A new quest


Malchik

Recommended Posts

For all you completists out there I discovered a quest UESP makes no reference to.

 

Strange man in Gindrala Hleran's house.

 

If you speak to Gindrala Hleran in Ald Rhun (I don't know when exactly, when the dreamers start to appear I think) she mentions the strange man and asks you to help get rid of him. It gets an updated journal entry just as all the quests when you have dealt with him. I discovered the quest after Dagoth Ur was dead and there is no potential for dialogue with dreamers - all I could do was kill him. There may be alternatives if the quest is found before Dagoth UR is dead. If anyone discovers this, please let me know.

that sounds intrigueing. do you think a lvl 4 will be able to handle it? that is my only character not beaten dagoth ur.

If a lvl 1 can kill vivec, a lvl 4 should easily manage to handle such an easy task, right.

 

Here is how...

 

 

SPOILER, as always.

To kill anything in the game, make this:

Exquisite Ring (may be bought in balmora)

Enchant with:

Make the ring (in this order):

Soul Trap 1 sec on Touch, 50 ft

Resist Magicka, 100-100, 1 sec on self

Weakness to Frost, 100-100, 1 sec on touch, 50 ft

Frost Damage, 100-100 (might have been 50-100), 1 sec on touch, 50 ft

 

 

Another one (which prevent the monsters from fighting back):

Further info. This quest is all but impossible to obtain. I have been talking to the guy as UHS who compiled their hints. No one knows how you get the quest and I chanced on it by accident. I have no idea what I did that was different other than completing the main quest before touching any side quest at all. Sadly I cannot remember precisely when the 'strange man' quest came as I was doing the main quest. Although I feel sure I had killed Dagoth Ur. I certainly had not cleared out the Hassour shrine.

 

Oddly all reference to the quest was later wiped out of the journal. I could go back to a saved game where Gildara Hleran acknowledged that I had killed the man but all journal entries relating to it had vanished. (I have a screen shot of the entry that proves I didn't imagine it!).

 

For those with consoles you can activate the quest by opening the dialogue box with Gildara Hleran and typing 'addtopic"strange man".' (In my version I have to do the same for the 'pillow shipment' quest in Balmora). I imagine you can only get the quest once you have triggered 'Sleepers Awake' in the main game but I have no evidence to support this. I await to see if, in my latest game, the completion of the main quest, which also closes the Sleepers Awake quest, deletes the journal entries. If it was the clearing of Hassour that removed it, this time it will stay as I had already cleared that 6th house shrine.

 

I will keep you informed.

This is very interesting. I have never heard of this quest and the fact that the journal entries magical disapear is very interesting. Also, if this took place in Ald'Ruhn, then Hassour is not the proper Sixth House Base to shut down. It would be in a persons basement. You learn this in a House Redoran quest and also kill the priest (a villager of Ald'Ruhn).

Dear me - necromancy on my own thread. Still, I said I would keep you informed.

 

The above quest should become available once the dreamers appear outside the towns and will be the first thing she speaks about if you approach her. In my case I had been cured of Corprus when I spoke to her but it is probably after you get the disease it occurs.

 

I guess it is only available in a 'window' of the quest and that may be why it is hard to come by but it can still be played later on the PC with an addtopic command. The dreamer is in her house from the moment all the others appear.
