Is that a joke? It wasn't funny.

It's always good to see one of Veloth's children return home.

I feel like such a fool for abandoning the Temple.

I hope Ganalis comes home to the Temple some day.

I'm glad you told me about those priests of Arkay. I had no idea they would want my ancestors' ghosts banished.

Thanks for getting Fervayn's blessing for me. I didn't have the nerve to talk to him on my own.

Thanks for convincing my ancestors to leave the shrine alone.

You've done wonderfully, %pcrace. I knew the book would work. The Mother's words ring true to all of her children without fail. I pray I will see Ganalis Droryn here soon. These are for you, as promised.

I'm glad you were able to stop Ganalis from further disrespecting his ancestors. It's a shame you weren't able to convince him to stop worshipping the other Imperial spirits as well. You still deserve a little something for your trouble. You should have this.

You've defiled my ancestors' tomb. I should have known better than to trust you... You outlanders will never understand our ways. Get out of my sight.

Fervayn said I have his blessing to rebuild the shrine? That's fantastic news! I'll visit him as soon as I can. Thank you for your help. I think you should have these boots. I fished them out of the lake some time ago and my wife fixed them up. You should have this pearl as well. You're welcome in my home any time, outlander.

They said they would leave the shrine be? That's wonderful news. It's a shame that they wouldn't accept my new faith. I hope they come around. I found this in the lake some time ago. I think you should have it. Thank you for all your help.

That's a shame. I suppose you could see what the Imperial Cult thinks.

Your words have moved me, outlander. I've been a greedy fool. I heard the priest say that praying to Zenithar could bring you wealth. I thought it would help me with my work, but now I see that I don't need foreign gods. The Temple gave me everything I needed. I should have been content with what I had. If you see the priest again, you can tell him that I'll return to the Temple.

Really? I'm glad you told me. I'll stop trying to put his shrines in the tomb. The other Divines don't seem all that bad, though, like Zenithar. I'm going to keep praying to them.

You spoke to someone from the Temple? What did they have to say?

This Ganalis wants to place a shrine to Arkay in his family's ancestral tomb? I'm glad you came to me about this. His ancestors are right to be upset. Western priests of Arkay are vehemently against undead in any form, including honored Dunmeri ancestors. Tell Ganalis that. It should get him back on the true path. For good measure, bring him the book "Almalexia Speaks to Children". If you convince Droryn to come home to the Temple, I'll have a reward for you.

Tell Ganalis that we won't disturb the shrine. I hope he finds his way in the new world.

You bring that in here and don't give it to me? It seems the young have no manners.

He did? That was thoughtful of him. In my day, the only reason a Dunmer would pray to the Imperial gods was to spite their ancestors. It seems that Ganalis was only looking for a new way to venerate us. The world out there has changed, hasn't it? Very well. If Ganalis rebuilds the shrine, I will leave it be. I'm dead. Who am I to stand in the way of the paths of the living?

[He places the hackle-lo on a brazier.] Ah... I missed that. Seeing the smoke. Now, you wanted to talk about Ganalis? I was quite cross when he tried to put that foreign shrine in here. Cracked it right down the middle with my cane. What was he thinking? He should know better.

Is that hackle-lo you have there? Did you bring it as an offering to me?

My descendant has sent an outlander to argue with me on his behalf? He is a foolish child. Tell him that his foreign shrine is not welcome in this sacred place.

Ganalis has Fervayn's blessing. We will not argue.

The shrine can stay. We only hope that Ganalis returns to the Temple in time.

What do you want from us then?

No. He is a stupid child. He should return to the Temple or leave us be.

His veneration of foreign spirits is offensive, but... it seems his intentions are pure. The shrine can stay. I'll tell the others to leave it alone. Fervayn won't be happy, but he's never happy. Now begone.

Ganalis wants to put a shrine to an outlander god in our resting place. He's betrayed our family and our faith. Why should we leave his shrine alone?

%Name is familiar with this convert. Did Ganalis ever try simply speaking with the ghosts? Perhaps he was afraid. If you go to the Droryn ancestral tomb yourself and convince these ghosts to allow the shrine to Arkay, %Name will tell Ganalis Droryn to reward you. It is an important step in spreading the faith, yes?

A Dunmer is trying to put a shrine to the Imperial Divines in his ancestral tomb? This sounds like something you should tell Muran Samarys.

One of the local converts' ancestors won't accept a shrine in their tomb? %Name doesn't know what one should do in that situation. Zhirasha, the chapel priest, might.

I understand why you wouldn't want to get involved. I'll be here if you change your mind.

Thank you, outlander. I'd be open to a solution from the Imperial Cult or the Temple. I like what the priests at the Chapel of Stendarr have to say, but I still pray to the Three. There's a Temple north of here in Ald Iuval. I'm open to answers from whoever is willing to offer them.

It seems that my ancestors still won't leave the shrine in peace. Have you changed your mind about helping me?

I heard one of the priests at the Chapel of Stendarr say that in the west, worshippers of the Nine Divines often place shrines to the god Arkay near burial sites. I placed a small shrine to him inside my family's ancestral tomb to protect it from looters. When I returned to the tomb, the shrine was cracked. The same thing happened after I repaired it. I think the ghosts of my ancestors may be responsible. I only want to protect them. Could you help me find guidance on what to do in this situation?
