Nowa

Nowa is an Argonian commoner found in the settlement of Hissmir. She has come to Hissmir as a pilgrim and is standing near a copy of Path of the Pilgrim. She is studying under one of the Root Stewards, Steward Paduxi, who can be overheard asking her about the Hist and related topics. She may be studying to become one of the Root Stewards.

Dialogue[edit]

Steward Paduxi will often approach Nowa and pose her philosophical questions.

Steward Paduxi: "What separates us, one from the other?"
Nowa: "Scales, skin, blood and bone? We are one in the Hist, of course."
Steward Paduxi: "No. Nothing separates us. The Hist is then, now, and forever. We are always one in the Hist."
Steward Paduxi: "Another question. The river's current carries away an egg-brother. What do you feel?"
Nowa: "I feel nothing. My egg-brother would be one with the Hist, returned and whole."
Steward Paduxi: "Those we meet on the river nourish us, just as the Hist does. Enjoy their presence, mourn their loss, and rejoice in the Hist."
Steward Paduxi: "I pose to you, scale-scholar: what is the Hist?"
Nowa: "The trees themselves, of course. The ground beneath our feet? The water that flows down the river? The breath of a new eggling?"
Steward Paduxi: "All are correct. The Hist flows from the sap to our veins, and connects everything in between."
