Blind Faith

I encountered a Dunmer woman on the road between Hla Bulor and Baldrahn. She claimed she needed help getting to Baldrahn, and asked me to escort her. I declined.

I encountered a Dunmer woman on the road between Hla Bulor and Baldrahn. She claimed she needed help getting to Baldrahn, and asked me to escort her. I agreed to do this. Maenasi Assasnadit insisted that I follow the directions she gave.

I arrived at Baldrahn with Maenasi Assasnadit, but she seemed displeased because we had not followed her route, and refused to give me any reward.

When we reached the Dwemer bridge which Maenasi claimed to recognize, she said she would be able to continue on her own from here. She offered me her amulet as a reward.

When I took Maenasi's amulet, she revealed that she was in fact a powerful mabrigash, whose powers had somehow been suppressed by the amulet. Finally unleashed, she attacked!

Upon Maenasi Assasnadit's death, her companion pack rat transformed into a Dunmer priest, Gathys Daromar. He explained that he had trapped the mabrigash Maenasi with a trick amulet, but that before she was fully under his control, she had managed to curse him. Expressing his gratitude for releasing him, Gathys told me he would be able to reward me more fully if I came to visit him in Necrom at the Hall of Contemplation.

Maenasi Assasnadit is dead.
