Oh, I think we both know the answer to that. You're here because you know something. You're plotting behind Lady Syl's back, and you've been caught.

The orb appears to be the source of the Aurorans' power.

I worry sometimes I'll go soft here, training mostly, and living easy. So now and then I go out along the coast on my own, just to stay in shape.

Lady Luck, huh? I like it! Yeah, that'll do nicely. All right, it's time to see if you're crazy good or just plain crazy.

Oh, I certainly hope so. I still want to find the gold, of course, but is it even worth it? I just want to go home.

At least, not for the moment. We will continue to monitor the situation, but I assure you we will make no further attempts to mislead you.

The old woman? I'd put her in the same class as you, actually - a peasant.

I understand Carahil knows more about Illusion than any other mage in Anvil. Of course, she only shares that knowledge with the Mages Guild.

Leave the Emperor in peace.

We is most pleased... eth... ified.

You won't regret it, sir. You'll find us true-hearted and brave.

Has the new ruler of Crucible thought about setting up a city morgue? I'd keep track of all the bodies!

Need something sharp? Stabbing, cutting, that sort of thing? I can accommodate you, I assure you.

Goblins are filth. More power to him.

As a vampire you must feed regularly. The longer you go without blood, the stronger you will become, but there are dramatic adverse effects as well.

Thank you for freeing me. I'm Graman gro-Marad, the Bloated Float's bouncer and helmsman. I've been locked in that storage room for hours.

I see. So an Orc named Mazoga wants to see me? And she expects me to come to her?

Courage, soldier. We have an Emperor again.

Well, what're you just standing there for?

He is a fool of a Captain in the Imperial Watch. He's a real law and order type.

Singings and ringings to you, Lord Sheogorath.

Sweetroll good. Fimmion give pants. Got pie? Apples? Fimmion hungry.

Would you believe Owyn once asked for my hand in marriage? It's true! Poor bastard was heart-broken when I turned him down. I'm old, not desperate.

A bargain at twice the price.

As I said, I fully understand. I shall be here when you feel you are prepared.

Excellent. Yours is the last item on the list. Now we just wait for the powers that be to pull the plug on Hieronymus Lex's seige.

Even if I had, why would I know anything about her goin' missing? Not that I'm saying I ever seen her. Cause I haven't.

Come on.

Such riches shouldn't go to waste. We must get in.

However, when you remove the cowl, eveyone will know you as yourself. Fortunately, the cowl still has the power to hide your alter ego from them.

Greetings, Khajiit.

The vampire cannot exist in the daylight for long. As the sun's rays strike his flesh, it will burn as if on fire.

Have you recovered the Madstone?

It's not even as if I was going to keep it forever. I was going to give it back to her, once I'd gotten what I wanted. That's not so wrong, is it?

The Council is investigating what happened at Wellspring Cave. Many of our resources are devoted to the task, leaving our ranks spread thin.

Hello milord.

Hello, Evoker.

Only those few wearing the Bands of the Chosen are allowed to leave the Garden.

If all goes well, I may call upon you for one last task. The danger will be great, but the reward will be greater. Unfortunately, there is a problem.

I can hear the Fanatics attacking the gate!

Arkay take your soul!

I'm disappointed in your choice. Why you would choose to honor the fetid madness of Dementia is beyond my understanding.

How do you do?

Welcome, Divine Crusader.

Do run along.

I guess it all doesn't matter now. Unless you can defeat those Painted Trolls, we have no chance of getting the Brush back.

Be ever vigilant. The crime of grave robbing is punishable only by death, so Agarmir is likely to do anything to keep his crimes secret.

Very good, then. I'll get right on it.

Are you sure? Well, all right. I can't give you a better offer.

The amulet is safe, however, and that must be enough for now. Thank you for returning it.
