Olenveld

All right, I have never heard of this:
Sounds like quite the eerie location.
We could add this sometime in the future. A small frozen island, 4-6 cells tops. The abandoned Mage's Guild being one of the only interiors on the island, otherwise dotted with ruined buildings and graveyards. No inhabitants but ghosts. The player could help a group of Necromancers do research on how to find the island.
Not anything we need to be concerned about now, but posted for posterity.
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Olenveld" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;Olenveld is an island off the coast of Skyrim, a day's sail in favorable conditions from Winterhold.
The island originally hosted a significant city, although it was abandoned some time in the Second Era.[1] Tiber Septim used Olenveld as his own personal graveyard, lining its abandoned streets with gravestones. Eventually the island city was forgotten, and Olenveld disappeared from the maps.[2]
After Hannibal Traven became the Arch-Mage of the Mages Guild circa 3E 431,[3] he introduced a ban on necromancy in the guild. Forced to go into hiding, a group of necromancers set out to find Olenveld and its plentiful supply of bodies. After spending a week searching for the island, they set up shop in the old Mages Guild building and became somewhat well-known for their ability to preserve sickly children by turning them undead.[2]
