There was also a note addressed to "Brother" found under the floorboards of a house in the Nordic village of Jallenheim in 2E 358, depicting the war between the Brotherhood and the Morag Tong.Īnd, given the evidence found within Queen Arlimahera's journal, that places the formation of the Dark Brotherhood sometime between 2E 358 and 2E 360.ĭuring the Third Era, the Dark Brotherhood were at the height of their power. Either way, the formation of the Dark Brotherhood came down to the woman who became the first Night Mother, and her connection to Sithis, who demanded souls to satisfy the Void's eternal hunger. However, other theories suggest that the Dark Brotherhood was an offshoot of the Thieves' Guild, rather than the Morag Tong. Because of those heinous crimes, the local villagers killed her and burned her house down. Thirty years later, a man began hearing the voice of the Night Mother in his head - and became the first Listener. The Night Mother eventually had 5 children by Sithis, all of whom she killed so that she could send their souls to their father. The Night Mother's arrival gave the Morag Tong the leader they desperately needed she was supposedly the lover of Sithis, though some actually thought she was the Daedric Prince Mephala in the form of a mortal Dumner woman. However, the Morag Tong weren't taken terribly seriously, thought of only as obscure cultists with no true leader.
Back then, they weren't assassins rather, Mephala encouraged the Morag Tong to commit ritual murders. The Dark Brotherhood didn't start with that name: at first, they were a religious order called the Morag Tong, worshippers of the Daedric Prince Mephala. But the exact formation of the assassins' cabal is shrouded in mystery, with only a few details available. The first time the Dark Brotherhood was ever mentioned was in the journal of Blood Queen Arlimahera of Hegathe, written during the second era (2E 412, to be exact).
