Morian Zenas, (?b - ?d)

Morihatha, Queen (3E 285 - 3E 339)

Daughter (son?) of King Uriel ?V, twin to Eloisa and half sister (brother?) to Uriel VI. Married Baron Ulfe Gersen of Winterhold which aided her brother's Uriel VI quest to tame the Elder Council, which he did by 3E 313.

When King Uriel VI fell from his horse and could not be saved by the finest Imperial healers in 3E 320, his beloved sister Morihatha took the throne. At 25 years of age, she had been described by (admittedly self-serving) diplomats as the most beautiful creature in Tamriel. She was certainly well-learned, vivacious, athletic, and a well-practiced politician. She brought the Archmagister of Skyrim to the Imperial City and created the second Imperial Battlemage since the days of Tiber Septim. Morihatha finished the job her brother had begun, and made the Imperial Province truly a government under the Emperess. Outside the Imperial Province, however, the Empire had been slowly disintegrating. Open revolutions and civil wars had raged unchallenged since the days of her grandfather Cephorus II. Carefully coordinating her counterattacks, Morihatha slowly took back her rebellious vassals, always avoiding overextending herself. Though Morihatha's military campaigns were remarkable successful, the Council was often frustrated by her deliberate pace.

One Councilman, an Argonian named Thoricles Romus, furious at her refusal to send troops to his troubled lands, is believed to be the man who hired the assassins who claimed her life in 3E 339. Romus was tried and executed, though he protested his innocence. Morihatha had no surviving children, and her sister Eloisa had died of a fever four years before. Eloisa's 25-year-old son Pelagius was crowned Pelagius IV.
