Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Task[edit]

Synnolian Tunifus at the Imperial Chapels in Ebonheart will ask you to run another errand to fetch five pieces of muck while delivering four bargain restore health potions to Chaplain Ogrul at Fort Darius in Gnisis. As Tunifus tells you, the best method of traveling to Gnisis is probably taking the boat from Ebonheart to Vivec, then travelling the rest of the way to Gnisis by silt strider. Tunifus will give you the restore health potions and 80 drakes for travelling expenses, and tell you that a farmer there, Abishpulu Shand, has a muckspunge patch near his hut, and the Chaplain has a deal with Shand to gather muck there for free.

Delivering the Potions[edit]

The potions are to be delivered to Chaplain Ogrul in Gnisis (a few Silt Strider journeys away), in the chapel at the bottom level of Fort Darius. Upon delivery, the chaplain offers to teach you one of the following spells:

You can also respectfully decline the chaplain's offer.

Gathering Muck[edit]

The muck can be found in a patch between Abishpulu Shand's hut and the Legion barracks (northwest of Fort Darius). You can also buy the muck or harvest it from another place if you so desire. Muck can be found in muckspunges all over Vvardenfell.

Return to Tunifus with the five pieces of muck to receive a Potion of Cure Common Disease, an Apprentice's Retort, and a copy of The Alchemists Formulary (a book with 10 alchemy recipes).

Notes[edit]

  • If you fail to collect enough muck, Tunifus' disposition towards you drops by ten.
  • If you complete the quest without visiting Chaplain Ogrul you will not be able to deliver the potions to him any more.
  • If you don't have the potions, you can strangely buy them from Chaplain Ogrul himself and then give them to him.

1 Bring Synnolian Tunifus five units of muck for cure common disease potions. A farmer in Gnisis, Abishpulu Shand, has a muckspunge patch right near his hut, and Chaplain Ogrul at Fort Darius has cut a deal with Shand to gather muck there for free. While I'm in the West Gash, look in on Chaplain Ogrul, give him four Restore Health potions, and ask him if he'll teach me a few tricks.
5 Finishes quest☑ I told Synnolian Tunifus I would not be able to bring him the five units of muck he asked for. He was disappointed, and told me to take a day to reflect on my shortcomings, and attempt to amend them before I approach him again for a lay healer mission.
10 I gave Chaplain Ogrul the four Restore Health potions as Synnolian Tunifus requested.
15 Chaplain Ogrul taught me a restoration spell.
20 Chaplain Ogrul offered to teach me a restoration spell, but I declined.
50 Finishes quest☑ I delivered five units of muck to Synnolian Tunifus. He gave me a cure common disease potion, a retort, and a copy of 'The Alchemists Formulary' -- a collection of popular alchemical recipes -- as a reward.
