Sentinel is a port city in Hammerfell on the Iliac Bay, last seen in past entries including The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall and The Elder Scrolls Online. A note in the teaser signed by a monk of Hammerfell's High Queen carries the date 4E 206, five years after the setting of Skyrim.
Sentinel has shown up before, but never as the title of a main entry. In The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall it was one of the major kingdoms of the Iliac Bay alongside Daggerfall and Wayrest, and lost the island of Betony to Daggerfall in a war before that game begins.
In The Elder Scrolls Online, players visit Sentinel in the Alik'r Desert and meet King Fahara'jad and his son Prince Azah, in the Second Era. The teaser's closing note is signed by Yazar, a monk of the Sacred Silkworm serving Iradne, High Queen of Hammerfell, and dated 4E 206.
