With the anchor items acquired, I should ask Azandar what he needs to do with them.
Objective: Talk to Azandar
|
|
We're going to use the anchor items to construct some kind of runeform. But Azandar wants to consult with the Daedra Tem in order to do it. To talk to Tem, we need to reach the ritual circle below the Mages Guild in Riften.
Objective: Reach the Riften Guild Hall Ritual Room
|
|
We're going to use the anchor items to construct some kind of runeform. But Azandar wants to consult with the Daedra Tem in order to do it. To talk to Tem, we need to reach the ritual circle below the Mages Guild in Riften.
Objective: Summon Azandar
|
|
I should wait as Azandar summons Tem, and assist with the ritual if he needs me.
Objective: Wait for Azandar to Summon Tem
|
|
Tem instructed me to place the anchor items into the ritual flame to construct the runeform.
Objective: Place the Anchors in the Ritual Flames
|
|
We've created the runeform needed to destroy the adversary. We still need to find him, so Azandar wants us to return to his sanctum sanctorum to scry for the adversary's location.
Objective: Go to Azandar's Sanctum
|
|
Azandar and I have found his sanctum sealed by the adversary. I need to talk to him about what to do next.
Objective: Talk to Azandar
|
|
The adversary has taken control of Azandar's sanctum and is attempting to use its resources to take Azandar's place. We need to go to Entila's Folly. Within is a side passage we can use to enter the sanctum sanctorum.
Objective: Go to Entila's Folly
|
|
Within Entila's Folly a passageway will allow us to enter the sanctum sanctorum. We need to find the entrance.
Objective: Summon Azandar
Objective: Find the Sanctum Sanctorum Passage
|
|
We need to enter the passageway, which will allow us to reach the sanctum sanctorum and sidestep the magical defenses the adversary has put in place.
Objective: Get to Azandar's Inner Sanctum
|
|
Finally, we're face to face with the adversary and we have the tools we need to destroy him. Time to end this.
Objective: Defeat the Adversary
|
|
The Adversary is weakened and Azandar has cast the Runeform of Unmaking he learned from Tem. I need to trigger the runeform in order to rip the adversary from Azandar's fateline.
Objective: Trigger the Rune of Unmaking
|
|
We used the Runeform of Unmaking to rip the adversary from Azandar's fateline. Now my companion wants me to destroy the Fateweaver Key by burning it out in the magicka font nearby.
Objective: Burn Out the Fateweaver Key
|
|
Azandar seems down. He said he wants some fresh air, and created a portal to get us out of the Sanctum.
Objective: Use Azandar's Portal
|
|
With the Fateweaver Key burned out, Azandar wants me to throw it from the cliff's edge to ensure he's never tempted to restore this powerful relic.
Objective: Throw the Fateweaver Key from the Cliff
|
|
Now that the Fateweaver Key is destroyed, I should talk to Azandar.
Objective: Talk to Azandar
|
|
With the adversary banished and the Fateweaver Key cast into the sea, I should speak to Azandar about our adventure one last time. |

- 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.
