Garlas Malatar, an Ayleid ruin in Cyrodiil

Main article: Elven Ruins

Ayleid ruins are all that remain of the city-states and settlements of the Ayleids. They are a common sight in Cyrodiil, the Ayleid Empire's seat of power.[1][2] Due to migration events such as the Scouring of Wendelbek and the Ayleid Diaspora,[3] ruins can also be found outside of Cyrodiil, in Valenwood[2] and High Rock,[2] with some also present in Hammerfell,[2] Elsweyr,[2] and Black Marsh.[2] Most of these ruins still have functioning Welkynd and Varla stones.

Many Ayleid settlements continue to be inhabited even after the disappearance of the Ayleids. They often serve as lairs for outcasts such as bandits and necromancers, while some, such as the Imperial City and Stormhold, have been renovated and function as modern settlements.
