I don't expect it to be spot on as I couldn't remember the source materials to double check what I remembered but rest assured I'm going to turn the wiki upside down to find all of them.

[The book(?) that talks about the altmer wizards(?) also talks about a ring that was made to prolong life.Does that ring(no pun intended) any bells?]

[If I remember correctly the book that talks about the bosmer thinning their blood is from either Morrowind or Oblivion.]

The Ring of Phynaster in Tamrielic Lore.

The Monomyth said Bosmer took "Mannish" wives.

Yes!Thank you ME!After I wrote my post I remembered that the bit about the Bosmer would most likely be in The Monomyth.Still,Phynaster has been present in almost every conversation we had about Altmer age so I feel a little ashamed :P I think this is a clear indicator that I should really start reading the books again because I'm obviously getting rusty.IIRC there should be at least a couple more books that talk about this subject so this would be the prime opportunity to brush on some lore.
