Moshurian originates in Kóftąbriác Yeldha, the language spoken by the Paleoyeldhic people who first settled the Munsanukh<ref>''Munsanukh'' is a loanword from the indigenous Sudún language, ''*mzṹ'waẜn'', meaning "river through mountains".</ref> Valley following the eastern exodus of indigenous peoples. Eventually, a landslide blocked off any sort of entry or exit of the Munsanukh Valley save for the surrounding mountains and Tuloor Lake, forcing the Paleoyeldhic settlers to begin to congregate in larger "cities<ref>Translated from Zeror of Ilda's ''Ildaksa Mondenikās'', where the word ''ogetöhmnudu''(''lit'' many houses built of wood) is used to probably refer to the congregated settlements of the Paleoyeldhic settlers.</ref>". These consecutive events over centuries eventually led to the establishment of Ťhàfhü, which further began to centralise the now incredibly diverse populations of the valley.

The first mention of the Moshurians in literature was in  Zeror of Ilda's<ref>in 406 BH, during the golden age of Moshuria, Zeror of Ilda wrote the ''Ildaksa Mondenikās''(''History of Ilda'', ''Ilda'' being a synonym for the wider eastern Talkoch coast.), which documented the history of eastern Talkoch as he knew it.</ref> ''Ildaksa Mondenikās''. in the literary work, the Moshurians are called by various names: Zeror states that in his home region of Ilda, they are called the ''Tulōrii''(people of Tuloor (Lake)), while in neighbouring Maranösia they are known by their most common exonym, the ''Muẕorii''([[Ilda]]nified version of [[Ancient Yeldha]] ''möşhüř''). in the Mezcof Basin, they were apparently known by two names; ''Oētuɫii''<ref>From the Moshurian endonym, ''uthilikh''</ref> and ''Meizirii''<ref>How the exonym arrived in the Mezcof is unclear, although Zeror theorises that it may have been from the Piryētk word ''mud̪ēbe''.</ref>.
