You are Hortator of House Telvanni. You have fulfilled that part of the prophecy. And you are Hortator of all three Great Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni. You have fulfilled the Fourth Trial of the Seven Visions.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni. You have fulfilled that part of the prophecy. But you must be Hortator of all three Great Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni, before you have fulfilled the Fourth Trial.

As sole surviving councilor of House Telvanni, you must declare yourself Hortator of House Telvanni. And when you have been declared Hortator of all three Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni, then you will have fulfilled the Fourth Trial.

I do not know the ways of wizards. I have heard they honor the tests of life and death, as we do. The ones who live, live a long time. The ones who die are forgotten. They are old, and strange, and terrible. I know little. But I am afraid. And that is my counsel to you. Be afraid. It is no time to be bold and careless. It is no time to hoard your treasures. With wizards, there are no second chances.

Speak to Master Aryon, Archmagister. He holds the Robe of the Hortator.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

As you have the votes of all surviving Telvanni councilors, you are now the Hortator of House Telvanni. Do you know about the Robe of the Hortator? If not, speak with Master Aryon. It's a clan heirloom created for the Hortator. It goes with your office.

Yes, I have cast my vote for you.

Of course, %PCName. I understand, and trust you with my vote. I also wish to help you. Please accept these scrolls.

I understand, %PCName. And I would like to think that I can trust you with this. I will vote for you to be the Hortator. I also wish to help. Please take this scroll.

I understand, %PCName. And my people here in Ranyon-Ruhn consider you trustworthy. I will vote for you to be the Hortator.

I understand, %PCName. And my people here in Ranyon-Ruhn consider you trustworthy. I will vote for you to be the Hortator.

I understand, %PCName. And my people here in Ranyon-Ruhn consider you trustworthy. I will vote for you to be the Hortator.

I understand, %PCName. Your intent is clear, and you seem capable. I will vote for you to be the Hortator.

I must decline. I cannot say that your story is not true. Perhaps it is. You do seem capable. But for all your prowess, you have never done anything for my people, and I cannot trust you to be the Hortator.

I must decline. I cannot say that your story is not true. Perhaps it is. It remains that you are not trusted by me or my people, and I cannot support someone I cannot trust as Hortator.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

I'm not certain. I recall that all the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. Why?

You'll have to speak directly to Master Mithras about this. I can't help you. This is too important for me to act without his approval.

I think a Hortator is a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. House Telvanni unites under a Telvanni Hortator in times of war. Why?

That is up to you, Archmagister. I suppose you should talk to young Master Aryon.

You are Hortator of Great House Telvanni.

You have the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors. That means you are Hortator of Great House Telvanni. You have yet to don the official raiments of your office. You must talk to Master Aryon about this.

Yes, %PCName. You have my vote.

I have been keeping an eye on your actions. If this is why you have been opening up the ranks of our council, the matter must be serious. Very well. I agree, and vote for you to be named Hortator.

No. Your pretexts matter little to me. You mean to further encroach on our House in the interests of the Empire, and this will not pass. If you do not put an end to your scheming, I will kill you.

I have heard your story. Your arguments are sound. You have the abilities required of a War Leader. Very well. I consent to it. I will vote for you.

I have heard your story. Your arguments are sound. You have the abilities required of a War Leader. And you have worked for me before. Very well. I consent to it. I will vote for you. When this is over, perhaps we may again collaborate to our mutual advantage.

No. Your pretexts matter little to me. You mean to further encroach on our House in the interests of the Empire, and this will not pass. If you do not put an end to your scheming, I will kill you.

No. Your pretexts matter little to me. You mean to further encroach on our House in the interests of the Empire, and this will not pass. If you do not put an end to your scheming, I will kill you.

No. Your pretexts matter little to me. You mean to increase your standing in the house, that much is clear. Do not expect me to fall for this.

No. Your pretexts matter little to me. Whoever's interest it is you represent, I will not support you.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an ancient tradition. Archaic, since a Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time. We've had no need of a Hortator in my lifetime. Why?

We've heard talk about a reborn Nerevar for years, and thought it was just Ashlander superstition. And it sounds like a crisis is coming with Dagoth Ur and the Sixth House. You'll have to speak directly to Mistress Rathra about this. She lives in Tel Ouada. You should be able to find a river strider to take you there.

A Hortator is a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. House Telvanni would unite under a Telvanni Hortator when faced with a war. In theory.

If that is your wish, Archmagister. Talk to Aryon.

You are Hortator.

All the surviving councilors have voted in your favor. I suppose this means you are now Hortator. Please take these matters to Aryon from now on.

You have my vote. Enough about that.

I understand. You have my vote. Is that all?

I understand. I will give you that vote, if only to keep you from pestering me. It will not matter unless all the others agree.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an old tradition, rarely used -- never in my lifetime. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time.

You'll have to speak directly to Mistress Faruna about this. Her tower, Tel Oren, is south-east of Firewatch, in the Molagreahd, on the eastern coast of the Inner Sea. There's no convenient way to get there. I must also warn you. Mistress Faruna is reclusive and takes little interest in such matters. You should make your case swiftly and not bother her with long arguments.

That's a title given to a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. Why?

Of course, Archmagister. You should also talk to Master Aryon about this.

Yes, you are this Hortator.

You have the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors. You are therefore the Hortator of House Telvanni. You should speak with Master Aryon about this.

You have my vote.

I... ah, I certainly would not want to interpose myself in these native affairs. There is no need for any hostility between us, rest assured. You will have my vote.

I have no interest in ancient native conflicts, and you would not be the brightest candidate for this position in the best of times. But hese events endanger the House, and these are not the best of times. We cannot wait for a better option. You will have my vote.

As you say. These native prophecies might well be more than empty prognostication after all. But you would claim to be the solution to this? No, I don't believe so.

Intriguing. This is why you seek to be War Leader. Those who are willing to listen will judge by your martial abilities and forgo the test of wits. You have, however, proved your cunning to me before. Certainly. I will name you Hortator.

You make a good case. I have no interest in ancient native conflicts, but these events endanger the House. I will vote for you.

As you say. These native prophecies might well be more than empty prognostication after all. But you would claim to be the solution to this? No, I don't believe so.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

Well. I don't remember, exactly. I'm fairly sure that all the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. Since a Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, it stands to reason that the candidate would have to know something about war.

You'll have to speak directly to Mistress Eldale about this. Her tower, Tel Darys, lies just south of Port Telvannis. You can take a river strider, or simply fly there.

Isn't that a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses?

The Archmagister of House Telvanni, Nerevar reincarnated? How entertaining. You should talk to Aryon about this.

You're Hortator. What else do you want?

You have the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors. That means you are Hortator of House Telvanni. Fine. For the ceremonials, go talk to Aryon.

Yes, I have voted for you.

I care little what sort of schismatic or acolyte you are. You will not see this through.

War leader. Nerevar reincarnated. You, a pawn of the Temple? Your priests couldn't be happy about that, could they, pawn? Or is this all of their own plotting? No. I will not vote for you.

War leader. Nerevar reincarnated. I'm sure some are very upset about this. Good. Let them be upset. I will vote for you.

Again with your superstitions? I said no. Now leave.

Prophecies and visions? Is that all you have? Do not bother me with this.

What? No. Enough with this foolishness. Leave.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an old tradition, rarely used -- never in my lifetime. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time.

I see. Well. It sounds important. You'll have to speak directly to Master Vaerin about this. His tower, Tel Vaerin, stands atop Alt Bosara, south of Lake Boethiah. River striders from Llothanis can take you there.

That's a title given to a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. Why?

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

You have the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors, and are now Hortator. You should speak with Master Aryon in Tel Vos. He is the custodian of the Robe of the Hortator, which represents your office.

You have Lord Dral's vote for Hortator.

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an old tradition, rarely used -- never in my lifetime. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time.

I see. I have consulted with Lord Dral. He... Lord Dral's vote is cast in your favor, %PCName. Yes, you must be named Hortator. And as the surviving councilors have also voted for you, you are now the Hortator of House Telvanni. You should speak with Master Aryon in Tel Vos. He is the custodian of the Robe of the Hortator, which represents your office.

I see. I have consulted with Lord Dral. He... Lord Dral's vote is cast in your favor, %PCName. Yes, you must be named Hortator of House Telvanni.

[After a long while, Malvas Relvani's mouth opens and silently outlines a few words.]

Your story is concerning. You would normally have to speak to Lord Dral on a matter of such importance, but getting to him is challenging. To say the least. ... Very well. The process is as unpleasant to me as the interruption is to him, but I will bid for his attention...

Your story is concerning. You would normally have to speak to Lord Dral on a matter of such importance, but getting to him is challenging. To say the least. ... Very well. The process is as unpleasant to me as the interruption is to him, but I will bid for his attention...

Yes. How inconvenient.

You'll have to speak directly to Lord Dral on a matter of such importance.

The situation is troublesome, if what you say is true. However, you'll have to speak directly to Lord Dral on a matter of such importance.

That's the traditional title given to a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. Why are you interested?

Speak with Master Aryon, Archmagister. He must give you the Robe of the Hortator.

You are Hortator of House Telvanni.

If you have the votes of all surviving Telvanni councilors, then you are the Hortator of House Telvanni. And do you know about the Robe of the Hortator? If not, you should speak with Master Aryon. It's a clan heirloom created for the Hortator. It goes with your office.

I have chosen you as Hortator of House Telvanni.

All the standing Telvanni councilors vote to choose a Hortator. The vote must be unanimous. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, so the candidate should either be a skilled and inspiring leader, or a wizard or hero who excels in single combat.

Yes, of course. Your story is quite compelling. And there's no question about the proof you offer. I have found you, on the whole, an agreeable colleague, and I think you are a most suitable candidate for Hortator of House Telvanni.

I'm afraid I'll have to decline. No, I believe your story. And there's no question about the proof you offer. But I feel that lately you have treated me disrespectfully, and I find it offensive. Perhaps we do need a Hortator. But perhaps we do not need someone like you to be that Hortator.

It is a historical term, referring to a special office of war leader conferred upon a general or hero in time of war. Why?

I'm not sure. I think I recall that all the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. Why?

You'll have to speak directly to Master Baladas about this. I can't help you. This is too important for me to act without his approval.

I think a Hortator is a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. House Telvanni unites under a Telvanni Hortator in times of war. Or something like that. Why?

Very well. I have heard your story. And you are one of us, so I suppose I owe you a direct response. I have no intention of naming you Hortator of House Telvanni. It is clear you intend to use the office of Hortator as a means of advancing your own interests in the house. I refuse to discuss the subject further. My opinion will not change. If you continue to annoy me, I will kill you. This discussion is over.

Very well. I have heard your story. And you are not one of us, so I suppose I'll have to explain. Or you'll just keep annoying me. I have no intention of naming you Hortator of House Telvanni. It is not in Telvanni interests to name an unknown and unreliable outlander and outsider to such an important position. My opinion will not change. If you persist in bothering me, you will regret it. This discussion is over.

As any educated Dunmer knows, all the Telvanni councilors would need vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote would have to be unanimous. It's an archaic tradition, not invoked since I was an apprentice. Since a Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time, we have no need of a Hortator.

I said, I will need some time to reflect and consider, and to confer with the other Telvanni counselors. And I told you to leave me. Don't make me repeat myself.

No. Wait. Let me think.... Yes. I understand perfectly. Your story makes sense. Your proofs are persuasive.... But a decision on such a remarkable matter is a grave responsibility, and not to be taken in haste. I will need some time to reflect and consider, and to confer with the other Telvanni counselors. Leave me.

Yes, yes. I know what a Hortator is.

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an ancient tradition. Archaic, since a Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time. We've had no need of a Hortator in my lifetime. Why?

You'll have to speak directly to Master Gothren about this. And right away. His tower, Tel Aruhn, lies just northwest of Sadrith Mora. You'll need to water walk. Or fly. You can do that, can't you?

A Hortator is a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. House Telvanni would unite under a Telvanni Hortator when faced with a war. Well, in theory.

That's nice, dear. Is the Hortator that silly thing you showed me? Would you do it again? Ooooo! Thank you! Oh. Dear. Tired now. *Zzzzzz.* [Mistress Therana has apparently fallen asleep in mid-sentence.]

You gave all the councilors a hormador? No? That thing you showed me, then? I'm glad, dear, really.

You want to see my hormador? Oh, dear, where did I put it? In the basement? What did you say? You want to BE a hormador? Well, if that's what you want, go right ahead. I remember my first hormador. I used to have a little baby scrib, and I kept him in my hormador, but he was eaten by spider. With a man's body. Down in the basement. What were you saying? Where did you go?

...In hormadors. Big ones. Needed 'em big, for the spiders. What? Spiders? You listening? Spiders. That's what I said. Big ones. So you need a big hortator. Ours was steel, with silver plating. Kier-jo used to polish it. Cute little kitty. Had it since it was a bitty kitty. Gone now, of course. Dropped dead. They get old, and you have to get new ones. Never quite as good as the old ones, of course, but what can you do. Oh! There you are, %PCName! What was your name again? Are you listening to me?

What? Oh. You want to be a Hortator? Certainly. Go right ahead. Whatever you like. I don't mind. What were we talking about?

Who wants to talk about hormadors? That's boring. It's so boring here, with no one to talk to. Except Tilami Heralo. And Monosa Darys. And Muldroni Rendas. And whasshisname, Bals Tadrus. And all they talk about is themselves. It's so dreary. If only they'd do something smart. Or surprising. Or funny. Or something to do with spiders. But, no. Just.... *Zzzzzz.* [Mistress Therana has apparently fallen asleep in mid-sentence.]

Hmph. Mustn't be rude, now. It's Mistress Therana speaking to you. And when Mistress Therana speaks, everyone LISTENS. Don't they? Because if they don't, then they get very stiff and get stuck way down in BASEMENT WITH THE SPIDERS.

[Mistress Therana continues to chatter amiably, with no sign of stopping. She looks like she could go on forever.]

[Yes, indeed. Sustained as she is by the necromantic arts, it may be that she can, in fact, go on forever. Chattering amiably. Without stopping. Ever.]

Goodness. Where did you learn how to do that? Can you do it again? Oooo! Very pretty! Do it again! Oh, please? Please? Oh, certainly. I have a hormador around here somewhere, if you'll just.... Oh. You want to be a Hortator? Certainly. Go right ahead. Right after you do that thing again. That's amazing! Oh, goody, goody....

...it's a steel box, of course. You keep things like bittergreen roots in it, keeps 'em fresh, with a little netch blood. Or is that a hormador? Yes. Or spiders. In the box. Spider eggs. Keeps 'em fresh. With netch blood. You wouldn't have any with you, eh? Spider eggs? Nice fresh ones? So, go ahead. Show me the hordador. Hormador? You got it with you? Always happy to get some fresh spider eggs. Or spiders? When I was a MUCH younger, we grew our own spiders...

You'll have to speak directly to Mistress Therana about this. Her tower, Tel Branora, is south of Sadrith Mora, on the southeast point of Azura's Coast, on a long peninsula. There's no convenient way to get there. I must also warn you. Mistress Therana is very eccentric. It is often hard to get and keep her attention. You'll do better if you try and keep her happy, and not distract her with long arguments.

Isn't that a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses?

Ha! I bet Berel Sala and his Ordinators are frothing at the mouth. Nerevar returns... as a woman! And as the Archmagister of House Telvanni! I wish I could see his face now. To make things official, you'll need to talk to Master Aryon.

Of course, Archmagister %PCName. Go ahead. Do whatever you want. Maybe you should talk to Master Aryon.

So? You've got the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors? That's very good news. Now you are officially the Hortator of House Telvanni. Go with Azura's blessing. And do you know about the Robe of the Hortator? If not, you should speak with Master Aryon. It's a clan heirloom created for the Hortator, and you should have it to go with your office.

And do you know about the Robe of the Hortator? If not, you should speak with Master Aryon. It's a clan heirloom created for the Hortator, and you should have it to go with your office.

You have my vote, %PCName. I just wish I could see Berel Sala's face when he hears that you have been named Hortator by all three Great Houses. I am confident that you can earn the votes of the other councilors... Well, except maybe Gothren. Someone ought to retire him quietly.

Yes, I heard your story. I believe you. You have my vote. There's no need to stay here.

Hmm. So there's something to those old prophecies after all. Pig-headed Battlemages don't pay attention to Lady Azura's portents as they should. And you are the foretold Nerevarine? Quite a shock to those mallet-headed House Fathers, eh? Nerevar comes back... as a woman? Haw! Certainly. I'm quite happy to name you Hortator. Here. Take these scrolls with you. Never know when they'll come in handy.

Oh, that's so pathetic. Look at the poor bunny. Oh, I suppose now we must be merciful, and at least listen to it.

Well. Aren't you the cutest thing. And that wink is so adorable... I MUST have it. Here! Hello? Who's on duty? I need someone to hold this fellow's head while I gouge that cute little winking eye out...

Oh, it's not a man. It's leaving.

Hmm. Well. I'm glad we listened. And glad you persisted. So there's something to those old prophecies after all. I shouldn't wonder. Pig-headed Battlemages don't pay attention to Lady Azura's portents as they should. And you are the foretold Nerevarine? Well, then. You shall be our Hortator. You have my vote. And my blessing. And this scroll. It will come in handy where you're going.

Oh, b'Vek. I think it's a man....

Oh, b'Vek. I think it's a man. It's wearing a man's skin. For now. Listen. Very carefully. There is nothing wrong with males. There's nothing wrong with rats, per se. I just don't like males. Or rats. So I think you'd best be going. While you can.

How did this man get in here? Hello? Who's supposed to be on duty? Will someone show the poor thing out? It must be lost. Utterly and completely lost. Body and soul. Lost in the darkness that surpasses understanding. Do I make myself clear, manling?

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an old tradition, rarely used -- never in my lifetime. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time.

Good grief. We've heard talk about a reborn Nerevar for years, and thought it was just Ashlander superstition. You'll have to speak directly to Mistress Dratha about this. She lives at Tel Mora, a tower north along the coast. You should be able to find a ship at the docks to take you there for a pittance. And I must warn you. Mistress Dratha doesn't like men. Of any race. I suggest you do everything possible to improve her disposition before talking to her.

Good grief. We've heard talk about a reborn Nerevar for years, and thought it was just Ashlander superstition. And it sounds like a crisis is coming with Dagoth Ur and the Sixth House. You'll have to speak directly to Mistress Dratha about this. She lives in Tel Mora, a tower north along the coast. You should be able to find a ship at the docks to take you there for a pittance.

That's a title given to a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. Why?

Fine. Whatever. I don't mean to be rude, Archmagister, but shouldn't you be talking to young Aryon? This whole Hortator business sounds like something he's be interested in. I want no part of it. Now, if you'll excuse me...

So? You're Hortator now? Fine. But what makes you think I give a damn? Just shut up and go away.

So? You got the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors? Yes, I know. That means you are Hortator of House Telvanni. But what makes you think I give a damn? Go pester Master Aryon if you want someone to talk to.

Just go. Be the Hortator. Leave me alone.

Hortator? War leader of House Telvanni? Is that necessary? Why doesn't anyone tell me about these things? So. Do you want the job? Are you qualified? Good. Then go ahead. I don't care. Be the Hortator. Now go away.

What are you going on about? Prophecies, visions, superstitious jibber-jabber? Don't interrupt me with that nonsense. Go bother some bone-through-the-nose shaman or bug-eating wise woman.

No. No. No. Not another word. What the hell are you talking about? And who do you think you are? NO. Just shut up! Nonsense! Superstitious nonsense! Don't interrupt me with such foolishness. Just shut up and go away.

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an old tradition, rarely used -- never in my lifetime. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time.

I see. Well. It sounds important. You'll have to speak directly to Master Neloth about this. Tel Naga, Master Neloth's tower, is right in the center of Sadrith Mora.

That's a title given to a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. Why?

You have defeated Dagoth Ur and the Sixth House has fallen once again. You may keep the title of Hortator for a time, as there may still be need for a war leader.

I have given you the title of Hortator and the Robe of the Hortator. I wish you luck.

As Archmagister of House Telvanni, you are uniquely qualified to bear the title of Hortator. There's no need to speak with the others Councilors. I must also give you the Robe of the Hortator. It is an ancient artifact, not used in centuries. I hope you are pleased with it, Archmagister %PCName.

I see you've gathered the votes of all the surviving Telvanni councilors. I, too, am willing to vote for you as Hortator. That means you are now the Hortator of House Telvanni. And I have something for you. It's called the "Robe of the Hortator." It is an ancient artifact, and hasn't been used in centuries. But I think you'll be pleased. I wish you luck, Hortator. I may even pray for you.

I have given you my own vote for Hortator of House Telvanni. But you must get the votes of all the surviving councilors.

The Telvanni councilors would have to vote, and the vote would have to be unanimous.

Yes, I understand. You are willing to take the responsibility, and I am willing to vote for you as Hortator. I think the other Telvanni councilors will also cooperate, though some might need a little persuading. Master Neloth is ill-tempered, Mistress Dratha doesn't like men, and Mistress Therana is losing her mind. Archmagister Gothren is another problem. He will not refuse you directly, but will delay indefinitely. I recommend that you to kill Archmagister Gothren.

Yes, I understand. You are willing to take the responsibility, and I am willing to vote for you as Hortator. I think the other Telvanni councilors will also cooperate, though some might need a little persuading. Master Neloth is ill-tempered and Mistress Therana is losing her mind. You are not a male, so Mistress Dratha will like you. Archmagister Gothren is another problem. He will not refuse you directly, but will delay indefinitely. I recommend that you to kill Archmagister Gothren.

A Hortator is a special champion and war leader chosen to lead a Great House in war. Why do you ask?

All the Telvanni councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. It's an old tradition, rarely used -- never in my lifetime. A Hortator's duty is to lead a Great House in war, and we haven't had a war in a very long time.

That's not a pleasant story. And it means trouble is coming, for all the Great Houses. I'm afraid you'll have to speak directly to Master Aryon on a matter of such importance. His tower, Tel Vos, is north along the coast. You can probably get a ship to Tel Mora, then water walk west to Vos village and Tel Vos.

That's the traditional title given to a special champion and war leader among the Great Houses. Why are you interested?

House Telvanni has named you as their Hortator.

Master Aryon in Tel Vos is the one most open to new ideas. He may give you some advice.

I am surprised you were able to get House Telvanni to name you as Hortator. You must truly be the Nerevarine.

Be careful when dealing with the Telvanni. They are all powerful and the power drives some of them mad. Of the ones I have dealt with, Master Aryon of Tel Vos seems the most honest.

Yes, I understand. You are willing to take the responsibility, and I am willing to vote for you as Hortator. I think most of the other Telvanni councilors will also cooperate, though some might need a little persuading. Master Neloth is ill-tempered and Mistress Therana is losing her mind. You are not a male, so Mistress Dratha will like you. Archmagister Gothren is another problem. He will not refuse you directly, but will delay indefinitely.
