The name of the wolf that killed Hrothmund is "Ondjage." You'll need to say his name to enter Hrothmund's Barrow. Say any other name and you'll NEVER be able to get in!

I heard this guy talking...he said there's some kind of thieves' stash hidden in one of the ice caves, but it's guarded by a few Grahl...

They say wolf dung has powerful healing properties. Hey, that's what I heard!

If you're looking for some moon sugar, Uncle Sweetshare is the man you want to see.

There's a body at the bottom of Lake Fjalding! I saw it once, through a hole in the ice.

They say there's pirate treasure buried somewhere on the island. Been here for a hundred years, and nobody's ever found it.

Smuggling raw glass is a crime. All raw glass belongs to the Emperor, so it's the crime of treason, and punished by death. But... there's so much money to be made selling black market raw glass that it's a rare merchant who'll refuse to buy a piece from you. Of course, if the mine guards catch you stealing raw glass, they just kill you. Which is why we don't steal raw glass.

There must be more diamond deposits on Vvardenfell. This kind of rock is common here. But even though people have been here for thousands of years, the island has never been fully explored.

This is a dangerous place, so none of the House people will come here. So we have kept the secret of the ebony all to ourselves. Now you know our secret. you are brave to come so far, outlander, so we will let you live, but do not touch the ebony.

I like your style, n'wah. Here's a tip. Propylon. Ever been in a Dunmer stronghold? Have you seen the propylon chambers, with the two big stone pillars? They're transportation devices. Except you need a key to use them -- a tiny little thing called a 'propylon index'. A guy tried to sell me one -- wanted a fortune for it, so I told him to blow. Later I hear this guy went to a Daedric shrine called Maelkashishi, and forgot to come back. So maybe the propylon index went there with him. And stayed.

Do the old places of the Deep Elves interest you? Then you should go see Nchuleftingth. The walls still glow with strange lights, and terrible things walk and squeal in the passages. it is a bad place, and very dangerous, but it is filled with wonders.

All outlanders are looking for the old Deep Elf places. Have you heard of Nchardumz? Maybe not. Maybe you will be surprised when you see it.

Southeast of Erabenimsun camp is an old stone place called Tusenend. That is where we send outlanders when we are tired of listening to them.

Southeast of Zainab camp is an old cave they call Pulk. Everyone says there are bandits hiding there. But I do not know if it is true. I have not seen for myself.

Do the old places of the Deep Elves interest you? then you must look upon Nchuleft. That place is very old, and you can still go down inside. The walls still glow with strange lights, and terrible things walk and squeal in the passages.

Everyone knows the people who worship Mehrunes Dagon have returned to Indoranyon. It is none of our business, and they are very unpleasant if disturbed. They stay in the dark, and do not bother us or our herds.

South and west of Kushtashpi, the old Daedric place west of Ahemmusa camp, is the entrance to an old cavern called Sanit. That is where they found two hunter dead, their flesh white and bloated by the corprus. That is not a place where a wise man would go.

Are you interested in seeing the old places of the Daedra worshippers? Look upon Esutanamus. It sits upon an island east of the mainland beaches, southeast of the Telvanni town of Tel Mora. Sometimes a champion will enter there in search of ancient weapons and treasures.

The old stones at Zergonipal... beneath those stones are dark chambers and a great statue. None of our people have been there in many years.

Kushtashpi, that is the name of old Daedric stones west of Ahemmusa camp. No one goes there. It is a deep and dark place.

Vampires have returned to Vvardenfell. In the ruins of the Deep Elves at Druscashti. They are foul, and must be destroyed... but these are difficult times, and who can risk his life or his tribe by drawing the attention of such creatures?

At the ruins of Assurnabitashpi, they have an old shrine to Mehrunes Dagon. Stay far from that place -- it is cursed.

The ancient Dunmer stronghold at Valenvaryon... we have seen orcs there. Orcs worship Malacath. It is a bad place.

An associate was on an expedition to Azura's Coast -- he just walks the beaches and islands, looking for opportunities -- and the oddest thing -- he came back with tons of cash. Said he'd bumped into a real big spender... seemed sort of frazzled by the whole thing. He was pretty tight-lipped about the guy -- only said that he was a bit eccentric and seemed to have a serious alcohol problem.

Gods be with you, %PCName. And thanks for the mazte.

They say they buried Olmgerd in the bottom of an ancient Dunmer tomb. From the skald's telling, the burial was on a long finger of land on the southeast coast of Vvardenfell, on a little island close to shore on the west coast of the peninsula. Figure it's somewhere on the stretch between the Daedric ruins at Zaintiraris and Tel Branora. Gods be with you. And thanks for the mazte.

And of course they buried Stormkiss with him. Stormkiss was Olmgerd's enchanted battle-axe. And you see this old key? See what it says on it? 'Stormkiss.' Here. Take it. Healer says the mazte is killing me. I'm going home to Skyrim to die. You, you got your life ahead of you. Go ahead. Take it.

Thanks for the mazte. Such generosity should be repaid. You know the Nord once ruled this land, don't you? Back when these Dark Elves were squatting around campfires in nix skins? Back in the First Age when the sons of Harald Hand-Free ruled the northern coasts of Tamriel, during the Skyrim Conquests? Well, I bet you didn't know Olmgerd the Outlaw, Harald's bastard, was buried as befits a Nord lord's son, in his ship, in a tomb deep in the mother rock.

You do that.

Oh, well.

Can you spare a jug of mazte for an tired old sea reaver?

I delivered a message to his assassins, Ranes and Navil Ienith. The message was a plot to kill his brother, Duke Vedam Dren. This message is in the basement of Dren's Villa, behind two locked and trapped doors, in a small chest on a bookshelf. If you ever need to influence Orvan Dren, this book would be ideal.

Got any moon sugar for your pal Ra'Gruzgob?

No moon sugar, no secrets.

We miners don't grow the eggs. We just harvest them. The queen lays the eggs, the workers plant them, tend them, and nourish them, and we harvest them. Doesn't hurt the colony. They grow far more than they need.

Kwama foragers and warriors won't attack us, since they're used to our smell. But they attack intruders. And you smell like an intruder. But don't worry. The queen squirts out foragers and warriors like seeds. If the foragers and warriors bother you, kill them, or run past, whichever is easier. But do us a favor, and don't kill the workers. They won't bother you, and we need them to keep the queen laying and the eggs ripening.

When the blight gets a mine, you have to kill or cure them. It doesn't pay to cure the foragers, workers, or warriors -- a healthy queen can produce them fast enough. But you HAVE to cure the queen, or the mine is doomed. To cure the queen, you need to cast a cure blight spell or have scroll of Daerir's Blessing.

Want to cure a blighted queen, but don't have the cure blight spell? Then you need to buy some Scroll of Daerir's Blessing scrolls. NOT Daerir's Miracle -- they cure YOU. Daerir's Blessing scrolls cure the target. Try Crulius Pontanian at Fort Moonmoth, or Miraso Seran at Telvanni Council Hall, or Ureso Drath at the Ald'ruhn Temple.

You thinking about looking around for Dwemer sites? Well, it's your funeral. There's a well-known one called Mzahnch, on an island a ways east of Vivec. You don't look ready for that kind of excitement, but, heck, you don't try, you'll never learn, right?

So, you think House Hlaalu is just an Imperial puppet? Shows what you know. Who really runs House Hlaalu? Not the house council. Those posers do what Orvas Dren tells them. Orvas Dren is the Camonna Tong kingpin. And one day, when the time is right, Orvas Dren, the Camonna Tong, and all right-thinking Dunmer will rise up, murder you outlanders in your beds, and restore Morrowind to its ancient glory.

Interested in Dwarven artifacts? Fine. Dwarven ruins are fascinating. And there's good loot. Just one suggestion: you find yourself over your head, back out, and go back to running errands and hunting rats for a while. Seriously. Those centurions -- spider centurions, sphere centurions, steam centurions -- they are far too dangerous for most adventurers.

There's a lot of money to be made looting the Dwarven ruins. Against the law, yes, but where's there's a profit to be made, folks turn a blind eye. One problem -- the artifacts are often made of metal, and heavy as hell. Unless you're a big brute, it's tough to carry away all the loot. Me, I carry a Divine Intervention or an Almsivi intervention scroll. Load up, read the scroll, and I'm back in town with a load of goods.

You like to poke your nose into doors out in the backcountry? A little suggestion. The places that look like they're made of a golden metal? With spires and towers? Those are Dwarven ruins. They're kinda dangerous -- partly because of the old Dwarven machines in them, and partly because of the kind of things that like to hide out in such old ruins. All the old ruins inside the Ghostfence, for example, are ancient Dwarven ruins. And I hear that vampires like them, too.

You're an outlander, maybe you don't know about the kinds of Daedric ruins we have here in Morrowind. Daedra cults worship the Bad Daedra. You can learn more about that at the Temple. Anyway, long ago, before the Temple put a stop to it, people used to worship bad Daedra -- Molag Bal, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Mehrunes Dagon -- at Daedra shrines. But lately, since the Empire came in, some people have taken up worshipping the bad Daedra at these old sites. And I warn you. These are dangerous places.

What are the most dangerous places in Morrowind? Well, probably the ash vampire citadels inside the Ghost Fence, on Red Mountain. But outside the Ghostfence? I guess the Daedric ruins would be the worst. They're all over the place, and full of bad Daedra, and the crazy folks who summon them. I hear vampires are pretty bad, too, but I've never seen any, personally. And the Dwemer sites are pretty bad, too.

Daedra? You know what they are, right? Well, Daedric shrines are where Daedra cults worship Daedra. Bad people who summon bad Daedra. Stay away from them. Why? Because Daedra are nasty. And the folks that worship them are even nastier.

How do you recognize a Daedric shrine? Well, they've got long, funny names, like Ashurnibibi or Zaintiraris. Some are well-known sites, like Ald Sotha and Bal Fell. And stone and architecture is unmistakable. Big, dark, grey-green stone ruins, funny angles, funny markings and patterns on the stone. Weird oval crooked doors. And inside, all funny angles.

You know, people say the Zainab -- and Ashlanders in general -- are lying and untrustworthy. But I think it is partly a problem of pride. If the truth will shame them, they don't want to say it. Among the Ashlanders, no one would be rude enough to force an Ashlander to admit something shameful. But we civilized people, in may ways we are less careful of another's feelings than the Ashlander savages. In particular, the men are very proud. I don't know about the women. We rarely see them here.

Have you heard about poor Ienas Sarandas? He lost his patrimony betting on the guar. Sold every piece of the family silverware to pay his debts. A pity. I think it's driven him a bit mad. Wears clothes fit for a lord, and hasn't got a drake for a meal.

Don't carry those cheap armorer's hammers around with you. Hammers are dead weight. Buy them, and use them on the spot. If you're a shortblade specialist, and you like to travel light, it's often cheaper to own and carry backup weapons.

Always carry a jug of sujamma with you. That burst of strength, and the ability to penetrate armor and deal serious damage, will give you the one-time punch to face an opponent you normally can't handle.

Remember: there's always a welcome for you in the Imperial cult. If you're having a hard time here in Morrowind, outlander, come home to the Imperial cult shrine. We'll find a use for you, and help you feel good while doing good.

Keep your weapons sharp, your armor in good shape. If you can't afford to have others do it, learn to do it yourself. Get the best quality you can afford. You can be no better than the quality of your tools.

Don't be in such a hurry when you're traveling. Take your time. Keep your eyes open. Learn from your experiences. You're on the road to learn about yourself and the world around you.

Everybody can learn a few spells. You don't need to be a wizard to cast spells. It makes life easier. And when you learn a spell, practice. It's the only way to learn, and it helps to pass the time.

Never take a life carelessly. It cheapens you, and diminishes you. Take life seriously, if taking life is your profession.

Sadrith Mora is the best town to shop for spells.

If you're having trouble persuading someone, offer a bribe. Don't be so stuffy. Bribes are the lubricant of honest commerce.

If you help someone, they'll remember. If you're loyal to others, they'll be loyal to you. Do the right thing. You know the right thing. Do the right thing, so you'll never regret what you've done.

They say a vampire can hide among us? Nonsense. One look at the face, and you know a vampire. You can't disguise that. You can wear a helmet. But here in Morrowind, we don't trust anyone who won't take off a helmet in public. In Morrowind, someone like that is looking to spend some time in a big, hot fire. What? Well... now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever seen a Telvanni guard with his helmet off. Hmm....

In Morrowind, we don't like to hear about vampires. We know that, back West, the Mages Guild helps them hide. The Mages Guild is full of necromancers, and we don't like that one bit. If we see a vampire here in Morrowind, we put him on a stake and roast him. Well, truth be, we tell the Ordinators, let them take care of it. Private citizens have no business fighting vampires. They're too dangerous.

They say they don't have much of a problem here with vampires. From my experience, that's the truth in the settled parts of Vvardenfell. But in the backcountry, you hear rumors. Out near Dagon Fel, Maar Gan, Molag Mar, you hear people talk of running into vampires in Dwemer ruins, and in ancestral tombs. Best to be careful. You don't want to run into those babies. And if you do, you want a nice, crisp copy of Divine Intervention so you can get safe, fast, all in one piece.

Vampires are not as much of a problem here as back in the West. Here, the Dark Elves burned them out centuries ago, and the Temple makes sure they don't come back.

Why is the Temple so upset about this Nerevarine prophecy? Crazy old gentlemen, wandering around the ashlands and staring at the sun, talking to themselves. Big deal. 'Lord Nerevar is coming back to save Morrowind.' About time, I say. Where was he when the Empire walked in here and took over?

Somebody said Larrius Varro over at Fort Moonmoth is looking for you. Said he wanted to talk to you. Don't know what about.

I heard the Ordinators burned out a camp of Nerevarine cult worshippers out by the Ghostfence, in Foyada Ashur-Dan. The Temple seems to be going to a lot of trouble to exterminate a bunch of simple Ashlanders. They can't help being ignorant. They're just primitive savages. And nobody takes that 'return of Lord Nerevar' stuff seriously. Crazy rag-robed prophets. Not much threat there.

Do you know where Telasero is? The old Dunmer stronghold between Suran and Molag Mar? The Temple just sent three Ordinators from the Order of War up there. Some trader reported seeing corprus monsters there.

I heard Mangolodh, the Legion scout, stuck his head in there, just looking around, saw a corprus monster, and teleported right out. He reported to the Legion, but I don't know what they're going to do about it. Pass it on to the Temple, that's my guess.

That bookseller, Jobasha, in Jobasha's Rare Books, talks like an abolitionist, but no one's ever pinned anything on him. The Ordinators have a guard in there keeping an eye on him, but somehow he stays out of trouble. Maybe he has friends in high places....

That bookseller in the Foreign Quarter, Jobasha, is an avowed abolitionist, but so far he has managed to avoid being caught. There's an Ordinator in there all the time, keeping an eye on his activities, so he must be very discreet.

Did you hear about the fellow they found in the canal? Flesh was swollen and covered with growths. His arms and legs were all twisted and out of shape. And the face? It was a face, you could tell from the eyes and the holes for nose and mouth. But it wasn't a face you'd ever want to see again. The priest said it looked like corprus. Corprus? Here in Vivec? That's a worry.

Have you heard of this new secret cult, the Sixth House? They say they sit around in caves, cutting off pieces of their own flesh and eating it. It's that corprus disease -- makes the flesh grow wild and crazy. Cut a piece off, and another piece grows back, bigger and better. Guards say, 'We're looking into it.' Right. That makes me feel better.

If you're thinking of traveling up country, near Sheogorad, or out Molag Amur way, or inside the Ghostfence, you need to know about corprus. It's a disease that turns normal creatures into beasts. Turns men into twisted, mad lumps of flesh, superhumanly strong, and full of hatred. You get corprus from fighting with diseased creatures. It's hard to get corprus, but harder to get rid of it. In fact, I hear there is no cure.

If you are looking for access to the places of power, start with Tienius Delitian, King Helseth's Captain of the Royal Guard. He's fair and professional, and King Helseth is no simple figurehead, unlike his predecessor. There's real power there, and Helseth is just going to get more powerful as he learns how Mournhold works.

Modern Mournhold is built upon the ruins of Old Mournhold. At the end of the First Era, Mournhold was destroyed by Mehrunes Dagon. Sotha Sil and Almalexia arrived and drove Mehrunes Dagon back into Oblivion, but the city already lay in ruins. You can reach the abandoned passages of Old Mournhold through the sewers beneath Mournhold, and adventurers still seek lost treasures in the First Era ruins.

Here's our little secret. I can kill you without quickening my pulse.

Don't mess with the Hands of Almalexia. It's not a mistake you'll get to repeat.

Don't mess with the Royal Guard. It's not a mistake you'll get to repeat.

All the power in Mournhold starts with Almalexia at the Temple. Of course, no mere mortal is going to get access to the Lady of Mercy. But Fedris Hler, her steward, is quite approachable. Start with him, win his confidence, and then maybe things will open up for you.

You're an adventurer, right? Then watch out if you go down in the sewers. That's the way to the ruins of Old Mournhold, yes, and that's where an adventurer can make his fortune. But... the Black Dart Gang preys on adventurers down below. They look harmless -- like outcasts or beggars. You may think you're tough... you can handle anything. But not the Black Dart Gang.

I've heard that a fellow named Dovor Oren has deep pockets. He is looking for weapons and armor -- special items -- and he pays well. I can't tell you where to find him. Just keep your eyes out for him and his associates.

Submitting to the First Reman, one battlemage of Cyrodiil offered his new liege a magical ring as tribute, claiming it gave its wearer "a thousand years' wisdom." The Emperor, not wanting in wisdom, gave the ring to this warrior so it might benefit the training of his legions. A worthy opportunity to use it did not reveal itself until a clever trainee posed this warrior a riddle he had not yet tasted. Perhaps the ring had? He sampled it then, but gained nothing. The men did not mind, but the riddle remains.

Sload soap can be a very useful ingredient in a potion, but ingesting it by itself yields mostly adverse effects.

I'm glad I got to mine here rather than in the Hlaalu Egg Mine. That place is suffocating.

The saharkhan is the leader of a Shinathi clan. They are our strongest warriors and lead us in battle and on great hunts. The succession of saharkhans often comes down to single combat, either against the current saharkhan or against other challengers. But we are not bloodthirsty savages.

When one of our kwoom nears the end of its life, we gather to carry it to Ushashishad hive and present it as a gift. All Gan-Ettu are invited to stand among the skyrenders as they accept it. This, combined with regular tithes from our hunts, helps us to earn their trust.

It's difficult and time-consuming to prepare a new skyrender hive for our presence, so we move camp much less often than the other Shinathi. This makes life challenging in times of drought or when the hunting is poor. But we are Vivec's most insightful students, and we have always found a way.

Very few of us Shinathi are trained in magic. We use potions made by our priests and alchemists instead. We especially distrust anyone who summons daedra or the undead to do their bidding.

Skyrender hatchlings have not yet developed poison glands, so they're much less dangerous than the adults.

Not all Shinathi are born into the clan. It doesn't happen often, but sometimes one of the city people decides to leave their old life behind and seek out the freedom of the canyons. If they adopt our customs, we welcome them as one of our own. Most also take on a new name when they join a clan.

Skyrender venom poisons and paralyzes the victim, and it's prized by assassins all over Resdayn for that reason. A good hunter can make a lot of coin by harvesting poison glands and selling them to fellche agents and alchemists.

Shinathi almost never keep slaves. We don't trust them around our herds and our belongings, and who wants to keep watch over a slave the whole time while we move camp? If we capture one, we return them to the fellche for money or useful city-made items.

Many crates of flin and cyrodiilic brandy pass through the canyons on their way to Narsis. The bottles are lightweight and valuable, unlike most of the alcohol made in Resdayn.

An n'thil like you might've never seen a skyrender hive before. They look like mangy pustules growing on the canyon walls, with lots of little holes for the skyrenders to crawl in and out of. Some of the holes are big enough for a che to enter too, but that doesn't mean you should. If the skyrenders swarming outside haven't stung you to death, they will once you squeeze into their hive.

Fellche is our word for those of Veloth's people who've settled down in cities.

Let me tell you about Narsis, outlander. The Fortuna? Good friends of ours run that place. Brevur Heights? Those rich merchants know better than to forget their... obligations to the Camonna Tong. Just something to keep in mind, n'wah.

Some prospectors have been trying to make their way into the Nadin Mine to the southeast. Well, I wish them luck. The mine hides valuable riches, but I've never managed to descend to the lower levels.

Some citizens say that suspicious figures appear near the Ildram's residence at night. Nobody's found any clues about their identities yet.

Shipal-Sharai was founded by a Shinathi clan and the governor Llaros Samalsi is their descendant. His family's tomb, located along the Purple Road to the south, might still hold some Shinathi relics inside.

I think that Robjorn the Shining fancies himself Lord Commander Velavel's successor just because he is her deputy now. Hah! The Order of Narsis has always been commanded by a native Dunmer, and besides, by the time the Lord Commander is old enough to step down that Nord will have been dead and buried for a hundred years.

It's been customary that the Lord Commander of the Order of Narsis is a Morrowind native, ever since Emperor Tiber Septim bestowed that honor on one of Narsis' military leaders after the Armistice. Some say that this tradition means that more capable knights are passed over for the job. Of course, I would never cast aspersions on Lord Commander Ethasi Velavel's credentials. She has earned her position.

I heard the renowned bard Tiffany of Tigonus is staying at The Last Drop here in Narsis. She tries to be inconspicuous while traveling, but will always take the time to give lessons to those who ask. If you want to learn about being a bard, you should pay her a visit before she moves on.

Many ships pass through the Hlerynhul habor. You might even find passage back to Cyrodiil. Where you belong.

With so many ships coming up and down the Kanit River and crossing the lake, there are bound to be lost valuables down there. If you know spells to breathe water and detect enchantments, I'm sure you'll find something. Ernest Cergelle here in town can teach you both.

There are several abandoned fortifications nearby, back from when House Redoran ruled over this whole area. They've been throroughly looted, of course, but a clever explorer might still find something of value in them.

Old Ebonheart has the best bakery I had the pleasure of visiting. I wish Bal Foyen had an actual bakery.

I am more interested in greater mysteries.

There is an abandoned mine underneath the dormitory. They used to mine ebony for weapons there, when this monastery used to be an Ordinator training academy.

There are many derelict places in this monastery where no one goes, where they say ghosts of dead Ordinators still linger.

There is an inn being built here. Whoops, that is not a secret...

I won't share any secrets with you, Hlaalu.

Our family founded Omaynis, but they originally hail from Narsis. Our patriarch Tarvyn Omayn still resides in our ancestral manor in the Hlaalu capital.

Neresa Brenos had an accident a few months ago. She broke her hammer against the anvil and a flying shard of iron put out her eye. She's recovered now and working again. That's good -- where else would the miners get their pickaxes and shovels?

You wouldn't think to look at him, but publican Olvys Omayn is a relative of governor Alvuru Omayn. Second cousin once removed, I think. Or was it first cousin twice removed? Anyway, something must've caused a rift between him and the rest of the noble family.

There's an old shipwreck up on the ridge above the manor district. Quite an unusual place for a ship to be stranded, if you ask me. No one knows how it got there. Takes a bit of climbing to reach it.

Our tribe was driven to this place by the swords and spells of the House Dunmer. We may be called "Ashlanders", but we have always traveled the orange roads. In the Armun Ashlands, we would surely perish.

Do you see the hill in the east? It is hollowed out and contains a place of worship. Do not go there if you seek to profane it or you will regret it.

It is said that the Nerevarine prophecies are about to be fulfilled and the outlanders and their allies will be driven out of Morrowind.

Massur-Dan is a powerful fighter and we are stronger with him. But if it were up to him, we would openly wage war against the House Dunmer. I do not believe we could survive this for long.

Asha-tara might be our leader, but she is no ashkhan. Musa Ashadallit is our wise woman, but no ancestors answer her. Some say that this can't go on forever and that we need a proper ashkhan to survive.

I heard there's a smith in Skyrim who has learned to harness the power of fire atronachs to fuel his forge. Now if I could learn how to do that, I'd get back to Orsinium and pile up the real riches.

If you are here to speak with Mistress Eldale it is advisable that you speak to her tax collector, Belas Kasihan first. She is somewhat like an executive hand of Mistress Eldale and deals with the organization of trade. She may be found in the lower entrance of Tel Darys. It is truly not advisable to approach Telvanni lords unprepared.

Fernil Yantus is a strange man. He's been behaving quite oddly recently.

Rayenaye Hler is an escaped criminal. She used to live in Port Telvannis and earn money as a burglar, but then things became a little heated over there, if you know what I mean. I used to live in Port Telvannis as well, but common folks' dwellings were fortunately not that attractive for Rayenaye. Indeed, I don't think Gah Sadrith is the optimal place for her occupation. Beside Tel Darys there is nothing, and Mistress Eldale is one to avoid angering.

I am just a slave. My master shares no secrets with me.

My secrets are the source of my power. Why should I share them with you?

Mistress Eldale curiously shows some interest in Chimeri civilization and customs, but it is not as rich and sophisticated as Aldmeri culture is. The Velothi are wild, cruel and ferocius. The Telvanni in particular know no restraint and lack our delicate aesthetics. That is why Eldale was able to reach the status of Councilor so easily, though I do not understand why one would want to belong to a Dunmeri House. Has she no self-esteem?

Mistress Eldale has weak spot for the Chimer and their civilization. Can you imagine -- she nostalgicaly adores old Chimer ways and customs from times before the Tribunal. Very unusual for an Altmer for sure, but she's a Telvanni foremost, and they always seem to have motivations of their own...

Although I deal with initiating those with promise into House Telvanni, Mouth Nevrile Omayn has little faith in my talent for identifying such 'promise'. Hah! The only reason she can't see the best from our inititates is her Master's penchant for giving them pointless tasks in his beloved Ranyon-ruhn, home to the only real Temple in the Telvanni Isles. If that's not a sign of a weak Master, I don't know what is.

Owning slaves is not just a way to have less menial work to do yourself, for the Telvanni. It's also a question of status. I don't care, I'm an outcast. And if I had slaves, I'm afraid they would never shut up.

I don't know what the Abolitionists really want. If Helseth were to abolish slavery, would they be happy? I doubt it.

Verana Eindari at Ranyon-ruhn is an unhappy wife.

Avoid paying a visit to my closest neighbors. They are not nice fellows.

If you need help, you're on your own. The Telvanni are extremely individualistic, and they have nothing but contempt for needy outlanders.

The guards in Port Telvannis are very strict about that Hospitality Papers nonsense. Keep that in mind if you go there one day.

I often speak about the wars I was in, and the wounds I got. But I'm not sure whether I actually went to any war or suffered any wound. It may just be the stories told by the voices.

Do not trust the Telvanni. Some of them are insane. And you can't trust insane persons.

Imperial presence is very weak in that area of Morrowind. There's Firewatch and Bal Oyra. Every other city is controlled by House Telvanni.

House Telvanni's capital is Port Telvannis.

House Telvanni is not a unified front. The power-hungry among their lot pine for greater standing in the heartlands, close to Port Telvannis. But others, those too ambitious to even pretend to respect Temple decrees, had no qualms about settling on the Blighted Island centuries ago.

Dro'Qosha knows that foreman Dels Ravyn has been scheming with the Camonna Tong. They don't like outlanders very much, %PCName. Maybe they will try to take over some of the local farms. Maybe they won't. Dro'Qosha's condition remains the same either way.

The Empire controls the mouth of the Thirr River, House Hlaalu has claimed most of the west bank, and House Indoril has the east bank. In the southeast the Dres have holdings on the shores of Lake Andaram, and the Redoran continue to cling to their forts on Lake Coronati. The Temple city of Almas Thirr, on the other hand, strides the entire river at its midpoint. So paradoxically, everyone controls the river and yet at the same time no one does. Our goal is to change that situation in our favor.

You know about crabs? I hate them. Little bastards. I take my tanto to any I see. That's why I'm called the Crab Slayer. I kill crabs, big and small.

Alnas Driln is something of a local hero in Indal-ruhn. He saved a villager from getting dragged off by a pack of mudcrabs years ago. We've called him the "Crab Slayer" ever since.

More than a few Dwemer coins have found their way into the hands of local villagers lately. Maybe a band of opportunists finally cleared out the old Bthungtch ruins to the south? If so, they wouldn't be the first to move contraband through Indal-ruhn.

I can't call it a secret, but most merchants who disembark their wares at Indal-ruhn do it to bypass the tolls at Almas Thirr. They haul their goods overland until they can pack them back onto ships at one of the plantation docks.

Gildaraen got sent here because she ate her cousin. And she didn't even wait for him to be properly dead first. Or that's what Kassius told me. He might've been lying. Tryr says I mustn't believe everything the old man tells me.

I am old. Some say in secret that an old Ashkhan must be replaced by a younger Ashkhan. These whisperers want a more vicious Ashkhan, who has no polite conversations with outlanders. I hear these things. And I prepare.

The Ashkhan is too friendly to you outlanders. Take a good look around. You won't be welcome back here soon enough.

There are Ishanuran who wish to replace Mibdinahaz as Ashkhan. I cannot intercede in this process. But I know Mibdinahaz, and I trust him more than some young grumbler with more anger than sense.

I treat House Dunmer and outlanders when they visit my yurt. For this, I have earned the hatred of Lassour. I hope the Ashkhan watches his back.

In all Morrowind, there is no healer so skilled as our Trehaddi. But I would never tell her this.

Trehaddi saved my life once. She still saves it every day.

The last time we made camp at this place, the Ishanuran were burying a gulakhan.

A number of sky burials and burial mounds dot the Armun wasteland. You will know these sacred places by the little flags that mark them. They are meant as a warning to the living. The dead are restless and they do not wish to be disturbed.

Trama root and scathecraw can be used to make a potion that restores one's willpower. Both of these plants grow here in the wasteland.

The crowned kagouti is a fearsome beast that can withstand almost any attack. However, its one known weakness is frost magic.

My secrets are not for your ears, outlander.

Not many people know this, but Shalaasa has a little sister. The two don't see eye to eye. She's a smuggler, you see. Runs illegal goods between Bodrum and Kragenmoor, from what I've heard.

Have you heard the bard Seneclius Blavius sing? He performs at Lucky Shalaasa's Caravanserai. Everyone knows that he'd like to leave Arvud behind and take the stage in a big city like Kragenmoor or Narsis, but can't because he's signed a contract that prevents him from doing so.

There's an entrance to Ald Erfoud in Uvayn Manor. It's not open to the public, though. They keep it locked up tight.

None of the Uvayn family members have been the same since serjo Olmas Uvayn, the head of the family, disappeared in the Armun Ashlands, but it affected Felara Uvayn the most. The young lady still holds on to the hope that her father might be alive.

There are stray caravan pack guars wandering out there in the ashlands. They carry all sorts of goods. Some of them have become crazed and will try to bite you, so be careful if you approach them.

You might come across Ashlander sky burials in the Armun Ashlands, high atop mountains marked with colorful flags and with cliff racers circling above. Some of the corpses are Ashlanders, some of them are just travelers who have lost their way in the wasteland. Sometimes the dead in these places are restless, so it's best to avoid them.

If the Temple would loosen their regulations a little, I wouldn't have to spend so much time in these halls.

Take the time to learn about Morrowind, its customs and its history. Read books, ask questions, pay attention and be respectful. This may not sound like a secret, but you'd be surprised to learn how many outlanders neglect to follow this simple rule.

I don't spend enough time here to know many secrets.

I don't keep a lot of secrets; I'm a sailor. Even if I did, I wouldn't tell, would I?

We're right in the middle of the Thirr River here. Very deep. Heh.

It is unwise to trade secrets, outlander. Heed the Anticipations and guard your secrets from your foes.

Almas Thirr's monastery is ancient, and the Bloodstone Shrine more so, but the stronghold itself is not. It was built because the Houses stopped working together. It's a far cry from the days when Veloth's people marched as a single body.

Not many outlanders live in Almas Thirr. One who comes to mind is Tilresi, the bookseller. She set up shop in the Canalworks a few years back. She's a little strange, as outlanders are, but the local Dunmer seek her counsel if they have trouble understanding foreigners. Perhaps she has counsel for other outlanders as well.

Never give the guards an opportunity to put you in the local prison. I've heard some grueling tales of what happened to some of the... less cooperative prisoners there. But maybe it's just Warden Uvelen spreading rumors so that we think twice before breaking the law.

Sailors tell tales about grand dreugh citadels of coral and glass, hidden deep underwater. But that sounds like proper nonsense, doesn't it? How would those overgrown mudcrabs build something like that? They can't even use tools. Preposterous.

The local chapter of the Thieves Guild is somehow still managing to avoid the Ordinators' fury. Such slippery scum. Commander Irnami Silsi should step in -- I bet she would make short work of the damned thieves.

Don't believe the claims put forward by the Indoril that Almas Thirr is a neutral Temple holding. Most ranking Temple officials here come from House Indoril, after all.

Irnami Silsi is always looking to punish the wicked and quell the heretical. Not even the Ordinators can match her zeal.

The Clerk's Hall in Ilvi House holds more than just musty old documents. The chapel's vault is directly beneath it. What kind of treasure are they keeping in there? No one knows. But it's enough for Lord Ilvi to have made it the best-guarded place in Roa Dyr.

At the base of the hill that the Hall of Judgement is built on, there's a grotto that some people have gone pearl diving in.

A group of scholars came through Dondril recently for sundries. I overheard they're stationed in the Daedric ruin of Ikinammassu to the east-southeast. They had guards with them too, and paperwork from both the Temple and Indoril Ilvi saying that they were allowed to conduct research there. I wonder what they hope to discover at the ruin.

Lord Indoril Ilvi holds sway over a large part of the east bank of the Thirr. He is a benevolent lord and the local adjudicator of Tribunal law.

Dondril is mostly a community of peasant farmers, but it's proximity to Old Ebonheart means that there's a lot of foot traffic from outlander merchants on their way to and from Almalexia. The local Dark Elves would have you believe they are better off alone, but in reality they rely on a lot of the trade and supplies that come through this way. They're far too proud to admit it, though.

Also, I often find myself battling undead and the occasional vampire. As a precaution, I also have my blades enchanted with turn undead and fire damage enchantments.

We've been sent to stop that, but it's not an easy task, and we know the smugglers will just take the land route instead. The Hlaalu are selectively negligent about stopping smugglers.

Ever since the late King Llethan opened Vvardenfell to settlement, immigrants from all over Tamriel have flooded into Old Ebonheart, making their way north. Everyone's looking for opportunities in newly opened mines and guild chapters.

The masonry down here is old and in disrepair. The stones in the walls are loose and some of then can be easily moved. An ideal place for a thieves' stash, don't you think? Keep your eyes open -- maybe you'll find a treasure someone's left behind.

One of the toughest pilgrim routes is the Seven Graces on Vvardenfell. Thankfully the Temple keep most of the shrines fairly well guarded, but the pilgrimage to Red Mountain is not an experience I'm looking to relive any time soon.

Out in the open waters of the Inner Sea, there's a small island with an ancestral tomb. While diving for pearls, I think I saw an unusually large structure underwater, west of the island. I didn't dare get any closer.

Farasimayn, the ancient stronghold east of here, has always been a refuge for shady individuals, but recently, I've heard rumors of Daedric cultists settling there. They've grown bolder in their attacks as well. The stronghold lies close to a road -- you'd do well to avoid it.

To think that the ancestral tomb of the Mora clan is just a stone's throw away, overlooking the bay to the west. It's less visited than it used to be, but we still have some Temple faithful come through from time to time.

Gorne is the only Indoril chapel in Sundered Scar. If you see any other Indoril-style structure, it's probably an abandoned ruin harboring who knows who -- or what.

BEGIN TR MAP3 OTHRENIS SECRET

It feels as though the roads have become less safe over the years. I've heard rumors that all sorts of unsavory folk have been taking refuge in the old Velothi towers around the region. Maybe an adventurer such as yourself might get something out of doing some good.

Indoril Beroth has ordered all citizens and travelers to keep a wide berth around Kaushasiralis, the Daedric ruins on the island to the east of here. Apparently, a group of cultists have taken it as their haven and the immediate vicinity is no longer safe until House Indoril can send out forces to clear it out.

The Telvorys family has always taken pride in their ancestral tomb just west of here, across the river. Sadly, the complex flooded a few years back. %Name is told some of the lower selections collapsed and are now inaccessible. %Name's heart truly goes out to them.

I learned how to handle a guar by reading "The Guarherder's Art".

Naleth Llarni actually tried to sell me some skooma. He should know better.

Lucien Servano, the Imperial Cult priest, is a strange man. I suspect he uses alcohol on a regular basis.

You know why this place was called Fort Windmoth? Ask the priest, you'll be sure to get a literal answer.

I'm not supposed to say this, but I saw our commander receive a lot of Telvanni visitors last week.

I believe that the two traders who recently left the fort were forced to do so by our good commander. I wonder why he wanted them to move away.

I have no secrets for young trainees. They hear everything I have to say; they just have not learned to comprehend it yet.

Oryn Traven believes in teaching through forcing his trainees to come to their own conclusions. He offers the material without explanation, but whether you absorb the knowledge is then up to you. To that end, there are two empty rooms across the entrance shaft. See what you may learn from them, outlander.

We have an arrangement with Neldam Volothre. So long as we do not bring our business to his doorstep, we may use the trapdoor in his shop to leave and enter our base.

I sometimes wonder what that hollow sound is that I hear when I walk around. I wonder if there are any big places with an echo nearby, such as a cave.

If you're curious about the Dwemer, talk to Norm in the Noble's Walk. He's spent near his whole life studying them, and is eager to talk the ear off anyone and everyone who agrees to listen.

You'd think these ruins have been explored top-to-bottom already, -- and they have, for the most part -- but it does seem there are still new things to find. In fact, a team clearing cave-ins in Xatu's Eye just discovered a new chamber full of stuff. Some kind of vault, maybe. No one's figured out how to get in, though.

There's a reward and a half waiting for you if you can figure out a way to open the King's Tomb in the Golden Mausoleum. Good luck, though. It's been sealed for who knows how long. Every person who comes through has the same idea, and they all come up short.

If you should seek the blessings of Almsivi or Saint Nerevar while traveling the wastes, there are a few shrines across the old domain of Indoril Mora. It's always wise to leave an offering.

Falas Emalen is getting old, and it seems like Llevana Andruthi will be the next captain of the guard when he retires. She knows her way around a blade, at least.

The Indoril Indalas is very worried about the Telvanni gaining any influence in his demesne. He's supposed to have scouts all across his corner of the Mephalan Vales, but does he have anyone keeping an eye on Marog?

Travelers go missing in the Mephalan Vales often enough, but recently, a couple bodies have turned up with strange-looking bite marks on their necks. We don't know what to think of it. The Temple was supposed to have killed off all Morrowind's vampires ages ago.

A group of adventurers passed through here on their way north. They didn't talk much, but someone heard one of them mention something about Naram -- that old Velothi tower on the coast. What they'd want with the place, nobody knows.

Master Darythi's slipping, they say. Clinging to his coins and spending long hours in his vault. The Zafirbel Bay Company is pressing their advantage. Our friendly neighbors over the hills might not be so friendly for long.

It's said that Verendes Hlervan single-handedly defended a Deshaan monastery from an Argonian warband during the Arnesian War. For his heroism, he was promoted to the local commander of the Ordinators in Mourning. His presence in the city is a true blessing.

The Sacred Lands are home to some of the oldest burials in the history of Morrowind, and of course the holy site of Necrom and the city above it. Southwest of the cliffside path that leads to the city can be found the ancestral tomb of the venerable Telvanni Vaerin family. In typical, grandiose Telvanni fashion, it is said that the first Lord Vaerin expressly demanded not to be interred in the halls of Necrom. And they wonder why they are seen as the most isolated of the Great Houses...

Archcanon Sareleth has served in the position for almost as long as anyone can remember. No predecessor can quite match her term of office.

When the processions for the dead make their way down the causeway, it is a sight to see.

I don't really have any proof as of now, but I suspect Hlavora must be involved in criminal activities. There's just something not quite right about her. It's way she walks, the way she talks, the clothes she wears and the amount of money she makes. She's able to hide it well, but I just know she makes A LOT more than a normal shipmaster would. The only viable explanation is that she's a smuggler. And I'm going to prove it. Eventually.

The other day I heard something startling from a local. Apparently Masalmalu Mendas has been stealing from her customers. The local told me that Masalmalu is heavily indebted and as a result goes out stealing her customers wares and then calls it an 'accident'. I don't know what to believe, but I sure do pity her.

Doing things over and over is how people get good at things. Doing things over and over but just slightly different each time is how people discover new things. It's how I eventually created my own brand of skooma.

If you're talented at something, that's great. But if you're smart like me, you use tools to capitalize on your talent. That's why I always carry potions of feather, fortify speed and restore fatigue on me. I'm a good delivery girl, but with these potions I become one of the best in the trade.

If you want to earn money, you should be willing to do whatever it takes to get it. Being 'ethical' might earn you respect, but it doesn't earn you gold.

An unconscious man might earn you gold, a dead man won't.

Information is valuable. If you know something useful, you might just find someone who is willing to pay for it.

I'm only kind when I need to be. If you're overly kind people will perceive you to be weak. And believe me, you don't want to be perceived as such.

[Hlera just stares blankly at you.]

I've never been so proud of myself as I am right now. And that's saying something.

Nothing that would concern someone of your stature.

Nothing too special, I assure you.

Maybe some other time?

I have no secrets that could be of interest to you, %PCRace.

I've been to Necrom once. It was the most beautiful city I have ever seen in my life.

I wasn't always a believer in the Tribunal. You see, one day I went out walking up the mountain and then I stumbled upon a cave. Inside I found a priest, his name was Felms Sendas. He taught me the way of the Temple and I've been a follower ever since.

I heard there's a large shrine to Boethiah to the south of here. It will probably be a long walk, but who knows what you might find.

I think Mervyn needs to stop boycotting me and my husband. He really should just accept the fact that we're the best scavengers in town, and therefore the winners. Just don't tell anyone I told you that.

I think Mervyn Andalas should stop his petty 'boycot'. He should be a real trader and just focus on making a profit, not on being a righteous fool. Being noble might get you friends, but it doesn't get you a profit.

Any secrets I know will remain secrets, understand?

Did you know that Andar Mok is supposed to be owned by the Master of Alt Bosara? It's not like you will ever see him visit here, of course.

There are a lot of shipwrecks in this area, swim around and you might find something nice.

Looking for a Dwemer ruin? There's one on the other side of the mountain. Crawling with bandits.

Mervyn Andalas has boycotted the Veniths. He won't offer his services as a trader to them. Serves them right: they really should learn to share.

It's a pity. Dreynis Teran is usually so respectable, but as soon as he has a drink he turns into an absolute s'wit. He always regrets it afterwards too.

If you climb up the mountain you can get a beautiful view of the land. Just watch out for bandits along the way.

Do you know what happens when an outlander wanders around in a village full of Dunmer? Don't worry; I won't spoil it for you. You'll find out soon enough.

Well... now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever seen a Telvanni guard with his helmet off. Hmm...

In Morrowind, we don't like to hear about vampires. We know that, back West, the Mages Guild helps them hide. The Mages Guild is full of necromancers, and we don't like that one bit.

You like to poke your nose into doors out in the backcountry? A little suggestion. The places that look like they're made of a golden metal? With spires and towers? Those are Dwarven ruins. They're kinda dangerous -- partly because of the old Dwarven machines in them, and partly because of the kind of things that like to hide out in such old ruins. All the old ruins inside the Ghostfence, for example, are ancient Dwarven ruins. And I hear that vampires like them, too.

Vampires are not as much of a problem here as back in the West. Here, the Dark Elves burned them out centuries ago, and the Temple makes sure they don't come back.

What are the most dangerous places in Morrowind? Well, probably the ash vampire citadels inside the Ghost Fence, on Red Mountain. But outside the Ghostfence? I guess the Daedric ruins would be the worst. They're all over the place, and full of bad Daedra, and the crazy folks who summon them. I hear vampires are pretty bad, too, but I've never seen any, personally. And the Dwemer sites are pretty bad, too.

You're an outlander, maybe you don't know about the kinds of Daedric ruins we have here in Morrowind. Daedra cults worship the Bad Daedra. You can learn more about that at the Temple. Anyway, long ago, before the Temple put a stop to it, people used to worship bad Daedra -- Molag Bal, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Mehrunes Dagon -- at Daedra shrines. But lately, since the Empire came in, some people have taken up worshipping the bad Daedra at these old sites. And I warn you. These are dangerous places.

How do you recognize a Daedric shrine? Well, they've got long, funny names, like Ashurnibibi or Zaintiraris. Some are well-known sites, like Ald Sotha and Bal Fell. And stone and architecture is unmistakable. Big, dark, grey-red stone ruins, funny angles, funny markings and patterns on the stone. Weird oval crooked doors. And inside, all funny angles.

Daedra? You know what they are, right? Well, Daedric shrines are where Daedra cults worship Daedra. Bad people who summon bad Daedra. Stay away from them. Why? Because Daedra are nasty. And the folks that worship them are even nastier.

Have you heard of this new secret cult, the Sixth House? It's been settled on Vvardenfell for some time, but I've heard that they're paying smugglers to try to bring in their goods to the mainland. Some kind of strange statues.

Have you heard of this new secret cult, the Sixth House? They say they sit around in caves, cutting off pieces of their own flesh and eating it. It's that corprus disease -- makes the flesh grow wild and crazy. Cut a piece off, and another piece grows back, bigger and better. Guards say, 'We're looking into it.' Right. That makes me feel better.

If you help someone, they'll remember. If you're loyal to others, they'll be loyal to you. Do the right thing. You know the right thing. Do the right thing, so you'll never regret what you've done.

If you're having trouble persuading someone, offer a bribe. Don't be so stuffy. Bribes are the lubricant of honest commerce.

Never take a life carelessly. It cheapens you, and diminishes you. Take life seriously, if taking life is your profession.

Everybody can learn a few spells. You don't need to be a wizard to cast spells. It makes life easier. And when you learn a spell, practice. It's the only way to learn, and it helps to pass the time.

Don't be in such a hurry when you're traveling. Take your time. Keep your eyes open. Learn from your experiences. You're on the road to learn about yourself and the world around you.

Don't carry those cheap armorer's hammers around with you. Hammers are dead weight. Buy them, and use them on the spot. If you're a shortblade specialist, and you like to travel light, it's often cheaper to own and carry backup weapons.

Port Telvannis is the best town to shop for spells, bar none.

The Boss doesn't care if you do jobs for the Thieves Guild, so long as you don't cause trouble for the Syndicate. It may be a good idea to keep a membership with the Guild, even if just to use their connections to take care of a nasty price on your head. If you catch some real heat, you can talk to the Boss if you're allowed to meet him.

Never waiver from the path set before us by the saints and Tribunes. If you want to go far in life, there is no better secret to remember.

If you're looking for slaves, Tear is the only place in Morrowind worth your time. The Telvanni might say Port Telvannis is, but that's just because *we* supply the slaves. You'd do well to remember that, %PCClass.

When you're wandering the wilderness, be wary of disease. The Ghostfence has done its best to keep the blight diseases and corprus from spreading to the mainland, but you never know. Always keep a couple of cure potions on you.
