moved[edit]

*Tooth-in-the-sea is not influenced by a changed timescale. He will always wait 6 minutes before deeming you worthy.

i moved this because i can't figure out what it means and if it needs veracation--GUM!!! 16:13, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

I assume it's talking about the "set timescale" Console command, but it's not worth mentioning anyway to be honest. rpeh •TCE 16:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Possible Bug/Weirdness[edit]

At first, I could not for the life of me get Tooth-in-the-Sea to take about Training. He always said the line about meeting in his favorite spot, even when speaking underwater during the morning. Even if I use console commands to advance the quest artificially, the issue persisted. Then I discovered by accident that it worked if I went to him after 1 pm first, and then came back the next morning.
For curiosity's sake, I reloaded and waited over 24 hours until another morning, and the same problem. Then I went to him after 1 pm, and he said it was too late. Then I waited until 8 am the next morning, at which he said again to meet at his favorite spot. I waited one more hour, and the quest progressed to the test.
It may also be worthy to note that my quest progression skipped stage 20.

Talking directly to Tooth-in-the-Sea worked for me[edit]

In my game, I haven't been using Alteration much, so I haven't even tried to start this quest by talking to Abhuki or Athragar. I was swimming around in the Niben one night and saw Tooth-in-the-Sea asleep at camp. I went up on the shore, talked to him (waking him up), and he had "training" as a dialogue option. I selected that option, and he immediately gave me the "A fellow Argonian..." dialogue noted on the main page. When he finished speaking, I got the quest update that he had agreed to train me.

My character is Argonian, so it doesn't surprise me that he didn't require me to do the test. It just seems odd to me that he agreed to train me without having the referral first. 73.3.58.200 08:22, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
