Treaty of the Armistice

The decoy treaty

The document that cemented Morrowind as part of the Septim Empire, bearing the signatures of both Tiber Septim and Vivec.

In truth, there are two documents proclaiming to be the treaty, with both being contained within the castle of Old Ebonheart, the Ebon Tower. They are inside the Curia's treasure vault, with the decoy treaty being prominently displayed (and valuable in its own right).

To view the true treaty, you will need two daggers found within the castle to unlock the secret room in which it lies. Both daggers are displayed beneath a mural of Tiber Septim and Vivec. The first, an Old Chitin Dagger, can be found in the Curia's Hall of Justice. The second, an Old Imperial Dagger, is present in the Palace's High Chambers. Once you have them, locate the room of the treasure vault with a third mural and the decoy treaty, and activate the two holes on each side of the mural. The mural will descend, revealing the real armistice. While activating this bloodied scrap of Vivec's cloak will activate a spell effect titled Lifeblood of the Armistice, you will be unable to actually take the document.
