The student had brought back King Olaf's Verse and presented it to Jarl Elisif. The student found themselves at Dead Man's Respite, the burial place of High King Olaf One-Eye. To persuade her to change her mind, Viarmo had sent a student of the college to find a lost verse of the Poetic Edda, King Olaf's Verse, written by the First Era skald, Svaknir. At this time, Jarl Elisif the Fair had canceled the annual Burning of King Olaf, as she considered it poor taste after the assassination of her husband, High King Torygg.

Many years later, during the Skyrim Civil War in 4E 201, the Bards College was administrated by Headmaster Viarmo, who choose to keep the politics of the civil war away from his institute. The now famous, Flames of Callisos was named after the alumni. More and more famous bards and scholars would come from the Bards College, such as Callisos and Morachellis. This tradition would continue for many centuries, to celebrate Olaf's victory over Numinex and his ascension to the throne. The College's students flood the markets to celebrate for a week and end it with the Burning of King Olaf, where everyone gathers at the college courtyard to burn an effigy that depicts King Olaf One-Eye. At one point, Solitude was sacked by Olaf One-Eye in the late years of the War of Succession, and sometime later, Solitude and the Bards College would make a yearly tradition based on Olaf's exploits. The Bards College was founded when Skyrim was a part of the First Empire, roughly during the twilight years of Ysgramor's dynasty, and the years following. The Ateia family is a recurring contributor to the Bards College, since their earliest members, Parteron Ateia, who donated his last flute to the Bards College, all the way to Pantea Ateia, who was a dean at the college during the Skyrim Civil War. The Bards College, many poets, and historians write poems and stories in the Poetic Edda, a collection of endless poems that depict Skyrim's extended history. The Bards College has two known departments, in History and Lute (Music).
