Main Questline: The Dragon's Awakening

The main questline of The Elder Scrolls VI: Dominion centers on the return of dragons and the player's role in combating them. This narrative is deeply intertwined with the overarching "Season of the Dragon" storyline, which began with the Wrathstone DLC. Players will discover the origins of this new draconic threat and work to unite forces against it.

The return of dragons to Tamriel is a cataclysmic event, echoing ancient prophecies. Historically, dragons ruled Tamriel until three human warriors used an Elder Scroll to send Alduin, the dragon ruler, forward in time. The survival of Paarthurnax, the last dragon, was a secret held by the Greybeards, monks who practice the Way of the Voice atop the Throat of the World. The player, as the Dragonborn, possesses the unique ability to learn powerful draconic shouts by absorbing the souls of slain dragons, fulfilling the ancient prophecy of a "Last Dragonborn" destined to defeat Alduin.

Key events and strategies within this questline include:

Discovering the Wrathstone Tablets: With the aid of Tharayya, players will locate the two Wrathstone tablets in various dungeons. These tablets are crucial to understanding the dragon's return.
The Release of Dragons: Abnur Tharn's use of the Wrathstone tablets opens the Halls of Colossus, unleashing dragons upon Elsweyr. This event marks a significant turning point in the main quest.
Uniting Against the Threat: The main quest line involves gathering armies and allies from across Hammerfell, Valenwood, and the Summerset Isles to combat the Aldmeri Dominion and the newly unleashed dragons.
The Necromancer Class: The introduction of the Necromancer Class offers a new way to engage with the challenges presented by the dragons and the Dominion.
Sunspire Trial: Players can participate in Sunspire, a 12-player Trial, likely a major encounter against a powerful draconic or Dominion force.
#SlayDragonsSaveCats: Players can participate in the #SlayDragonsSaveCats event. For every five dragons slain until December 9, 2019, ZeniMax Online Studios will donate $1 to save cats in real life, up to a maximum of $200,000.
