{{Lore Link|Alessia}}, also known as '''Queen Alessia''' or '''Saint Alessia''', led the [[Lore:First Era|First Era]] rebellion against the [[Lore:Ayleids|Ayleids]], freeing the humans of [[Lore:Cyrodiil|Cyrodiil]] from slavery and founding what became the First Cyrodilic Empire. As its first Empress, she established a new religion, a fusion of the
[[Lore:Nord|Nord]]ic and [[Lore:Aldmer|Aldmer]]i pantheons known as the [[Lore:Eight Divines|Eight Divines]]. On her deathbed in {{Year|1E 266}}, she was sainted by [[Lore:Shezarr|Shezarr]]{{Ref|name=COTF|{{Cite book|Cleansing of the Fane}}}} (in some stories [[Lore:Akatosh|Akatosh]]{{Ref|name=TOSA|{{Cite book|Trials of St. Alessia}}}}), her soul placed in the central stone of the [[Lore:Amulet of Kings|Amulet of Kings]].{{Ref|name=TAOK|{{Cite book|The Amulet of Kings}}}} The Covenant between gods and men was made here.

Alessia is not her birth name, but rather a corruption of a title, '''Al-Esh''' ("High Highness"), that was given to her by her followers. Another title bestowed on her was '''Paravant''' ("The First"). From corruptions of these two titles come countless other names by which she is known to various peoples, including '''Perrif''', '''Paravania''', and '''Aleshut'''.{{Ref|name=TA|{{Cite book|The Adabal-a}}}} The [[Lore:Alessian Order|Alessian Order]] is so-called because she purportedly appeared to the prophet {{Lore Link|Marukh}} in a vision and bestowed her teachings upon him.{{ref|name=TIOD|{{Cite book|The Illusion of Death}}}}{{Ref|name=PGE1C|{{Cite book|PGE|1|Cyrodiil}}}} <includeonly>For more information, see the [[Lore:Alessia|full article]] on Alessia.</includeonly><noinclude>
Alessia was born to one of Cyrodiil's many human tribes and grew up in {{Lore Link|Sardavar Leed}}, known at the time as Sard.{{Ref|name=TA}} As with all humans of Cyrodiil in the First Era, she lived as a slave under the Ayleids, the elvish race that ruled Cyrodiil. She prayed to [[Lore:Akatosh|Akatosh]] and the [[Lore:Aedra|Aedra]] for liberation from the [[Lore:Daedra|Daedra]]-worshipping Ayleids.{{Ref|name=TAOK}}
Alessia's prayers were answered when she was granted three visions by the Aedra at {{Lore Link|Sancre Tor}}. Once free, she established her holy city there and began an open revolt against her slavemasters.{{ref|name=TLST|{{Cite book|The Legendary Sancre Tor}}}} Working alongside the demigod, Morihaus, Alessia raised an army. In {{Year|1E 242}}, Alessia's third vision came true when [[Lore:Pelinal Whitestrake|Pelinal Whitestrake]] wandered into her encampment covered in Ayleid blood; her second champion had arrived.{{Ref|name=TSOP2|{{Cite book|The Song of Pelinal, v 2}}}} With momentum growing stronger, human forces took control of Cyrodiil east of the [[Lore:Niben River|Niben]].
Forging alliances with [[Lore:Skyrim|Skyrim]] and rebel Ayleid lords,{{Ref|name=TLKOTA|{{Cite book|The Last King of the Ayleids}}}} Alessian forces encircled the capital of {{Lore Link|White-Gold Tower}}. With coalition forces hesitant to attack, Pelinal Whitestrake stormed the tower alone and slew the Sorcerer King [[Lore:Umaril the Unfeathered|Umaril the Unfeathered]]. Eventually Morihaus followed with the rest of the army and captured the citadel. Slowly but surely the Ayleids were pushed out of Cyrodiil; many became refugees, fleeing to [[Lore:Valenwood|Valenwood]].
With the capture of the White-Gold Tower in {{Year|1E 243}}, Alessia declared herself the first Empress of the new Cyrodilic empire, and was given the Amulet of Kings by Akatosh as proof of her claim.{{ref|{{Cite book|Chim-el Adabal: A Ballad}}}} One of the first challenges facing the new empire was the establishment of a religion acceptable both to the people of Cyrodiil, accustomed to an [[Lore:Aldmer|Aldmer]]i-derived pantheon, and to her [[Lore:Nord|Nord]]ic allies, who were opposed to any elven deities. As a compromise, she established the Eight Divines, which incorporated elements of both Aldmeri and Nordic religions.{{Ref|name=SATD|{{Cite book|Shezarr and the Divines}}}} This religion continues to be the dominant religion of Cyrodiil although, with the addition of [[Lore:Talos|Talos]], it is now more commonly known as the [[Lore:Nine Divines|Nine Divines]]. At the end of the [[Lore:Great War|Great War]], the Empire signed the [[Lore:White-Gold Concordat|White-Gold Concordat]], which outlawed worship of Talos throughout the Empire, reverting worship back to Alessia's original pantheon.{{Ref|name=TGW|{{Cite book|The Great War (book)}}}}
Upon her death, it was said that Alessia was buried in the catacombs beneath Sancre Tor. This later developed into a tradition by {{Lore Link|Reman Cyrodiil}} and {{Lore Link|Reman Dynasty|his successors}}, who were also buried under the city; however a competing tradition asserts that Alessia was instead buried on the site of the {{Lore Link|Temple of the One}} in the {{Lore Link|Imperial City}}.{{ref|name=TLST}}
