It's quite an interesting piece. The way the soul is woven through the fabric is truly unique. Such a shame that Gindaman can no longer study it.

Adequately done. I will glean far greater insights from it than that pedagogue Gindaman ever could. In exchange for your services, I will offer you some secrets of my own. Now pay attention. I'm not going to repeat myself.

If it was possible to get around the sigil barrier, I'd have done it myself already. You'll need the amulet that lets you through. There must be several in the guildhall. Try to find one by detecting the enchantment on it. Or see what you can learn by talking to Banvira Auctoria. Or just kill her, and take the one she's presumably been entrusted with.

Perhaps, as a fellow Telvanni, you've heard of Perthan Larns. He was a notorious Daedra who sowed terror throughout Telvannis centuries ago. After his defeat, his soul was used to enchant the Left Hand of Mercy. I wish to study how Larns' soul expresses itself through the enchantment. Now do you have the glove or not?

My plans for the Left Hand of Mercy are none of your business. This is a House Telvanni concern, and you are not Telvanni. Now do you have the glove or not?

Have you retrieved the Left Hand of Mercy yet?

Good. Now listen closely. According to my contacts, Gindaman's chambers are secured by a Daedric sigil which is impassable by most magical means. His deputy, Banvira Auctoria, should have an amulet somewhere that will let you bypass it. Bring me the Left Hand of Mercy, and I'll see you rewarded accordingly.

How unfortunate. Until you change your mind, we have nothing more to discuss.

The glove in question is the Left Hand of Mercy, currently possessed by Arch-Mage Gindaman of the Firewatch Mages Guild. I need someone to get inside his chambers, retrieve it, and pass it off to me. You'll be fittingly rewarded, of course. Does this interest you?

I don't know who told you about the Left Hand of Mercy, but it stays with me. This is not up for discussion.

Aren't you already working with Gindaman? If you need something from him, just go to his office and ask him directly.

I haven't heard of anything like that, but the Arch-Mage tends to keep his studies private. And secured. He doesn't let just anyone into his chambers. You'd need an enchanted amulet of passage to get through the barrier, and I can't imagine this is important enough for me to go get my spare.
