The Abbey of the Eight is one of many centres of worship in Cyrodill for the Eight Divines. The Abbess who leads this settlement of cloistered Initiates welcomes any who tire of Banners War to join their order, but their numbers seem few. In times of strife, and turmoil, the message that all blessings spring from the Divines can be badly received, to the point where blame and angry outpourings against those still pious in their beliefs are becoming ever more common. This explains the necessary presence of the Knights of the Eight. The relationship between the initiates and the Knights however seems strained. The Knights own piety is tested somewhat by the sanctimonious complaints of the initiates that none, including the Knights, offer sufficient thanks to the Eight to receive their blessings. In truth there is nothing that causes men and mer to revisit their convictions more then war.
