The Arboretum

The Arboretum is the southeastern district of the Imperial City. Daedra are burning books in the center of the district. Lady Malygda and Ysenda Resplendent are the district's Patrolling Horrors.

An armory where a unique set can be crafted is located along the southeastern wall. The district's Sewer Entrance is located along the northeastern wall. The Ruined Archives are right next door to the sewer grate, located just south of it. The Aldmeri Dominion Base is located south of the Ruined Archives, on a ledge above it. The Ebonheart Pact Base is located up on a ledge north of the sewer grate, and a side door leading north into the Arena District lies just north of the base.

Rally Points

Each Alliance has a rally point along the outer wall of the Arboretum which can be accessed from their Alliance Base in the Imperial Sewers. The rally points are protected areas that members of enemy alliances cannot access, but enemy players can still attack players at the rally point from below with ranged weapons and spells. There is a Sanctuary area in the immediate vicinity of the rally point trap-door which nullifies all damage while a player is standing in it.
