| − | + | I'ssei was born to a Keeper of the Moon Mother, Sizha Nelhah, and Seeker of the Sun father, I'rra Tia. The story goes that I'rra Tia of the Buffalo tribe wished to be the Nuhn but despite all his efforts he was never strong enough to best their current breeding male. Instead of accepting his role of Tia the young Miqo'te tried to convince some of the huntresses to follow him to start their own tribe. However, all the huntresses were too loyal to the current Nuhn and most viewed I'rra as nothing but a weakling. I'rra, instead of starting a new tribe, left the Sagoli and traveled the lands of Eorzea, visiting the various city states and country sides. That is until he came upon a female Keeper of the Moon hunting in the Shroud and found himself instantly smitten. The female, Sizha Nelhah, was at first uninterested in I'rra but as the two got to know each other better they slowly started to fall in love. The two spent a year together in the shroud. They spent most of their time together and moved around often because Sizha was a poacher, which was illegal and she was often on the run from the woodwailers. However, two years after I'rra had left his tribe one of his siblings came looking for him, explaining that the tribe had gotten into trouble with the Amalj'aa and a war had broken out between the tribe and a faction of the tribe. The sibling urged I'rra to return and fight, and seeing it as his duty I'rra reluctantly left Sizha's side to return. He promised he would be back when the trouble was over, but ended up never returning to the black shroud. Much to Sizha's dismay she found out soon after that she was pregnant and nine months later she gave birth to I'ssei. Since he was half Seeker and half Keeper she decided to mix the traditions when naming him, giving him the paternal first name I'ssei and her last name Nelhah. She hoped this would please I'rra when he returned. | |

Ever since her birth I'ssei was very protective of his sister and as he grew he was often left in charge of her while their mother was gone hunting for them.

However, the two were too exited by their new discovery to realize they had walked right into Amalj'aa territory. The Amalj'aa discovered them quickly and ambushed the two children, intending to capture them to be sacrifices to Ifrit. A few Amalj'aa managed to grab them, but I'ssei easily fought them off, using fighting skills he had learned from his mother.

The trader explained that the Amalj'aa encampment I'seei had stumbled upon was not a permanent one and that the beastmen had already moved on and even so the Miqo'te's was too wounded to chase them.

History
I'ssei was born to a Keeper of the Moon Mother, Sizha Nelhah, and Seeker of the Sun father, I'rra Tia. The story goes that I'rra Tia of the Buffalo tribe wished to be the Nuhn but despite all his efforts he was never strong enough to best their current breeding male. Instead of accepting his role of Tia the young Miqo'te tried to convince some of the huntresses to follow him to start their own tribe. However, all the huntresses were too loyal to the current Nuhn and most viewed I'rra as nothing but a weakling. I'rra, instead of starting a new tribe, left the Sagoli and traveled the lands of Eorzea, visiting the various city states and country sides. That is until he came upon a female Keeper of the Moon hunting in the Shroud and found himself instantly smitten. The female, Sizha Nelhah, was at first uninterested in I'rra but as the two got to know each other better they slowly started to fall in love. The two spent a year together in the shroud. They spent most of their time together and moved around often because Sizha was a poacher, which was illegal and she was often on the run from the woodwailers. However, two years after I'rra had left his tribe one of his siblings came looking for him, explaining that the tribe had gotten into trouble with the Amalj'aa and a war had broken out between the tribe and a faction of the tribe. The sibling urged I'rra to return and fight, and seeing it as his duty I'rra reluctantly left Sizha's side to return. He promised he would be back when the trouble was over, but ended up never returning to the black shroud. Much to Sizha's dismay she found out soon after that she was pregnant and nine months later she gave birth to I'ssei. Since he was half Seeker and half Keeper she decided to mix the traditions when naming him, giving him the paternal first name I'ssei and her last name Nelhah. She hoped this would please I'rra when he returned.
As time went on Sizha started to give up that I'ssei's father would ever return, figuring he had either died in the fight against the Amalj'aa or simply didn't care to come back. She ended up mating with another Keeper of the Moon male and when I'ssei was three his younger sister was born, Rheia Nelhah. Shortly after Rheia was born her father left as well. Ever since her birth I'ssei was very protective of his sister and as he grew he was often left in charge of her while their mother was gone hunting for them. The two grew up close since they only had each other to play with and never had a chance to meet any other children. They often wandered the Shroud together, playing among the thick trees with only the full moon for light. However, as I'ssei grew he started to become curious about the world outside the twelveswoods. His mother had often told him that his father had come from the Sagoli Desert and he yearned to travel to it some day.
The two children started to wander farther in the woods, often leaving their home for days much to their mothers dismay. One day, when I'ssei was thirteen moons and Rheia was ten, they managed to find a way out of the thick woods and followed a path to Eastern Thanalan. However, the two were too exited by their new discovery to realize they had walked right into Amalj'aa territory. The Amalj'aa discovered them quickly and ambushed the two children, intending to capture them to be sacrifices to Ifrit. A few Amalj'aa managed to grab them, but I'ssei easily fought them off, using fighting skills he had learned from his mother. However, as he tried to free Rheia from there grasps one of the Amalj'aa took up a spear and stabbed him through the stomach and I'ssei collapsed. Figuring the wound was fatal, the Amalj'aa thought it too much trouble to take I'ssei to Ifrit so instead they took his sister and left the young M'qote to die.
Luckily for I'ssei he was discovered less than an hour later by a wandering trader with a basic knowledge of conjurer magicks. The trader took him in and used the magick to slowly patch up his wound. Once I'ssei was able to regain consciousness for long enough he told the trader what had happened, and urged him to help him raid the encampment to get his sister back.

After he explained what happened his mother was devastated and ignored his pleas to go after the beastmen together. Instead she explained she would go after them herself and I'ssei was to go find his father's tribe and live with them instead. When I'ssei refused to leave her, Sizha bargained with the trader that had brought him back, offering the trader furs and meats in return for him taking I'ssei to the Buffalo tribe in the Sagoli. The trader happily agreed and against his will I'ssei was taken to Buffalo tribe to search for his father, if he was even still alive.
Upon reaching the tribe I'ssei learns that his father was in fact alive and the war they waged with the Amalj'aa had reached a temporary truce. I'rra took advantage of the chaos that ensued when fighting the Amalj'aa to become the new breading male. He was now I'rra Nuhn. I'rra was skeptical of I'ssei when they first met, having not known Sizha had given birth. Despite this I'rra decided to let young I'ssei into the tribe, but forbid him from telling anyone of his Keeper of the Moon heritage or that I'rra was in fact his father. Instead I'rra came up with the story that he had found I'ssei wandering the desert on the hunt and that all he knew was his name, I'ssei Tia
I'ssei was raised by the tribe and forced to conform to their traditions and rules. It was hard for him at first to adjust to the tribal life and his new surroundings. He found being awake during the day hard and at first he despised the hot desert sunlight. He would often try to run away to pick fights with the Amalj'aa or try to find a way back to the Shroud, but his father always saw to it that he returned. Eventually I'ssei stopped trying to run away and managed to adjust to his new life and even found himself liking it. Unlike when he was living with his mother there was lots of others in the tribe for him to play and interact with and he found himself enjoying his new-found family.
Then the calamity struck. The tribe's home was ravaged by wreckage from the fallen moon and they lost many lives in the chaos, including I'rra's. Devastated and in mourning in the wake of the calamity, the tribe gathered together the few members they had left and wandered the Sagoli to look for a new home. I'ssei lead the way and a year after Dalamud's fall they managed to find a new permanent home in the desert and things had nearly returned to normal. I'ssei was urged to take his father's place as they new Nuhn, but he refused. Instead I'ssei made the hard decision to leave the tribe to find his mother, afraid her life had been taken in the calamity as well. He traveled to Gridania only to find his old home their too had been destroyed as well. After four years of searching I'ssei had no choice to give up, finding both his mother and sister had vanished without a trace. He traveled instead to Ul'dah and decided to study the sword in the gladiators guild for a year before leaving again to travel the realm as an adventurer and free Paladin.
