Peryite (listen) is the Daedric Prince of Pestilence and Disease. While he has yet to be encountered directly, his influence has been felt through the cultists linked to him.

Chronicle of FateEdit

When you locate Torvesard with the second stolen glyphic, near Cipher's Midden, you can hear some stray words coming from the Glyphic of Lost Memories:

Meln the Mouthless: "Look!"
<Torvesard intently listens to the glyphic.>
Torvesard: "Again."
Peryite: "… too far, Mora!"
Vaermina: "It doesn't matter what you foresee …."
Hermaeus Mora: "… reality, you must all … forget!"
Torvesard: "And there it is. Another piece of my memory restored. We should speak, mortal."

You speak with Torvesard and learn the secret Hermaeus Mora tried to keep forgotten for so long. Torvesard invites you to view the glyphic and leaves, having achieved what he wanted.

 
Glyphic of Lost Memories

Interacting with the Glyphic of Lost Memories, your surroundings become a starscape and this time you fully hear and see the argument:

<Peryite's Statue appears>
Peryite: "You go too far, Mora!"
<Vaermina's Statue appears>
Vaermina: "It doesn't matter what you foresee. You can't do this to another Prince! Or to the rest of us, for that matter!"
<Hermaeus Mora's Statue appears between them>
Hermaeus Mora: "You have seen the damage Prince Ithelia has already done to the fabric of fate. If left unchecked, reality will unravel."
Vaermina: "All of us must agree, Mora. And I definitely do not. Memories are sacrosanct, as are the domains of the Princes!"
Peryite: "You can't punish someone for something they might possibly do."
Hermaeus Mora: "I must. The risk is too great. I am truly sorry, but there is no alternative. For the sake of reality, you must all … forget!"
<There is a flash of light, the memory's surrounding drip down like ink, revealing reality and the actual Hermaeus Mora watching you.>
Hermaeus Mora: "What was forgotten has been remembered. We must speak."
