Stone of Atonement

What deeper grief can a Khajiit suffer than witnessing a true cat's fall to Namiira? Watching the shining faces of brothers and sisters suddenly struck black as midnight—creased with snarls of rage and sorrow. Our people curse the dro-m'Athra, but let us never forget that every dancing thrall of Namiira was once a pure child of Azurah, and an inheritor of the Ja-Kha'jay.

No Khajiit is beyond redemption. By pressing the dro-m'Athra's souls into the bones of our fallen kin, we give them an opportunity for atonement. For the peace found only in twilight. So, pay no heed to those who shrink from our calls to the Dark. No price is too great for a soul made clean.

Stone of Banishment

The path to atonement often gives way to encroaching shadows of rage and self-pity. It loops back upon itself relentlessly, driving the penitent to face the enormity of their sins again and again. In time, the tortured dro-m'Athra may accept the truth and seek redemption through service to our order, but many resist. For these pitiable creatures, banishment is our only recourse.

Through prayer, song, and slashing blades, we keep safe the roads between worlds. We find great honor in this work, but great danger also. Never forget that Namiira craves the hunter's heart above all others. An adept must find the seed of peace that hides within the bitter fruit of war.

Stone of Commitment

Of all Azurah's many commandments, one leaps above all others. All souls, great and small, true and bent, Moons-blessed and curse-ridden, must return to her embrace—beyond the Lunar Lattice that divides a life of flesh from a life of spirit. In this commandment, the Order of the Hidden Moon finds its vocation.

Beloved adepts, we must walk a shepherd's path. Through prayer and song, we must usher the people's souls to their appointed place at the left hand of our queen and mother. In saving others, so too do we save ourselves.
