Blankenmarch

Blankenmarch is a village northeast of Leyawiin.

The settlement consists of three houses (Floyd Nathan's House, Hanz gro-Hubrag's House, and Philip Franc's House) and a garden (including 1 arrowroot plant, 1 blackberry bush, 1 carrot plant, 8 corn stalks, 3 leek plants, 1 potato plant, 2 radish plants, 2 strawberry bushes, 1 tobacco plant, 2 tomato plants, and 2 wheat stalks).

The interiors of the houses are in disarray and feature the following items of note: four sacks of flour, two samples of garlic, and an unlocked chest containing three bottles of skooma in Floyd's house, three ginkgo leaves in Hanz's house, and five ironwood nuts and a shepherd's pie in Philip's house.

Notes

• The nearby Ayleid ruin Veyond was originally the location of the quest that later became Trolls of Forsaken Mine, as several markers for gates and switches in the ruin are prefixed with FDG06 in the game data, while a marker named FGD06DeadViranusMARKER is also present in the final zone of the dungeon. Additionally, Veyond is solely populated by the unique leveled Azhklan Trolls, similar to the Savage Trolls at Forsaken Mine. Blankenmarch was likely intended to be a starting point for the quest, where a local NPC would have informed you of the threat per a rumor still in the game data: "I think Oreyn is planning to send Viranus out on the Blankenmarch contract. I'm betting Vilena is not happy about it... if she knows." This rumor is conditioned to only play after the completion of Azani Blackheart and before the completion of Trolls of Forsaken Mine. However, in the final game, Blankenmarch is the only village that isn't connected to any quest.
• The exterior area features the highest concentration of plants providing tiger lily nectar in Cyrodiil, with 19 total outside the houses.
• An Imperial Legion Forester patrols the wilderness around the village.
• Blankenmarch also appears in ESO as an unmarked location.
