It’s a big week for The Elder Scrolls Online , with an in-person community event featuring a special Necrom preview opportunity, as well as the Necrom prologue chapter released free for all ESO players.
You won’t have to own anything other than the base game to get yourself started in the Necrom prologue quest, “Eye of Fate”.

In what is sure to be an easy task (supposedly), you’ll have to undertake a short trial to prove your worth to the Daedric Prince.
As you might expect, things aren’t as simple as they might have seemed, as things turn quickly. “This simple trial quickly transforms into a spiraling conspiracy that will have you questioning who among Mora’s enigmatic cults you can possibly trust,” according to the announcement.
If you do take on the quest and complete it, you’ll earn yourself a reward, the Unstable Emerald Glyphic Memento. In the process, you’ll get a taste of what it will be like when the full Necrom chapter releases in June. Mysteries, dark secrets, conspiracies, cults, and dangerous magic are all just the beginning.
