Murdered, you say? Yes, I... I remember. I'm sorry, outlander, but many did not know what they did. For so long I have dreamed. There were flashes sometimes, insights. My own, maybe? Or that of my brethren, or my lord? ...It does not matter, for he is dead now. You may find the outlander in the cave by going to the island east of this city. Please, don't tell anyone of my indiscretions. They are not the fault of any but the Mad Lord under Red Mountain, and he is no more.

Into darkness he climbed, twisting scales and bringing smiles to the sleeping, dreams to the betrayed... my dreams, oh, my dreams. What? Who are you? Leave me, outlander!

Dragged where surf and crawling worms go down, down, down, at behest of star-wound and the red in my eyes.

Try... down. By the waves. In the dark. Uh, I mean you could try looking near the water. Sorry, I'm rather preoccupied. Try asking someone else.

Very well. The pursuit of justice above all, I suppose. I tried to broker a trade partnership with Gavros Falas several weeks before his death, but he had branched out into the trade of ash statues. I am a loyal servant of the Tribunal, outlander, so I cut my ties with him. Faith is my law! I didn't kill him, and I don't know who did. Regardless, I think his death was just.

The Hlaalu should never have come to Aanthirin, and certainly should never have hired heathen outlanders like you to do their bidding!

Comfort is given, justice is taken. You see what I mean?

Yes, I heard he met a nasty end. Such is fitting for heretics.

Excuse me, I think I see someone I know.

Maybe you should try asking your own kind, outlander.

I would rather talk about my wares, outlander.

I've already given you his letter. I'm getting out of here while I still can.

He came here to make a fortune among the Hlaalu. I warned him Morrowind was not an easy place to start a business in, but he wouldn't listen. I believe the reason he's missing is because he has been murdered. Look, he sent me this letter. It mentions this Darane Navur in Almas Thirr, and a cave called Molkobal.

Ask in the Dancing Cup, he usually hangs around there. It's just southeast of the Temple.

I'm afraid I've not seen him. But I believe his nephew Honon is around here.

I heard he met a tragic end. His nephew followed his own advice and left Morrowind as soon as he got the news.

Thanks again for investigating that matter.

So he's dead? Well, I'm not surprised, but it's important that we find the murderer.

On your way.

So you think the Camonna Tong is to blame? Without any evidence, I have no reason to believe your accusations, %PCName. We will continue to be vigilant for the real murderer, of course. Anyway, I think you deserve these spell scrolls for your help with the investigation. They could be quite useful in your future business with our House.

It's disturbing to hear that the Sixth House was gaining a foothold on the mainland. But thanks to your heroic deeds, I see no reason to worry about this anymore. While being a minor task in comparison, I'm still grateful for your help in resolving this matter, %PCName. Here, take these spell scrolls. I think they could be useful in your future business with our House.

That is... disturbing. But I see that you have proof in your hands. Let me take these, so I can see to their destruction. Do not let word of this get out, %PCName. Rumor of the Sixth House murdering smugglers would be very bad for business indeed. Anyway, I think you deserve these spell scrolls. They could be quite useful in your future business with our House.

You claim there is some cult aiming at restoring the ancient House Dagoth, and that they are responsible for Gavros' murder? That is... disturbing. Given the proof you are bringing, I fear you may be right. Let me take these, so I can see to their destruction. Do not let word of this get out, %PCName. Rumor of a dangerous cult murdering smugglers would be very bad for business indeed. Anyway, I think you deserve these spell scrolls. They could be quite useful in your future business with our House.

You claim someone murdered Gavros because he was smuggling ash statues? That is... disturbing. They don't look like the usual trinkets, so I fear something evil is going on here. Let me take these, so I can see to their destruction. Do not let word of this get out, %PCName. Rumor of a mysterious group murdering smugglers would be very bad for business indeed.

I see. So this is yet another symptom of the growing tension between House Indoril and House Hlaalu as we exert our influence over Aanthirin. I suppose it's only traditional for House Indoril to settle their disputes through assassination, but it's a shame that an ignorant outlander had to be caught up in it. We'll naturally have to take action on this, but the process may take a while. Thank you, %PCName. Here, take these spell scrolls. I think they could be useful in your future business with our House.

What have you found?

What have you found?

So you didn't find any clues to his whereabouts in his house? Perhaps you should ask around; maybe someone has seen him.

One of our Dunmer merchants has been causing trouble for weeks by not complying with our trade policies, and now he has gone missing. He is an outlander, but that doesn't excuse him. Go pay Gavros Falas a visit and see what the issue is. His house is on the street leading to the docks. If he's not home, try asking around. I'm sure someone will know where he is.
