It was signed as the result of a personal meeting between Tiber Septim and the [[Lore:Dunmer|Dunmer]] god [[Lore:Vivec_(god)|Vivec]], which took place after several Empire-won battles, one of which laid waste to {{Lore Link|Mournhold}}.{{ref|name=OM|{{Cite book|On Morrowind}}}}{{ref|name=BOB1|{{Cite book|Biography of Barenziah, v 1}}}} Though it was not known to the population at large, the {{Lore Link|Tribunal}} had grown weaker and more isolated ever since the awakening of [[Lore:Dagoth Ur|Dagoth Ur]] and the loss of access to the [[Lore:Heart of Lorkhan|Heart of Lorkhan]] circa {{Year|2E 882}}.{{ref|name=DUP|{{Cite book|Dagoth Ur's Plans}}}} Thus, Vivec was practically compelled to negotiate with Septim, whom he expressed respect for in his writings.{{ref|name=LOV19|{{Cite book|36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 19}}}}{{ref|name=LOV34|{{Cite book|36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 19}}}} Many Dunmer were shocked and angered by what they viewed as the Tribunal's betrayal.{{ref|name=Orvas|[[Morrowind:Orvas Dren|Orvas Dren's]] dialogue in [[Morrowind:Morrowind|Morrowind]].}}
The terms of the Armistice were intended to make Morrowind a part of the Empire, while also allowing it a large degree of autonomy.{{ref|name=Artisa}} To succeed in this, Tiber Septim knew that he would have to severely limit Morrowind's military power. Accordingly, he successfully demanded Morrowind's surrender of [[Lore:Numidium|Numidium]] to the Empire and its acceptance of a substantial Imperial presence in terms of Legion soldiers.{{ref|name=TAH}} In exchange, Morrowind was permitted to keep its autonomy, maintaining the power of the Tribunal Temple and the Great Houses,{{ref|name=OM}} while being supervised by Imperial representatives in the capital, [[Lore:Almalexia (city)|Almalexia City]], and in each of the six newly-created administrative districts.{{ref|name=ASHOM|{{Cite book|A Short History of Morrowind}}}} These representatives were carefully chosen to be acceptable to both the Emperor and the Dunmer people.{{fact}} Additionally, and perhaps most importantly in the minds of Dunmer elites, the practice of slavery in Morrowind was protected by the Empire.{{ref|name=BB|{{Cite book|Brown Book of 3E 426}}}} Dunmer religious practices were similarly protected.{{ref|name=OM}}
The Armistice was supported most enthusiastically by [[Lore:House Hlaalu|House Hlaalu]], with [[Lore:House Redoran|House Redoran]] grudgingly following Vivec's lead, while [[Lore:House Dres|House Dres]] did so only with the strong provisions protecting slavery.{{ref|name=OM}} [[Lore:House Telvanni|House Telvanni]] remained neutral and isolationist throughout the proceedings, until the support of Hlaalu and Redoran was officially established, when they joined in on the support of the treaty.{{ref|name=OM}} [[Lore:House Indoril|House Indoril]] bowed to the will of the Tribunal, but remained hostile to the Empire; in fact, many Indoril nobles chose ritual suicide rather than to rule an occupied nation.{{ref|name=OM}} At this time, House Hlaalu seized the opportunity to settle old scores with Houses Indoril and Redoran, using its new alliance with the Empire to reclaim lost lands and to place Hlaalu nobles in positions of power within the new Imperial administration. House Indoril remained powerful in the capital, [[Lore:Mournhold|Mournhold]], but quickly fell into disrepair elsewhere.{{ref|name=Morrowind}}
Following the Armistice, the island of [[Lore:Vvardenfell|Vvardenfell]] became a Temple preserve with some small settlements maintained by the Great Houses as well as scattered [[Morrowind:Ashlanders|Ashlander]] tribes. However, the island was not opened to large-scale settlement by civilians or exploitation by the East Empire Company until {{Year|3E 416}}.{{ref|name=ASHOM}}
