Avoni gave a sigh as she approached the door of her next dungeon: a tomb with the family name "Senim" engraved in Daedric characters on its entrance. Ancestral tombs were an integral part of Dunmer culture, and were located all over the island continent. Her own namesake, Indalen, even had one, nestled between the steep hills that surrounded the Imperial town Caldera - although, with her current lifestyle, the young Dunmer silently worried if she would actually be interred there, instead of in a ditch by some bandit camp or in the intestines of some hungry monster...
