A sad story. May it serve as a lesson to other arrogant elves.

The %PCClass put the ring on without Ocrulun nearby? %Name fears Ocrulun may not be able to handle the bonewalker alone.

Everything went well for Ocrulun? %Name hopes he has learned his lesson.

Thank you again, %PCName, but I'd like to put that nightmare behind me.

And I foolishly believed the situation could be resolved peacefully. You've gone to great lengths to help me, %PCName. Thank you. Please, take this -- it's the least I can do to repay you. Now, I must excuse myself. I've never looked forward to taking a bath more in my life.

He did? I must admit, I wasn't expecting you to find success so easily. Thank you, %PCName. Please, take this -- it's the least I can do to repay you after all your help. Now, I must excuse myself. I've never looked forward to taking a bath more in my life.

I don't know what you did, but it worked! That bizarre rotting creature appeared out of nowhere, and just as quickly dropped dead at my very feet. It feels as though a great burden has been lifted from my shoulders. Tell me, what happened?

I don't believe it. The curse is finally lifted! Thank you, %PCName. Please, take this -- it's the least I can do to repay you after all your help. Feel free to keep that ring, too. I doubt I'll have any use for it any time soon. Now, my apologies, but you must excuse me. I've never looked forward to taking a bath more in my life.

Alright, %PCName, I trust you. May this nightmare soon see its end.

Of course, %PCName. Take whatever precautions you deem necessary.

A bonewalker, you say? This curse is even fouler than I had thought. But we must do as the warlock says. Are you ready, %PCName? Should I put the ring on?

The Khajiit gave you a ring to lift the curse? Don't tell me you lost it.

Does the %PCClass still have the ring? Use it to reveal the source of the curse. Don't worry, %PCName. %Name will find a new bonewalker.

As the %PCClass wishes. %Name has commanded a bonewalker to follow cruel Ocrulun wherever he goes. That is the source of the elf's stench. Take this ring. When %PCName next sees Ocrulun, one of you may put it on, and the bonewalker will reveal itself. When the monster is slain, the curse will be lifted. But %Name warns you not to put it on when %PCName is far from Ocrulun: the bonewalker will attack on sight. %Name may dislike Ocrulun, but he does not want to see him dead.

%Name will help, yes, but he requires payment in full first. The %PCClass should return when he has the money.

%Name will help, yes, but he requires payment in full first. The %PCClass should return when she has the money.

Then %Name will gladly keep the curse active.

Yes, %Name will lift the curse if %PCClass brings him 200 septims. Does %PCClass have the money?

Ocrulun is sorry and begs an outsider for help? %Name is glad to see the cruel elf has learned his lesson. He accused poor %Race of stealing and summoned the guards. Out of shock %Name spilled his favorite tea. Luckily, %Name is a merciful warlock and can lift the curse with ease. If the %PCClass really wants to help Ocrulun, he will not mind paying %Name 200 septims to do it, yes?

As I said, I recommend starting your search in the Almas Thirr Underworks. That Khajiit smelled like sewage.

Thank the gods. The warlock I mentioned is a Khajiit. I met him in Almas Thirr, a canton city on the Thirr River and north of Lake Coronati. He had his own particular fragrance about him, so perhaps you might start your search in the Underworks. I believe that's where you'll find the city's sewers -- as well as its less-than-savory types.

I can hardly blame you. I suppose this curse is my burden to bear.

Have we spoken about this before? Yes, I was once afflicted with such a curse, but it has since resolved itself.

It's no use getting into the details. I said some things I've come to regret. The warlock mumbled some nonsense in response, but I paid him no mind. It was only the next morning that I awoke with heavy limbs and noticed the putrid smell of rotting flesh lingering about my body. The next thing I knew, the guards had kicked me out of town! I can't return to Sadrathim like this. Will you speak to the warlock for me? Tell him I'm sincerely sorry and ask him to free me of this stench.
