驻扎地，然而他们的人数实在太少，不足以应付鸦石镇所面对的潜在威胁。于是，在东帝国贸易公司批准下，布莱拉引进了一些瑞多然家族的精英部队“瑞多然禁卫队”来填补空缺。这群守卫完美地取代了帝国士兵遗留的空缺，自那时起便一直守护鸦石镇至今。
The History of Raven Rock, Vol. I
History of Raven Rock Volume I
Forward
Raven Rock is one of the more interesting colonies of Morrowind of the last two centuries. So much has happened to this tiny town in such a short amount of time, and so many lives have been affected by it, I felt it necessary to describe its rich history within these volumes. During my research, I lived in Raven Rock for almost three years, and I got to know many of my fellow Dunmer who call Raven Rock their home. I hope that my readers will appreciate the amount of fortitude and perseverance that it must take to endure life in such an inhospitable and untamed land.
Raven Rock was founded in 3E 427 by the East Empire Company in response to the discovery of a rich ebony mine on the southern edge of the island of Solstheim. The construction of the town took several months, and the mine immediately started yielding ebony ore that the miner's shipped to Windhelm in Skyrim. By 3E 432, the town was home to over thirty people, all of whom depended on the mine for their livelihood. At this time, Raven Rock was almost exclusively inhabited by Imperials and a few Nords who were drawn to the mine's wealth.
When the Oblivion Crisis arose in 3E 433, Raven Rock remained largely untouched by Mehrunes Dagon's forces and work continued as usual. The bulk of the Imperial Guard that was stationed in Raven Rock was recalled to Cyrodiil to fight the invading forces, but a few soldiers remained behind in order to protect the ebony mine from bandits. It's uncertain whether any Oblivion Gates ever opened on Solstheim, as there appears to be no record of such an event ever occurring there.
In the first year of the Fourth Era, after the destruction of Ald'ruhn, many of the Dunmer Great Houses sent out small groups of their own to seek places to reestablish themselves. House Redoran's group was led by Brara Morvayn who immediately struck out for Solstheim. After some quick negotiations with the East Empire Company (and some speculate quite a bit of coin changing hands), Brara's group was allowed to settle in Raven Rock where they quickly became a part of the mining colony's way of life. The Dunmer proved to be both hard-working and reliable when it came to working in the mines, impressing the East Empire Company and solidifying their relationship.
All was going quite well until that fateful day in 4E 5 when the Red Mountain suddenly erupted, sending a massive blast across the Sea of Ghosts that struck Solstheim with its full fury. Raven Rock was heavily damaged by this wave of force, which toppled several of its stone structures and obliterated many of the wooden ones. Ironically, the mine once again proved to be the town's saving grace, as most of the population of Raven Rock was working underground at the time, and was completely shielded from the blast. This event wasn't without cost, however. Raven Rock was heavily dependent on nearby Fort Frostmoth for its defense, but the eruption had almost completely wiped it from the face of Solstheim. The few soldiers that survived took residence in Raven Rock itself and attempted to set up a makeshift garrison there, but these scant few were hardly a match for potential threats to their town. With the East Empire Company's permission, Brara brought in some of House Redoran's elite "Redoran Guard" to fill the void. The guard proved to be an ideal replacement for the fallen Imperial soldiers and have been guarding the town ever since.
