There are whispers among the Soul Shriven that the Planar Vortex and the Endless Stair were built for Molag Bal by the Mad Architect himself.

Inside the Planar Vortex

The Planar Vortex is a realm linked to Coldharbour via the Endless Stair.

According to the Groundskeeper, Molag Bal is using this interstices of space and time as the primary staging ground to meld Nirn with his realm. There are a number of Imperial and Daedric-style buildings, as well as a constant mix of environment from both Tamriel and Oblivion.

When you enter the vortex, Meridia reveals herself and destroys the first of three Dark Anchors. A Vampire Illusionist, two Winged Twilights and two bloodfiends are summoned as you approach the second Dark Anchor. At the anchor, two bloodfiends, to Guardians of Coldharbour and a Winged Twilight will appear. Meridia destroys the second anchor, and Molag Bal appears after you defeat this group of enemies. Meridia erects a ward, and Molag Bal throws fire at her.

Two Guardians of Coldharbour will arrive at the docks leading to the next anchor. There is a backpack at the base of the stairs on the other side of the bridge. Two Winged Twilights, a bloodfiend and a Guardian of Coldharbour will appear as you approach the anchor. Two Winged Twilights, one Guardian of Coldharbour, and two bloodfiends appear to defend the third Dark Anchor. Gabrielle and Darien will stay behind to ensure the anchor is destroyed while you place the Light of Meridia.

Head east, up a hill containing a graveyard. Vanus and King Dynar will be ejected from the area, and Molag Bal's council appears. Clorsatari, Verkynvayl and Kehothar will face you in an attempt to halt your mission and please their master. Dremora will pour out of four portals Molag Bal opens up after you defeat his council.
