Mephala (Quest)

Background
In order to get Mephala to speak with the Hero they must give an offering of Nightshade between midnight and dawn and be at level 15.

Mephala's Shrine
Go to Mephala's Shrine located north east of Roxey Inn and speak to the priest who runs the shrine, Dredena Hlavel. She will tell the Hero will have to offer Nightshade between midnight and dawn or Mephala will not speak to them.

Once gathered Nightshade and being at level 15, walk up to Mephala to offer them and she will speak. She talks about Bleaker's Way, a quiet town with its Dunmer and Nord villagers living together peacefully, Mephala wishes that changed.

She wants the Hero to murder the heads of both families and leave evidence that implicates the other.

Bleaker's Way
Head to the village, it's located not far from the shrine. First thing is to gather the evidence to implicate the other family in each murder. Locate the Nivan Dalvilu's house, sneak in and look for the Dalvilu Ceremonial Dagger. It is on a small table to the right hand side as they enter the house.

From Hrol Ulfgar's house collect the Ulfgar Family Ring. It is on a table, near the stairs on the second floor, lying next to a book. When they have collected these two pieces of evidence, go upstairs (where he sleeps) and kill Hrol Ulfgar. He is the head of the Ulfgar family, and once they have killed him be sure to plant the Dalvilu Ceremonial Dagger on his corpse by searching his body and adding the dagger.

Then go and kill Nivan Dalvilu, the Dalvilu family leader, and simply plant the Ulfgar Family Ring on his corpse to complete your evidence planting.

Once they have implicated both families, go outside and inform any villager that they've seen the family heads attack each other. Each family attacks the other, and the quaint little village turns into a battle ground.

At this point, the Hero can perhaps even help their favorite family to victory or just stand and watch the battle.

Return to Mephala and she will be pleased by the outcome and will reward the Hero with the Ebony Blade.

Trivia

 * Please keep in mind that it has been said that if everyone dies one will be unable to complete the quest, so it might be best to see Mephala for the reward and then return to slaughter everyone who is left.
 * If one enter Bleaker's Way before taking this quest one may accidently cause this quest to fail prematurely. If so, Mephala will refuse to speak with the Hero at all.
