Seeking Disclosure

Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Find the Dragon Elder Scroll.
  2. Find the Blood Elder Scroll.
  3. Bring the Elder Scrolls to Dexion Evicus.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

To complete this quest you will need to have both the Blood and Dragon Elder Scrolls in your possession. To obtain the Blood scroll you will need to journey to the Soul Cairn during Chasing Echoes.

To obtain the Dragon scroll you will need to journey to the Tower of Mzark within Blackreach, which is only accessible by beginning the quest Discerning the Transmundane (via Scroll Scouting).

Once you have the two Elder Scrolls, return to Dexion to find that, because he did not adequately prepare himself before reading Serana's scroll during Prophet, he has gone blind and will not be able to aid you further. He will, however, instruct you on how to read an Elder Scroll yourself, which begins the next quest.

Notes[edit]

  • This quest appears in your journal simply as a reminder of which Elder Scrolls you have obtained; it is not a typical quest.
  • If you joined the Volkihar side, when you return to Volkihar Keep, Dexion may be shackled to the wall, presumably because he is no longer of any use to Lord Harkon.

Bugs[edit]

  • If you fail to pick up the Dragon Elder Scroll in the Tower of Mzark before completing the quest Discerning the Transmundane, when you try to pick up the scroll, it may disappear and not show up in your inventory, preventing you from advancing the quest.
    • On PC You can use the following console commands to continue the quest:

Quest Stages[edit]

Seeking Disclosure (DLC1VQElder)
Stage Finishes Quest Journal Entry
10 In order to locate Auriel's Bow, the Moth Priest, Dexion, indicated that two other Elder Scrolls would be required. The first scroll foretells the interactions of the dragons with the history of Nirn. The second foreshadows the defiance of the gods with the blood of mortals.
Objective 10: Find The Elder Scroll (Dragon)
Objective 20: Find The Elder Scroll (Blood)
40 I've secured both of the Elder Scrolls needed to fully decipher the Tyranny of the Sun and pinpoint Auriel's Bow. I need to return to Fort Dawnguard where Dexion has been waiting to begin his reading.
Objective 30: Bring both Elder Scrolls to Dexion

Objective 30: Bring both Elder Scrolls to Dexion
200 Finishes quest☑ After bringing the Elder Scrolls to Dexion, a disturbing development has arisen. When reading the first scroll in front of Harkon's court, he wasn't able to fully prepare himself and he's become blind. It's now up to me to bring all three Elder Scrolls to the Ancestor Glade where I can supposedly unearth an ancient method of reading them myself.

  • The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 1, 20, 25, 30.
Notes
  • Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, 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.
  • If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
  • On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage DLC1VQElder stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest DLC1VQElder.
