Ilunibi CavernsIlunibi CavernsAn old sea cave up on the north end of the → Gnaar Mok island, right on → Khartag Point.Sometimes smugglers and outlaws use it for a hide−out, but it's wet and nasty, and not realcomfortable.Ilunibi ShrineIlunibi shrine is just a small, quiet retreat for → Sixth House servants, a place to contemplate andgrow strong and wise in Lord → Dagoth's ways. Here we share the sacraments of flesh and blood,and dream the dreams of our Lord. This and other lesser shrines are hidden from prying eyesthroughout the land. But the greatest shrines of Sixth House servants lie beneath → Red Mountain,in the → citadels of our Lord and his close kin.ImperialThe Imperials are the educated and well−spoken natives of the civilized, cosmopolitan province of→ Cyrodiil. Imperials are known for their enlightened rule of → law and government, and thediscipline and training of their citizen armies. Though physically less imposing than the other →races, they are shrewd diplomats and → traders.

The cult worships the → Nine Divines: theAedra → Akatosh, → Dibella, → Arkay, → Zenithar, → Mara, → Stendarr, → Kynareth, and →Julianos, and → Tiber Septim, founder and patron of the → Empire. In → Morrowind, it's partlymaintaining the faith for → outlanders, and partly a missionary cult, bringing enlightment to theheathen → Dunmer. Though some Dunmer are Imperial cult initiates, most of these are alsonominal members of the → Tribunal Temple.
