My name, Mo'jahi Ice-Eye proficient Blue Skooma Dealer and thief. Here is my story:
This one was born in the middle of the Elweyr desert, in an area called White Sands. Most of you will not have heard of this place. It is not spoken of often. White Sands is an area of the desert where the sun shines so strong on the sand, that is has been bleached white. There are two villages in this area, so small you can barely call them villages at all. Dantesh and Khaj'var (translates roughly to Life in Desert). Mo'jahi Ice-Eye comes from Khaj'var. As the sun bleaches the desert white, so does it affect the fur of the Khajiit who live here.
My father was Ja'budiit, a craftsmen working as tailor, blacksmith, and woodworker for both of the villages in White Sands. My mother was named S'rawla, and she was the leader of Khaj'var, organizing our village so we could always survive in this desert. As such, my parents were always busy working and did not have too much time for their only cub.
My time in the village was split between exploring the dunes, and helping with preparing the food. The Khajiit of White Sands had learnt how to stop meat and other food from spoiling using one of the easiest resources we had to come by (by easy, this one does not me easy, but just easier than most other things to come by, life was very hard in White Sands). You might have
already guessed that this ingredient was Moon Sugar. At the age of 7, Mo'jahi Ice-Eye was already familiar with some of the alchemical uses of Moon Sugar and how to handle it when making things with it.
The most important person in my early life was Mo'hoqqi, or as I called him Dro'Dro. He was my great grandfather and the second oldest Khajiit I have ever met. Now to continue with Mo'jahi Ice-Eye's story, this one must first tell the story of Mo'hoqqi.
Mo'hoqqi was also born in Khaj'var in White Sands. At the age of 19, Mo'hoqqi left White Sands to explore and travel the world. Working in merchant caravans as both a merchant and thief, he soon proved to have exceptional talent in both of those skills, and he was a prodigy in using money. So one day his caravan found its way into the Imperial City, the heart of Tamriel. At the
time as the Imperial City was during the Interregnum as it is today, the politics and the city in general was a bit chaotic. One prominent Imperial noble, Aleas Terchias, hated the Khajiit and wanted to get them out of Cyrodiil. While this did not succeed, Aleas Terchias did succeed in getting Khajiit banned from doing business in the Imperial City.
Mo'hoqqi arrived at the city a few days after the law was passed. While he was very confused, he decided to stay a couple days to accomplish his other profession. The next day, a small riot broke out and resulted in the death of about half a thousand Khajiit at the hands of guardsmen and Imperial Soldiers. Mo'hoqqi was very displeased. He immediately started plotting and plotting, making
a grand plan for revenge. His plan was to completely destroy the entire Cyrodiilic economy, in revenge for the deaths of the Khajiit, a few of who were his companions. Now this might seem impossible for one man, but Mo'hoqqi was a genius in the ways of money and had already stocked up a considerable fortune, trading and thieving.
The first part of his plan was this: Mo'hoqqi and a couple other compatriots highly capable in stealth, stealing, and fighting, were to sneak into the Imperial Treasury and take everything. So they did. It was very uneventful, they went in and went out with the money. Using this money and all of his skill, the downfall of the economy was prepared and put into works and it succeeded, in some ways.
Now you must all be wondering why you have nothing of this event. Not even a whisper of Mo'hoqqi has reached your ears and yet he supposedly staged the downfall of the largest and strongest economy in Tamriel. Well then let this one continue. There are those in power who do not want such frailties in their power to be ever found out about. After the economy plunged, there was a slight purge. Several noble families including the family of Aleas Terchias were attacked by the masses of peasants. The ones in power being the way they are took this opportunity for their own. The fall of the economy was blamed on the noble families that were attacked, and they all died, either hanged by the crown or slaughtered by the peasants. Mo'hoqqi had the pleasant opportunity to watch the downfall of Terchias personally but then he had to run. Those of the inner circle of power around the throne immediately started investigating the downfall of the economy and trying to track those who did it. Largely unsuccessful in that ploy, the inner circle turned to the extinguishing of all evidence that this event ever happened with the use of any means possible including dark magic. Within 5 years, almost all the populous had already forgotten what had happened and within 50, the story was completely forgotten.
Mo'hoqqi came to live in the one place he knew he would never be found, his old home, White Sands. So the story is still told to this date, by Mo'hoqqi himself to the youngsters of White Sands.
End of Part 1
(OOC: I split the story into two parts as I wanted to get something out asap and the other part of the story is not yet written, so here is the first part. I tried to use as much of the Elder Scrolls lore I could but some of it is made up and does not neccessarily correspond with the world. For example S'rawla and Ja'budiit are names from Ta'agra whereas Mo'hoqqi and Mo'jahi do not come from known Ta'agra. For those of you wondering how I came up with Mo'jahi Ice-Eye, he was my first character I ever created in a TES game (my first I played was Skyrim). -Ice-Eye)
