Just because Hrothmund's Bane is magically sealed, that doesn't mean there isn't...something inside waiting for you. Be ready for a fight.

It's always a good idea to carry some cure disease potions while you're on Solstheim. A lot of the animals carry Ataxia or Yellow Tick.

They say spriggans die three deaths. Best to avoid them if I were you.

Sometimes it's worth killing a berserker just to get his weapon. Some of them favor special silver blades that are enchanted to do extra damage to their opponents.

If you run into any snow wolves or snow bears, attack them with fire. They have a natural weakness to it

If you're looking for a good short-bladed weapon, try to get your hands on a frysehag's winterwound dagger. Its magical frost can damage flesh and disintegrate armor.

At night, when the snow starts falling, it's hard to see more than a few feet in front of you. Either use a good light source or get indoors until morning.

No one will ever grow rich hunting. But it is a pure pleasure for itself. Take your time. Sneak up on your prey. Surprise it with a swift, silent arrow. There is no greater pleasure than to drop a cliff racer with a single arrow.

Go around trouble. Leave it behind you. Then return, later, when you can give trouble a big surprise.

Carry good nourishing food. When you stumble wearily into trouble, eat and refresh yourself, so you will fight well.

Don't make enemies. If someone is determined to be your enemy, then fight. But do not turn friends or potential friends into enemies through arrogance or carelessness.

You want my advice, outlander? Stay clear of the Cammona Tong. We don't like outlanders.

How do you judge a job's difficulty? Consider three things: location, opposition, and payoff. Long walks into the wilderness are usually tougher than local or town tasks. Tough opponents make tough jobs. Daedra, vampires, rogue Telvanni -- you'll learn which ones to look out for. And finally, if the reward offered is large, the dangers will be large, too.

How do you know when you've been given a task too tough for you? You have to decide. If it seems too tough, it probably is. Guild stewards and faction leaders don't really know how much you can handle. And some don't care. You have to look out for yourself. But as long as you haven't been given a deadline for completion, it's usually smart to wait and tackle those tough jobs after you're stronger and better equipped.

About doing quests for factions. If you try to complete every task you're given, sooner or later you'll run into trouble. Don't assume that, just because someone gives you a job, you ought to be able to complete it. When you get a job that's over your head, be patient. Go do something else for a while, and come back when you're tougher, better skilled, and better equipped.

I am sure you can persuade Dram Bero to support you as Hortator... if you can find him. Orvas Dren has Nevena Ules and Velanda Omani in his pocket. You might want to make a little trip to the Dren Plantation before talking to them. And then there's Yngling Half-Troll.

New here? Take the silt strider to Vivec or Balmora. Fast and cheap. No trouble with wild animals. And smugglers. And bandits. And outlaws. Go see Darvame Hleran over at the strider port, over the bridge and east along the water. And tell her Vodunius Nuccius sent you.

Take the silt strider to Vivec or Balmora. Fast and cheap. Go see Darvame Hleran over at the strider port, over the bridge and east along the water. And tell her Vodunius Nuccius sent you.

You look like you can take care of yourself. Then why don't you do something about those smugglers in Addamasartus cave? It's right over there near the silt strider port. Yet these guards! Look at them. Just strutting around. Someone must have paid them to ignore the smuggling going on here.

If you want to live to a ripe old age, buy a weapon and as much armor as you can wear and still run from trouble. Buy a spell or two. And practice your skills. Don't practice on citizens. We call that foul murder, and we don't like it. But you can kill smugglers and bandits and other outlaws all you like. Outlaws have no rights. Plenty of adventurers make a living from killing and looting outlaws. That smuggler scum down in Addamasartus, for instance. The cave down near the silt strider platform.

If you need directions, talk to our local scout, Elone the Redguard. She's here in the tradehouse somewhere. And you might want a copy of 'Guide to Vvardenfell' -- I think I still have a copy for sale.

Things are pretty tame hereabouts. But get off the roads and head northwest into the Bitter Coast, or northeast into the Ashlanders, and things get a lot more interesting in a hurry.

Looking for work? Not much around here. Better head to one of the towns to the north -- Balmora and Ald'ruhn -- and try the Fighters Guild and the Mages Guild. Or head for the big city -- Vivec -- to the east.

Thinking of setting yourself up as a mercenary or questing hero? Not much call for that around here. Rats and the occasional bandit are our only problems.

You're a freelance adventurer, yes? If you're looking for challenge, try Esutanamus, a Daedric shrine on an offshore island to the southeast, or Nchuleft, a Dwemer ruin to the southeast where the plains and the slopes of Red Mountain meet. They're large ruins -- easy to find.

You're a freelance adventurer, yes? There're many tombs, ruins, and lairs in the Grazelands to the south and west. Just keep your eyes open. They're often marked by a clump of rocks or trees at the entrance.

This is still very wild country out here in the Grazelands. Master Aryon is trying to get along with the Ashlanders, but there are still plenty of outcasts and renegade Ashlanders who attack outsiders on sight. The big Zainab Ashlander camp is off to the southwest. Don't start trouble with them. They are very sneaky, and their warriors are great fighters, but we're more-or-less at peace with them right now.

If you're a mercenary, or a questing hero, you must go visit Master Aryon. He always has lots of very ambitious projects going on. And you MUST see his tower. It's really something.

Vivec is huge. It is easy to get lost. But if you observe the law, you can't get into much trouble. My advice is wander freely. Learn your way around. See what the craftsmen and traders have to sell. See the sights the pilgrims come to see -- the Ministry of Truth, the High Fane, the Palace of Vivec. And while you're here, go take a tour of Ebonheart, the Imperial town across the lagoon to the west. A lot to see and do over there, too.

If you need to earn some money to support yourself while you're in Vivec, try the Imperial Guilds in the Foreign Quarter. They often have odd jobs for willing adventurers. And ask tradesmen and craftsmen you meet. They often have simple errands that need doing. The pay is small, but the goodwill gained by serving local people and the experience traveling around the city may be worth more than the gold you earn.

Mistress Dratha prefers female mercenaries and adventurers. Go see her. She may have some work for you.

Mistress Dratha doesn't like men. She won't roast you or anything. But if you want something from her, like a favor, or a job, be very proper and polite. Don't try to be funny. She does hire men for various tasks. But I always wondered if she saves the nasty work for males.

Go on inside if you like. Look around. But don't mess with anything. And if you're going to talk to anyone, talk real nice. Stay out of the dungeon, that's where all the corprus victims are. It's not pretty. And they aren't mean, really. Just crazy mad and hungry.

Stay out of things that don't concern you, outlander. This affair is between myself and Therana. I want no help. I'll tolerate no interference.

Stay clear, outlander. Trerayna Dalen is our mistress, and this is a high Telvanni affair.

You don't belong here, outlander. Trerayna Dalen is our mistress, and this is a high Telvanni affair.

Trerayna Dalen is our mistress, and this is a high Telvanni affair. There's no profit for you in this.

Go back the way you came, outlander. Trerayna Dalen is our mistress, and this is a high Telvanni affair.

Trerayna Dalen is our mistress, and this is a high Telvanni affair. You won't be welcome.

In principle, a member is not be given tasks that exceed the member's rank or abilities. In practice, sometimes mistakes are made. You are not expected to fail and die for those mistakes. Use judgement. Be patient. Take the initiative. Train yourself. Equip yourself. Study your target and situation more carefully. Then return to your task when you are ready, and succeed.

Let me warn you. The quests for the Temple at lower ranks are not too difficult. But suddenly after you reach Curate rank, the quests get very, very difficult. Don't be surprised if you have to do a lot of skill-building outside the Temple before you can handle the higher rank quests. These tasks are tests of faith, yes, but they are also tests of good judgement and common sense.

Just because your lord gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your lord doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And most Telvanni lords don't care.

If you accept a task from a superior, you are honor-bound to complete it. But unless there is a deadline, or an issue of honor, you are NOT supposed to die trying. Use common sense. If you find you are not yet ready to face a challenge, be patient, train, outfit yourself, and revisit the task at a later date.

Just because your superior gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your superior doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And some superiors don't care.

Nobody is going to hold your hand in the Legion. In the Imperial cult, they just test your faith and your shoe leather. But here, your superior gives you orders, and you find you're out of your depth, you're supposed to be smart enough to be patient, get some training, experience, and new equipment, and try it again later when you're better prepared.

The services required at lower ranks in the Imperial cult are not very difficult or dangerous. But any task you do for the Oracle, Lalatia Varian, will be very difficult, very dangerous, and suited only for experienced, powerful, well-equipped adventurers.

Look. If you're the bloody-minded type, tries to complete every task a boss gives you, you're in for a world of hurt. Happens all the time. You breeze through a couple of jobs, then you hit one you can't budge. I can't tell you what to do, but me, I go find something else to do for a while. Sure, nobody likes to admit you can't do a job. You brood over it, lie awake nights figuring how your gonna crack that nut. But patience and good sense is as important as blood and courage in this business.

Higher quality picks and probes are definitely worth their higher price. But keep cheaper ones around as well for the easier locks and traps. Also be sure to find a good source for buying these instruments.

If you have the patience, sneak around everywhere you go. It will take longer, and may arouse suspicion, but it's excellent practice.

Don't risk a frontal confrontation with anything. When in doubt, sneak.

Alchemists are easy targets for inexperienced thieves. They have far too many ingredients for them to keep an eye on all of them all of the time.

Merchants know their own inventories far better than you do. Never attempt to trick them into buying something you stole from them.

Noble families often aren't around to watch their manors so they lock everything up. This makes them a wonderful opportunity to practice your skill at picking locks in the privacy of someone else's house. And of course, don't neglect to check the contents of that chest after you pick it.

The elite of Morrowind may not have all the armor and equipment you need as an adventurer. But don't overlook precious stones or fine jewelry and clothing; to the right merchant those items can be worth more and be more easy to carry than some heavy iron armor.

You can't be a successful thief if you always steal from the same merchant, or even stay in the same town. After you've picked them clean, explore somewhere else to give them a chance to restock.

You will get slaughtered if you start acting like a warrior. Always sneak up to your target and take advantage of your stealth. Even a dagger is effective if used in the right way at the right time.

Keep a good sense of your surroundings, no matter how good you are sneaking, you're always better off if no one is around.

If possible, always take a single item at a time. It increases the risk, but it's excellent practice.

Always study your target, and take a good inventory of what he has before attempting to steal anything. If he has his eye on that shiny silver claymore, he won't notice you pocketing a few tarnished throwing stars.

Practice stealing and pickpocketing by taking cheap things from small merchants. Don't go after the big stuff until you're experienced.

How do you know when you've got a quest too tough for you? If it sounds too tough for you, it probably is. You must use your own judgement. Guild stewards don't really get to know your abilities. All they know is that a guy never comes back. They don't know if he got lost interest, or got eaten.

The farther from civilization you go, the worse the dangers. But there're exceptions to that rule. Ald Sotha is a short walk from Vivec. But only a five-year veteran with full kit ought to be peeking into that hole. And I hear there's a couple of spots in Vivec's sewers where you wouldn't send a team of Ordinators. But it's your call. You see something you don't like, back out, and find something else to do while you train and build up your kit.

Use illusion spells like invisibility to scout an area before you go on the offensive. Often a cunning spellcaster can simply avoid opponents and obstacles, move right to the objective, and leave without taking a scratch.

Join the Mages Guild. Rise ranks to get good rates for services. And stay in their good graces by minding their rules and performing the required duties.

A good strategy is to paralyze your opponent, cast some kind of touch spell that does damage for awhile, like poison, then retreat to a farther range to cast your targeted, long range spells. Recast paralyze if the creature isn't dead by the time they reach you again.

Learn the Mark, Recall, Levitation, and Open spells. Mark and Recall are essential for any long-distance travel. There are plenty of places you can't get to without Levitation. And treasure does you no good if it's behind a locked door or in a locked chest.

Invest in potions to restore your magicka. In hostile territory, these potions can save you a lot of downtime. Even supposing you can find some safe place to get some rest and regain your magicka, who needs the aggravation?

When you think you are just about to encounter some heavy opposition, get those shield-style spells up. The life they save may be your own.

Don't be afraid to invest in armor. Even if you carefully avoid close combat like a smart spellcaster, things go wrong, and armor can save your skin when the unexpected happens.

Use the spellmaker. It's cheap, and a custom-designed spell tailored to your skills, magicka reservoirs, and spellcasting style will always outperform the standard spells you buy from service casters.

Buy a spell of every type that you can find. This will give you the best options later when you're creating your own custom spells.

Buy paralyze as soon as you can. Keeps the creatures off you and allows you to cast those more elaborate spells.

How do you judge a job, decide if it's too tough for you? Good question. Me, I check three things: location, opposition, and payoff. First, if it's a long walk, I worry. If it's a Daedric ruin, or a Dunmer stronghold, or a Telvanni tower, I worry. If it's way up north, or near Red Mountain, I worry. Second, if the opposition is tough, I worry. Daedra worry me. Vampires worry me. Telvanni wizards worry me. Third, if the reward is fat, I worry. Nobody pays you a crate of gold for a walk in the park.

Nobody is going to coddle you in the Fighters Guild. In the Imperial cult, they give you stuff that old ladies could do in their sleep. But here, you get in line for work, and if something comes to you that is out of your depth, you're supposed to be smart enough to back off and come at it again later when you have the equipment and chops.

I bet old Mollimo and his hirelings could make short work of Trerayna Dalen. But they way I hear it, Mistress Therana has got Mollimo on a short leash. Won't let him out of the tower, wants to keep him and the guard real close so everything safe. Granted, it's probably the safest, and most economical tactic, but it's dull and tiresome, and I think it's getting on Mollimo's nerves.

Security is pretty tight at the tower, what with Trerayna Dalen's siege and all. Better not ruffle any feathers if you have any business in the tower. If Mollimo thinks you've got something cooked up with Dalen, he might kill you first and let the old necromancer ask questions later. Heh-heh.

Trerayna Dalen has challenged Mistress Therana for Tel Branora. Dalen and her mercenaries have been camped out here for months, but they haven't got much to show for it. I think she may have run out of steam. Or maybe the mercenaries are getting restless. Might be Therana's captain, Mollimo, would welcome some help.

The Shrine of Molag Bal is not a pilgrimage for the casual traveler. The interior is cursed and dangerous, and the Temple has not been successful in keeping it clean of Daedra-worshipping witches and warlocks. Go view the ruins from the outside, but don't go inside unless you are strong and well-prepared.

Don't bother looking for a convenient system of bridges or ferries across the lakes and rivers. There aren't any. If you're traveling in the Ascadian Isles, be prepared to get wet, or to use magic to fly or walk across the waterways.

The Fields of Kummu is an easy, safe walk southeast from town. Visit the shrine, and earn the blessing of Vivec.

If you do the crime, pay the fine. You KNOW you owe it. So why don't you just PAY the fine? You wonder why people look at you with a lousy disposition? Because there's gold on your head, and maybe someone in Black Marsh doesn't know it, but he's the only one.

Stay away from the mudcrabs. Swamp Fever. Or join the Tribunal Temple. Initiates get free Cure Disease at the shrines.

Some neglected ancestral tombs around here. Locals don't like it, but you can find some nice bits. Ghosts and ancestral spirit guardians are dangerous.

Some rough customers come into town now and then for supplies. I think they might be smugglers and bandits holed up locally. Be doing a public service to clean them up, and might find yourself some nice loot in the bargain.

New in Morrowind, eh? Well, the natives are not very friendly. They still resent the Empire, and they look down on the other races. They don't like outlander Dunmer very much either. If you aren't Dunmer and native-born, you're an outlander, just like the rest of us.

It pays to take it slow when you first come to Morrowind. When you talk to folks, keep an eye on their dispositions. They let you know if you don't like them, and it's smart to get on a f'lah's good side before you ask for a favor.

Best bet if you're new here is to hook up with one of the Imperial Guilds -- Fighters Guild or Mages Guild. It's not what you know, it's who you know. You'll get discounts on training and services, and if you need work, they know where to find it.

You look like a f'lah who knows his way around, eh? Looking for what others are looking for. Well, they don't have an Imperial charter, but there's honor among thieves, if you know what I mean. Look in the tradehouses and cornerclubs, talk around. If you look likely, and talk likely, they'll give you the word.

Don't expect the natives to take to you right away. Colonists like us -- outlanders, settlers from the other provinces -- will be more open and friendly at the start. Then, maybe when you do a few things, get your name around, gain a reputation, then the locals will open up a little. Stick to your own kind to start, and it will go a little easier.

Well, most outlanders stick close to the Imperial Guilds and the legions. But you might consider service in one of the Dunmer Great Houses. They aren't real fond of outlanders. And you have to look around hard for a patron -- someone who'll speak for you, help you advance to the higher ranks. But the Great Houses are where the real opportunities are. House Hlaalu and House Redoran are pretty reasonable. House Telvanni -- the wizard house -- they're another story.

DON'T head for the back country until you're ready. I did, and they took my stuff, and I count myself lucky. There's plenty of work, good opportunities near the towns down here in the southwest. But Red Mountain? No way. Out east with the Telvanni? Not yet. Up north in Sheogorad? Just toss your stuff in the water and slit your throat -- it'll be much faster, and less painful.

Hmm. You'll be looking for better armor. And a decent weapon. Let me make a suggestion. A lot of people out there are wearing very nice armor and carrying very nice weapons. You don't want to go taking those things from honest citizens, because you'll end up doing hard labor. But if you happen to find some outlaws wearing nice armor and carrying nice weapons, well, the bailiffs don't mind at all if you knock them over the head and take their stuff.

Me, I can afford it, so I buy my bed and board here. But there's no harm in sleeping rough, and eating what you can find. Anywhere outside of town you can just lay down and take your rest -- provided there ain't no thieves or kagouti around. But the guards don't like you sleeping in the streets. It annoys the gentry.

You can read, can't you? Well, read some books. That's what they write 'em for. Got all the damn advice anyone could want in 'em. Buy 'em, read 'em, sell 'em back. Most folks don't mind if you take a peek at what books they got. Proud of being book-learned. Of course, if the f'lah is SELLING books, he wants you to buy 'em, THEN read 'em. It stands to reason.

Don't know anything about adventuring? Here's the basics. Travel light, run like a kagouti. Don't go poking in holes unless you know what you're doing. Common sense.

Where to start. Probably in Balmora. That's the House Hlaalu district seat. They've got a Fighters Guild and Mages Guild there, and a legion fort -- though I don't know if they're recruiting. They have all the services you need -- trainers, smiths, outfitters -- and if you join a guild and work your way up, the discounts and perks are worthwhile.

Phew. You're bittergreen green, outlander. Might as well wear a sign, "New in Town." Word of advice. Buy a little good will. Lose a few drakes, gain a friend. Folks will loosen up if your spread a little of the Emperor's gold around.

Your first visit to Morrowind, outlander? Then learn the law and local customs. Get a copy of Law and Custom in Morrowind. Slavery is legal here. Foul murder is illegal, but if he strikes the first blow, you're in the clear. A verbal attack is illegal, just like an unprovoked physical attack. Folks are touchy about personal honor. Watch your tongue, or you'll get called out to a duel.

We see a lot of new faces like yours here in Seyda Neen. If you're hoping to stand out from the crowd, you need to practice a lot to improve your skills. And if you want to increase your general level of competence, focus on your major skills -- the ones most important to your trade. That way you'll advance more quickly. And another little tip newcomers forget. Always carry a little food so you can freshen up when fatigue gets you down. Eat a little, and you can feel your energy coming back.

You wouldn't think so, but there are number of old abandoned tombs in the area. I thought this area had never been settled, but apparently, long before the Empire opened Vvardenfell up for settlement, someone has put a lot of ancestors to rest here. Most of us can't get past a superstitious distaste for rooting around in ancestral tombs. But you're an outlander. It shouldn't bother you, should it?

Go to the Prefect of Hospitality, Angaredhel the Altmer, at the Gateway, and purchase the necessary Hospitality papers. It's not that expensive, and you don't want any trouble with the guards.

The best way to travel in Sadrith Mora is by the guild guide teleports at the Mages Guild in Wolverine Hall. It gets you past the foolishness at the Gateway, and most of the services you need are right in Wolverine Hall.

Looking for work in Sadrith Mora? Start with the Fighters Guild and the Mages Guild at Wolverine Hall. If you're thinking of trying to serve House Telvanni, go talk to the Telvanni Mouths over at the Council Hall.

According to the Collective Articles of the Council of the Great House Telvanni, out-house and outlander guests in Sadrith Mora may not travel in town or speak to or conduct business with citizens, tradesmen, or publicans unless they have Hospitality Papers. Hospitality Papers may be obtained from the Prefect of Hospitality, Angaredhel, at the Gateway Inn for 25 gold.

Sadrith Mora is the only place to shop for goods and services in the Telvanni District. All the other Telvanni settlements are small, with very few services and very poor selections.

Watch out for small camps of outcast Ashlanders. They prey on careless pilgrims. There's a large Ashlander camp beyond Mount Kand and Mount Assarnibibi to the north -- Erabenimsun camp. The Erabenimsun tribe is not very hospitable, but we're more or less at peace with them at present, so don't rile them.

Most pilgrims will need guards and guides to reach the pilgrim sites, but someone like you should have no trouble on your own. Follow Foyada Ilibaal northwest to Mount Kand, then Mount Assarnibibi is northeast of Mount Kand, across Foyada Zabirbael. Just take your time, keep landmarks in sight, and be ready to hoof it back to the stronghold if you get in trouble.

We've had a lot of trouble with blight monsters escaping through the Ghostfence and attacking the village and outlying settlements. The Temple and House Redoran has called for volunteers to come help protect Maar Gan from monster attacks. Talk to the priests at the shrine if you might be willing to help. And talk to the volunteers who are lodging at the Andus Tradehouse.

Visit the Tower shrine, and ask the priests there about it. Quite a story. 'To you, Lord Dagon, I bite my thumb.' Hah hah hah. Quite a trick. Maybe, if you're a questing hero, you'd like to match your wits against a Daedra?

Not much up here to keep a questing hero like yourself busy, I'm afraid. It's pretty quiet, and that's the way we like it. You might take a look at the Daedric ruins to the southwest, though. Don't know anything about them, myself. No business fooling with that stuff. But they say a lot of those old sites have hidden treasures.

People around here are suspicious of strangers asking a lot of questions. Maybe something they're doing isn't exactly legal. They don't want anyone poking around. You understand?

If you're looking for trouble, and not particularly superstitious, there are a number of ancient abandoned tombs in these parts.

There's a lot of wildlife in the Bitter Coast swamps. There's a market for alit and kagouti hide, and some folks swear rat meat is the sweetest meat in Morrowind.

There are nests of dreugh somewhere along the Bitter Coast. They're not to be trifled with. I don't think the value of the hide is worth the trouble. But it's the challenge and danger itself that attracts some people. More power to them.

You may have heard people refer to the Bitter Coast as the Smuggler's Coast. There's a reason for that. A lot of islands and coastline, with plenty of caves and hidey-holes, and few people around. Perfect for men with boats who want to keep their business private.

Here's a notion. Steal from thieves. Perfectly legal. Outlaws got no rights, and they'll none of them be missed. You're a big hero if you bag a few thieves. And you end up with their stuff. Slick, eh? Of course, it's dangerous. But you can't get ahead without taking some risks.

Mind your own business is my advice to visitors. Don't get nosy, or some people may take strong objection. If you think you're hot stuff, and you want to throw your weight around, go ahead. But I warned you.

They've sealed off the eggmine. Only letting miners in. But there is a secret entrance from the river bed.

Don't go poking around in the Old Velothi tower. The renegade Telvanni wizard Baladas Demnevanni lives there, and he doesn't welcome visitors.

It's pretty quiet right around Gnisis, especially for a questing hero like yourself. But out to the east are a bunch of bandit caves. Might be some loot and bandits there that'd be easy pickings for someone like you.

If you're looking for work, you might consider the Deathshead Legion. This is not a very popular posting, and there might be openings. Check with General Darius.

Since you're here, you should take a look at the Mask of Vivec. Ask Mehra Drora at the Temple to tell you the story behind the Mask of Vivec.

I bet you couldn't throw a stone around here without hitting a smuggler. 'Smuggler's Coast' is what they call this stretch of coast from Seyda Neen north to West Gash. Now, no one HERE would think of trying to cheat the Emperor of his taxes. No. We're loyal citizens.

A fellow looking for trouble might take a peek around in the old Daedric ruins on an island to the south. Probably safer than stirring up trouble in town, anyway.

You look like someone who is thinking about going into Red Mountain. We will not stop you. But we warn you: without protection from blight diseases, you won't get far. And even with protection, and plenty of blight cures when protection fails, you must plan on short forays inside and quick returns for heals and cures. And the creatures inside are terrible and numerous. And the ruins and citadels are worse.

The Imperial Legion may be recruiting. I hear the units are at full strength in the town forts, but there might be openings on the frontier, up at Fort Darius. Speak to Frald the White, Knight Bachelor and Chapter Steward of the Hawkmoth Legion.

We get pilgrims here from time to time, since we're the closest port to a pair of sites, the Malacath shrine and the Sanctus Shrine. If you were thinking of visiting the sites, let me warn you. I heard that a group of orcs are camped out over at the site of the Malacath shrine.

Lots of ruins here on Sheogorad. If you're an adventurer looking for loot, or trouble, it might be worthwhile exploring the island. Mzuleft is the big Dwemer ruin everyone knows about. But there are other places on the island, less famous, less often visited, that might be more interesting. And safer.

Caldera is a quiet, law-abiding town. Not much call for adventurers or mercenaries here. A good place to shop for equipment and look for a trainer, though.

Ald'ruhn is a good place for experienced fighters and mercenaries. Both the Fighters Guild and the Imperial Legion are looking for recruits, and they offer rapid advancement if you do well with the tasks the guild steward or the chapter steward assigns you. And if you're planning to make a career here in Ald'ruhn, you might consider House Redoran. It's hard for outlanders to rise above a certain rank, but if you show promise, and get a sponsor, you can go all the way to the top... in theory, anyway.

If you are looking for work, and have skill and experience in the arcane arts, you can't do better than the Ald'ruhn Mages Guild. Edwinna Elbert, the guild steward, is in her own world, like most mages, but she's good-hearted and sensible, if you can get her attention. And you can't advance very far in other factions around here unless you have good fighter's skills. Except, the Temple, if that's to your taste. People with arcane skills can rise pretty fast in their ranks.

Ald'ruhn is fortunate in having two enchanters and two alchemists. Even though Cienne Sintieve and Llether Vari are up in the more expensive Manor District, I think you'll find the selection and service with Tanar Llervi and Anarenen at the Mages Guild every bit as good. Of course, if you're affiliated with the Mages Guild, you'll want to try Tanar Llervi and Anarenen first.

Do yourself a favor, mate. Hook up with the Guild. Now, maybe I got you wrong, don't take offense. But I'm watching you, and you look and move like someone in the Trade. The Guild can help you. And frankly, the Guild could use your help. Maybe you know, maybe you don't.... The Guild and the Camonna Tong are in a Guild War for control of Vvardenfell. The Camonna Tong are the ancient Dunmer syndicate. They hate outlanders, and always will. If they win, there'll be no place for you here, outlander.

You look like you're looking for something. It might be you'll find it at the Rat in the Pot. A fellow named Aengoth the Jeweler. He's good at looking for things. And finding them. And a warning. Stay clear of the Camonna Tong. They don't like outlanders, and what they don't like, they kill.

If you want weapons or arms in Ald'ruhn, or need weapons and armor repaired, look for Dandera Selaro the Smith in Ald'ruhn-under-Skar. Dandera Selaro serves all comers, and has a quality selection. The other three smiths in Ald'ruhn have faction associations. Ergnir the Nord is the Fighters Guild smith, and Tuveso Beleth is the House Redoran smith at Redoran Council Hall. Yambagorn gro-Shulor is the Legion's smith at Fort Buckmoth. And Daynes Redothril the pawnbroker may also be worth a look.

While you're here, you have to take a look at the Daedric ruins. Ashalmawia. Very old. Remarkable. Safe to go up there, in the daytime at least. I wouldn't go inside, though. Place is cursed.

Strangers get lost up here. Be careful. My advice is keep an eye to the coast, then pick a landmark, then keep them both is sight as you explore. The Daedric ruins to the east, for example, are visible for a long distance.

We don't like outlanders. We don't like them in our Council Club. We don't like trouble. We do like a little peace and quiet. If you don't mind.

If you need to meet a guy, you want to look in at the South Wall, cornerclub, south of the river. Talk around; if they like your looks, they'll open up. But be careful. The Council Club, also on the south side, is Camonna Tong territory, the local mob. They don't like outlanders, except under building foundations.

Be smart. Join the Guild. Honor among thieves, right? You're new here, don't know your way around, get in a little trouble -- a lot of trouble, more likely. Oh, you'll learn, fast enough, I guess.

And they're a regular guild -- discounts on your training and services and everything. Do yourself a favor. Start easy, with friends. Then later, you want to freelance, fine.

You look like you might not faint wearing heavy armor. You might check out the Legion garrison at Fort Moonmoth. They like 'em big over there, and maybe they're looking for recruits. Good benefits, chance for advancement, get a piece of land at retirement, maybe even end up a knight.

Well, if you're considering a mercenary career, the Fighters Guild isn't too choosy. No, don't take offense. I just mean they're relaxed, easy going, give along, get along. Legion is a lot tougher outfit, and fussy about ends and means, if you follow me. And those House Redoran people -- well, they are tough and sharp, but a bit tiresome in the duty-and-honor line.

One little word. 'Ingredients.' Pointy hats and bottlepackers all need their ingredients. Go out, pop a skeleton apart, get the bonemeal, make a quick drake. Now, you have to be careful, because the locals don't like you out digging up their aunties. So get a book, read up, know the kinds of rocks and herbs you're looking for, and off you go. Start small. Leave the big Daedra and scary stuff alone, right?

If you want to make your mark as a mage, you haven't got much choice. It's the Mages Guild or nothing. Oh, you can pick up experience and education from the Temple or the Imperial cult, but here in the settled West, the Mages Guild has all the best people, best libraries and facilities, best work opportunities. Of course, all the REAL wizards are Telvanni Dunmer, out on the east coast. But they are all either cranky or crazy or just plain mean. You got to be tough just to TALK with those wizard-lords.

The easy way to get started is to join a Guild. Do their jobs, earn your way up the ranks, get the discounts, training, and other services. Gets you out and around in Vvardenfell, a little at a time, get to know the country and the people. The Guild takes an interest in you, doesn't send you in over your head. The Fighters Guild and the Legion, anyway. The Mages Guild is another story. Some old chair-polisher, doesn't have a clue what he's sending you into, doesn't much care.

Outlanders new in Vvardenfell do best in Balmora. House Hlaalu is Imperial through and through, and you get a good mix of native and Imperial people and services. Not as friendly to outlanders up north in House Redoran country, or down in big Vivec City, and DEFINITELY not friendly out east with the Telvanni wizards. Shop the outfitters, then check out the guilds for work. If you want to be adopted by a Great House, you'll need a patron, and that's easier when you've got a reputation.

If you do the crime, pay the fine, don't do the time. You might think a little hard labor isn't a bad price to pay, but while you're breaking rocks for the Empire, you lose the edge in your useful skills, and it takes a long time to get back to where you were before.

If you're heading into the backcountry, always carry a couple of Restore Health, Restore Fatigue, Cure Disease, and Cure Blight potions with you.

Oh yeah, sure. Heard ya the f-f-first time.

Wha?

Don't forget. You can't levitate in Mournhold. They say Almalexia doesn't want anyone's head rising higher than hers. If that's how you avoid trouble, it won't work here. You CAN levitate down in the sewers and ruins of Old Mournhold. I guess Almalexia doesn't go down there much. And it's also a cheap place to sleep, if you don't mind the rats and thieves.

If you're looking for excitement and loot, try the sewers. The residential and the Temple sewers are two completely separate drainage systems. Use grates in Godsreach and the Great Bazaar to reach the residential sewers -- and also in the Royal Palace, I've heard. I don't know about the Temple system -- probably in the Temple itself. The poor and the lawless live under the city, %PCName. It's dangerous -- but it's the only way to reach the ruins of Old Mournhold, where the real treasure lies.

My advice... leave me alone.

Whatever you do, don't mess with the Hands of Almalexia. If you think Ordinators are tough, imagine Ordinators with bodies, souls, armor, and weapons personally blessed and fortified by Almalexia.

You're an adventurer? Then you carry cure poison, dispel, and restore fatigue potions, as well as levitate and restore health potions. Right?

Overconfidence kills. Don't judge an enemy by his gear. The really dangerous ones don't NEED gear to kill you.

Don't get cocky. There's always someone tougher than you.

If you're looking for some action, try poking around in the sewers, Be careful. Others with similar ideas also spend their spare time down there. But you look like you can take care of yourself.

I've never seen a successful adventurer who didn't carry a couple of Divine Intervention scrolls with him on long expeditions. Two reasons. Emergency exit. And it lets you move a LOT more loot than you can carry on foot. And faster goes without saying.

If you do the crime, pay the fine, don't do the time. You might think a little hard labor isn't a bad price to pay, but while you're breaking rocks for the Empire, you lose the edge in your useful skills, and it takes a long time to get back to where you were before.

If you take a job that's too hard for you, don't kill yourself. Wait until you're bigger and stronger, then try again.

If you want to improve a skill you're terrible at, it's worth paying for a little training, just to get you started. Sure, you can teach yourself, but it can be slow and frustrating.

If you kill yourself trying to complete a job that's too difficult for you, it's nobody's fault but your own.

Don't fight when you're tired. Don't try to cast spells when you're tired. You'll fail much more often when you're tired. That's why veterans always carry a couple of Restore Fatigue potions for an emergency.

An offering of devotion at a shrine to the Tribunal can restore knowledge and skills lost to evil magics.

Gather any gear from your fallen enemies? Why not try your hand at repairing the notches you've put there yourself? Makes good practice, and you don't risk damaging your own equipment.

Try to sell a weapon to a smith -- they'll grab it, feel its heft, give it a few spins, point out all its flaws and then some, and give you a hard time about it all when it comes to the price, too. Try to sell a weapon to a pawnbroker -- all they'll think about it how much they can sell it for to the smith. And they make a living of it, the traders do, so you better believe they'll take their cut. You want to get the most out of battle spoils? Just skip the middle man.

Get your hands on any bonemold gear from the natives? The material's a bit tricky. That said, even if you can't do it yourself, repair fees are a relatively cheap investment. You know how hard it is to bargain with flawed merchandise.

A smith will overplay the slightest damage on a weapon when you're offering to sell. But smiths aren't the sharpest tools in the shed either, and you can be smart. Don't let on that you're selling and get it repaired first -- you'll have a much easier time bartering once your blade shines the right way.

Most beasts in the wild don't prey on their own. You wouldn't expect it, but that even goes for cliff racers. If you're planning to stay a while around a spot, take what you need from the kills but leave the carcasses right there to rot -- might deter others from swooping in, at least for a time.

Dunmer are very sensitive about necromancy -- especially when it comes to distinguishing one kind from another. A hedge-wizard conjurer tampering with corpses in a cave? That's bad.

Ever heard the tale of Harold the Dimwit? No? Perhaps you have, the title keeps changing. Either way, if you don't want it to become the tale of %PCName the Dimwit, remember what you've reappropriated from which merchants and don't try to sell them their own bloody merchandise.

Buy a spell of every type that you can find. This will give you the best options later when you're creating your own custom spells.

My tip for if you get into a scrap: don't get hit. A weapon with a blinding enchantment can send your enemy's swings wide, while a silencing enchantment can stop a mage from casting spells.

Practice stealing and pickpocketing by taking cheap things from small merchants. Don't go after the big stuff until you're experienced.

An enemy that's not trying to kill you is a good enemy to have. Weapons enchanted to demoralize your opponents can give you some space to catch your breath or drink a healing potion.

If possible, always take a single item at a time. It increases the risk, but it's excellent practice.

Don't be afraid to invest in armor. Even if you carefully avoid close combat like a smart spellcaster, things go wrong, and armor can save your skin when the unexpected happens.

A weapon enchanted to absorb your enemy's fatigue will keep you swinging while your opponent tires out faster.

Always study your target, and take a good inventory of what he has before attempting to steal anything. If he has his eye on that shiny silver claymore, he won't notice you pocketing a few tarnished throwing stars.

Use the spellmaker. It's cheap, and a custom-designed spell tailored to your skills, magicka reservoirs, and spellcasting style will always outperform the standard spells you buy from service casters.

With a strong enough soul you can craft enchantments that have a constant effect. Creatures with souls of that power are hard to find, though, unless you're willing to risk delving into a Daedric ruin.

You will get slaughtered if you start acting like a warrior. Always sneak up to your target and take advantage of your stealth. Even a dagger is effective if used in the right way at the right time.

Nobody is going to coddle you in the Fighters Guild. In the Imperial cult, they give you stuff that old ladies could do in their sleep. But here, you get in line for work, and if something comes to you that is out of your depth, you're supposed to be smart enough to back off and come at it again later when you have the equipment and chops.

In a fight, mobility is king. Enchantments that burden an opponent, or damage their strength, can slow them down enough for you to run rings around them -- or run away, if they're too tough for you to handle.

Keep a good sense of your surroundings, no matter how good you are at sneaking, you're always better off if no one is around.

When you think you are just about to encounter some heavy opposition, get those shield-style spells up. The life they save may be your own.

Look. If you're the bloody-minded type, tries to complete every task a boss gives you, you're in for a world of hurt. Happens all the time. You breeze through a couple of jobs, then you hit one you can't budge. I can't tell you what to do, but me, I go find something else to do for a while. Sure, nobody likes to admit you can't do a job. You brood over it, lie awake nights figuring how your gonna crack that nut. But patience and good sense is as important as blood and courage in this business.

Let me warn you. The quests for the Temple at lower ranks are not too difficult. But suddenly after you reach Curate rank, the quests get very, very difficult. Don't be surprised if you have to do a lot of skill-building outside the Temple before you can handle the higher rank quests. These tasks are tests of faith, yes, but they are also tests of good judgement and common sense.

Nobody is going to hold your hand in the Legion. In the Imperial cult, they just test your faith and your shoe leather. But here, if your superior gives you orders, and you find you're out of your depth, you're supposed to be smart enough to be patient, get some training, experience, and new equipment, and try it again later when you're better prepared.

Just because your superior gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your superior doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And some superiors don't care.

If you accept a task from a superior, you are honor-bound to complete it. But unless there is a deadline, or an issue of honor, you are NOT supposed to die trying. Use common sense. If you find you are not yet ready to face a challenge, be patient, train, outfit yourself, and revisit the task at a later date.

Just because your lord gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your lord doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And most Telvanni lords don't care.

In principle, a member is not to be given tasks that exceed the member's rank or abilities. In practice, sometimes mistakes are made. You are not expected to fail and die for those mistakes. Use judgement. Be patient. Take the initiative. Train yourself. Equip yourself. Study your target and situation more carefully. Then return to your task when you are ready, and succeed.

If you accept a task from a superior, you must complete it. But unless there is a deadline you are NOT supposed to die trying. Use common sense. If you find you are not yet ready to face a challenge, then train, outfit yourself, and revisit the task at a later date.

Just because your master gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your master doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And some just don't care.

If you accept a task from a superior, you must complete it. But unless there is a deadline you are NOT supposed to die trying. Use common sense. If you find you are not yet ready to face a challenge, then train, outfit yourself, and revisit the task at a later date.

Your duties as a member of the Temple become more challenging as you climb in the ranks. Don't be surprised if you have to undertake additional studying before you take on the responsibilities of the higher priesthood. Pilgrimages in particular often double as tests of one's learning, good judgment, and aptitude.

Lower-ranked members of the Imperial Cult aren't usually given delicate or difficult work, but if you have caught the right eyes and advanced high enough, you might be assigned duties by the Oracles themselves. You will need to be ready and prepared then, to face tests of character... and of other qualities.

While the extra hurt that a sparkblade or flameblade can dish out is appealing, don't overlook the jinkblade. An enemy on fire can still kill you. A paralyzed enemy can't.

The elite of Morrowind may not have all the armor and equipment you need as an adventurer. But don't overlook precious stones or fine jewelry and clothing; to the right merchant those items can be worth more and be more easy to carry than some heavy iron armor.

Invest in potions to restore your magicka. In hostile territory, these potions can save you a lot of downtime. Even supposing you can find some safe place to get some rest and regain your magicka, who needs the aggravation?

A skilled enchanter doesn't need to be able to cast magic. Put the spells you need on a few fancy trinkets and you can carry a mage's arsenal around in your pockets.

You can't be a successful thief if you always steal from the same merchant, or even stay in the same town. After you've picked them clean, explore somewhere else to give them a chance to restock.

Best bargain for a risk-taker is a jug of sujamma. Makes you strong as an ogrim -- not for long, but long enough.

How do you know when you've got a quest too tough for you? If it sounds too tough for you, it probably is. You must use your own judgement. Guild stewards don't really get to know your abilities. All they know is that a guy never comes back. They don't know if he got lost, lost interest or got eaten.

How do you judge a job, decide if it's too tough for you? Good question. Me, I check three things: location, opposition, and payoff. First, if it's a long walk, I worry. If it's a Daedric ruin, or a Dunmer stronghold, I worry. Second, if the opposition is tough, I worry. Daedra worry me. Vampires worry me. Telvanni wizards worry me. Third, if the reward is fat, I worry. Nobody pays you a crate of gold for a walk in the park.

While The Boss discourages recreational use of the product, a little bump of skooma can make a big difference in a tough fight. You'll move faster and hit harder, and you won't miss the lost intelligence if you didn't have any in the first place.

Merchants know their own inventories far better than you do. Never attempt to trick them into buying something you stole from them.

Learn the Mark, Recall, Levitation, and Open spells. Mark and Recall are essential for any long-distance travel. There are plenty of places you can't get to without Levitation. And treasure does you no good if it's behind a locked door or in a locked chest.

Just because work needs to be done doesn't mean that you're going to be able to do it. If you're finding the work too difficult, stack up your advantages and try again. Enchanted weapons, armor, and a potion or two can make all the difference between a payday and a grave.

Noble families often aren't around to watch their manors so they lock everything up. This makes them a wonderful opportunity to practice your skill at picking locks in the privacy of someone else's house. And of course, don't neglect to check the contents of that chest after you pick it.

If all it takes is a little persuasion, a flask of Telvanni bug musk is what you need. Makes even an Orc charming.

Stand-up fights are for dead men. Use heavy weapons or your fists to get your opponent on the ground and keep them there. They can't hurt you while they're fighting to get back on their feet.

Don't risk a frontal confrontation with anything. When in doubt, sneak.

Join the Mages Guild. Rise ranks to get good rates for services. And stay in their good graces by minding their rules and performing the required duties.

A good strategy is to paralyze your opponent, cast some kind of touch spell that does damage for awhile, like poison, then retreat to a farther range to cast your targeted, long range spells. Recast paralyze if the creature isn't dead by the time they reach you again.

If you've got a price on your head, talk to the Boss if you're allowed to meet him. You'd better watch out, though: the Boss won't do a thing about your bounty unless it's high enough to cause the Syndicate problems.

Alchemists are easy targets for inexperienced thieves. They have far too many ingredients for them to keep an eye on all of them all of the time.

Yes, buying and selling Dwarven artifacts without an Imperial charter is illegal. But I've never heard of anyone pinched for it.

The two most important things for any long journey: sturdy boots, and a sharp knife.

Do not trust those who speak to you in the language of morality, %PCName. All conversation is negotiation. Ideally, both sides would acknowledge self-interest upfront, but often one hides it and simply insists the other must give him what he wants because it is "moral," or "right and just." My kind do not believe in morality, but yours embrace it. Thus, your society's winners are not the best, or the brightest, but the most charismatic -- those best able to craft convincing appeals to morality. Unfortunate.

The only advice I will give you is this: Respect the ancestors and don't disturb them in the deeper sections of the tomb.

Don't venture too deep into the mines. If you're unlucky, the acidic pools will melt the skin right off your legs.

You may want to carry a few potions or scrolls of levitation with you when you're traveling on top of the mesas in Shipal-Shin. You wouldn't be the first adventurer we found dead at the bottom of a cliff.

You will find smiths in almost every large Shinathi camp. They may not have a lot of goods to sell, but they will be able to repair your equipment for you. We have a lot of experience with repairing and maintaining the arms and armor of the settled people.

It's not always bad if the person you're dealing with thinks you are a stupid desert savage. Many n'thil come to us thinking that they will have an easy time tricking us into doing their bidding or swindling us out of our property. Some return to their city with bags full of worthless trinkets. Some return empty-handed. And the especially devious ones might not return at all.

Be careful when you approach tents out in the canyons. Some are clanless bandits who will attack on sight. And even those that aren't might not take kindly to an n'thil snooping around their hunting or raiding camp.

You won't find a lot of rich traders in a Shinathi camp, so be prepared to barter goods for goods. If you want gold coins for your adventuring spoils, you're better off carrying them to a city.

Very few traders out here in the canyons will care about what the Empire does or doesn't want you to barter. But with the exception of clanless outcasts, even we Shinathi draw the line at moon sugar, skooma, and greydust. Those s'mat substances weaken our clan and are rightly banned by the Temple.

I have no more advice for you, unfortunately. You should have taken my initial advice more seriously.

Somebody as wise as yourself surely needs no advice from me.

Do not underestimate your task with Mistress Eldale. More puzzling riddles may come.

If you are here to speak with Mistress Eldale you should know she usually does not accept strangers. She is, after all, a quite solitary and eccentric Telvanni mage lord. You may enter her chambers right now and address her, but should you do so, you may not return unscathed. To earn her respect, it would please her if you answered some of her puzzling riddles and so doing proved your intellect to her.

I save my advice only for my closest associates, and though I respect you, in House Telvanni only those you have known for a great deal of time may one include in that number.

I would love to share my wisdom with you, but I am simply afraid you would not be able to comprehend it.

My wisdom is too complex to be communicated in petty 'advices'.

There is little competition between local merchants, as they are organized under Belas Kasihan's competition laws. The free market is allowed here only because of outlanders, but they have to pay horrible fees to be allowed to sell their wares, so there's no rivalry between them and the locals. Despite this, I personally like to shop here in the market, the prices are more reasonable here.

This is a Telvanni wizard settlement. Your position here is simply derived from your skills, knowledge, experience and magical abilities. The more potent you are in these aspects, the more respect will Telvanni pay you, no matter of idle personal sympathies. There is no bias here.

If you want to have good reputation in Telvanni lands, you must not be afraid to spend your money. Telvanni are usually very hard to persuade so you need to have great amounts of gold saved for bribes. You can increase your chances by using charm spells, Telvanni bug mask, or fine clothes and jewelry.

To get on with Telvanni it is often essential that you show appropriate respect when speaking with them. Don't let their sarcastic comments or sudden changes in moods confuse you, and always stay calm. If you want to argue, use your wit. Good clothes, fine jewelry and delicate manners are also a big advantage.

You can get only basic items on this isolated island. If you need something more sophisticated, you should travel to Port Telvannis.

This is Mistress Eldale's island and it is advisable to be on good terms with her, if you want to prosper here.

If you want to trade here in Port Telvannis, you will need to get a set of Hospitality papers. They can be bought here in the Avenue.

There are very ferocious and dangerous Mehrunes Dagon worshippers in the Yashazmus ruins, west of Port Telvannis. If you need to travel to the western parts of the island, to Sadas Plantation for example, use waterstrider services. Central parts of Vahn should be avoided.

Be wary when you're walking around the Telvanni Isles, particularly this one, Vahn Isle. There are Daedric worshippers in Yashazmus shrine not far from here, not to mention all the other various outlaws around the place. Outside the city, it's quite wild.

If you're looking for an obedient slave, you should get down to the market. Some Dres merchant has just brought in some new stock from Tear, and as everybody knows, the Dres know exactly how to break in a slave.

If you need to gut open a mole crab, put on a full helmet. Even when you think they're dead and safe to process, they can still have a last-minute spasm, just enough to attack you.

If you have to travel into Morrowind's interior, keep to the roads. Though not all roads are safe, the wilderness will always be worse. The bigger the road, the better, and it just so happens that Almas Thirr sits on the biggest road. It goes all the way to the east coast and, even better, all the way west to Cyrodiil.

Ah, you've come to the right place. I try to improve understanding between natives and foreigners whenever I can, though I'm afraid I don't offer a simple way to make people like you more. There're obvious things like respecting the locals and their customs, of course, but that's the bare minimum. If you want true respect, you'll have to work for it. Joining the Temple will go a long way in Almas Thirr, but make sure to behave accordingly. Someone will always be watching for you to slip up.

Respect the Temple's doctrine and the authority of its priests and Ordinators. We tolerate no heresy.

Respect the Temple's doctrine and the authority of its priests and Ordinators. We tolerate no heresy.

Respect the Temple's doctrine and the authority of its priests and Ordinators. We tolerate no heresy.

Respect the Temple's doctrine and the authority of its priests and Ordinators. The Order of the Watch patrols Almas Thirr. No heresy escapes their notice.

Ordinators don't take kindly to transgressors of the laws and our Temple doctrines. Not here, in a Temple stronghold. They're not as forgiving as House guards, either, so don't get any funny ideas.

I tend to avoid Talvenyl Lerano's shop in the Canalworks. The man just gives me the creeps. But you can't deny that his enchantments can stack up against the best.

For an outlander, the fletcher Gaelwaen in the Canalworks is a decent craftsman. His arrows and bolts always hit the mark.

If you want to rent a room for the night, you can either try the Limping Scrib outside of the canton, the Thirsty Saint Cornerclub in the lower level of the Waistworks, or, if you're really strapped for coin, the Hostel of the Crossing. I've seen some... unsavory... characters visiting the Limping Scrib, though.

Are you looking to get some martial training? Falura Andavel is a retired Indoril officer with nothing productive to do. Maybe pay her a visit. Usually, you'll find her drinking at the Pious Pirate.

The Waistworks Temple is one of the largest temples in Morrowind, and it's well stocked with services. They won't give you anything for free, of course. However, if you have the money, they should fulfill most of your magical needs.

If you're looking to make some quick coin, you should look for work at one of the Imperial guilds at the bridge market. However, personally, I wouldn't trust either the avaricious Khajiit or the Bosmer who runs the Mages Guild. I've heard rumors of his obssessions -- he doesn't seem to be right in the head, as I see it.

Times are hard, outlander. Many don't admit it, but the Temple's priests don't have as much time to spare for the poor and sick, not like in the old days. We can't just wait for them to make our problems go away anymore.

Word to the wise: try not to rile up the natives. They're a bit testy in these parts. Mind yourself if you end up visiting one of their shrines or temples.

BEGIN TR MAP3 NANAAV ADVICE

Only House Indoril members may purchase the finest goods in Nanaav. Layfolk who are in need of stronger weapons, potions or enchantments should look in Almalexia, or in the Grass Market of Othrenis.

The Nanaav Reliquary displays artifacts sacred to House Indoril. It is well worth a visit for the curious pilgrim, and Falso Beroth is always looking to expand the chapel's collection.

END TR MAP3 NANAAV ADVICE

BEGIN TR MAP3 SELYN ADVICE

Scribs aren't too aggressive, but you should still carry a potion to resist their paralyzing bite. You can make one from orange lichen and Timsa-Come-By flowers, which are both common around here. The same effect can be found in Horn Lily bulbs and Alchemist's Globe mushrooms.

END TR MAP3 SELYN ADVICE

BEGIN ROA DYR

House Indoril has always taken care of its land, and the territory around here is some of the safest in Morrowind. But times are hard. The Indoril no longer have the manpower to cleanse the deeper dungeons. Besides that, there's also been an uptick in banditry. You should be fine if you stick to the main roads, but always have a backup plan.

Stay away from Daedric ruins. The only one close to Roa Dyr is Hadrumnibibi, northwest of here, but you'll see more if you travel northeast into the Orethan Fields or the Sundered Scar. Law-abiding citizens have no business visiting them, and they attract criminals and deviants of the worst kind.

Those of us who run the services around here won't gouge you as much as the other Houses or the Velothi villages. We're all here to keep the chapel running, and gold barely enters the equation. But that also means we don't have as much money on hand. If you're looking to sell something in Roa Dyr, be prepared to trade items for items.

END ROA DYR

BEGIN GORNE

While other folk may freely talk about their problems, members of House Indoril tend to be distrusting of outsiders. If they warm to you, however, they're as likely to need help as anyone else -- and ask for it.

If you have time and a little spare coin, training your weaker skills can be a good way to improve yourself.

House Indoril deals little in Imperial coin. If you're looking to sell, look elsewhere.

END GORNE

BEGIN TR MAP3 FELMS ITHUL ADVICE

The wilderness around here isn't very dangerous. If you go offroad, the worst you'll run into is an angry yeth-grub. But if you travel northeast into the Sundered Scar, things get lethal. And desolate. Fast. So stock up on supplies now if that's where you're headed.

If you catch a disease while out in the wilderness, the best thing for it is a premade potion. But if you didn't bring one, you might still be able to cure yourself if you have a mortar and pestle. Just mix the orange moss you find off the side of the road with some velk nectar -- properly sourced, mind you.

You're an Indoril, so you probably already know this, but be careful around the velk. Just because they aren't aggressive doesn't mean they're harmless. If you startle or anger one, a headbutt from them can hurt.

Sometimes, outsiders who pass through here get ideas about the velk. Just don't. Their unrefined nectar is worthless, so poaching velk is high risk and low reward without someone to process it. And anyone who CAN process it knows better than to do so for strangers.

BEGIN TR MAP3 DONDRIL ADVICE

Best to steer clear of the velk, %PCClass. Or anything related to the velk, for that matter. The Indoril don't like it, and their retainers don't like it either.

Looking for a route to Almalexia, outlander? You'd best avoid taking the road east of here into the Sundered Scar. Almsivi knows the perils that befall travelers there.

St. Meris the Peacemaker is the patron saint of farmers and laborers. It is to her you should pray for relief from the pangs of hunger. You can find a small shrine to her at our Farmers and Caravaners Hall.

The Monastery of Saint Seryn acts as a refuge for the sick and injured. If you are in need of healing, then look for a Velothi tower at the foot of Mount Aras to the northeast.

Even a relatively safe region like the Aanthirin has its share of dangers. That's why you should stock up on supplies whenever you get the chance. Only a fool travels unprepared.

END TR MAP3 SAILEN ADVICE

Asking too many questions gets on my nerves. There's my advice.

Buy my wares and I'll be nice.

Don't let arbitrary social norms keep you from doing what you're good at doing. If it pays, who are they to judge your line of work as immoral or scandalous?

Reliance on healing potions can be heavy on the purse in the long run. By investing in restoration skills now, you can prevent expensive trips into town in the future.

Most curses require that certain chants be uttered by their wielders. By binding their tongues with silencing spells you can prevent yourself from being afflicted by them. To prevent them from doing further harm in the future, you might as well just cut their tongues out.

Find out what you love and make a living out of doing it. I happen to love extracting poisonous toxins from fangs and imbuing the venom in weapons of iron and steel, knowing they will bring about the shriveling and decaying of the flesh once they penetrate their foes.

Ruling with an iron fist brings about resentment, while ruling with a silk glove encourages abuse. Clearly, a balance between justice and charity is the superior way. The law teaches the people respect and charity rewards their obedience. As nobles of the Indoril, this is the ideal to which we must aspire.

The law must be enforced, no matter what the circumstances are. Leniency in law inevitably leads to abuse. The people need law and order to live safe and happy lives, and they need to know that the law is unchanging and unforgiving, for only then can they trust that the law is just and fair.

Family, work, and the Tribunal are all you need for a fulfilling life. Bring honor to your family, grow stronger through work, and show gratitude for those that have made your life possible.

Try not to meddle in our ways, outlander. We may tolerate your visit here, but tolerance is no substitute for respect.

If you plan on traveling beyond Sailen, you had better stock up on supplies while you still can.

Orethan is safe, with Ordinators patrolling the roads. As long as you do not stray into ancestral tombs or ruins, you will find no danger.

END TR MAP 3 TILMETH ADVICE

BEGIN OLD EBONHEART ADVICE

If you're having trouble with your enchanting, try drinking a potion or casting a spell that fortifies your Intelligence.

The high-and-mighty folk flood the western end of town and the Ebon Tower. You might want to watch what you say when you're in those areas: the walls may be lined with gold, but also with eyes and ears. It's not uncommon to hear a pauper disrespect an aristocrat one minute, and then see him being dragged away by the guards the next.

Immigrants from Cyrodiil in search of a new beginning often do business with the East Empire Company. Their offices in the plaza district sell deeds to valuable farmland and even gold mines, if you're interested in manual labor.

Do yourself a favor and get a decent weapon before trudging off into the wilds outside the gates. I've heard all sorts of horror stories from travelers making their way between the cities.

Go see Yuaile if you want quality enchantments without having to deal with the Mages Guild. I don't dislike the guild itself, but after their safeguards failed to stop the Castle vault break-in, I'd sooner trust a Telvanni to enchant my belongings.

The Morag Tong does not play favorites. Family ties may join us to any of the Houses, but we serve the Tong first and foremost, and we are bound to fulfill our writs.

Beware of Fort Windmoth, friend. Its soldiers are corrupt and its walls dangerous. I have heard that few ever make it out of the fort's prison.

If you ever visit Alt Bosara, be sure not to fall into the waterfall.

Never underestimate summoned daedra. They are cunning, and their loyalty is fickle. Never let your authority slip even once.

Trama root mixed with racer feather can make an extremely weak levitation potion. I figured out the "extremely weak" part the hard way.

Always be careful on a mission, %PCName. Think things through before just charging in there with your blade swinging. What kind of resistance are you going to expect? What kind of equipment are you going to need? Armor, weapons, even scrolls and potions? Never underestimate your foe. Of course, if it's simple bandit clean-up, you don't need to go overboard, but it never hurts to think.

I save my words for guild members, %PCClass.

Watch your back at all times in House Telvanni, %PCName. You never know what sort of power-grubbing meddler is waiting to stick a dagger in your back. That's why I moved away from the cities. I can handle the trouble, but I don't like the atmosphere of mistrust.

Follow the Three, and you can't go far wrong. More Telvanni should learn this.

Outsiders are not allowed to touch the glass deposits in Kundashamshi Mine. They are a limited resource and belong to Varon and House Indoril.

If you're traveling west to the Sundered Scar you should stop at the Supai Caravanserai. It's the best place in the whole area to pick up vital supplies.

When a superior gives you a task, it is your duty to complete it. But that doesn't always mean you need to complete it right away. If you aren't given a deadline, and you believe the task is beyond your skills, take the time to improve yourself before attempting it.

BEGIN TR MAP 2 NECROM ADVICE

Outlanders might expect the immediate area around Necrom to be infested with bandits, given the number of travelers that journey here, but the Temple takes attacks on pilgrims very seriously. You will need to be more careful in the Mephalan Vales, where bandits are a lot harder to track and have hideouts littered throughout the mountains.

Be careful about what you say and do in the city above Necrom, outlander. This city is a holy place for all Dunmer, and the Ordinators in Mourning will not take kindly to any perceived insults to our ancestors.

You should be careful about what you say and do in the city above Necrom, outlander. This city is a holy place for all Dunmer, and the ordinators will not take kindly to any perceived insults to their ancestors.

The Sacred Lands are studded with ancestral tombs, but only the foolish would attempt to intrude in them. Tombs are almost always protected from graverobbers by bonewalkers, if the family could afford them, and sometimes the dead themselves have even risen to protect their family and ancestors' resting place.

Necrom is a huge complex of tombs where generations of the dead have been brought and laid to rest. If you take the sacred oath, you will be allowed in to the catacombs, but unless you know what you're doing, I wouldn't recommend it. There's a labyrinth of corridors and tombs down there, and the dead are often joined by unfortunate visitors failing to find their way out.

BEGIN TR MAP2: AMMAR AND SURROUNDINGS ADVICE

There are many old ruins in this area, %PCName, but some of them are still inhabited. Watch your step around those.

What advice could I have to offer an adventurer such as yourself?

Your legs can't carry you after a hard day's work? Try mixing ornada meat with good quality meadow rye, and you'll start running again like a young guar!

If you wish to get anywhere in Morrowind, try and join one of the Great Houses. It makes things a lot easier. For an outlander like yourself, the easiest to get initiated into would be House Hlaalu, or House Telvanni. But they lack honor compared to Indoril and Redoran.

To enter an Ancestral Tomb without the permission of the family or Temple is blasphemous. Many outlanders more foolish than yourself forget this, and pay the price when they meet the tomb's guardians.

To enter an Ancestral Tomb without the permission of the family or Temple is blasphemous. It would do you well to remember this, outlander.

Here's a neat trick: if you mix the crushed shell of a blue beetle with the meat from a nix-hound, you'll actually be able to reflect weak spells back at an attacker! Amazing how two unassuming ingredients can have such an impressive effect. Such is the way of alchemy.

When you're traveling around a lot, you learn a few things. If you're venturing far from civilization, always keep some food and drink on you, and make sure you bring more than you think you'll need.

Always keep a good weapon on hand. Two, if you can. We've lost good men who didn't have a spare weapon when heading into combat.

BEGIN TR MAP 2: AKAMORA AND SURROUNDINGS LITTLE ADVICE

Don't cause any trouble here in Akamora, %PCName. We won't tolerate any meddling by you Telvanni.

I wouldn't travel any further north if I were you. The lands of the Telvanni are treacherous and uncivilized.

Unless you're an experienced adventurer, stay clear of the nearby ruins of Dun Akafell. That place is overrun with outlaws, undead, and gods know what else.

Rilas Dralethan has the greatest collection of gems in all of Akamora.

END TR MAP 2: AKAMORA AND SURROUNDINGS LITTLE ADVICE

BEGIN TR MAP 2 ERETHAN PLANTATION AND HLERSIS ADVICE

I have no advice for you, serjo.

To the north lie Telvanni lands. Be careful with those wizards.

Be watchful in the Mephalan Vales, %PCClass. It's hard to know what sort of opposition you might come up against.

Advice? If you want to go far in House Indoril, mine foreman is not the way to go.

Watch out for the bloat. That stuff can have strange effects on your mind.

Don't spend too long in the mines. The spores down there'll do your head in. We've already lost a few slaves that way.

END TR MAP 2 ERETHAN PLANTATION AND HLERSIS ADVICE

BEGIN TR MAP 3 BOSMORA ADVICE

I'd suggest you buy some weapons while you're in town, %PCName. You wouldn't believe how many stupid adventurers get themselves killed around here because they don't properly prepare. Just because we're close to Almalexia doesn't mean the wilderness around here is easy pickings.

If you want to relax after traveling, or just need a place to stay, check out the Starlight Inn. The regulars there tend to be a bit unkempt and rude, but Tharyon is always nice to guests.

Balamus Arthre, though often cheerful and kind, gives many of the locals a bad feeling. If I were you, I'd be wary around him.

BEGIN TR MAP2 ALT BOSARA, ANDAR MOK ADVICE

Don't listen to Hlavora. You wouldn't listen to a thug would you? So why would you listen to her?

If you need to travel by sea, travel by ship. I've heard countless stories of horrible accidents regarding waterstriders, and I myself wouldn't want to take any such risk. Besides, ships are universally used and are far more efficient and reliable than magically mutated insects. Of course, the choice is yours.

When you're the boss you need to show it. A boss only has power when he's respected and respect can be earned through either kindness or fear. I prefer using the latter.

Once you have a death warrant on your head you might as well make the most of it. You can basically do whatever criminal activities you want to do, because a death warrant is the highest form of punishment you can legally get.

Make yourself valuable. The simple fact is that if you're not needed, you start losing stuff. In the case of smugglers, it is mostly their life they end up losing.

Smugglers need to band together if they want to survive the competition. You just can't make a profit as an independent smuggler these days.

Keep yourself professional; there's nothing worse than a skooma dealer addicted to his own wares.

Live your life as you please, but always remember to honor your gods.

Be happy with that which you already have. Because that just makes life a lot easier for you.

The less you work, the longer you'll live. I wonder if one could reach immortality by following this rule?

I hate people that ask for advice.

[Hlera attempts to be funny.] You must be pretty messed up asking ME for advice huh... am I right? That was funny, right? Oh, never mind. I'll just be quiet from now on.

Everything has the potential to be exciting. All it takes is a little 'creative' effort from your part. ISN'T THAT EXCITING?!

Hey all I can say is: 'In the council it's your vote that counts; in Alt Bosara, it's your count that votes!' Get it?! By 'count' I mean Master Vaerin... Oh come on! You know it's funny.

The truth will set you free, outlander.

Please just do something, anything to make yourself more interesting. You're practically making me fall asleep here.

Sorry, I'm too good for that.

Please just forget anything I've said to you when in one of my moods. The moods are so powerful that they simply take control over me. They make me say the strangest and most embarrassing things, so just keep in mind that it's the mood that's talking, not me.

%PCRank. What advice do you need?

I have no advice for one such as yourself.

Do not bother people like me.

Unless you're looking for a laugh, don't visit Hlera Velo.

I have no advice to give to you at the moment.

If you're a member of the Temple, then this is not the place to be.

Choose the right friends and marry the right person. Then just be patient, and the good things will eventually come to you.

Pick a skill in life and get really good at it. Then look for a way to apply that skill. I chose swimming, and now I'm the best scavenger here in Andar Mok.

Buy whatever you need from me. I'm the only trader in this area and you might as well stock up on goods here, if you plan on exploring the local area.

Advice? Well, I wouldn't recommend you spend much time here. I know I'm leaving as soon as I can.

Show some appreciation to the guards. If they weren't around I wouldn't even dare to live here.

Ignore the Veniths, they're selfish, ignorant and untrustworthy.

Stay away from Felos Melethi's Lighthouse. Don't ask me why, just stay away.

Watch out for the smuggler's cave Surimintu. It's right across from here and it's a dangerous place. The only reason I feel safe around here is because of the guards.

It's not really safe to openly support the Temple in these areas, so watch out.

Don't talk to people that don't like you. You'll just end up hurting yourself.

Leave this town, you're not welcome here.

There's a nice little cave north of here called Surimintu. Go check it out, you'll have the time of your life.

Go to Felos Melethi's Lighthouse, don't ask me why, just go.

Everything you've ever heard about slaughterfish isn't true. They're actually very friendly when you get to know them better. Just make sure not to take any weapons or armor with you, because they get scared easily.

Everyone knows it is completely safe to walk around in the wilderness naked. Try it out, if you don't believe me.

END TR MAP2 ALT BOSARA, ANDAR MOK ADVICE

You want my advice, outlander? Stay clear of the Camonna Tong. We don't like outlanders.

No one will ever grow rich hunting. But it is a pure pleasure for itself. Take your time. Sneak up on your prey. Surprise it with a swift, silent arrow. There is no greater pleasure than to drop a cliff racer with a single arrow.

Go around trouble. Leave it behind you. Then return, later, when you can give trouble a big surprise.

Carry good nourishing food. When you stumble wearily into trouble, eat and refresh yourself, so you will fight well.

Self-defence is the best offence. If you've gotta put somebody in the ground, try taunting them into attacking you first. If they start the fight, it's not a crime for you to you finish it.

Higher quality picks and probes are definitely worth their higher price. But keep cheaper ones around as well for the easier locks and traps. Also be sure to find a good source for buying these instruments.

There's an enchanted transportation system in the old Dunmer strongholds. Created ages ago, but still works. You need a thing called an 'index' to use the system. Not many of them around. Collectors will pay a pretty drake for them.

The Boss likes to see his troops equipped in light armor for a reason: you can load up with more potions. The right ones can make the difference between killing and dying.

If you have the patience, sneak around everywhere you go. It will take longer, and may arouse suspicion, but it's excellent practice.

Use illusion spells like invisibility to scout an area before you go on the offensive. Often a cunning spellcaster can simply avoid opponents and obstacles, move right to the objective, and leave without taking a scratch.

I've never seen a successful adventurer who didn't carry a couple of Almsivi Intervention scrolls with him on long expeditions. Two reasons. Emergency exit. And it lets you move a LOT more loot than you can carry on foot. And faster goes without saying.
