The barbaric Reachman practise an ancient form of nature magic that even the long-lived Mer refer to as ‘the old magics’. Fuelled not by magicka, but by their bloodlust and savagery, these dark magics are as much part of Tamriel’s nature as is all of her beauty and majesty.

The powerful frost magic employed by the leader of the Winterborn to freeze these poor merchants in the moutain pass, so that neither sun nor rain can thaw, is why Urfon Ice-Heart is whispered about by both ally and enemy alike with as much fear and reverence as any man of the Reach; save perhaps The Undying Gravesinger of the Bloodthorns.
