Marukhati Selective The Marukhati Selective , sometimes spelt Maruhkati Selective , named after the First Era prophet Marukh , was a fanatical sect of the Alessian Order originating in the Middle - First Era , dedicated to removing Aldmeri influence from the religions of man , specifically disproving the belief that Auri - El and Akatosh were the same god . The Selective was formed during a widespread schism of the Alessian faith , their zealotry and power being great enough to be considered a significant internal threat to the Alessian Order . It is implied that the Arch - Prelate , Fervidius Tharn , secretly led both opposing ideologies during the schism . Beliefs . The Marukhati Selective was heavily devoted to the teachings of the Monkey - Prophet Marukh , which is why the order bears his namesake . The original guidelines of the group were seven dictations each considered to be equal in importance and were thus all listed with the number " 1 , " they were referred to as " The Exclusionary Mandates " . Some of the Marukhati Selectives early doctrines and teachings were inspired by the Psijic Order , though the Selectives would deny this . History . The Middle Dawn . The Marukhati Selective performed many rituals to prove that Auri - El and Akatosh were not one in the same to no avail . With this known , the goal of the Selectives changed to altering Akatosh to support their own beliefs . The secret master of the Marukhati Selective , Fervidius Tharn , channeled the Aurbis itself to remove the essence of the Elvish Auriel from the Imperial Akatosh . Each Selective began initiating chants of proper - life to achieve a state of monothought until a staff / tower appeared in front of them that the secret master proceeded to dance upon until it withered , breaking into eight parts and spoke its protonymic . This action created the Dragon Break known as the Middle Dawn which would last for 1008 years ( 1E 1200 – 1E 2208 ) , and with the Dragon Break ensuing , the Selectives utilized a technique called Right Reaching to manipulate the universe . The precise details of Right Reaching are unknown , but they involve the Hurling Disk and the Mnemoli . During these years very few texts survive , though just about all of them conflict with each other when regarding people , and regions ; some wars are mentioned that never happened in other sources , and the sun changed color according to certain accounts . It is even said that the gods may have walked among the mortals at this time . Whether or not the Marukhati selective had achieved their goal is not known as all records of the group were erased during the War of Righteousness . Contemporary . Certain sources seem to imply that the Marukhati Selectives may still , secretly , exist , possibly making their home in Port Telvannis . It is known that at least one individual who refers to them self as a Selective , still exists , and that this person , known as Xal , has shown interest in the metaphysical concepts behind the Psijic Endeavor and the Numidium . Whether or not these Selectives are truly what remains of the original order , or rather a newly reformed group taking on their name , is not known .
