The Order of The White Flame is said to have been founded during the times of the Aldmer. Before the recordings of events. That is if you believe in these Myths and Legends spoken from one Generation to the next.

Long ago when the Aldmer had just arrived at the Summerset Isles a young Nightblade went on a scouting party across the land. Him and his Companions wandered near a dark cave. They could hear whispers coming from this place. To figure out what this whisper was they were lured in. One by one they fell until the Nightblade was the only one left. The cave was so Dark you could feel it; no spells would light the place and the Spirits that dwell in there are powerful. With no where to go but forward he found light in this dark place. In this final passage he saw a Flame. It was so White it drew light around it causing the rest of the cave to be as dark as it was. He did not understand this Flame or it's power. He then moved slowly to touch it. As he was close a voice came from the Flame and the Flame covered him ......

........ No one knows what really happened to him ...... some say his body and soul was devoured ..... others say it is just a kid's tale to keep them from venturing into caves ...... and only a select few will ever know the truth of the ending of this story ..... and it all begins with the .... Order of The White Flame.

From time to time one will be traveling the wilderness in search of this "Mythical Order" and one who is chosen to join, and can pass the many trials will be Baptized in the Flame as the ritual entrance to the Order.
