Overview
An infinite sea of black ooze and thrashing tentacles, the Oblivion plane known as Apocrypha is incomprehensible to mortals who have been lured into its unseen and unspeakable depths. Perched atop this turbulent mire, glistening against the writhing brightness of a green sky, is Hermaeus Mora’s infinite library of forbidden knowledge, where every tome reveals secrets damning and inhumane, catalogued in chaos.
Two types of Daedra—known as Keepers—dwell in this realm, maintaining the vast library and serving Mora’s mysterious will. There are Seekers, who use invisibility and mirror images as distractions while they sap your strength, and there are Lurkers, towering monstrosities with powerful physical tendrils and poisonous bile. There are other entities as well: strange floating lights, writhing tentacles, and glimpses of the Daedric Prince himself.
You can reach the seven realms within Apocrypha by finding and reading a specific Black Book. You find two during your Main Quest, while the rest are scattered around Solstheim. While you are on Solstheim, you can read these ancient tomes whenever you desire. Read the book again to banish these otherworldly atrocities from your mind and return to Tamriel.
