Dark Elvish Script around Boethiah[UOL 1]

This script[nb 1] has been used by the Dark Elves in the closing days of the Second Era in their language—specifically, by retainers of House Dres adjacent to their city of Tear.[1][nb 2] The Dark Elven culture before and after this time widely utilized the alternative Daeric Alphabet by and large for their writing, signage, and symbology.[2][3][4][5] The script has also been used when rendering depictions of Boethiah.[UOL 1] Ultimately, the prominence of this script in relation to the Daedric Script is unknown.

The script is presented in a mirrored fashion, with sentences sometimes facing right instead of left, or left instead of right, depending.[1]
