The Brothers of Strife arise
Sorcerer Nilae sent me into a deep vision with the help of an ancient ritual site. In this vision of the past, I should be able to interact with Balreth and Sadal. Then I can learn how the Brothers of Strife were born.


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. In the vision of the past, speak with Sorcerer Nilae.
  2. Gather some hearts of the Nedic enemies.
  3. Speak to Turoni.
  4. Collect Essence of Wrath and Essence of Fire.
  5. Speak to both Sadal and Balreth.
  6. Begin the ritual and witness the transformation.
  7. Speak to Sorcerer Vunal.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Sorcerer Nilae will brief you on the situation.

"Blood for blood, their violence shall be repaid.
Soldier, are you ready to begin?"
What needs to be done?
"Kill the Nede troops. Make the river run red with their blood. Take their hearts as trophies. Once you've decimated the front lines, the Nede chieftain must pay.
We, the Chimer, have paid enough. Now it is the enemy's turn."
I need to kill one of their leaders?
"Just so. The Nedes' warchief is named Ornskar. Kill her and cut out her heart. When you have these sacrifices in hand, head to the ritual alter in the center of the temple.
We'll be waiting."
I'll do as you say, Sorcerer.

This task is straightforward. Kill the soldiers, kill the warchief, go to the altar.

Next you must speak to Sorcerer Turoni.

"Honor to you, soldier. I'll take the bloody offerings and ready them for the ritual.
Are you prepared for the next step?"
Yes. What do I do next?
"Kill the Daedra at the nearby ruins. Take what we need from them."
I'll do as you ask.

Head over to the pavilions where Brimstone and Hatewarden are to be summoned, defeat them, and bring their essences back to the sorcerers at the ritual altar.

After you bring back the essence, you will need to speak with Legate Sadal.

"I don't know if I can go through with this, soldier.
These sorcerers ask much. Everything, in fact."
What have they told you?
"They've created a spell to fill us with raw elemental power, greater than our enemies can stand—if it works.
What they can't say is what happens to us. Will my brother and I still remain or will we be nothing but beasts of destruction?"
Are you ready for this?
"Yes. I must be.
I wonder what the lens of history will show when our people look back on this day? Will my brother and I be remembered as the saviors of our race? Or will we be known as monsters and horrors?"
Good luck, Sadal.

Next, speak to General Balreth.

"Sadal and I are ready to make the sacrifice."
What do you need me to do?
"We have only a few moments. The Nedes are about to break the line. But Sadal and I will save our people and be remembered forever!
Help the sorceress complete the ritual. Pray at the braizer, soldier. Pray for the destruction of our enemies."
I'll see it done.

Your final objective is to pray at the brazier so that the ritual can proceed. The brothers will be engulfed in flame, and rise from the ashes as the Brothers of Strife; imposing juggernauts of fire and fury. You will be returned to the present day before you can witness the Nedes' destruction.

Speak with Sorcerer Vunal about what you've witnessed, and accept your reward for aiding him in his research.

"You return. What did you learn?"
I witnessed the birth of the Brothers. They used Daedric essence and Nede blood in a ritual.
"Nede blood! I should have seen this! The Chimer thought they were gods. Backed into a corner, they turned to dark rituals.
This was dangerous magic. I must contemplate this. Still, I am quite grateful that you did not fail."

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
