Elder Scrolls: Black Horse Newsletter 2a23

Description

This is one of the earliest copies of the Black Horse Newsletter. The second incarnation of The Black Horse Courier, the earliest newspaper known, the newsletter has provided the account of all distinguished and commemorable news for over eight hundred years. Originally only servicing Cyrodiil, the newspaper expanded after the Third Daedric Invasion to cover all of Tamriel. 

It's had several incarnations with interruptions or closures do to conflicts like the Succession Crisis between 2a282 and 2a294, or  the Crown Wars, from 2a643 and 2a659. But has retained itself and it's missive for the entirety of eight centuries.

Utilizing the Dread Crow messaging system provided by the Talons, the Black Horse collected news, and at the time this was published, distributed a two sided paper to major cities across the empire. 

The 2a23 issue details the signing of the Refugee's Rest Treaty, merging Skyrim with the Morrowind Lands held by the Redoran House, along with several stories that illustrate the long recovery and aftermath of the Third Daedric Invasion.

Black Horse Newsletter is based out of Whiterun in Keizaal.

Grand work, and surprisingly a few days after I saw this someone put out a new skyrim mod using the idea. Have you any ideas in the pipeline re: how the Thalmor get banjaxed?
