The boy's name was Tamriellen. He gave himself that name when he finally became a pirate. He did not become a pirate overnight. In fact, we can trace his path from a deck sweep, to a javelin thrower on a whaling boat, to skipper, and eventually to captain. At that point, he spoke to his men. They became ambitious, their sense of ethics were lost, soon he had them tight in his grasp. "Tamriellen," they chanted, "lead us to where the gold is!"

To this day, we do not know the exact location of Tamriellen's travels. Some old legends say he traveled across the Illiac Bay when it was being founded. Other legends say that, millennia later, he was there when the first Septim was crowned. Still, other legends say he traveled away from Tamriel to a place where no one has visited.

As for his acts pertaining to piracy, let's assume that he did become a pirate and that he did plunder many merchant vessels and slay men. Legend has it that when he passed by a merchant fleet made to finally capture the dreaded "scourge of Tamriel", that he somehow cast a invisibility spell over his entire ship (or had an especially powerful daedra do it for him) and passed through the entire fleet! Next, they say that after passing this massed fleet, he invaded Illiac Bay and wooed the princess Gythinel.

Legend has it later that was the beginning of a long friendship, for they eventually became friends, and then lovers. After years of plundering, it is said that the princess had eventually satiated his wondering spirit. Soon after, the tales of Tamriellen stop. At this point, bards often sing their love songs.

It can be inferred that Tamriellen, after a long period of wondering, eventually settled down in some far away land and began a family with his lovely wife.
