1.863 Psijic Order
The goddess of knowledge, Hermoeus Mora, who had successively obtained two treasures of knowledge, the "Twilight Library" and the "Seeker's Library", immediately recounted the history of the Psijic Order.
As we all know, the Psijic Order is the oldest monastic organization in Tamriel, dedicated to the study and practice of mystical magic. They call this the "Old Way" or "The Way of the Elders."
They live on the island of Artim in the Summerset Islands. Members are selected through "a complex, ritualized method that is incomprehensible to ordinary people." Although the Psijics are reclusive, they can be identified through the unique clothing of their members.
Recognition gave them the nickname "Gray Cloaks" (later light yellow). The Psijics are governed by an organization called the Council of Artim. The Council is led by a single Psijic, known as
Become a Master of Ritual or a Master of Knowledge. As a member of the Psijic Order, it is important to remain true to the ancient ways. Members believe that the gods are always watching over our world, and that a devout Ashcloak will be present in the Hearth Moon.
The ritual of Moawita is performed on the 2nd, and the Vigyld is performed on the 1st of the sub-bud month to empower the beneficial gods and weaken the unclean gods. These gods are considered by the cult to be the ancestors of life,
Even the Daedra and Idra were considered merely special deities who gained great power in their afterlife.
The Psijics usually serve as advisors to Tamriel's rulers without directly participating in political affairs. This is considered a sacred duty and is called "Seliffrnsae", which means
"Brave and loyal advice." The kings of Summerset, especially those near Moridunon on Artim, often asked the Psijics for their opinion, but the Order was skeptical of other rulers, especially those of Moridunon.
The influence of the Emperor of Tamriel waxed and waned. The Psijics were reluctant to swear allegiance to a master except after careful consideration, because their duty to the ancient ways and their duty to their master might conflict. Even
It has been suggested that if conflict breaks out, the Psijic should commit suicide to avoid humiliating the Order. The Order generally views those to whom they advise as a "minority", but most rulers will band together to boycott the tournament with tyranny and stupidity
Ik's advice. Giving wisdom to leaders in the form of "the few" is the order's most widely known method of achieving their stated purpose: to help the world through times of change. They believe that there is no force more divine than change, although it
It should be accepted, but it should also be carefully directed towards "Oegnithr", or "bad change".
The Altmers established the cult when they first colonized Summerset Island. During this time, a change in the beliefs of Altmer society occurred: instead of pure, ordinary ancestor worship, the Summerset Island Arrogance
The Altmer began to worship only the ancestors claimed by the elites of Altmer society (the ancestor gods of the high elves), so the traditional Altmer Temple of Idra appeared. A group of dissenting Altmer elders
The followers rejected this change and left Summerset and settled on the nearby island of Artim. The order was first mentioned in the works of the Breton sage Voer in 1E 20, who traveled to
Meeting with the Psijic Ritual Master Lachesis on the Isle of Artim. During this time, the Psijics were portrayed as advisors to the royal family and the "Way of the Elders," a philosophical meditation and occult magic.
Research mentors. They also preserve the DreamingCave (the 'natural' liminal bridge connecting the plane of Annihilation), a method of entry to the Annihilation entrance.
Sotha Sil is believed to have been a friend of the Psijics, possibly a Psijic member himself, and once used this (Dream Cave) entrance to converse with the Daedra. A few years later, the now-famous Val
Nus Galilan came to Artium with an Altmer prophet. Here, Vanus met Manimak, a student at the time. They became good friends and became a master of occult magic.
But many years later, Galilean discovered that Manimarc was using his mystical magic to manipulate souls and the dead. Disgusted by this act that was considered blasphemous, Vanus and his old friend
Confronted at Sepolata. Galilean begged Manimak to repent, but his pleas fell on deaf ears. Manimak and the Psijics who agreed with his actions left Yatim and never returned.
Galilean established the Mages' Guild, an organization that further spread knowledge and practiced magic in the Psijic. This was the first recorded split in the Psijic order.
The Psijics, and the entire island of Artim, disappeared from Tamriel at the beginning of the Second Age, around the time the Mages' Guild was founded. The Psijics and their island reappeared 500 years later. No one
What exactly happened to the disappearance or the Council was explained. The Psijics were governed by the Master of the Knowledge, Thelarus, for at least 290 years until 3E 400, but it is unclear whether he served as governor since Artim's return.
That position. The Order's influence waxed and waned over the next few centuries. According to legend, in 3E 110, a unified alliance formed by the kings of Summerset and Antaiox Septim defeated the island nation of Pandonia.
The anchor of King Hum was a magical storm created by the Psijic Order. This was unusual because the Psijics rarely directly participated in wars or political conflicts.
, and some people have suggested that Potema, the Wolf-Hearted Queen who launched the Red Diamond War, manipulates the Order to achieve the purpose of seizing the Ruby Throne.
Uriel V was greatly influenced by the Psijic Order in his early years, which was the most glorious period of his reign, before his disastrous attack on Akavir. However, the last four of the Septim Dynasty
The emperors, Uriel VI, Morihata, Pelagius IV, and Uriel VII, were so suspicious of the Psijics that they prevented the envoys from the Isle of Artim from entering the Imperial capital.
The Croats still make suggestions to the royal family, but their influence on imperial politics is much reduced.

Only seventeen new members were added. But from 3E 430 to 3E 432, the years before the Annihilation Crisis, as many as thirty people joined the order. Now it seems that this is obviously a Psijic preparation for the coming
It is not widely known how the Psijics responded to the Annihilation Crisis and the subsequent Thalmer took over Summerset Island to establish the separatist regime of the Third Ancestral China. However, the Thalmer regarded the Psijic Order as a hostile organization.
The Psijic Order and Artim disappeared again around the second century of the Fourth Era. The specific reason for the island's disappearance is still unknown, but it coincided with the Night of the Void and a new wave of expansion of the Third Ancestral Godland. Perhaps
Once again, the coming crisis was predicted in advance.
What is known is that at least some members of the Order are still observing events in Tamriel. When the Eye of Magnus was discovered by members of the Academy of Winterhold in 4E 201, several Psijics helped the Academy members escape from
Thalmor spies snatched it back from their hands, and eventually even retrieved the Eye of Magnus themselves. The Psijic Order is generally regarded as one of the most powerful mage organizations in Tamriel. Some have suggested that they "
The power gained from practicing the ancient ways comes from the manipulation of nature itself, not magic." However, because the two most famous magicians in history, Vanus Galilean and Manimarc, were both taught by Sai
The Ik Order trains, and the Order is always described as being extremely professional in the research and teaching of mystical magic, so it can be guessed that "either the power given by the ancient path is not completely different from the magic practiced by other mages, or the Sai
Ike practices them as relevant subjects".
Some of the Order's most impressive achievements have to do with the scale at which they unleash their spells. They can move the island of Artim at will or make it vulnerable to enemy invasion, and some believe the island's occasional disappearance over the centuries is the result of Psijic
A way to leave this world during the chaotic period of history. The destruction of the fleet of King Ognum, the anchor of the island nation of Pandonia, at least proved that the Psijics were powerful enough to control the weather in a large area.
Whether it's moving Artim Island or creating a storm, it's all powerful magic at the level of forbidden spells.
It is no wonder that the Psijic Order is deeply feared by the rulers of the Pancontinent. It is also understandable why the Psijics live in seclusion on an overseas island and remain as neutral as possible.
