Kvatch is a fortified city that sits high on a mountaintop, and provides the first experience of the "Oblivion Crisis" in the game: The very first gate to the hellish world of Oblivion is encountered here, and from survivor accounts, we understand that the otherworldly invaders use these gates to bring troops in. Kvatch is the first casualty in the invasion, the city is utterly destroyed, and the surrounding land turned into burnt and ashen waste.
The screenshots below are grouped into scenes from the city, and the Oblivion world beyond the burning gate that sits right outside the city main gate until it is closed by the player/hero.
We also present a brief movie clip of an Oblivion gate closing: By removing the Sigil Stone in the "Sigillum Sanguis" tower that is common to all Oblivion mini-worlds, the world collapses and the gate closes.
Detailed information on Kvatch can be found at the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages.
