Chapter 820 1.819 The law of Tamriel is that all good things have an end
The Khajiit's unique eating habits add to their unpredictability.In Elsweer, Moon Sugar is the uncrowned king.Locals call moon sugar "moonshine crystals," but there's more to Khajiit than that.Sugarcane is planted in a large area in the Elsville Rainforest, and the local people will take it to trade with other provinces after harvesting. It is a large export of Elsville.Although the demand for moon sugar in other provinces is not small, the biggest consumers are still local residents.Despite its highly addictive nature, Moon Sugar remains an integral part of Khajiit life.Khajiit believed that by eating moon candy, he also ate a small part of the immortal souls of the two moon gods. The moment the moon candy touched their lips, the only word to describe the feeling was ecstasy...
Walking on the streets of major cities in Elsville, you will find that the streets are full of big cats shivering with "sugar addiction".This irresistible love for moon sugar gave Khajiit a "sugar tooth": candies, cakes, puddings and sugar meats became the staple food of their daily life, and each food was full of sugary taste.Newcomers to Elsevier are warned to beware of the local food.Moon Sugar may have had a profound effect on the Khajiit, but its value in the eyes of other races is sometimes even greater.
Elsevier has a thriving black market.There is a saying that goes well, "If you can buy it, you can find it in Elsville." Skooma is a kind of addictive potion that can bring people pleasure. It has been produced by Khajiit for centuries. It was refined and improved, and was supplied to all parts of Tamriel.Skooma is extremely dependent and harmful, so the empire issued a ban, and the circulation of skooma was banned in many parts of the mainland.We know, though, that even under the watchful eye of the Empire, the Khajiit won't abide by these laws for long, given their unruly, reckless nature.
When ancient humans and elves set foot on the shores of Tamriel, they soon discovered that Tamriel was already home to many strange orc races.Like the Argonians, the Khajiit are generally considered to be native to Tamriel, one of those races that survived the expansion of the Elves and Men.While other native races were crushed by the wheels of history, the Khajiit's changeable nature helped them survive.
The Altmer explorer Topal the Pilot, who drew the map of Tamriel in the mysterious era, once led his crew to sail along the Niben River, which was as clear as blue crystal. Unfortunately, these ancient elven explorers encountered some of Tamriel's most fearsome land predators, the early Khajiit.This cat-man preyed on almost all animals, and brought a lot of trouble to the elves who settled nearby in the early days.For example, ancient Bosmer, out of fear of "big jungle cat people", knew to avoid parts of Valen Forest.
From the encounters of these ancient elves, it can be easily inferred that although Khajiit mostly lived in the desert, they were once the mainstream civilization in southern Tamriel in ancient times.
The climate of Elsville is extremely hot, and the desert hot wind often destroys the crops. It is such a desolate and harsh place, it is hard to imagine that such a great race has been bred.However, this harsh life also makes them strong enough to withstand the test of time.
By the time the first historians began to record history on paper, the kingdoms of Khajiit had become a force to be reckoned with on Tamriel.When Bosmer entered the First Age, there were 16 independent kingdoms around Elswyr.Unlike normal human or elven kingdoms, these Khajiit kingdoms do not compete with each other for territory and influence.On the contrary, the ancient Khajiit were able to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of each other. The 16 kingdoms cooperated with each other, lived in harmony, and had a clear division of labor, all ruled by the celestial bodies in the night sky.
Centuries have passed, and these kingdoms have lived peacefully here, jointly resisting disasters brought by external forces.It is this rare unity that protects the local residents. Even the Alesian Empire chose not to expand to where Elsweer is today because of fear of retaliation, and the wood elves in Valen Forest also know where they have the guts to expand eastward. .The Empire never wants to go to war with a well-ordered nation like the Khajiit.
However, the law of Tamriel is that all good things come to an end.At the end of the First Era, a catastrophic plague, the Great Plague of Terrasian, broke out, completely breaking the balance within Khajiit.
The Terrasian Plague didn't wipe out all the kingdoms, and the surviving Khajiit formed two kingdoms, each representing one of their two sacred moons, two very different nations.One is a desert kingdom that respects tribal warrior culture, and the other is a jungle kingdom that respects money.With no ruling power to control them, the two kingdoms began to vie for dominion, but it was always hard to tell.
It wasn't until 2E 309 that the two nations were finally united through a political marriage.To commemorate this historic occasion, the two countries named the land Elsweer after a Khajiit proverb "The perfect society is always elsewhere (Elsewhere)".As the nobles of Khajiit try to restore the vitality of the land that has been decimated by years of infighting, outside threats have arrived, and Elsweer is facing the danger of being destroyed.
In the Second Era, the Khajiit faced death threats from the Lord of the Undead as Molag Bal attempted to enslave Tamriel following a terrible plague known as the Nahatten Influenza.In their darkest hour, the Khajiit were unexpectedly saved by an ally.The Queen of the High Elf helped Elsweer end the chaos after the plague and restore social order.After saving the Khajiit homeworld—or, one might say, from extinction—the Khajiit of Elsweyr declared their allegiance to the High Elves of Summerset and joined the Wood Elves of Valen Forest in The elves are allied.Based on the friendship between them during this period, the first ancestor Shenzhou was born.
Within Ancestral China, Khajiit often existed as the most ferocious fighters on the front line.Due to their proficiency with swords and sharp claws, combined with the racial diversity of the Khajiit, this race has gained a reputation as warriors beyond the reach of human beings.In this way, it is not difficult to understand why the ancestors of Shenzhou welcomed Khajiit very much.
In the centuries since Molag Bal's invasion, Elsweer's fortunes have been in turmoil.Like its people, Elsweyr will not be content to be led by the banner of one faction for long.For a long time, the only real authority recognized by the Khajiit was the Twin Moons and the Divine Dance of the Twin Moons, and the Mane.Mane is the independent spiritual leader and ruler of Elsweyr.Khajiit has no standing army, and Mane does not have the power to command the army. His power comes from the heart and will of Khajiit, and often plays an important role in the field of religion and tradition.Every few centuries, one and only a mane is born and brings peace to Elsweyr, but such good days always seem to be short-lived.
After being incorporated into the Septim Empire of Man, Khajiit found some security for a while, but then a rebellion broke out.Like the phases of the moon, it can be said that Khajiit is born with a desire for "change", but what if "change" does not mean good results?
In 4E98, the Night of the Void occurred.The two moons disappeared, and the entire Kajit of Eswell fell into unprecedented panic and turmoil.Two years later, Mather and Sai Kunda reappeared, and Thalmer of Shenzhou, the third ancestor, claimed that they used a powerful "dawn magic" to restore Double Moon.Thalmor or not, many Khajiit see Thalmor as their savior.In just 15 years, the empire's influence in Elsweer declined so rapidly that it could do nothing about the coup d'état in 4E 115.After the coup, the Elsweil Federation was forced to disband. With the support of Sommer, the two kingdoms named after the ancient Anaquinas and Peletine joined the Elf Alliance.Once again the Empire failed to stop Thalmor's approach.When Titus Meade II came to the throne in 4E 168, he was left with an impoverished empire.The glorious days of the Septim dynasty seemed to be an ancient memory.
Now the Khajiit are once again happily serving the reborn ancestors of Shenzhou, and contributing to the high elves' implementation of the elves' interests on the mainland.With the addition of Khajiit, Shenzhou, the ancestor of the high elves in Summerset, naturally added another point to the threat to humans and all of Tamriel.
