The Guardian of the Water

The Guardian of the Water is one of three ancient, extinct beings known as the Ehlnofey, the Earth's Bones. The group are known as the Guardians of the Wyrd Tree, and have been allied with Wyress Ileana ever since they discovered the tree. These Ehlnofey appear to represent three classical elements—Water, Earth, and Air.

They have been imprisoned by the Reachmage, Angof the Gravesinger, and ask your for your aid in setting them free.

Champion of the Guardians[edit]

The four wyresses focus beams of magicka at you. Once done, the three elemental guardians appear.

Guardian of the Earth: "At last, the chains of corruption fall away! We are free of Angof's hold!"
Guardian of the Air: "Angof will pay for this insult!"
Guardian of the Water: "Speak, champion of the guardians. We are in your debt."

Speak to her:

"We are free! This is how it should be."
You don't sound surprised.
"We are earth's bones. We endure. We knew someone would come to set us free. We just didn't know when it would happen or who it would be.
It seems right that you were the one. You are mortal, but also not mortal. Angof has much to fear from you."

To the Wyrd Tree[edit]

"Angof's evil flows deeper than the wellspring of this land. This must end quickly."
How do we finish this?
"There is more work for you, champion. Go to the Wyrd Tree and find Wyress Gwen.
We protected her from Angof's slaves, but she cannot save the Wyrd Tree. That task belongs to another. Go and learn what must be done."
I'll find Wyress Gwen.

Reclaiming the Elements[edit]

Destroy the corrupted vine and the element will appear:

"This pollution is almost too much for me to bear. Help us restore balance to the Wyrd Tree."
What should I do?
"Destroy the corrupting spirit and then we can cleanse this place. Listen to my words. I shall offer what aid I can."

A powerful wraith will suddenly appear:

Guardian of the Water: "Stay close and let my power flow over you."
Corruption of Water: "These stones belong to Angof now!"

Whenever the Corruption of Air casts (?), the guardian will call you into her protective spell:

Guardian of the Water: "The tide of battle turns! To my side, now!"

Once the corruption is defeated:

Guardian of the Water: "It is defeated."

Purifying the Wyrd Tree[edit]

As you enter the Heart of the Wyrd Tree, you'll hear:

Guardian of the Water: "Destroy this foulness! Set the Wyrd Tree free!"
