BALMORA, FROM THE ELDER SCROLLS III: MORROWIND

You have to start somewhere. And in Morrowind, that place is always the port of Seyda Neen. The ship that carries you from prison docks there, and you're sent into the customs house for some character creation and light pilfering. From there, however, you're on your own, a package-delivery quest pointing you to the town of Balmora and a man called Caius.
