The Night Mother : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

The Morag Tong assassin who killed Reman III returned to the embrace of the Night Mother, and then hopped on a boat and swannied off to Vounoura.

She had a Morag Tong writ on her.

So, either she was actually DB in disguise, or the criminalization of the Morag Tong because of Reman's assassination exacerbated the split between the DB and Morag Tong. Causing the Night Mother to become an icon for the DB.

No doubt that Mephala has something more to do in all this murderous mayhem than we know.

Thats historic fiction not history.

Thats historic fiction not history.

THAT'S not proven.

Don't know if the TIL timeline says it or Last Year, but its somewhere.

I was under the impression from an in-game book that the Night Mother was once a mortal female human assassin whose calling card was placing a black and white gem over the eyes of her victims?

It's possible that this Night Mother was simply an avatar or mortal representative of the actual immortal Night Mother spirit, though. (Kind of like how many speculate the "Mannimarco" we kill in the game is an avatar.)
