[[Lore:Ash Mountain|Ash Mountain]] is a volcano in southeastern [[Lore:Stonefalls|Stonefalls]], in the [[Lore:Daen Seeth|Daen Seeth]] region, west of the town of [[Lore:Senie|Senie]] and east of [[Lore:Ebonheart|Ebonheart]]. The mountain is surrounded by the [[Lore:Daedric|Daedric]] ruins of the Great Temple of [[Lore:Boethiah|Boethiah]], constructed by the [[Lore:Chimer|Chimer]] prior to the ascension of the [[Lore:Tribunal|Tribunal]].{{ref|name=ESOCToB|The description of [[Online:Contraband C#Chimer Talisman of Boethiah|Chimer Talisman of Boethiah]] in [[Online:Online|ESO]]}} It also houses a small ruined shrine to [[Lore:Molag Bal|Molag Bal]].

The volcano served as a prison for [[Lore:Balreth|Balreth]], one of the [[Lore:Brothers of Strife (creature)|Brothers of Strife]]. In {{Year|2E 582}}, {{Lore Link|Tanval Indoril}}, the grandmaster of [[Lore:House Indoril|House Indoril]], summoned Balreth and ordered him to destroy the [[Lore:Daggerfall Covenant|Daggerfall Covenant]] army attacking the city of [[Lore:Davon's Watch|Davon's Watch]].  Balreth routed the invading army before they entered the city, but he was deemed too dangerous to remain unbound. With the help of the [[Lore:The Vestige|Vestige]] and the spirit of [[Lore:Mavos Siloreth|Mavos Siloreth]], a Chimer who had originally bound Balreth in the [[Lore:First Era|First Era]], Balreth was defeated beneath the Ash Mountain and his spirit was bound again.{{ref|name=ESO}}<noinclude>
