The Tower was used as a fortress, prison, and palace by the {{Lore Link|Direnni Hegemony}}, but its true purpose has remained a mystery. The latest magical divination of its age places its construction around {{Year|ME 2500}}, making it the oldest known structure in {{Lore Link|Tamriel}}. The tower has been modified several times over the years, but the cylindrical core of metal has not been touched and is rumored to extend as far into the ground as it does protrude above it, but its depths have never been thoroughly explored.<noinclude> According to historical lore of the Dawn and Merethic Eras, the Direnni Tower was created by the [[LoreCategory:Aedra|Aedra]] for a place of discussing the creation of [[Lore:Mundus|Mundus-Places]].{{Ref|name=PGE3|{{Cite book|PGE|3|All the Eras of Man}}}} The tower was then used by the Gods for discussing the punishment of [[LoreCategory:Lorkhan|Lorkhan]] for his trickery of conceptualizing Mundus; the decision being to cast Lorkhan's heart from the tower and into the mortal world below.{{Ref|name=BTAOM|{{Cite book|Before the Ages of Man}}}} When [[Lore:Magnus (god)|Magnus]] departed from the near-formed Mundus, the Gods that followed him abandoned the tower, leaving behind the secrets associated with it.{{Ref|name=BTAOM}}{{NewLeft}}==See Also==*For game-specific information, see the Daggerfall article on the [[Daggerfall:Direnni Tower|Direnni TowerAll Terms]]. ==References==<references/></noinclude>
