You used it for an enchantment? What a waste of a good soul. Now, I won't be able to appreciate it. And study it, of course.

You smashed it? What a waste of a good soul. Now, I won't be able to appreciate it. And study it, of course.

Who? Oh, the one in the soul gem. Yes, I will get to her eventually. Certainly. Don't you worry.

She is likely still on Tynachos' shelf.

You gave Missa's soul to Tynachos? Do you want her to sit on a shelf forever? It's possible he might discover something that may help her, but it's far more likely she gathers dust in the corner for decades.

I've already said everything that I wanted to say to you. I hope you have enough decency not to use the weapon.

So, you allowed Zissicheeiva to use Missa's soul to enchant a weapon? You've doomed that poor woman to the eternity of suffering, I hope you know that. Every swing of that weapon will burn as if it is her flesh being struck, and she will be powerless to do anything about it.

Missa Rhyle's soul has been put to rest. There's nothing else to talk about.

She's in great torment right now, and the only way to set her free is to smash the soul gem.

The mage that you were sent to contact? What about her?

I once again would like to implore you to find a way to unbind her soul, if you haven't already. That is sadly not something I would be able to assist you with, but it is something that should be done nonetheless. Maybe one of the mages back at the guild could, though. And in regard to the conversation you had with her, you don't have to worry about a thing. I value the confidentiality of my clients above all else, and everything said in the ritual room I am taking with me to my grave.

To contact her spirit, I need to loosen the soul gem's barrier, and to do that, I need to conduct a ritual of my own, remember?

Good. As I was saying. Whatever the soul gem's purpose originally was, now the energy contained within is being used to power a binding spell. Must be a harrowing experience. I can loosen the barriers to afford you a few moments of conversation, but for that I need to conduct a ritual of my own.

Hmph. Goodbye then.

Trapped inside a soul gem? And she spoke to you from within? I find that unlikely. Soul gems cannot contain a spirit, only its energy. Let me take a look. How peculiar. Powerful enchantments have been placed upon it. I could help you. However, have you forgotten that thanks to your efforts, necromancy is now illegal in Old Ebonheart? The fine is 5000 drakes. Are you offering to pay it?

I don't understand why you would decide to waste her magicka like this. It's not every day you come upon a human soul in a soul gem, you know?

You gave it to Tynachos? What a waste! All of this precious energy will now gather dust in his collection for decades.

You destroyed the gem? What a waste! Missa is as dead and as free as she was before you had done it, but all of that precious energy is now scattered across the wind.

Do not grieve her. Any mage I know would love to have contributed to something greater, even in death.

She is gone. Totally gone. There is no way to free her and no way to bring her back. The best thing we can do is to rebind her soul energy into something useful and beautiful.

You have been expelled, %PCRank. You have to make amends before talking about this further.

Because of you, she will never be able to share her knowledge with us.

If not for the information she had provided, we would have never known how to untangle the pocket guildhall from Vorthas Uldun.

You should use the time you have now to set Missa free. It's the least we can do for her.

Vorthas Uldun? Are you certain that's what Missa Rhyle said? And Khalaan, if memory serves me right, that's the name of the native city that once stood here. Could the destruction have been ritual in nature? Such power! The situation just got much more serious than I feared. We could be in grave danger. Here's what we're must do: I am going to read up on the city and the realm, while you should find a way to set Missa free. That's the least we could do to repay her.

You killed the necromancer? Why would you do that? We have no way of contacting Missa Rhyle now. I don't have any more duties for you. Think twice before doing anything so stupid again.

You did what? Why would you interrupt the ritual and waste our only lead? I don't have any more duties for you. Think twice before doing anything so stupid again.

I'm not entirely sure that a necromancer will be able to contact Missa, but you did say that you saw her corpse, right? This probably means that she's dead, so it's at least worth a try.

Say that again? She is dead and trapped in a soul gem? This is terrible news for us. Must be terrible for her as well. Let me think. Just a minute. I've got it. We need a necromancer to help us establish contact with her. This hall doesn't have a resident one, but I know there's one in town. Hastophos Velifer is his name. Get him to reach her by whatever means necessary, and then get her to provide any insight about our pocket guildhall corruption problem. You got it? Good. You can go now.

She's a master conjurer and an expert in communication with the other planes, which by necessity made her an expert in Daedric history. Coupled with her upbringing here, in Morrowind, makes her a perfect person to answer all of our questions about the pocket guildhall's corruption. Now, you just need to go to Ald Nishput and get her to talk.

She's an expert mage and, what is more important for us, a local. I need you to go to her base in the tower of Ald Nishput and get her to share anything and everything she knows about major pocket realms in the Old Ebonheart area. Ald Nishput is located in the Sundered Scar region to the east of here, directly north of the Indoril ruin of Ald Verya at about halfway point between it and the coast of the Inner Sea. And one more thing, be cautious. Missa Rhyle is not the most pleasant person to deal with.
