Confront the King

Overview
Faction: Mages Guild Quest giver: Hannibal Traven at the Imperial City Arcane University Prerequisites: Reward:

Background Information
Hannibal Traven gives you your final task of killing Mannimarco, the King of Worms.

Quest Details
Traven sacrifices himself and puts his own soul into the Colossal Black Soul Gem. Search his body and take his key and the Soul Gem. Head to Echo Cave, where the King of Worms can be found.

Outside the cave, a guard will be waiting. He gives a lovely speech and proceeds to attack you. Kill him, take his key and enter the cave. Work your way through the cave and the many Necromancer's until you get to the bottom level where you encounter Mannimarco. He also has a speech for you, and then attacks you. Kill him and the job is done. He has a nice Staff that reanimates the dead, which is pretty useful.

Head back to the University, to get promoted to Arch-Mage and leader of the Guild. You will receive a new robe/hood and other bonuses. You can use the offices/quarters as your own. You can also enlist an Apprentice (there's a few that wander the University) to follow you and fight. There's also a resupply crate, which multiplies any ingredient you put in it (in 24 hours).

And that's the last quest of the Mage's Guild.
