Quest-Related Events[edit]

When speaking to her prior to accepting the quest, she appears to be injured.

"Ugh, my head is still swimming from that fall. Don't know if I need an alchemist or a brewer."

When speaking to her as part of the related quest, she says:

"I'm telling them, it's true! But do they listen? I know I've got a few knots on my head the size of a pear, but I didn't imagine a giant Dwarven construct scooping up scrap to cobble onto itself! It's real!"
I've been tasked with destroying your Dwarven colossus. What can you tell me about it?
"Well, I'll be. I thought Hidaver was just telling me they'd look into it to get me to go away.
She told you that it's some sort of colossus? A big lumbering thing with whirling blades that spray fire and steam everywhere? And that it's getting bigger?"
Some of that, yes. Do you know how I can defeat it?
"Sturdy as Dwarven works can be, they aren't invulnerable. I'm certain this strange thing has a weakness. It keeps building upon itself, but who knows if it's very good at it. You might knock one bolt loose and collapse the whole thing to pieces."
Can you tell me about where you found it?
"I think it was Blackreach. Beyond the ruin it was endless caverns lit by glowing fungus and crystals. Like nothing I've ever seen. I didn't wander far, but I found a working Dwarven lift and rode it out of the darkness before anything noticed me."
I'll find your colossus and keep it from growing any larger.
"Maybe I'll head back down to those ruins once you've stopped that mechanical terror. There are bound to be some less dangerous discoveries to be made."

Talking to her after destroying it:

"You smell like burnt oil and metal shavings. Guess you found my colossus and lived to tell the tale."
