Abolitionists

 * "Abolitionists are those dedicated to the abolition of slavery in Morrowind."
 * "Aiding an escaping slave is theft, and a crime, since slaves are property in Morrowind."
 * "I've heard of a secret organization called the Twin Lamps. It helps runaway slaves escape. It's against the law to aid runaway slaves. But I think slavery is wrong, and I can understand why these Abolitionists would be willing to break the law."
 * "It's the law of Morrowind. Slavery is legal. The Empire doesn't like it, but the Emperor signed the Armistice, and that made it legal for the Dunmer to retain their ancient laws and customs. Now, there's some Abolitionists who say, "To hell with the law... slavery is wrong." I'm not saying I disagree, in theory. But it's the law."
 * "The Twin Lamps is a secret, illegal organization dedicated to the abolition of slavery, and in particular to aiding runaway slaves escape to freedom."
 * "These outlanders won't be happy until slavery is outlawed. It's our right to have slaves, by law and custom, and it's none of their damn business."

acrobatics

 * "The acrobatics discipline is the ability to jump long distances and to avoid damage when falling great distances."

affairs of honor

 * "Native Dunmer and Imperials alike recognize a noble's obligation to answer a challenge of honor."
 * "A challenge of honor is a public declaration of a scandal against a private party. Only nobles fight duels, and the higher the rank, the stronger the obligation."
 * "Law and custom despises dishonorable duelists. If the victim was bullied, intimidated, or goaded by a stronger party with suspect motives, magistrates often convict the stronger party of foul murder."

Agrippina Herrenia

 * "She's a clothier in the Foreign Quarter; I think her shop is in the Canalworks. Nice merchandise, actually."
 * "You can find Agrippina Herrenia's store here in Vivec. She is located in the Foreign Quarter Canalworks, which can be accessed through the Foreign Quarter Lower Waistworks. Her selection of clothing is excellent."

Aharasaplit camp

 * "Aharasaplit camp is an outcast Ashlander camp on a beach on the southwest coast of Sheogorad island. The camp lies southwest of Dagon Fel village -- a variety of paths lead near the site."

Ahemmusa camp

 * "Ahemmusa camp is on the northeast, the farthest tip of Vvardenfell island, north from Tel Mora, near old Daedric ruins of Ald Daedroth."
 * "The Ashlander Ahemmusa tribe has a permanent settlement at Ahemmusa camp on a rocky promontory at the northeastern tip of the Vvardenfell mainland in the Azura's Coast region."
 * "The Ahemmusa are the Ashlanders of northeast Vvardenfell. Here. Let me mark it on your map. The nearest settlement is Tel Mora. You can get a ship from Sadrith Mora to Tel Mora. In Tel Mora, ask a local for directions."
 * "Here. Let me mark it on your map. From Tel Mora, cross the bay west to the mainland, then follow the coast north as far as you can go. Ahemmusa Camp is on the most northeastern point of Vvardenfell island. You'll need to be able to fly or water-walk, but be a very good swimmer. You can't miss the camp. You'll be looking for eight to ten round shelters called 'yurts.'"

Airan's Teeth

 * "Airan's Teeth are two stone spikes at the mouth of Valley of the Wind. The Valley of the Wind runs south from the sea in the northeast of Vvardenfell, east of Dwemer Bthuand, east of Daedric Zergonipal. We stay away from the valley; the winds howl, and the spirits are always awake. Dareleth Ancestral Tomb is in this valley. It is foolish to disturb the spirits in their resting place."

Akatosh

 * "Akatosh is the ultimate God of the Cyrodilic Empire, where he embodies the qualities of endurance, invincibility, and everlasting legitimacy."
 * "Akatosh is generally considered to be the first of the Gods to form in the Beginning Place; after his establishment, other spirits found the process of being easier and the various pantheons of the world emerged."
 * "Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time, is the chief deity of the Nine Divines."

alchemy

 * "The alchemy discipline is the processing and refinement of ingredients and materials through arcane processes to elicit and preserve their subtle, hidden magical effects in alchemical potions. Alchemical potions can provide a broad spectrum of long-lasting magical effects, from healing and curing disease to water-walking, magical shields, and fortification of bodily attributes."

Ald Daedroth

 * "Ald Daedroth is an abandoned Daedric site on an island north along the coast, in the straits between Vvardenfell and Sheogorad island. I say 'abandoned', but I've heard worshippers have rededicated the old temple there. And I also heard the Ordinators were hiring a ship and planning to burn them out. The island is out of sight of the mainland, and not easy to find."
 * "Ald Daedroth is a very impressive Daedric ruin in the Sheogorad region of northeast Vvardenfell. The site itself is on a small island between Vvardenfell and Sheogorad island to the north. Tel Mora is the closest settlement. From there you'll have to fly or water-walk; Ald Daedroth is long abandoned, and there's no boat service."

Ald Redaynia

 * "Ald Redaynia is the site of an ancient ruined wizard's tower on the northern coast of Vvardenfell, on the western tip of a large island west of Sheogorad."

Ald Sotha

 * "Though exotic and picturesque, Ald Sotha is a dangerous site, haunted by old magics, dark cultists, and their Daedric summonings, and not recommended for sightseers."
 * "Ald Sotha is a large Daedric ruin in the southern Ascadian Isles region, within sight of Vivec City to the east."
 * "Ald Sotha is a splendid Daedric ruin within sight of Vivec City. Though exotic and picturesque, it is a dangerous site, haunted by old magics, dark cultists, and their Daedric summonings, and not recommended for sightseers."

Ald Velothi

 * "It's been quiet. I think everyone is concerned those outcast ashlanders will kidnap more people. Didn't you hear? They took Madura Seran! She was but a simple pilgrim. Someone needs to rescue her."
 * "It's a simple place. Theldyn Virith is the local Redoran sheriff lives at the outpost, and there's a Redoran smith and trader as well, and a small Temple shrine in the outpost basement."
 * "Ald Velothi is a tiny fishing village on the northern coast of the West Gash."
 * "People seem at ease now that Madura Seran has returned."

Ald'ruhn

 * "Ald'ruhn is the district seat of House Redoran, and a large settlement. The Redoran Council chambers are located inside the shell of an ancient extinct giant crab. Tracks lead north to Maar Gan and Gnisis villages and south to Balmora."

Aldmeri

 * "Aldmeri -- the Imperial usage is 'Elves' -- are long-lived, culturally conservative humanoids distinct from Tamriel's "manish" races of the north and "beast peoples" races of the southeast. By contrast with the manish tribes, Elven cultures and social institutions are stable and persistent; Elven nations are neither economically expansive nor militarily adventurous."
 * Continue "Elves are conditionally fertile -- that is, they only conceive when population pressure is low -- so expanding populations do not force them to explore or war with neighbors. The arts, literature, sorceries, technology and theology that have flourished within ancient Elven cultures have profoundly shaped the development of the Empire's manish and beast races."

Aldmeris

 * "Aldmeris is the original Elvish language, still spoken as a first language among isolated Elven communities, and spoken and written by all educated Elves, and the language of the Elven arts. The root '-mer' is analogous with the root '-man' or '-men' in human language; thus, the Elves are mer as Humans are men."

Almalexia

 * "Almalexia is Healing Mother, the source of compassion and sympathy, and protector of the poor and weak."
 * "Almalexia was the virtuous wife of Lord Nerevar, and later the Consort of Lord Vivec."
 * "Blessed Almalexia the Warden is one of the three Immortals God-Kings of Morrowind, a Pillar of the Tribunal, and the patron of Healers and Teachers."

almoners

 * "Almoners gather alms from members and friends of the faith. We depend on donations to fund most of our good works. Almoners who are successful at bringing in generous donations may rise in the ranks of Imperial cult service. If you are interested, speak to Iulus Truptor at the Imperial Chapels in Ebonheart."

alteration

 * "The alteration discipline is the mastery of the spell effects of the College of Alteration. The alteration spells involve manipulation of the physical world and its natural properties. Alteration effects include water breathing and walking, jumping, levitating, opening locks, and shield barriers against physical damage."

Altmer

 * "Altmer are the tall, light-skinned Elves of the West. They were once like us, but they became soft and foolish. They abandoned their ancestors and put their faith in big buildings and sorcery. The greatfathers of our greatfathers were kin of the Altmer, but the Prophet Veloth led us out of the West and brought us here so our rites and customs could remain pure."
 * "Altmer are the light-skinned, tall Elven peoples of the Summerset Isles. 'High' is taken to mean variously 'tall,' 'proud,' and 'culturally snobbish.' In the Empire, 'High Elves' is the common usage. They consider themselves the most civilized culture of Tamriel, and, in truth, the common tongue of the Empire, Tamrielic, is based on their speech and writing, and most of the Empire's arts, crafts, and sciences are derived from High Elven traditions."
 * "We Altmer are proud, wise, and beautiful. The Empire is built on the arts, crafts, and sciences of the High Elves. Our pure blood protects us from disease, and makes us superior spellcrafters."
 * "The Altmer are proud, conceited, and decadent. Their clothes, manners, arts, and crafts are highly refined, but they are godless and spiritually empty. They content themselves with reliving the aged glories of their martial traditions and their mastery of sorcery and enchantment. Their achievements are admirable, but their culture no longer serves any vital purpose."

ancestors

 * "Recently dead spirits know us well, and do not quickly forget their living kin; they are weak, but quick to guide and protect us."
 * "The Dunmer believe the spirits of the dead live on in our world. They can know and affect the future, and can speak with other spirits, and work great magic, so the Dunmer honor and gift them, and ask them for aid and protection. Strong spirits of heroes and wise women preserve the wisdom and honor of the race. The worst spirits are evil and harmful, called ghosts, and devils, and daemons. The oldest and greatest ancestor spirits are the Daedra. They are powerful, but dangerous, and hard to understand."
 * "The oldest of our ancestor spirits we call the Daedra; though they are powerful and cunning, their hearts and minds have grown distant and strange, and the bad Daedra are dangerous."
 * "The spirits of our dead live on in our world. They can know and affect the future, and can speak with other spirits, and work great magic, so we honor and gift them, and show them love, and ask them to help us."
 * "The strongest of us live long after death, so that we may guide and protect our children and kinsmen; we speak of such strong spirits as Heroes and Wise Women in our songs, sung so we may not forget their wisdoms and gifts."
 * "The worst of us live long after death, and we beg our kinder ancestors to protect us from the evil ones we call Ghosts, and Devils, and Daemons."

ancestral burial tombs

 * "There are a couple of them near this town. There's Ginith to the northwest and Rethandus to the northeast. There may be others, but I don't know where."

Apelles Matius

 * "He's recently arrived from Cyrodiil. You'll likely find him inspecting the grounds at Ebonheart."

Arena

 * "The Arena Compound lies between the Redoran compound on the west and the Telvanni compound on the east. The Arena is the site of public entertainments and combat sports. The comfortable domed Arena has seating for hundreds of spectators; beneath the Arena are dressing and storage rooms for entertainers and training rooms and animal pens for the combat competitors."

Argonian

 * "Argonians are cunning, savage beasts incapable of enlightenment. They are blasphemous travesties of nature, with unspeakable foulness in their private and family urges. When guided by a stern hand, they can be trained as passable servants and slaves. By Imperial law, free Argonians have the rights of citizens, but no law can ever make an Argonian human."
 * "Argonians are the savage half-men of the southern marshes. Our peoples used to keep them as slaves, but they are useless. The settled people still keep them as slaves to grub in the soil. They are dirty and wicked, and we should drive them all back into the swamps they came from."
 * "The Argonians of Black Marsh call themselves the 'People of the Root'. They are equally at home on land or in water, and are magically gifted. Persecuted and enslaved by other races, they are cautious and secretive. Little is known of their homeland or native culture, and their alien physiology and customs are not well understood by scholars."
 * "We are the People of the Root, called 'Argonians' by the warmbloods. We go where we will, wet or dry, and the currents of blood magic run swift in our veins. In our native land, we hunt to live, masters of the marshes. Hunted and enslaved by softskinned enemies, we snare and slay them by stealth, spell, and steel."

Argonian neighbors

 * "Native Dunmer regard Argonians as animals fit for slavery. Dunmer have always enslaved Argonians. The Empire protects Argonian human rights, but does not outlaw slavery in Morrowind."

Argonians

 * "Argonians are cunning, savage beasts incapable of enlightenment. They are blasphemous travesties of nature, with unspeakable foulness in their private and family urges. They are fit only for service, and only when guided by a stern hand can they avoid abomination."

Arkay

 * "Arkay, God of the Cycle of Life and Death, is the deity associated with burials and funeral rites, and is responsible for the progression of the seasons. His priests are staunch opponents of necromancy and all forms of the undead."

armorer

 * "The armorer discipline is the maintenance of weapons and armor at top efficiency. Worn weapons do less damage. Worn armor protects less against attacks. As wear increases, the diminishing effectiveness of weapons and armor is dramatic."

Arvel family

 * "Well, there are two Arvel families. The head of the family, Rovone Arvel lives in Arvel Manor in the Ascadian Isles. Another branch of the family lives in Ald Velothi."

To the west lies Pelagiad and Balmora, to the north the ashlands of Bal Ur, and to the east the stinking smokes and lava pools of Molag Amur."
 * "The Ascadian Isles is the lush, green, well-watered lowlands in the south where most of Vvardenfell's agriculture is found. The area includes Pelagiad, Suran, Vivec City, and Ald Sotha along with the inland lakes and waterways of the Ascadian Isles proper. The urban areas of Vivec and Ebonheart of the southern coast are densely populated; the inland Ascadian Isles are dotted with small farms and large plantations. The climate is temperate and comfortable, with moderate rainfall."

Ashkhan Kaushad

He is a very curious man, always speaking with traders and travelers about the news of the world. Go ahead. Our great chief does not stand on ceremony. You may enter his yurt, if you are clean and courteous."

Ashlander challenges

Be particularly careful about ashkhans -- tribal chiefs -- and wise women -- tribal seers and counselors. Some are welcoming, some are hostile. Be courteous, and leave if requested. If offended, they may attack."

Ashlander culture

 * "The Ashlander culture is an anachronistic survival of the ancestor-worshipping tribal culture that evolved into the theocratic Great House culture of the native Dunmer. The Ashlanders perversely prefer the impoverished physical culture and subsistence economy of the Ashland nomadic herder-hunter, and their ancestor worship is shamanistic and primitive by Dunmer and Imperial standards."
 * Conitnue "The Velothi are people of Ashlander stock who have abandoned nomadic life and settled among the native Dunmer; the Velothi are despised by their Ashlander cousins as weak and soft, while the Dunmer look down upon the Velothi as an insignificant underclass."

 * "When coming first among strangers, a thoughtful gift is a sign to Ashlanders that you are cautious, and considerate, and aware of the other's wants and needs."
 * "Thoughtful gifts are often exchanged between Ashlanders traders and travelers. Among friends, it is a private thing, and subtle, with great risks, for the test of the gift is how well it is tailored to the receiver."

Among friends, it is a private thing, and subtle, with great risks, for the test of the gift is how well it is tailored to the receiver."

Ashlander nomadic camps

 * "Ashlander nomadic camps have portable huts of hides stretched on chitin frames. These huts can be quickly dismantled and packed atop a guar when moving to new grazing and hunting grounds. The khan's hut is simply a larger, more elaborate version of a family hut."

Ashlanders

 * "Ashlanders are the nomadic Dunmer barbarians of the Morrowind wastelands. They live in camps of small, mobile huts, herding guar and hunting wildlife for meat and hides."
 * "By tradition, Ashlanders claim the right to raid other Ashlander tribes -- and non-Ashlander settlements -- for booty and slaves."
 * "The Ashlanders worship their ancestors. Ashlander tribes are led by their ashkhan war chiefs, and guided by the wisdom and prophecies of their wise women."

By tradition, the Ashlanders claim the right to raid settlements and other tribes for booty and slaves. The Ashlanders worship their ancestors, and are led by their ashkhan war chiefs, counseled by the arcane wisdom and prophecies of their wise women. If you plan to visit them, you should know something of Ashlander customs."
 * "We are the Ahemmusa Ashlanders. We are people of peace, gentle people. We herd our guar and trouble no one. But things are very bad for us now. Very bad. Soul sickness, blight storms, blight-sick animals, blight monsters, come down from Red Mountain, kill our men, eat our herds, bring disease and famine. We have no ashkhan, and our gulakhans are feeble warriors. Things are very bad for us."

Ashlanders hate foreigners

 * "Ashlanders think it shameful to attack unarmed persons, but they will kill without hesitation an armed person who offends them or their clan laws."
 * "No Ashlander is fool enough to make war against the Empire. However, if such a war might be won, many Ashlanders might cheerfully give their lives to win such a war."

Ashlanders think it shameful to attack unarmed persons, but they will kill without hesitation an armed person who offends them or their clan laws. No Ashlander is fool enough to make war against the Empire. However, if such a war might be won, many Ashlanders might cheerfully give their lives to win such a war."

Ashlanders in war

 * "Ashlanders seldom make war like the city people do. We raid other tribes, to prove we are strong, and to make us rich and respected. Our champions challenge one another for duels of sport and honor; it is fitting that warriors should decide these things, not hunters or herders. But when we make war as a tribe, hunters and herders fight beside champions and ashkhans with spear and bow. Such wars are cruel, for we are few, and the lives of our people are too dear to waste."

Ashlands

 * "The Ashlands are the dry wastelands on the lower slopes of Red Mountain."
 * "The Ashlands extend to the Sea of Ghosts to the north, and everywhere else they make a wide strip between the blighted Red Mountain region and other geographic regions."

The Ashlands extend to the Sea of Ghosts to the north, and elsewhere form a wide margin between the blighted Red Mountain region and other geographic regions.

It rains rarely, and suffers frequent ash storms."

athletics

 * "The athletics discipline is training and conditioning for running and swimming, moving short and long distances over land with speed and efficiency, and conserving breath while swimming swiftly underwater."

Aundae

 * "We are the most blessed of all of the cursed. In addition to the powers all vampires possess, our dark powers are of the mind, where other, weaker clans are gifted more physically. Our path through the darkness relies on magic, and at this, we are truly gifted."
 * "Weak, pathetic creatures. They use their powerful magic as a crutch, never experiencing the joy the dark gift brings--the sheer physical power we are given."
 * "A dark brotherhood of vampiric mages. I fear, though, that their powerful minds may be tainted by madness. Such is the price for the gift they've been given."

Bad Daedra

 * "The Temple teaches that the Three Good Daedra -- the Anticipations, Boethiah, Azura, and Mephala -- recognized the Divinity of the Tribunal and made homage to them. But the Rebel Daedra -- the Dark Daedra, Molag Bal, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Mehrunes Dagon -- in their arrogance and pride, refused to keep faith with the Tribunal. These Rebel Daedra thus became the Four Corners of the House of Troubles, and they continue to tempt the unwary into heresy and dark worship."

 * "The Bitter Coast is also called 'the Smuggler's Coast'. Hidden coves and islands are handy for smugglers, and the frequent rain and fog hides small boats from Excise cutters."
 * "The salt marshes and hot swamps of Bitter Coast are uninhabited, with the only settlements found at the good harbors of Gnaar Mok, Hla Oad, and Seyda Neen."
 * "The western coast of Vvardenfell from Seyda Neen north to Gnaar Mok is called the Bitter Coast."
 * "The western coast of Vvardenfell from Seyda Neen north to Gnaar Mok is called the Bitter Coast. The salt marshes and humid swamps of this region are uninhabited, with the only settlements found at the good harbors of Gnaar Mok, Hla Oad, and Seyda Neen. Also called 'the Smuggler's Coast', the region's secluded coves and islands provide refuge for criminal trade, and the frequent rain and fog hides small boats from Excise cutters."

Bitter Coast region

 * "The Bitter Coast is named for the salt marshes and swamps along the southwest coast. The water is bitter, and so is life, generally. It's mostly uninhabited wilderness from Seyda Neen in the south all the way north to the West Gash and the Sea of Ghosts. Hla Oad is a fishing settlement on the mainland near the mouth of the Odai River; there's a fair track along the river inland to Balmora. Gnaar Mok is a fishing village on an island farther north, but both places are small, isolated, and poor."

Black Marsh

 * "Most of the native Argonian population of Black Marsh is confined to the great inland waterways and impenetrable swamps of the southern interior. There are few roads here, and most travel is by boat. The coasts and the northwestern upland forests are largely uninhabited. For ages the Dunmer have raided Black Marsh for slaves; though the Empire has made this illegal, the practice persists, and Dunmer and Argonians have a long-standing and bitter hatred for one another."

Blades

 * "The Blades are the Emperor's spies. They're everywhere, but no one knows who they are."
 * "The Blades is an prestigious service order for citizens demonstrating the greatest loyalty to the Emperor. To be named to the Blades by the Emperor is a great honor, and publicly acknowledged members serve openly in noble courts and diplomatic posts. Privately, many Blades members act as the Empire's intelligence agency. Such agents conceal themselves with secret identities, operating in disguise as couriers, observers, and spies throughout the Empire."

blessings

 * "Imperial cult members, or reverent, respectful guests, may make offerings at shrines and receive in return a blessing. Common blessings are healing, cure common or blight disease, resistance to common or blight disease, cure poison, and other health benefits. More extraordinary blessings are reserved for the advanced ranks of the faithful. No offering need be made by these pious souls; benefits may include long-term fortification of attributes and abilities."
 * "Most shrines provide common blessings like healing, cure common or cure blight disease, and cure poison."
 * "Imperial cult members and reverent guests may make offerings at altars and receive in return a blessing."
 * "In addition to common blessings, most shrines provide special blessings of the saints that fortify attributes and abilities for long durations."
 * "Temple faithful and reverent guests may make offerings at shrines and receive in return a blessing."

blight disease

 * "Lord Dagoth has sent the blight to destroy the foreigners, and to chasten those Dunmer who bend to foreign will. Those who oppose Lord Dagoth shall wither and die, while those who join Lord Dagoth shall be healed and strengthened, filled with the power and glory of Red Mountain, and inspired by the dreams of Dagoth Ur."
 * "Ridding a colony of blight is expensive and dangerous, because of the fierce attacks of sick kwama foragers and warriors, and the risk of spreading disease."
 * "An diseased kwama mine is a great hardship for the whole mining community. Blighted eggs are inedible, and miners catch blight diseases."
 * "Only egg miners worry about that sort of stuff. Not us. Rock doesn't get blighted."
 * "Kwama foragers range far from their homes, deep into the ashlands as far as the Ghostfence. Foragers caught in blight storms become infected, and return and infect their queen and the whole colony."
 * "Kwama foragers range far from their home colonies, deep into the ashlands as far as the Ghostfence. Foragers exposed to blight storms may become infected, and may return and infect their queen and the whole colony. An infested kwama mine is a great hardship for the mining community; blighted eggs are inedible, and miners catch blight diseases. Ridding a colony of blight is expensive and dangerous, because of the aggressive behavior of sick kwama foragers and warriors, and the risk of spreading disease."

blight diseases

 * "Blight diseases resist common herbal and magical treatments, and are of two kinds: wasting diseases which attack one or more of an organism's systems, and abnormal growth diseases, which distort the organism's functions and structures. Natives avoid exposure to the Blight, and wear special protective garments when traveling in Blight-prone regions."
 * "You get blight diseases by fighting with diseased creatures. Normal creatures that get caught in blight storms can turn into ugly monsters."
 * "Blight diseases can't be cured by cure common disease spells or potions. You need special cure blight disease potions or spells."

blight monsters

 * "The 'corprus men,' they crawl from under the mountain. They prey in the night like demons. They follow the blight storms, walk in the storms, bring death, disease. Hunters won't hunt, herders won't herd. Scared to go out on the land. Ahemmusa are people of peace, not of war. We fight, we die; we don't fight, we die. We must have help, or there will be nothing left."

blight storms

 * "Red dust from Red Mountain. Grass dies, kwama and guar go mad, bite and fight. Hunters cannot find food. Herders get sick, watch the herds die. Lands to the west belong to Urshilaku. Lands to the south belong to Zainab. And to the north? Water and monsters. No safe haven for the Ahemmusa."

blight-sick animals

 * "Our herds are sick. And the game animals -- kagouti, alit -- they grow sick, too. When blight storms come, animals walk in the storms. They get sick, get the red taint. Then they go crazy, bite and fight, go mad, kill everything. Without the herds, without the game, we must starve."

block

 * "The block discipline is the skill of parrying melee attacks with shields. A successful block reduces damage."

blunt Weapon

 * "The blunt weapon discipline is the study and mastery of the club, staff, mace, and warhammer weapons styles. To use any style of weapon effectively, the user must be trained, conditioned, and skilled in its use."

Bologra

 * "Optio Bologra is the Camp Prefect of the Deathshead Legion Garrison at Gnisis. He's a tough and violent orc, not clever or polished, but nonetheless an effective and respected officer."

Boots of the Apostle

 * "I think I can help you with the Oracle's prophecy. An ancient Dunmer stronghold called Berandas lies south of the village of Gnisis in the West Gash region. Note also the reference to 'silent caverns'. Berandas is distinctive among Dunmer stronghold, in that extensive caverns lie beneath the centuries-old architectural ruins. I feel sure Berandas is the site you seek."
 * "The place-name reference in the Oracle's prophecy is obvious. An ancient Dunmer stronghold called Berandas lies south of the village of Gnisis in the West Gash region. I would also not be surprised to find that the reference to "wings of twilight" designates the guardians of the treasure you seek. Winged twilights are Daedric servants of the Daedra Lord Azura, one of the Anticipations worshiped in the Tribunal Temple."
 * "So you found the legendary boots. Congratulations. I don't know much about them, but I'm sure you should be very proud."
 * "You found the boots? You must tell me all about it...."

Bosmer

 * "The Bosmer are foreigners, outlanders. They live in trees and eat nothing but meat. We have no forests here. Why don't they go back where they came from?"
 * "We're small, sharp, and smart. We love wild creatures, wild beauty, and wild life, unlike our dull cousins. We are not very polite, but don't have to be, since we shoot straight and run like the wind."
 * "The Bosmer are the clanfolk of the Western Valenwood forests. In the Empire, they are called "Wood Elves," but they call themselves the Bosmer, or the 'Tree-Sap' people. They scorn pretense and formality, preferring a romantic, simple existence in harmony with the wild beauty of nature. They are nimble and quick in body and wit, and there are no finer archers in all of Tamriel."
 * "The Bosmer are a light, careless, insubstantial people. They are barely civilized barbarians, living in unheated communal huts in the middle of empty forest wastelands. They are marvelous archers and cunning hunters, but they are worthless as hirelings, having no concept of contract, obligation, or loyalty. They are passionate and spiritually alive, but befuddled by primitive superstitions and shamanistic spirit worship."

Breton

 * "Bretons are outlanders, foreigners, Westerners. They don't belong here. They should go back where they came from."
 * "Bretons are arrogant, undisciplined, subject to wild swings of emotion. They make strong but unreliable wizards and mercenaries. They are occasionally independent and creative thinkers, but are faithless and unreliable servants and hirelings."
 * "We Bretons are natural magicians, and born with a high resistance to destructive and dominating spells. Many great sorcerers have come from our home province of High Rock."
 * "Passionate and eccentric, poetic and flamboyant, intelligent and willful, Bretons feel an inborn, instinctive bond with the mercurial forces of magic and the supernatural. Many great sorcerers have come from their home province of High Rock, and in addition to their quick and perceptive grasp of spellcraft, enchantment, and alchemy, even the humblest of Bretons can boast a high resistance to destructive and dominating magical energies."

Buoyant Armigers

 * "The light-hearted Buoyant Armigers are rivals of the more solemn Ordinators in service to the Temple."
 * "The Buoyant Armigers serve the Temple as champions and knights-errant."
 * "The Buoyant Armigers pattern themselves on Lord Vivec's heroic spirit of exploration and adventure, and they emulate his mastery of the varied arts of personal combat, chivalric courtesy, and subtle verse."
 * "The Buoyant Armigers is an small military order of the Temple, exclusively dedicated to and answering to Lord Vivec."

Caldera

 * "Caldera is a town, and a mine. Slaves work in the mine. We know nothing about the town."
 * "Caldera is an Imperial charter town, part of the Caldera Mining Company charter, which grants the company rights to mine ebony from the right deposits here. The Caldera ebony mines themselves lie to the southwest. The town has a real Western flavor -- makes outlanders feel right at home. Caldera is rich, and bound to get richer, since the profits from the ebony exports continue to grow as the mine operations grow."
 * "Caldera is a recently chartered Imperial town and mining corporation. The Caldera Mining Company has been granted an Imperial monopoly to remove raw ebony from the rich deposits here. Caldera has the appearance and flavor of a Western Imperial town."

Caldera ebony mines

 * "Welcome to the famous ebony mines of Caldera. What are you in for?"
 * "The Caldera ebony mines are southwest of the village of Caldera. Did you know slaves work the mines here? No, perhaps not. Nothing to see here in town. Nothing to offend the eye. What is not seen, does not offend, yes? But perhaps [Speaker's Name] should not speak about this in public. And who would listen, anyway? What is done matters, not what is said."
 * "The Caldera ebony mines are southwest of the village of Caldera. There's an office, a bunkhouse, and guard tower over near the mine entrance. If you're thinking of taking a look while you're here, head straight west from town, then swing around south into the bowl of the mine through a gap in the mountains. Otherwise, you can try climbing straight over the ridge -- but it is too steep a climb for most."

Caldera Mining Company

 * "The Caldera Mining Company owns the mine."
 * "The Caldera Mine Company is chartered by the Emperor to extract ebony ore from rich underground deposits here."

Camonna Tong

 * "We're just a society of businessmen. We're Dunmer, and we're proud. We're tired of seeing Morrowind run by outsiders who understand nothing about Morrowind. And we're tired of trying to explain this, over and over again, to ignorant outlanders."
 * "We're just natives, trying to get along. It isn't easy, with all the ignorant foreigners sticking their noses where they don't belong. Can I make it any clearer, outlander?"
 * "We're Dunmer, and we're proud. We're tired of seeing Morrowind run by outsiders who understand nothing about Morrowind."
 * "We're just a society of businessmen. Not that it's any of your business, outlander."
 * "The Camonna Tong are known for their brutal disregard for human life."
 * "The Camonna Tong are in direct competition with the Thieves Guild for control of illegal trade, and they have sworn to exterminate the upstart outlander newcomers."
 * "The Camonna Tong has grown powerful and ruthless since the Imperial occupation, and have great influence in the higher ranks of House Hlaalu."
 * "The Camonna Tong is Morrowind's native criminal syndicate."
 * "The Camonna Tong is Morrowind's native criminal syndicate. They're grown powerful and ruthless since the Imperial occupation, and have great influence in the higher ranks of House Hlaalu. The Camonna Tong are in direct competition with the Thieves Guild for control of illegal trade, and they have sworn to exterminate the upstart outlander newcomers. The Camonna Tong are known for their brutal disregard for human life."

Canctunian Ponius

 * "Vivec's cantons are buildings with many levels. The upperworks are the rooftops with shops and rich folks' manors. The waistworks are the next tier down, usually shops and guilds, with some apartments. Canalside is the lowest level, where poor folks live. The underworks are sewers below canalside; only grubbers and cleaners go down there. The corridors are like mazes, so watch how you go. The Temple built all the cantons, and leases them to shops, guilds, and residents."

cantons

 * "He's in the East Empire Company Offices. The large building down by the docks."

cave rat

 * "The cave rat is a subterranean variety of the hardy, abundant hunter-scavenger. Rat meat is tough and greasy, with an unpleasant odor and taste. Nonetheless, it is cheap, abundant, and nutritious, and palatable when cooked in a stew and masked by strong, strong spices."

challenges

 * "Vvardenfell's greatest challenges are its mutually hostile cultures, its cruel and untamed wildernesses, and the troubling phenomenon of the Blight. The Temple and traditional Dunmer cultures are in direct opposition to the values of the Imperial conqueror's colonists, and the interests of each Great House conflict with the interests of the other Great Houses. Only the Imperial Legions and the Duke's shrewd policies prevent political disputes from expanding into civil unrest or warfare."
 * Continue "Even the Legions, however, cannot extend their protection into the sparsely inhabited wastelands of Vvardenfell, where bandits, necromancers, witches, fiends, and monsters find refuge, emerging to threaten the lives of explorers, colonists, and traders. The greatest, and most obscure, threat is the Blight, a mysterious weather-like phenomenon emanating from the crater of Dagoth Ur, warping and poisoning creatures in its path, and creating diseased horrors that attack travelers and outlying settlements."

Chimer

 * "Chimer -- literally "the People of the North," an archaic and poetic usage -- were the Elven tribes who followed the prophet Veloth out of the southwest of Tamriel to settle in the lands now known as Morrowind. Dunmer fable says that before their skin turned dark with the Curse, the Dark Elves were known as the Chimer."

choose a Hortator

 * "A Hortator is chosen by consensus. Everyone has to agree. A single 'no' is a veto. First a Great House has to choose a Hortator. Then that Hortator has to go persuade the other Great Houses to agree to name him Hortator of their houses, too. A very difficult system. No Great House wants to give the honor to a member of another Great House. But luckily, it's mostly honorary, and doesn't cost a House anything. So it might not be that bad, after all."

citizens of the Empire

 * "Sure. We're citizens. We don't have much choice, do we?"
 * "The Dunmer of House Hlaalu are generally proud to be citizens of the Empire. Oh, we complain about the taxes and bureaucrats and greedy merchants like everyone else, but being part of the Empire means free trade and prosperity, and we like that. Other Dunmer -- Houses Redoran and Telvanni, devout Temple-goers, Ashlanders -- are less enthusiastic about the Empire and Imperial control of Morrowind."
 * "We've had peace and prosperity in Morrowind under the Empire for centuries. It's a government by law, and the Legions enforce that law. The Empire has free trade and free religion, so we're rich in pockets and in spirit. Yes, there is corruption. Yes, there are crimes and criminals. Yes, the rich get richer, and the poor poorer. But overall, things are pretty good."

clanfriend

 * "As a clanfriend of the Urshilaku, you may rest in any Urshilaku bed. But you may not harm another Urshilaku, and must not take their things. Do not offend against these rules of hospitality, or you will no longer be our friend."

common disease

 * "There are sixteen common diseases, outlander: rockjoint, helljoint, witbane, chills, serpiginous dementia, greenspore, dampworm, rust chancre, droops, ataxia, wither, swamp fever, collywobbles, brown rot, yellow tick, rattles. The healers of the settled peoples divide them into three kinds: mild, serious, and acute. Serious and acute are more dangerous, of course, but none of them are fatal. But you must get them cured, or they weaken you, and people won't want to talk to you."

conjuration

 * "The conjuration discipline is the mastery of the spell effects of the College of Conjuration. The conjuration spells summon magical items and beings from the outer realms to serve the caster. Conjuring effects include the mental domination of mundane and magical creatures, summoning of otherworldly weapons and armor, and summoning of Daedric servants and powers to serve and protect the caster."

Conjuration expert

 * "Hmm. Conjuration expert? Here? In Sadrith Mora? Well, my first thought would be Master Neloth, the mage-lord of Tel Naga. He's a mickle wizard. But Conjuration is not his specialty. In fact, I don't know anyone in Sadrith Mora who TEACHES Conjuration. No. Wait. Uleni Heleran at the Mages Guild at Wolverine Hall teaches Conjuration. I'm sure of it."
 * "Hmm. Conjuration expert? Well, Uleni Heleran of the Mages Guild here at Wolverine Hall teaches Conjuration. Is that what you're looking for? Training?"

corprus disease

 * "I'm sorry. But we can't help you. We can't cure corprus. Victims must go to the Corprusarium beneath Tel Fyr, the tower of the Telvanni wizard Divayth Fyr. You will go mad, and your body becomes fat and distorted with unnatural growths. It is always fatal. Sometimes it progresses slowly, sometimes in a matter of days. There is no hope. Go to the Corprusarium, or you may give the disease to others."

corprus in Ald'ruhn

 * "There's blight plague in Fort Buckmoth! Trooper went mad, turned into a fat, beast with sores and flabby chunks of flesh hanging off. Then he dropped dead, just like that. You can't make me go anywhere near that fort."
 * "Did you hear? They've got corprus in Fort Buckmoth! A trooper got corprus and died. Went mad. Turned into a monster. Whole fort's in an uproar."

crater citadels

 * "The only approach to the crater citadels is up Foyada Esannudan from Fort Moonmoth, through the Ghostfence at the fortress of Ghostgate, and down into the crater."
 * "The ancient Dwemer citadels on Red Mountain are no longer known by their Dwemer names, but now take the names of their Dagoth Lords: Endusal, Odrosal, Vemynal, Tureynulal, and Dagoth Ur."
 * "Five ancient Dwemer citadels in the crater of Red Mountain are occupied by Dagoth Ur and his ash vampire kin."

cure skooma addict

 * "I have not heard that there is a cure for skooma addiction. The Khajiit themselves say there is no cure, and they should know. But there is a book I have heard of, 'Confessions of a Dunmer Skooma-Eater,' which claims to be a memoir of a Dunmer woman who overcame her addiction to skooma. This book praises skooma, and says that skooma addicts are not necessarily foolish or evil. Dunmer won't carry such a book. Try Vivec, Jobasha's Rare Books, in the Foreign Quarter."
 * "The Khajiit know there is no cure for a Khajiit who has bred skooma in his blood. This one has heard of a book where a Dunmer claims to have been cured of skooma addiction. I have not seen such a book. And how could a Dunmer know more than a Khajiit where skooma and Khajiit are concerned?"

current events

 * "Misshapen monsters and diseases called 'blight disease' are spreading from Red Mountain, a volcano where the Devil Dagoth Ur and his ash vampires live. The settled regions are safe enough, but outside the towns and villages travel is becoming dangerous."
 * "A secret cult called the Sixth House is killing outlanders. No one knows anything about the cult, but outlanders keep dying under suspicious circumstances."
 * "The Temple is at war with a rebellious faction called the Dissident Priests. Ordinators persecute and imprison the Dissident priests, which has driven them underground."
 * "There's always trouble between outlanders -- non-Dunmer Imperial colonists -- and the Dunmer natives. Often it just appears to be common theft and crime, but racial and cultural hatreds often lie behind the violence."
 * "The Great Houses are always fighting each other in the Great House Wars. Rarely do the conflicts break out into open war. Instead the battles go on quietly, behind the scenes."
 * "Let me tell you about current events. The Great Houses are always fighting each other in the Great House Wars. There's always trouble between outlanders -- non-Dunmer Imperial colonists -- and the Dunmer natives. The Temple is at war with a rebellious faction called the Dissident Priests. A secret cult called the Sixth House is killing Imperial citizens. Misshapen monsters and diseases called 'blight disease' are spreading from Red Mountain, a volcano where the Devil Dagoth Ur and his ash vampires live."

Cyrodiil

 * "Cyrodiil is the cradle of Human Imperial high culture on Tamriel. It is the largest region of the continent, and most is endless jungle. The Imperial City is in the heartland, the fertile Nibenay Valley. The densely populated central valley is surrounded by wild rain forests drained by great rivers into the swamps of Argonia and Topal Bay. The land rises gradually to the west and sharply to the north. Between its western coast and its central valley are deciduous forests and mangrove swamps."

Cyrodiilic brandy

 * "Cyrodiilic brandy, an invigorating and stimulating alcoholic beverage, is imported and expensive in Morrowind, but it is claimed to have none of the unpleasant side effects of other intoxicants. I hear it fortifies Willpower and Endurance. I don't know, myself... I save this for paying customers."

Daedra

 * "The Temple regards the Daedra as powerful ancestor spirits, similar to the Tribunal, but weaker and more capricious. Before the Tribunal, the Daedra were worshipped as gods by the Dunmer, but were undeserving of this veneration, since they harmed their followers as often as they helped them. When they became gods, the Tribunal became the Protectors and High Ancestor Spirits of the Dunmer. The good Daedra became loyal friends of the Tribunal, but the bad Daedra remained foul and treacherous."
 * "The Daedra are our ancestors. Before the Tribunal, we worshipped the Daedra as gods, but they didn't deserve it, since they harmed us as often as they helped us. When they became gods, the Tribunal became our Protectors and High Ancestor Spirits. The good Daedra became loyal friends of the Tribunal, but the bad Daedra remained foul and treacherous."

Daedra cults

 * "The Temple forbids the worship of the four bad Daedra -- Mehrunes Dagon, Malacath, Molag Bal, and Sheogorath. But it's a big island, and there's a lot of wilderness, with lots of old Daedric ruins just waiting for a new group of worshippers. The Ordinators have their hands full with heretics and dissidents at home. They can't go out chasing Daedra lovers."

Daedra Skin

 * "Anis Seloth the alchemist probably has some. Her shop is on the north side of town, next to Fara's Hole in the Wall."

Daedra worship

 * "The Mages Guild is permitted to invoke and summon Daedra by Imperial license. This is a source of friction between the Guild and local authorities, and the Guild insists that mages take care to avoid public controversy when using summoning magic."
 * "Despite the Empire's public policy of religious toleration, Imperial authority permits the Ordinators a free hand in persecution and extermination of Rebel Daedra cults."
 * "Cult worship of Molag Bal, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Mehrunes Dagon persists in remote regions despite the efforts of the Ordinators, and is particularly strong among Dunmer dedicated to expulsion of the Empire and restoration of an independent Dunmer nation."
 * "Council and Temple law forbids the worship of the Rebel Daedra Molag Bal, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Mehrunes Dagon in Morrowind."

Daedric summonings

 * "Certain Daedric summonings are more often encountered on Vvardenfell. Good Daedra are the Daedra associated with Boethiah, Azura, and Mephala -- the winged twilight and the hunger. Bad Daedra are associated with Mehrunes Dagon, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Molag Bal. Atronachs are unaligned Daedra of the elemental planes. But don't judge a summoning by its patron. The summoner commands a summoning, and, good or bad, nice or nasty, they must do the summoner's bidding."

Dagon Fel

 * "All Dagon Fel wants to be is a simple fishing village. But recent activities of Sorkvild the Raven are a cause for concern."
 * "This was a Nord settlement thousands of years ago, until the Dunmer drove the Nords from Morrowind. Then the Dwemer built a city here; the village built on the ruins of the Dwemer city. Since Morrowind became an Imperial province, Nord fishermen have returned here. Imperial scholars and adventurers also come here to explore the various Dwemer and Daedric ruins of Sheogorad."
 * "This is Dagon Fel. It's just a tiny fishing village here on the northern coast of Vvardenfell. We're on the large island called Sheogorad in the Azura's Coast region."
 * "Dagon Fel is a tiny fishing village on the northern coast of Vvardenfell on the large island called Sheogorad in the Azura's Coast region."
 * "People seem at ease now that Sorkvild the Raven has been done away with."

Dagoth Ur

 * "It is the Hour of Wakening. He comes forth in his glory, and his people shall rejoice, and his enemies shall scatter like dust."
 * "Dagoth Ur is the evil immortal enemy of the Tribunal Temple cult. The Temple blames Dagoth Ur and his hosts for all the evils that beset the Dunmer and Morrowind. Dagoth Ur dwells in fiery caverns beneath Red Mountain, served by his kin and legions of monsters."
 * "Dagoth Ur is the Devil and the Enemy. Dagoth Ur and his beasts and servants are the source of many evils that beset the Dunmer and Morrowind. Dagoth Ur dwells in fiery caverns beneath Red Mountain, served by his kin, called ash vampires, and by legions of deformed monsters."
 * "Dagoth Ur is the evil immortal enemy of the Tribunal Temple cult. The Temple holds Dagoth Ur and his hosts accountable for all the evils that beset the Dunmer and Morrowind. Dagoth Ur dwells in fiery caverns beneath Red Mountain, served by his kin, called ash vampires, and by legions of deformed monsters."
 * "You have slain Dagoth Ur and all his kin. But remember, [PC Name]. Once before, Lord Nerevar thought Dagoth Ur and all his kin were dead."
 * "The Devil Dagoth Ur is dead, and all his kin. And the Blight has gone, too, and the skies are blue over Red Mountain."

Dark Brotherhood

 * "The Dark Brotherhood is a depraved perversion of the ancient law-abiding order of the Morag Tong. They do not advertise their services or their creed, but they are an outlawed secret society of assassins with an evil reputation, and are often associated with Daedra worship. The Morag Tong is the sworn enemy of the Dark Brotherhood."
 * "The Dark Brotherhood is an ancient secret association of assassins. They do not advertise their services or their creed, but they are an outlawed secret society with an evil reputation, and are often associated with Daedra worship. The Morag Tong claims the Dark Brotherhood is a depraved perversion of their ancient law-abiding order of assassins, and the Morag Tong is the sworn enemy of the Dark Brotherhood."

 * "The Dark Brotherhood is an ancient secret association of assassins."
 * "Scum, all of them. If they're after you, friend, you;d better find yourself some help. Or write a will. Or both."

destruction

 * "The destruction discipline is the mastery of the spell effects of the College of Destruction. The destruction spells harm living and undead creatures, and mages specializing in destruction are usually war wizards."

Dibella

 * "Dibella, the Goddess of Beauty, is the most popular god of the Nine Divines. In Cyrodiil, she has nearly a dozen different cults, some devoted to women, some to artists and aesthetics, and others to erotic instruction."

discerning eye

 * "My starkest madness seeming is divinest sense. Come! Grasp the chain, and prove you're sane!"

Dissident Priests

 * "I know there's been a lot of talk about it for a long time, but now the Temple Priests and Ordinators are really going after heretics, especially Dissident Priests."
 * "We are fiercely loyal to the Temple's ancient traditions. But we are troubled that the ultimate source of the Tribunal's divinity might be the same as the source of Dagoth Ur's evil power. Dagoth Ur's power seems to wax as the Tribunal's power wanes. Read 'The Progress of Truth' and other documents of the Apographa in our library, and you'll see why we are uneasy."
 * "Did you hear they stuck that Dissident Priests guy Malur Omayn in the Ministry of Truth? I guess the Temple Priests and Ordinators figure they can straighten him out in there. I'll bet they can."
 * "Now that Lord Vivec has proclaimed an end to the persecution of the Dissident priests, perhaps we can hope for reconciliation with the Temple."

disturbing dreams

 * "Speak to a wise woman. They know the lore of dreams."
 * "These dreams are the sendings of the Sharmat Dagoth Ur. They are evil sendings, black lies. Do not listen to these dreams, or they will drive you mad."
 * "The Devil's evil dreams are gone, [PC Name]. Dagoth Ur is dead. Now my people can dream in peace."

Divayth Fyr

 * "Divayth Fyr is one of the oldest mortals on Tamriel. He could be the Telvanni Archmagister, but he doesn't care about that stuff. He just wants to collect Dwemer artifacts and Daedric artifacts and corprus victims. He welcomes thieves and adventurers, says they can have anything they can get away with. He must have a right rich booty in there, considering the ones that go in and don't come out."

dreugh

 * "Dreugh are ancient sea monsters, half-human, half-octopus in appearance. Dreugh are hunted for their hides, which are used for making armor, and dreugh wax, a tough, waxy substance with modest magical properties, scraped from dreugh shells."

Dumac

 * "Dumac was a king among the Dwemer and a friend of the hero Nerevar before the war began. He served with Nerevar on the First Council and died with Nerevar at Red Mountain."

Dunmer

 * "We are the Dunmer, the dark-skinned, red-eyed Elven people who followed the Prophet Veloth out of the southwest generation upon generation ago, settling here in Morrowind. We are the true Dunmer. We have remained true to the sacred rites and customs of our forefathers. The House People, also called the Settled People, called 'Dark Elves' by the outlanders, are also of the ancient lineage of the Prophet Veloth."
 * "Dark Elves are the dark-skinned, red-eyed Elven peoples of Morrowind. The 'dark' part may come from their dark grey skin, but it also fits their gloomy dispositions. Folks call them 'Dark Elf' in the West, but they call themselves the 'Dunmer.' They have no sense of humor, and always take themselves very seriously. They look down their noses at all the other races -- particularly the Khajiit and Argonians, which they treat like animals."
 * "We are the dark-skinned, red-eyed Elven people of Morrowind. The Westerners call us 'Dark Elves' but we prefer to call ourselves 'Dunmer'."
 * "Dunmer -- literally 'the Dark, or Cursed People,' or 'Dark Elves' -- are the dark-skinned Elven peoples of the East. 'Dark' is variously understood to mean 'dark-skinned,' 'gloomy,' and 'ill-favored by fate.' The Dunmer and their national character embrace these various connotations enthusiastically. In the Empire, 'Dark Elves' is the common usage."
 * "We Dunmer are the dark-skinned Elven peoples of the Eastern Empire. Dunmer means "dark elf." "Dark" in this sense is variously understood to mean "dark-skinned," "gloomy," and "ill-favored by fate." The Dunmer and our national character embrace these various connotations with enthusiasm. In the Empire, "Dark Elves" is the common usage, but in our Morrowind homeland, and among their Aldmeri brethren, we call ourselves the "Dunmer.""
 * Conitnue "The dark-skinned, red-eyed Dunmer combine powerful intellect with strong and agile physiques, producing superior warriors and sorcerers. On the battlefield, we are noted for our skilled and balanced integration of swordsmen, marksmen, and war wizards. In character, we are grim, aloof, and reserved. We wisely distrust and disdain the lesser achievements of the inferior races."
 * Continue "We Dunmer prize the virtues of duty, gravity, and piety. Duty is to one's own honor, and to one's family and clan. Gravity is the essential seriousness of life. Life is hard, and events must be judged, endured, and reflected upon with due care and earnestness. Piety is respect for the gods, and the virtues they represent. A light, careless life is not worth living. We are proud of being dark-skinned and dark-humored. Our race produces great warriors and wizards in equal proportion."
 * "You are the Prophesied One. You must save the Dunmer people."
 * "We are the Dunmer. Once this was the Dunmer's land, and it will be once again."

Dunmer metropolitan style

 * "Vivec City presents a unique panorama of high Dunmer architectural style. Grand multi-tiered blocks are arranged along canals. High bridges lead across the canals to block-top plazas and markets, while below gondoliers guide flat-bottomed skiffs along the canals. The whole city is overshadowed by the grand monumental architectures of Vivec's Palace and the Archcanon's High Fane."

Dunmer urban style

 * "Dunmer towns are typically organized around a dominant central feature, either the Temple or the grand manor residences of the Great House nobles. Simple multi-storied public and commercial buildings -- tradehouses, craftguilds, and such -- are usually rectangular in floor plan, built from local materials, featuring organic curves with decorated exteriors. More modest one-story private dwellings follow the same plan, except with less decoration."
 * Conitnue "Urban Temple compounds feature high-walled outer courtyards, with smaller shelters and halls clustered around the Temple Shrine itself. Aristocratic residences of the Great Houses are similar to Temple compounds with walled outer courts and outbuildings for craftsmen and servants, dominated by a grand manor residence in place of the Temple Shrine."

Dunmer village style

 * "The Dunmer village style is the most familiar style in all districts. Huts are built of local materials, with organic curves and undecorated exteriors inspired by the landscape and the shells of giant native insects. Villages are dominated by Temple compounds and courtyards in traditional villages, but in newer plantations, the manor houses are the central features."

Dwemer

 * "The Dwemer were ancient enemies of the Dunmer, but they are long dead, destroyed in a holy war by Saint Nerevar and the Tribunal."
 * "Saint Nerevar and the Tribunal defeated the Dwemer in holy war, and banished them from the face of the world for their blasphemies."
 * "They call them 'Dwarves' in the West. In their folly and pride, the Dwemer conspired to create a god to serve them and to destroy the Dunmer. But now they are no more."
 * "Dwemer -- literally, 'the Deep, or Deep-Counseled or Secretive People' -- are the fabled lost Dwarven race whose ruins and splendid artifacts are scattered across Tamriel. Elves use the term 'Dwemer,' connoting variously 'deep-delving,' 'profound,' and 'close-counseled'; Imperial usage is 'Dwarven,' derived in fable from the affectionate regard of the Giant races for their 'little' Dwemer friends."

Dwemer artifacts

 * "Artifacts salvaged from Dwemer ruins are valuable, but protected under Imperial law, and trade in such artifacts is illegal. Most valuable are Dwarven weapons and armor, both for their superb craftsmanship, and for their value to collectors and scholars."
 * "I heard Ra'Zhid over at FatLeg's Drop Off was looking for a buyer."
 * "I don't know anything about that."

Dwemer ruins

 * "Dwemer ruins all over the place up here on the island. Folks come hunting Dwemer artifacts, never mind the Emperor's laws. None of my business."
 * "Dwemer artifacts taken from Dwemer ruins are very valuable, particularly Dwemer weapons, armor, and other enchanted devices, but they are protected as property of the Emperor by Imperial decree, and trade in such artifacts is illegal."
 * "The ruins of the lost Dwemer race are found everywhere in Tamriel, but are most common in Morrowind, once the native land of the Dwemer."

East Empire Company

 * "The East Empire Company is a monopolistic mercantile enterprise chartered by the Emperor and managed by a board of directors appointed by the Emperor. The Company has sole authority to trade in certain goods, like flin, raw ebony, raw glass, and Dwemer artifacts, and it also enjoys favorable tariffs and regulations for import and export of other common and exotic goods, like kwama eggs, marshmerrow pulp, saltrice, and Telvanni bug musk."
 * Continue "Because of its wealth and the favor of the Emperor, the East Empire company wields considerable influence in the Duke's administration."

Ebonheart

 * "Ebonheart is a walled Imperial town in the southern part of the Ascadian Isles region, west of the city of Vivec."
 * "Ebonheart is the seat of the Imperial government for Vvardenfell district, and a busy center of maritime trade."
 * "Castle Ebonheart is the home of Duke Vedam Dren, the district's ruler and Emperor's representative."
 * "The Vvardenfell District Council chambers and the Hawk Moth Legion garrison are located at Castle Ebonheart."
 * "The officers, docks, and warehouses of the East Empire Company are found in Ebonheart."
 * "Ebonheart is the seat of the Imperial government for Vvardenfell district, and a busy center of maritime trade. Castle Ebonheart is the home of Duke Vedam Dren, the district's ruler and Emperor's representative. Also located at Castle Ebonheart are the Vvardenfell District Council chambers and the Hawk Moth Legion garrison. The officers, docks, and warehouses of the East Empire Company are also found in Ebonheart."
 * "Ebonheart is the Imperial headquarters for Vvardenfell district, and a busy seaport. Duke Vedam Dren is the district's ruler and Emperor's representative. The Duke lives in Castle Ebonheart. The District Council chambers and the Hawk Moth Legion garrison are also at Castle Ebonheart. The East Empire Company buildings and docks are outside the castle, facing Vivec to the east."
 * "Castle Ebonheart is the seat of Imperial authority on Vvardenfell. Here Duke Vedam Dren, Duke of Ebonheart, and the Vvardenfell Grand Council determine law and policy for the Vvardenfell administrative district. The Imperial cult shrine here serves the Duke, his retainers, and the castle's garrisons, and is also an administrative center for the Imperial cult presence on Vvardenfell. A unit of the Imperial Guard protects the Duke, and the Hawkmoth Legion is also garrisoned within the walls of the castle."
 * Continue "Because the East Empire Company is chartered directly by the Emperor, its offices, warehouses, and docks are adjacent to the castle, and its security is assured by the Imperial garrisons. The provinces of Skyrim and Black Marsh maintain diplomatic missions within the walls of Castle Ebonheart to insure that their political interests are respected by the laws and policies of the Duke and Grand Council."

eggmines

 * "Kwama eggs are a principal agricultural commodity of Vvardenfell District. Kwama live and breed in large communal subterranean colonies. Miners protect kwama eggs from poachers, predators, and raiding kwama foragers from other colonies, and harvest judiciously, preserving sufficient eggs to sustain colony growth. Consumed locally or exported by ship to the rest of the Empire, kwama eggs are eaten boiled, roasted, or raw, and remain fresh for weeks."

Elsweyr

 * "The Khajiit of the southern Elsweyr jungles and river basins are settled city dwellers with ancient mercantile traditions and a stable agrarian aristocracy based on sugarcane and saltrice plantations. The nomadic tribal Khajiit of the dry northern wastes and grasslands are, by contrast, aggressive and territorial tribal raiders periodically united under tribal warlords. While the settled south has been quick to adopt Imperial ways, the northern nomadic tribes cling to their warlike barbarian traditions."

Empire

 * "Their armies are great, and so is their lust for fortune."
 * "Who can oppose the law and taxes of the Emperor? His hand lies heavy on our ancient land."
 * "Give to the Emperor only your coin, and honor only the law which is just."
 * "Heed the Emperor's law and might, but dedicate your body and soul to the sacred soil of Morrowind, and to the Temple which schools, nourishes, and protects its people."
 * "The Empire is the greatest achievement of Tamrielic civilization. This melting pot of contrasting cultures is held together by a strong hereditary emperor and bureaucracy, by the rule of law, by a powerful professional army, and by religious tolerance. Education and wealth is broadly distributed through all social classes where Imperial culture has flourished; many citizens are literate and protected under Imperial law."

enchant

 * "The enchant discipline concerns imbuing physical items with magical properties called enchantments. The simplest enchantment are magical scrolls with a single enchantment that are destroyed with one use. The most complex enchantments are enchanted artifacts, objects with one or more magical effects powered by built-in soul gems. Skilled enchanters also use enchanted items more efficiently, with less waste of the magicka trapped in the soul gems."

enchanters

 * "Enchanters create enchanted items for themselves and for unskilled spellcasters. A magic scroll is the simplest enchanted item; anyone can use it to cast a single spell with 100% reliability, but the scroll is destroyed in the process. Enchanters also place permanent enchantments on weapons, armor, clothing, and ornaments. These items cast spells reliably, powered by built-in soul gems. A soul gem's power limits the number of an item's uses, but the gems renew their expended power over time."

 * "A soul gem's power limits the number of an item's uses, but the gems renew their expended power over time."

enchanting items

 * "You can enchant items yourself, using your own skill, or go to an enchanter, who uses his skill to make the item -- and charges handsomely for the service."
 * "To enchant an item, you must have the item to be enchanted and a soul gem containing a soul."
 * "To have an enchanter enchant an item for you, bring it to the enchanter, along with a soul gem to power the item."
 * "To enchant an item yourself, use a soul gem with sufficient power to support the enchantments you want to add. And have some skill in enchanting, or you will just fail and waste your soul gem."
 * "When enchanting an item yourself, you can only enchant items with spell effects you know, and success or failure in enchanting an item depends on your enchanting skill."
 * "Different items have different capacities for enchantments, and various soul gems are more or less powerful."
 * "Enchanting items is expensive, and failure destroys the item, so enchanting items is most profitable for skilled enchanters."

enchantments

 * "Temple enchanters favor healing and protection spells. Redoran enchanters favor wounding missile loads and shield spells. Hlaalu like weapon enchantments and various spell rings. Imperials use a wide array of weapon and ring damage enchantments. But the masters of enchantment are the Telvanni. They use all effects, often several combined on one item, but they especially like items that summon creatures or magical weapons and armor."

Erabenimsun camp

 * "The Ashlander Erabenimsun tribe has a permanent settlement at Erabenimsun camp, an isolated hut settlement in the middle of the desolate Molag Amur region."
 * "The Erabenimsun are the Ashlanders of Molag Amur, a barren wasteland of rock, lava, and smoke southeast of Red Mountain. Erabenimsun camp is inland, halfway between the coast and Red Mountain. Here. Let me mark it on your map. The nearest settlement is the stronghold oasis of Molag Maar, on the southeast coast of Vvardenfell. You can get a ship from Vivec to Molag Maar, or silt strider from Suran to Molag Maar. From Molag Maar, head north cross-country -- very nasty country -- to Erabenimsun camp."
 * "Erabenimsun camp lies north as the racer flies, between Mt. Kand and Mt. Assarnibibi and beyond. The camp itself lies north-northwest of Mt. Assarnibibi. There is no track, and the going is difficult. You'll need to turn and backtrack to avoid obstacles like lava lakes. The camp itself is a group of five or six yurts."
 * "The camp itself lies north-northwest of Mt. Assarnibibi in the wastelands of Molag Amur. There are no tracks, few landmarks, and the going is difficult. Even we Ashlanders get lost in Molag Amur. You can't go straight; lava lakes, ridges, and ravines block all routes. An outlander like you? Walk north like a pilgrim from Molag Mar, find the shrine at Mount Assarnibibi, then from there search north for the camp."
 * "Find Tel Fyr, the tower of Divayth Fyr, on the southern coast of Zafirbel Bay. Tel Fyr is due south from Tel Aruhn, across the bay. Then follow the mainland coastline south until you pass a one-yurt outcast camp. Look southwest for a valley heading west, inland. Follow the valley west, turning south with it, until you see the camp in a small hollow surrounded by hills."
 * "This is Erabenimsun camp."

eye of the needle

 * "Perhaps you mean the Needle? It is a tall rock column in the Valley of the Wind. I have slept beneath it once or twice. The Valley of the Wind is a valley on the northeast slopes of Red Mountain. The entrance to the valley is marked by Airan's Teeth, two tall rock spires."
 * "This token of our tribe, Malipu-Ataman's Belt, is proof of Sul-Matuul's blessing. Let me think.... Perhaps you mean the Needle? It is a tall rock column in the Valley of the Wind. I have slept beneath it once or twice. The Valley of the Wind is a valley on the northeast slopes of Red Mountain. The entrance to the valley is marked by Airan's Teeth, two tall rock spires."

factions

 * "Observers of Vvardenfell's politics have identified eleven main factions, some aligned with Imperial interests, some aligned with native Dunmer interests. The primary Imperial factions are the Imperial cult, the Imperial legions, and the Fighters, Mages, and Thieves Guilds. The primary native Dunmer factions are the three Great Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni, the Temple, and the Morag Tong. The Ashlander barbarians are native Dunmer, but are opposed to both the Empire and the settled Dunmer."

Farvyn Oreyn

 * "Thank the gods for Farvyn Oreyn. Long will we tell of his heroic conquests. He arrived here only a day ago with his servants to help rid of us some marauding netches. Even now, he has gone to the south of town, making the area safe once again for our fishermen."
 * "Oh, wondrous is Farvyn Oreyen, the powerful battlemage! He single-handedly slew a Daedroth Lord who wished to enslave us all. Even now, he has traveled with his servants to Gnaar Mok, to rid that poor town of some evil presence."

Fenas Madach

 * "Fenas Madach is a local-born Breton and the owner and proprietor of the Madach Tradehouse in Gnisis."

fighter disciplines

 * "The nine disciplines traditionally associated with the Fighters Guild are: block, armorer, medium armor, heavy armor, blunt weapon, long blade, axe, spear, and athletics."

Fighters Guild

 * "The Fighters Guild is a professional organization chartered by the Emperor to regulate the hiring and training of mercenaries."
 * "Training, goods, and services are cheaper for Fighters Guild members, and the Guild Stewards know where to find work."
 * "You'll find Fighters Guild chapters in Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Wolverine Hall in Sadrith Mora, and the Foreign Quarter in Vivec."
 * "The Fighters Guild is a professional organization chartered by the Emperor to regulate the hiring and training of mercenaries. Training, goods, and services are cheaper for members, and the Guild Stewards know where to find work. Look for chapters in Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Wolverine Hall in Sadrith Mora, and the Foreign Quarter in Vivec."
 * "The Fighters Guild in Balmora is on Trade Street, west of the river, on the right as you head north of the plaza near the south gate and the silt strider port. Eydis Fire-Eye is the steward. Look for her if you're thinking of joining the Fighters Guild."
 * "Yes. This is the Fighters Guild. Eydis Fire-Eye is the steward. Talk to her if you're thinking of joining the Fighters Guild."

fines

 * "The punishment for criminals in Morrowind is typically fines. Fines are collected by the state, and compensation is paid to the injured party or his kin."
 * "Fines may sound like a sweet deal -- kill an enemy, then pay the fine -- but folks who have enough money to pay such fines are almost always House lords, and House Wars customs means the Great House of the victim usually buys a writ with the Morag Tong to assassinate the murderer. So murderers pay, and THEN they get killed, too."

fines and compensation

 * "The punishment for criminals in Morrowind is typically fines and compensation. The fines are collected by the state; the compensation goes to the injured party or his kin. That may sound like a sweet deal -- kill an enemy, then pay the fine -- but folks who have enough money to pay such fines are almost always House lords, and House Wars customs means the Great House of the victim usually buys a writ with the Morag Tong to assassinate the murderer. So murderers pay, and THEN they get killed, too."
 * "That's how we punish crimes in Morrowind. We collect fines, and compensation is paid to the injured party or his kin. Don't pay the fine? Then do hard labor."

flin

 * "Imported Cyrodiilic whiskey is called flin. This stimulating beverage is imported and expensive, but has none of the unpleasant side effects of other intoxicating beverages. A sharp boost in strength and willpower is what most people experience."

Food

 * "We've got local fare. It's filling, and priced to move. We've got the local brews, greef, shein, mazte and sujamma. They're cheap, and full of kick. I've got the good stuff, too, behind the counter -- Cyrodiilic brandy and flin -- but it ain't cheap. We don't carry skooma, and we don't like it used here. And we don't like Telvanni bug musk, either -- it clouds the mind and makes fools more foolish."

food in Morrowind

 * "The staple is the saltrice grain, usually eaten as a cooked porridge mixed with scuttle (a cheese-like food from giant domesticated beetles). Hackle-lo (a hardy succulent edible leafy green) is a reliable year-round vegetable, eaten cooked or raw, and bittergreen (a fast-growing slime triggered by rain) is safe and nourishing when boiled, though highly toxic if eaten raw."
 * Continue "The most popular sources of protein are kwama eggs and the meat of the domesticated guar. The most popular beverages are mazte (a local beer brewed from fermented saltrice) and sujamma (a potent, bitter liquor)."

Foreign Quarter

 * "The Foreign Quarter is the large three-tiered canton to the north. Originally, foreigners were not allowed to enter Vivec any further than the Foreign Quarter, but now outlanders can travel throughout Vivec at will. The Imperial Guilds each have guildhalls and complete services here, and an Imperial cult shrine serves the spiritual needs of the Imperial faithful. Various independent tradesmen, craftsmen, and trainers also rent space here. The Black Shalk Cornerclub rents beds to non-guild visitors."

foreigners

 * "Most native Dunmer don't like foreigners. The Dunmer are a proud people, and they look down on other races and cultures. They particularly dislike outland Dunmer -- Dark Elves born and raised to Imperial ways, who don't know what it is to be a Dunmer born-and-bred. Foreigners can be accepted in Morrowind, even adopted into the Great Houses. There's even a Nord on the House Hlaalu Council. But it isn't easy. It takes time and effort to win a native's trust."
 * "We don't like foreigners much in Morrowind. This is our country, and we don't like foreigners who come in and steal our land and our treasures and tell us what to do and how to live."
 * "We don't like foreigners much in Morrowind. We Dunmer are a proud people, and we have good reasons to dislike other races. And, for that matter, we don't much like outland Dunmer -- Dark Elves born and raised to Imperial ways, who don't know what it is to be a Dunmer born-and-bred. Some of us get used to foreigners. We even like some, and adopt some into our Great Houses. But it isn't easy. It takes time and effort to win a native's trust."

Fort Moonmoth

 * "Fort Moonmoth is the Imperial Legions garrison southeast of Balmora, just outside of town. General Larrius Varro is the commandant, and Radd Hard-Heart is the Chapter Steward. The Chapter Steward is the fellow to talk to if you were thinking of enlisting. Crulius Pontanian, an enchanter, is the Imperial agent. Between the Imperial Legions and Imperial cult staff, they have about a dozen service providers out there."

fortify potions

 * "Fortify potions temporarily increase attributes and abilities. Fortify potions include: fortify strength, fortify intelligence, fortify willpower, fortify agility, fortify speed, fortify personality, fortify luck, fortify health, fortify spell points, fortify fatigue, and fortify endurance."

Forts

 * "We have garrisons at Fort Pelagiad in Pelagiad, Fort Hawkmoth in Ebonheart, Fort Moonmoth outside Balmora, Fort Buckmoth outside Ald'ruhn, and Fort Darius in Gnisis."

fortune

 * "Fortune is the corrupt spirit of commerce, profit, and usury. It is worshipped under the name of Zenithar in the Empire."
 * "In many lands the spirit of Fortune is worshipped under no name at all, save in its mortal incarnation, the Almighty Coin."
 * "Worshippers of Fortune scorn the Temple Law of Fair Price and Fair Labor, and assert that Might makes Right in measuring price and labor."
 * "Extracting profit from trade and interest steals wealth from the deserving and puts it in the hands of thieves and extortionists."

foyada

 * "'Foyada' means 'fire-river' in the native Ashlander language. The deep, ash-dark ravines which run down from the Red Mountain volcano are called foyada. The lava from Red Mountain is very fluid, and it runs almost like water, and during an eruption, fire-rivers run down the mountain, clearing the ravines of vegetation. Because they have good footing, are clear of brush, and run long distances, we use them like roads when traveling overland."

Foyada Mamaea

 * "Foyada Mamaea is a volcanic ravine that runs from the top of Red Mountain southwest to its end just below Balmora. An old Dwemer bridge crosses the foyada near Fort Moonmoth. The best route to Ghostgate is to follow Foyada Mamaea up from where the Pelagiad-Balmora road crosses the foyada southeast of Fort Moonmoth."

Frald the White

 * "He's in charge of the garrison here in Ebonheart. You can find him in the Hawkmoth Legion Garrison."

Furius Acilius

 * "Hmmm. Try the Imperial Guard Garrison in the Castle. They may know something."
 * "Always had a chip on his shoulder. No one's seen or heard of him since he was banished. He had used the southwest room here."

Gang War

 * "It was inevitable. The local criminal organization, the Camonna Tong, wasn't going to stand by and let the Thieves Guild set up shop in their territory. It'll be bloody. And the Thieves Guild doesn't stand a chance."

Gateway

 * "Unless you are a Telvanni retainer or kin, you're not supposed to sleep anywhere in Sadrith Mora except the Gateway, the official Telvanni hostel for outsider visitors. In theory, you're not supposed to walk around in Sadrith Mora unless you are Telvanni retainer or kin, unless you have the necessary Hospitality papers from the Prefect of Hospitality, Angaredhel the Dunmer, at the Gateway. In practice, stay out of trouble, and you can go where you want and do what you want."

Unless you are a Telvanni retainer or kin, no one is permitted to walk abroad in Sadrith Mora without Hospitality papers from the Prefect of Hospitality, Angaredhel the Dunmer, at the Gateway."

Gateway haunting

 * "You've heard about it? I saw it myself. Open the South Turret bed chamber door and there it is. Another fellow went in an attacked it. He wasn't badly hurt, and it wasn't hard to drive it away. But a couple hours later, someone else went up there and it was back. And it KEEPS coming back, no matter what you do. Neloth's Mouth, Arara Uvulas the mage, looked at it, but he doesn't know what's happening. The Gateway can't rent the room, and Angaredhel is very upset."
 * "By the way, we heard how you handled that business with Uleni Heleran and the Gateway haunting. We all like Uleni very much, and we're glad you kept her name out if it when you spoke with Angaredhel."
 * "Angaredhel mentioned your handling of the Gateway haunting affair. It was quite an embarrassment for our house, and we are grateful."

geographic regions

These geographic regions are called: the Ascadian Isles, the Ashlands, Azura's Coast, the Bitter Coast, the Grazelands, Molag Amur, Red Mountain, West Gash, and Sheogorad."

geography of Morrowind

 * "The island of Vvardenfell, in north-central Morrowind, is known for the giant volcano Red Mountain and its ash wastes. Most of the Vvardenfell's population is squeezed into the green southwest coast."

The southeast is a warm coastal plain with broad cultivated areas and marshes and swamps similar to those found in Black Marsh. The west and south-central region is mountainous and sparsely populated."
 * Continue "The rocky, rugged archipelago of the northeast is also sparsely populated. Most of the population is gathered in the high uplands and fertile river valleys of central Morrowind, especially around the Inland Sea. The island of Vvardenfel is dominated by the titanic volcano Red Mountain and its associated ash wastelands; most of the island's population is confined to the relatively hospitable west and southwest coast."

Vvardenfell District consists of the island of Vvardenfell, surrounded by the Inland Sea, and dominated by the titanic volcano Red Mountain and its associated ash wastelands."
 * Continue "Only recently open to settlement and trade, most of the island's population is confined to the relatively hospitable west and southwest coast, centered around the ancient city of Vivec and the old Great House district centers at Balmora, Ald'ruhn, and Sadrith Mora. The rest of the island is covered by hostile desert wastes, arid grasslands, and volcanic badlands, and thinly populated by the nomadic Ashlander tribes."

get cured

 * "Get diseases cured at the Temple or Imperial cult, or a healer or apothecary or enchanter. Or get a spell and cure yourself."
 * "The Temple and Imperial cult have shrines and altars. Pay for a blessing, and get cured. Ranking members get cured free; others must pay."
 * "Buy cure potions from healers, apothecaries, alchemists, or traders. Enchanters sell cure scrolls. Best way, of course, is learn the spell and cure yourself, so you have an endless, portable, cheap source of cures."

Ghostfence

 * "The Ghostfence is a magic wall created by the Tribunal to imprison the devil Dagoth Ur and his evil servants within the crater of Red Mountain."
 * "Nothing can pass through the Ghostfence except at Ghostgate. Ghostgate is guarded by Ordinators and Buoyant Armigers at the Tower of Dawn and the Tower of Dusk."
 * "The Ghostfence is a magic wall running completely around Red Mountain. The barrier keeps blight storms and blight monsters from spreading across Vvardenfell."
 * "The Ghostfence was created and is sustained by the divine powers of Vivec and the Tribunal."
 * "In the past, the Ghostfence was completely effective, but now we hear reports of encounters with blighted monsters outside the fence."
 * "The chiefs of the settled people -- Vivec, Almalexia, and Sotha Sil -- are false gods, but they must be mighty sorcerers to create and feed the powerful magic of the Ghostfence."
 * "The Ghostfence is a magic wall around Red Mountain. The settled people created this barrier to keep the Devil Dagoth Ur and his beasts and servants trapped in Red Mountain."
 * "Now we don't need this magic wall, since you have killed Dagoth Ur."
 * "Thanks to you, Nerevarine, Dagoth Ur is dead, and we don't need the Ghostfence."
 * "Dagoth Ur is dead, Nerevarine. We don't need the Ghostfence. But its bare pylons will remain as a tribute to Almsivi, to all the Ordinators and Buoyant Armigers who died, to the victims of the Sixth House, and to you, Nerevar-Born-Again."

 * "Ghostgate is the stronghold on the south slope of Red Mountain that guards the only passage through the Ghostfence and into the blighted region of Red Mountain."
 * "Ghostgate is the gate citadel of the Ghostfence Ordinator and Buoyant Armiger garrisons. Ghostgate sits astride the only gap through which the monstrous hosts of Dagoth Ur might emerge from Red Mountain to threaten the rest of Morrowind. The Ghostfence itself is a colossal magical artifact that completely encircles Red Mountain and prevents the Blight from spilling its corruption across the rest of Vvardenfell."
 * "Ghostgate is a stronghold that guards the only passage through the Ghostfence and into the blighted region of Red Mountain."
 * "Ghostgate is garrisoned by the Ordinators and the Buoyant Armigers, and House Redoran maintains a hostel for pilgrims."
 * "For centuries Ordinators and Buoyant Armigers led by the Tribunal would passed through Ghostgate on annual raids against Dagoth Ur's ash vampire kin, but these raids were suspended because of heavy losses to the Temple forces."
 * "Ghostgate is a great warrior's fort of the settled people. It blocks the only hole in the magic wall that keeps Dagoth Ur and his evil trapped inside. These warriors serve false gods, but they are brave fighters."
 * "Now that Dagoth Ur is dead, and the Blight ended, I wonder if they'll maintain a garrison at Ghostgate. Or will it become a deserted ruin, like the old Dunmer strongholds. Only time will tell, Moon-and-Star."
 * "Ghostgate was built as the gate citadel of the Ghostfence Ordinator and Buoyant Armiger garrisons. Now, since you've slain Dagoth Ur and banished the Blight, perhaps they should maintain the garrisons as a tribute to Almsivi and you, and all those who died to save Morrowind."
 * "I hope they maintain Ghostgate as a stronghold for the Ordinators and the Buoyant Armigers, and as a hostel for pilgrims. You know, Nerevarine, in years to come, they will make pilgrimages here, and to Red Mountain. We won't forget what you've done."
 * "Ghostgate is a great warrior's fort of the settled people. But you killed the Devil, Nerevarine. Maybe they will abandon the fort, like all the ancient strongholds."

Gnaar Mok

 * "Gnaar Mok is a tiny island fishing village in the Bitter Coast region of western Vvardenfell."
 * "Everyone's worried about those two breeding netch that have been attacking."
 * "Thankfully those breeding netch have been taken care of. Everyone seems a bit better now."

Gnisis

 * "Gnisis is a small mining and trade village on the silt strider caravan route between the northwest West Gash and Ald'ruhn."
 * "Gnisis is a small agricultural village on the Ouada Samsi, with a prosperous little eggmine. We sit on the caravan route to Ald'ruhn, with silt strider service, and traders come through here often. Like any small outland caravan village, it has a market, the Gnisis Temple, and a tradehouse -- the Madach Tradehouse. Unlike most outland villages, there's a Deathshead Legion garrison in Gnisis, and pilgrims come to see the Mask of Vivec at the Gnisis Temple."

Gnisis Temple

 * "Gnisis Temple is the only shrine in Gnisis. Pilgrims visit the Temple to pray before the Mask of Vivec, a holy relic. The Temple maintains a hostel for pilgrims and travelers, and provides the other services common at any small shrine."

good Daedra

 * "Boethiah, Mephala, and Azura are loyal friends of the Tribunal. These Daedra are the Good Daedra, which we also call the Anticipations."
 * "The Temple says that Boethiah, Mephala, and Azura, the Anticipations, also called the Good Daedra, are loyal friends of the Tribunal. Malacath, Mehrunes Dagon, Molag Bal, and Sheogorath, the Four Corners of the House of Trouble, also called the Bad Daedra, are inconstant, rebellious, and unreliable, and ever eager to seduce the faithful into sin and profane worship. The loyal Three Good Daedra, knowing the tricks of their rebellious kin, help the Tribunal frustrate the devious schemes of the Bad Daedra."

Grazelands

 * "The regular rain and dark soils of the Grazelands make the rich green grass that feeds the Ashlander herds."
 * "The Grazelands region lies in the northeast of Vvardenfell, sandwiched between the Ashlands and Azura's Coast."
 * "Permanent settlements in the Grazelands include Vos village and the towers of Tel Vos and Tel Fyr."
 * "The Ashlanders of Zainab camp move their herds across the Grazelands in search of fresh fodder."
 * "There are no roads or tracks in the Grazelands, but travel is easy across the rolling plains."
 * "The regular rain and dark soils of the Grazelands produce the rich grazing for Ashlander herds that gives the region its name. The region lies in the northeast of Vvardenfell, sandwiched between the Ashlands and Azura's Coast. Permanent settlements include Vos village and the towers of Tel Vos and Tel Fyr. The Ashlanders of Zainab camp move their herds across the plains in search of fresh grazing. There are no roads or tracks, but travel is easy across the open plains."

Great Houses

 * "Morrowind is dominated by five noble Great Houses. Three have holdings on Vvardenfell: House Redoran, House Hlaalu, and House Telvanni."
 * "Of the three Great Houses that rule Vvardenfell, House Redoran is the aristocratic house of noble warriors, and strong supporters of the Temple."
 * "House Hlaalu, the Great House that strongly supports the Empire, is ruled by traders and merchant princes."
 * "House Telvanni is an independent association of wizard-lords, equally hostile to the Empire, the Temple, and the other Great Houses of Morrowind."
 * "House Indoril and House Dres are also Great Houses of Morrowind, but they have no holdings on Vvardenfell."
 * "In modern times Morrowind is ruled by five Great Houses: House Hlaalu, House Redoran, House Telvanni, House Indoril, and House Dres. Three Great Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni, have territorial interests on Vvardenfell; the other two, Dres and Indoril, are not represented on Vvardenfell."
 * "Vvardenfell's three Great Houses identify themselves by their traditional colors: red for Redoran, yellow for Hlaalu, and brown for Telvanni. For example, House Hlaalu members are called 'Yellows'."
 * "Great Houses derive from ancient Dunmer clan and tribes, but now function as political parties."
 * "Dunmer membership in a Great House is a matter of birth and marriage, but Imperial colonists may become retainers of a Great House, or may be adopted into a Great House."
 * "In modern times Morrowind is ruled by five Great Houses: House Hlaalu, House Redoran, House Telvanni, House Indoril, and House Dres. Three of these Great Houses have territorial interests on Vvardenfell; the other two, Dres and Indoril, are not represented on Vvardenfell. The three Great Houses on Vvardenfell identify themselves by their traditional colors: red for Redoran, yellow for Hlaalu, and brown for Telvanni. Thus, members of House Hlaalu may be referred to collectively as Yellows."
 * Continue "The Great Houses traditions derive from ancient Dunmer clan and tribes, but now function as political parties. Dunmer Great House membership is largely a matter of birth and marriage, but Imperial colonists may also become retainers of a Great House, or may be adopted into a Great House."
 * "Three Great Houses rule Vvardenfell. House Redoran are noble warriors, and strong supporters of the Temple. House Hlaalu are traders and merchant princes, and strong supporters of the Empire. House Telvanni are independent wizard-lords, hostile to the Empire, the Temple, and the other Great Houses."
 * "The Red Party of Redoran preserves the ancient martial traditions of our ancestors, and deserves our thankful respect."
 * "The Brown Party of Telvanni honors great traditions of arcane mastery of our race, and deserve our respect, but they are careless in observance of Temple teaching, and scornful of discipline, doctrine, and obedience."
 * "The Yellow Party of Hlaalu honors and serves Fortune, Trade, and the Empire, and through such distractions they stray away from the narrow paths of duty, gravity, and piety."

greater saints

 * "The greater saints of the Temple, listed with their proper spheres, are: Blessed Almalexia the Warden -- Healers, Teachers, Lord Sotha Sil the Magus -- Artificers, Wizards, Lord Vivec the Poet -- Artists, Rogues, Saint Nerevar the Captain -- Warriors, Statesmen, and Saint Veloth the Pilgrim -- Outcasts, Seekers."

greef

 * "The native comberry brandy is locally called greef. Greef is a strong stimulant, but like all intoxicants, it tends to impair physical coordination. That is, it makes you feel real strong, but makes you clumsy."

Grytewake

 * "Velfred never docks in Hla Oad, but he sells goods here from time to time. He must have another dock near here."
 * "Right. That's Velfred's ship. It never comes into Hla Oad, but sometimes docks near here. Follow the coast southwest to get to Hla Oad's less public docks."

guard

 * "Guards keep the peace and chase down criminals. Each district has its own guards. Legion troopers in Imperial districts, Ordinators in Temple districts, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni guards in their own Great House districts. Guards collect fines and compensation, or drag you off to prison if you can't pay."

Guild disciplines

 * "In the West they speak of three guilds of mercenaries and adventurers: the Fighters Guild, the Mages Guild, and the Thieves Guild. Each of these guilds by tradition acknowledge nine different disciplines as their proper areas of study and mastery. Thus it is common to speak of the nine fighter disciplines, the nine mage disciplines, and the nine stealth disciplines."

guild guide

 * "A guild guide is a spellcaster of the Mages Guild who provides magical transport for a small fee. You can only travel from one Mages Guild to another, but it is the fastest way to travel between Vivec, Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Caldera, and Sadrith Mora."
 * "A guild guide is a spellcaster of the Mages Guild who provides magical transport for a small fee. You can only travel from one Mages Guild to another, but it is the fastest way to travel between Vivec, Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Caldera, and Sadrith Mora. Erranil is the guild guide at the Ald'ruhn Mages Guild. For a small fee, she can teleport you directly to the Mages Guild at either Vivec, Balmora, Caldera, or Sadrith Mora."
 * "A guild guide is a spellcaster of the Mages Guild who provides magical transport for a small fee. You can only travel from one Mages Guild to another, but it is the fastest way to travel between Vivec, Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Caldera, and Sadrith Mora. Masalinie Merian is the guild guide at the Balmora Mages Guild. For a small fee, she can teleport you directly to the Mages Guild at either Vivec, Ald'ruhn, Caldera, or Sadrith Mora."
 * "A guild guide is a spellcaster of the Mages Guild who provides magical transport for a small fee. You can only travel from one Mages Guild to another, but it is the fastest way to travel between Vivec, Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Caldera, and Sadrith Mora. Flacassia Fauseius is the guild guide at the Vivec Mages Guild in the Foreign Quarter. For a small fee, she can teleport you directly to the Mages Guild at either Balmora, Ald'ruhn, Caldera, or Sadrith Mora."

Hall of Justice

 * "The Hall of Wisdom and Hall of Justice contain the executive, administrative, judicial, and martial operations of the Tribunal Temple."
 * "The Hall of Justice houses the four orders of the Temple Ordinators: the Order of the Watch, the Order of War, the Order of Doctrine and Ordination, and the Order of the Inquisition."
 * "Grandmaster Berel Sala, chief Ordinator on Vvardenfell, has his offices there."
 * "That's where you are."

Hall of Wisdom

 * "The Hall of Wisdom houses scholars, monks, and priests who study and shape the doctrines of the Temple. The Hall of Wisdom is in the Temple Canton of Vivec."
 * "The Hall of Wisdom and Hall of Justice contain the executive, administrative, judicial, and martial operations of the Tribunal Temple. They're in the Temple Canton of Vivec."

Hall of the Dead

 * "That might be any Dunmer ancestral tomb. The ancient Dunmer word for ancestral tomb is 'cardruhn'. 'Ruhn' translates as 'home' or 'hearth-hall'. 'Card' means 'undeparted kin-wardens'. The sense is very close to your phrase 'Halls of the Dead'."
 * "I don't know. Such might refer to any ruin or tomb. Perhaps you should consult with a Dunmer savant. Such learned men are better suited to puzzle out the riddle words of vision and prophecy."

Hammerfell

 * "Hammerfell is primarily an urban and maritime province, with most of its population confined to the great port and trade cities. The interior is sparsely populated with small poor farms and beastherds. The Redguard love of travel, adventure, and the high seas has dispersed them as sailors, mercenaries, and adventurers in ports of call throughout the Empire."

hand to hand

 * "The hand-to-hand discipline is the martial art of unarmed combat. Inspired by the mystical martial arts disciplines of the Khajiit, this unarmed combat style has been adopted in the West by agents and thieves whose scruples forbid them to seriously injure or kill their opponents. Unlike weapon attacks, which only injure and kill, defeating an opponent in hand-to-hand combat renders him unconsciousness and helpless. However, once a target is unconscious, hand-to-hand attacks cause wounds and death."

heavy armor

 * "The heavy armor discipline is the study and mastery of iron, steel, silver, ebony, and Daedric armor styles. To use any style of armor effectively, the wearer must be trained, conditioned, and skilled in its use."

Hetman Abelmawia

 * "The Velothi Dunmer Hetman Abelmawia is the village hetman, and village steward for Hlaren Ramoran, Redoran Master, Councilor, Lord of Gnisis."

High Fane

 * "The High Fane is the largest Tribunal temple on Vvardenfell. Archcanon Saryoni presides over the temple, along with a large staff of priests, healers, and monks. Pilgrims travel from all over Morrowind to view the High Fane and the Ministry of Truth, and to offer prayer and thanks before the Palace of Vivec."

High Rock

 * "High Rock encompasses the many lands and clans of Greater Betony, the Dellese Isles, the Bjoulsae River tribes, and, by tradition, the Western Reach. The rugged highland strongholds and isolated valley settlements have encouraged the fierce independence of the various local Breton clans, and this contentious tribal nature has never been completely integrated into a provincial or Imperial identity. Nonetheless, their language, bardic traditions, and heroic legends are a unifying common legacy."

Hla Oad

 * "Hla Oad is a tiny isolated fishing village on western Vvardenfell in the Bitter Coast region. A rough track along the River Odai connects Hla Oad with Balmora. There's also silt strider service from Vivec."
 * "This is just a little fishing village on the Bitter Coast. A rough track along the River Odai connects Hla Oad with the town of Balmora across the hills to the northeast. And you can get a ship to Gnaar Mok or Ebonheart. Otherwise, it's a very long and unpleasant walk along the coast south to Seyda Neen, or a much longer and more unpleasant walk north to nowhere."

Hlaalu Compound

 * "Hlaalu Compound is the westmost canton. Councilor Crassius Curio has a splendid tier-top mansion here. The tiers below contain Hlaalu treasuries, records, holding cells, and various services. There are two public houses: the Elven Nations and the No Name Club. A variety of craftsmen and tradesmen also have shops at Hlaalu Compound. Some House Hlaalu nobles maintain residences in the less-formal St. Delyn and St. Olms cantons. Councilor Velanda Omani's manor is east of the city on Elmas Island."

Hortator's duty

 * "A Hortator is a champion who leads by inspiration. He challenges opposing heroes in single combat. He goes on long, desperate quests. He goes alone into the citadels of the enemy. He confronts the dangers no one else in the House is strong enough... or courageous enough... to face."
 * "Hortator is more a chief hero than a general. The councils plan and approve strategy. It's a terrible system. The Legions aren't like that. The generals ignore the politicians. And win the wars. But a Hortator leads by doing. The champion who wins every battle and inspires by example. The hero who challenges and defeats the opposing hero in single combat. Doesn't have to be polite or smart. Or even a nice person. Just has to win. And make others want to win."
 * "A Hortator is a champion who leads by inspiration. He challenges opposing heroes in single combat. He goes on long, desperate quests. He goes alone into the citadels of the enemy. He confronts the dangers no one else in the House is strong enough... or courageous enough... to face."

House Dres

 * "Of the five Dunmer Great Houses, House Dres is one of two houses without holdings or interest in Vvardenfell."
 * "Dres District is in the south of Morrowind, bordering the swamps and marshes of Black Marsh. House Dres is an agrarian agricultural society, and its large saltrice plantations rely completely on slave labor for their economic viability."
 * "Always firm Temple supporters, House Dres is hostile to Imperial law and culture, and in particular opposed to any attempts to limit the institution of slavery."

House Hlaalu

 * "House Hlaalu is one of the three Dunmer Great Houses with holdings on Vvardenfell."
 * "House Hlaalu has always been loyal to the Emperor and the Empire. Hlaalu welcomes Imperial law and the Legions, and freedom of trade and religion."
 * "House Hlaalu, the Great House that strongly supports the Empire, is ruled by traders and merchant princes."
 * "House Hlaalu is one of the three Dunmer Great Houses with holdings on Vvardenfell. House Hlaalu has always been loyal to the Emperor and the Empire. Hlaalu welcomes Imperial law and the Legions, and freedom of trade and religion. We still respect the old Dunmer ways, the ancestors, the Temple, and the noble houses. But times change, and the Empire changes with the times. House Hlaalu hopes to live in peace and harmony with the other races, and share in the growth and prosperity of the Empire."
 * "House Hlaalu still respects the old Dunmer ways, the ancestors, the Temple, and the noble houses. But times change, and the Empire changes with the times."
 * "House Hlaalu hopes to live in peace and harmony with the other races, and share in the growth and prosperity of the Empire."
 * "House Hlaalu is the only Great House that knows how to do business with the Empire. They are more tolerant of foreigners like myself and more willing to do business. They're not paranoid and insular like the Telvanni, nor do they try and covert you to the Tribunal Temple like House Redoran."
 * "If you wish to learn more of my House, go to Balmora."
 * "House Hlaalu has always been loyal to the Emperor. We welcome Imperial law and the legions, and the trade they bring. We still respect the old Dunmer ways, the ancestors, the Temple, and the noble houses. But times change, and we change with the times. We can live in harmony with the other races. And share in the prosperity of the Empire."
 * "If you wish to join my House, speak with Nileno Dorvayn at the Hlaalu Council Manor."
 * "Yes, we both belong to House Hlaalu. Are you here to discuss business?"

House Indoril

 * "House Indoril is one of the five Dunmer Great Houses, and one of the two houses without holdings or interest in Vvardenfell."
 * "The city of Almalexia is located in Indoril District, on the mainland, and the Indoril are orthodox and conservative supporters of the Temple and Temple authority."
 * "House Indoril is openly hostile to Imperial culture and religion, and preserves many traditional Dunmer customs and practices in defiance of Imperial law."

House Indoril is openly hostile to Imperial culture and religion, and preserves many traditional Dunmer customs and practices in defiance of Imperial law."

House Redoran

 * "Yes, this is the Redoran Canton of Vivec, but if you have business with House Redoran, you should travel to Ald'ruhn."
 * "Ald'ruhn is considered a Redoran city, even though only a few citizens actually belong to House Redoran."
 * "The Redoran Council Hall is here in Ald'ruhn under Skar. Go there if you want to know more about House Redoran."
 * "House Redoran is one of the three Great Houses on Vvardenfell. The Redoran prize the duty, gravity, and piety. They believe a light, careless life is not worth living. If you want to know more, go to Ald'ruhn, their seat of power."
 * "House Redoran is one of the three Dunmer Great Houses with holdings on Vvardenfell. The Redoran prize the virtues of duty, gravity, and piety. Duty is to one's own honor, and to one's family and clan. Gravity is the essential seriousness of life. Life is hard, and events must be judged, endured, and reflected upon with due care and earnestness. Piety is respect for the gods, and the virtues they represent. A light, careless life is not worth living."
 * "House Redoran is one of the three Great Houses on Vvardenfell. The Redorans are honorable and fair in their dealings with other houses, but they have no business sense. Those of us in House Hlaalu understand the power of wealth and do not ponder morality day after day."
 * "House Redoran is one of the three Great Houses on Vvardenfell. The Redorans talk and talk and talk about duty and honor and piety and their proper role in life. We Telvanni have a more pragmatic approach."
 * "They are the true warriors of the ancient Dunmer. Although House Hlaalu has adopted more of the Empire's ways, I have more respect for the warriors of House Redoran."
 * "I belong to House Redoran and serve honorably."
 * "We of House Redoran have the honor of serving the greatest and most noble House, for we are the righteous warriors and hereditary defenders of Morrowind."
 * "If you want to join House Redoran, speak with Neminda in the Redoran Council Hall."

House Telvanni

 * "Trebonius asked you to kill the Telvanni Council? I wouldn't even try to do that if I were you. Even if you were successful, there's no telling how the Telvanni would respond."
 * "House Telvanni is one of the three Dunmer Great Houses with holdings on Vvardenfell."
 * "The Telvanni wizard-lords have traditionally isolated themselves, pursuing wisdom and mastery in solitude. But certain ambitious wizards-lords have joined the competition to control and exploit Vvardenfell's land and resources, building towers and bases all along the eastern coast."
 * "The Telvanni think that wisdom confers power, and power confers right."
 * "House Telvanni is one of the three Dunmer Great Houses with holdings on Vvardenfell. The Telvanni wizard-lords have traditionally isolated themselves, pursuing wisdom and mastery in solitude. But certain ambitious wizards-lords, their retainers, and clients have entered whole-heartily into the competition to control and exploit Vvardenfell's land and resources, building towers and bases all along the eastern coast. The Telvanni think that wisdom confers power, and power confers right."
 * "We live comfortably. Our wizard-lords keep us secure, and otherwise leave us alone. All we want is to be left in peace to do as we wish."
 * "We don't care about politics. We don't care what other think. We just want to be left alone. And our wizard-lords and their mercenaries make sure no one bothers us."
 * "House Telvanni is one of the Great Houses. We value talent, knowledge, and initiative. Perhaps you would like to join House Telvanni?"
 * "I am [Name], one of the Councilors of House Telvanni. If you want to learn about House Telvanni, speak with my Mouth in the Telvanni Council House in Sadrith Mora."

House Wars

 * "The Great Houses have always fought private wars among themselves. Sometimes they fight about land, sometimes about wealth, sometimes about politics, sometimes about honor."
 * "The Dunmer Great Houses long ago adopted certain customs and rules to avoid open warfare. House Wars are supervised by the Temple, and private feuds and writs of assassination are contracted through the Morag Tong."
 * "By the immemorial custom of Dunmer society, a House may challenge the honor of another House in the person of one of the House's ranking nobles. The ranking noble of the impugned House is 'marked for death' -- in ancient times, actually formally marked with a black banner, but in modern times, served with a formal written public announcement. If within a year of the challenge, the marked noble still lives, the challenging House must publicly forego any further complaint or scandal on the matter."
 * Continue "Only a ranking challenging noble or a Morag Tong may attack the marked noble; in modern times, Houses routinely engage Morag Tong. This custom permits Houses to war upon one another on a small scale without threatening public peace and rule of law. Such violent disputes among Great Houses are called 'House Wars.'"
 * Continue "Codes of behavior under House Wars of Honor are complex and subtle, and the Morag Tong specialize in the honorable and legal prosecution of these factional vendettas. House Wars are expensive, dangerous, and disruptive to all Houses involved, but on the island of Vvardenfell alone, a dozen or more Marked Challenges are being prosecuted at any time."
 * "The Great Houses have always fought among themselves. Long ago they banded together against one house, House Dagoth, and falsely denounced the house as traitors, and thought to destroy House Dagoth for all eternity. But they failed, for House Dagoth was but sleeping, and now has awakened. Now all the Great Houses must join House Dagoth to drive the foreigners and false gods from our soil."

Humanoid Races

 * "Elves consider themselves the only 'truly human race,' being descended directly from the gods, and regard the Manish and Beast races as highly intelligent animals. On the other hand, Imperial scholars consider Men, Elves, and Beastmen as 'men,' on the basis that individuals of all three groups can mate with one another."
 * Continue "Offspring of inter-racial matings have the racial appearance of the mother, but may occasionally share inherited characteristics and abilities of the father. Sloads, dragons, and other sentient races cannot mate with Men, Elves, or Beastmen, and are not considered 'human.' Exceptional accounts of matings between men and daedra do not fit smoothly into this scheme."

Humans

 * "The human races are short-lived, socially aggressive humanoids, shorter than Elves and more technologically advanced than the Beastfolk. Warlike human cultures have subjugated their Elven and Beastfolk neighbors and synthesized their arts, literature, magick, technology, and theology into Tamriel's dominant culture -- the Empire. Obsessed with progress and destiny, human civilization constantly reinvents itself from materials plundered from conquered cultures and re-shaped by human myths and dreams."

illusion

 * "The illusion discipline is the mastery of the spell effects of the College of Illusion. The illusion spells affect the perception and mind of living subjects. Illusion effects include blinding, paralyzing, and silencing subjects, calming and enraging subjects, and distracting observers so they do not notice the caster -- the invisibility effect."

Ilunibi

 * "There's an old sea cave nearby, called Ilunibi Caverns, up on the north end of the island, right on Khartag Point. Nothing but rats and slaughterfish. Sometimes smugglers and outlaws use it for a hide-out, but it's wet and nasty, and not real comfortable."
 * "Ilunibi Caverns. That's what they call the old sea cave up on the north end of the island, right on Khartag Point. Don't be poking your nose in there. Someone might object."
 * "Ilunibi Caverns. That's what they call the old sea cave up on the north end of the island, right on Khartag Point. Don't poke around in there. It's a convenient smuggler's hole, and they might not welcome visitors."

Imperial

 * "The Imperials are clever, industrious thieves and con men. Their legions are invincible, but individually they are weak and cowardly. Their civilization is a shabby imitation of High Elven culture, cheapened by the common greed and grasping nature of their merchants and monopolists. They have subjugated and enslaved the various peoples of Tamriel, and called this coerced submission 'peace.'"
 * "The Imperials are the educated and well-spoken natives of the civilized, cosmopolitan province of Cyrodiil. Imperials are known for their enlightened rule of law and government, and the discipline and training of their citizen armies. Though physically less imposing than the other races, they are shrewd diplomats and traders. Their legions have enabled them to subdue all the other nations and races of Tamriel, and to have erected the monument to peace and prosperity that comprises the Glorious Empire."
 * "Our civilization has brought peace and prosperity to all Tamriel. We place our faith in hard work, education, and discipline. We prefer free trade and diplomacy, but are not ashamed to use force."
 * "The Imperials came out of the West and tricked the gods of the settled people, the false gods called the Tribunal. Now the Imperials act like they own Morrowind, and they claim we are ruled by their chief, the one they call Emperor. We think nothing of this foolishness, but they have great armies of soldiers in armor who come and burn our yurts and slay our children. So we hate them, but we must remember to be quiet and patient and cunning, as Boethiah has taught us."

Imperial Blades

 * "The Blades is an prestigious service order for citizens demonstrating the greatest loyalty to the Emperor. To be named to the Blades by the Emperor is a great honor, and publicly acknowledged members serve openly in noble courts and diplomatic posts. Privately, many Blades members act as the Empire's intelligence agency. Such agents conceal themselves with secret identities, operating in disguise as couriers, observers, and spies throughout the Empire."

Imperial corruption

 * "The guys who are making the REAL money are the tax agents and bureaucrats. They take their percentages off the top."
 * "The people who control the wealth in Vvardenfell are the tax agents and bureaucrats. They skim the liquor off the scuttle."
 * "And how do you think it was that bloated Imperial plutocrats got the charter to exploit the Caldera ebony deposits, and not a native Great House or local colonist? Big fat bribes, I tell you. And friends in high places."

Imperial cult

 * "Balmora's Imperial cult shrine is outside of town to the southeast, in Fort Moonmoth. Aldasi Thirothran is the priest in charge there. The altar there cures disease and poison, and they offer various other services as well."

 * "Ald'ruhn's Imperial cult shrine is in Fort Buckmoth, south of town. The altar there cures disease and poison. Cocistian Quaspus, the apothecary, sells cure potions, and they also have a savant, an enchanter, and a trader."
 * "Ebonheart's Imperial cult shrine is in a small walled keep in the far western end of Castle Ebonheart. The altar there cures disease and poison. Lalatia Varian is the Imperial Priestess, Synnolian Tunifus, the Mara Healer, Kaye the Zenithar Trader, and Iulus Truptor, the Stendarr Savant."
 * "The Gnisis Imperial cult shrine is in Fort Darius at the far east edge of town. The altar there cures disease and poison. Chaplain Ogrul is the cult Healer for the Deathshead Legion garrison, but he also serves the civilian populace as well."
 * "The Sadrith Mora Imperial cult shrine is in Wolverine Hall on the coast at the south edge of town. The altar there cures disease and poison. Aunius Autrus is the Imperial Priest, and Scelian Plebo the Healer has curing potions for sale."
 * "The Imperial cult is the official Imperial religion. The cult worships the Nine Divines. Imperial cult priests serve Imperial shrines in settlements throughout Vvardenfell."
 * "Imperial law supports and protects the Imperial cult, but the Nine Divines are neither gods nor worthy ancestors, and their worship is just foolish superstition."
 * "Imperial cult priests provide worship and services for the Nine Divines at Imperial shrines in settlements throughout Vvardenfell."
 * "The Imperial cult worships the Nine Divines: Akatosh, Dibella, Arkay, Zenithar, Mara, Stendarr, Kynareth, Julianos, and Tiber Septim."
 * "The Imperial cult combines the worship of the Aedra Akatosh, Dibella, Arkay, Zenithar, Mara, Stendarr, Kynareth, and Julianos, with worship of the divine god-hero Tiber Septim, founder and patron of the Empire."
 * "The missionary arm of the great faiths, the Imperial cult brings divine inspiration and consolation to the Empire's remote provinces."

Imperial cult doctrine

 * "We look to the Nine Divines as models for living a good and virtuous life. Each of the Nine represent different aspects of life, and how it should be lived. But the simplest statement of our doctrines is -- help and protect one another. The stronger one is, the wealthier one is, the more one bears responsibility for helping and protecting others. One's first duty, of course, is to one's fellow members of the Imperial Cult. But after that, one should help and protect any needy persons."
 * Continue "We also say -- do not harm one another. It is forbidden to attack another person of the Imperial cult, and of course, forbidden to kill another member. It is forbidden to steal from another member, whether by open theft or by covert pickpocketing. It is forbidden to trespass upon the private property of another member -- private property being understood to be anything behind a locked door. Break any one of these rules, and be expelled from the cult."

Imperial culture

 * "Imperial culture is a pragmatic melting pot of the various contrasting cultures of the Imperial provinces, unified by a strong hereditary emperor and bureaucracy, the rule of law, a powerful professional army, and tolerance of disparate polytheistic cult worships. Education and wealth is broadly distributed through all social classes where Imperial culture has flourished; many citizens are literate and protected under Imperial law."
 * Continue "Persons of all races and creeds can advance in wealth and status in commerce, the bureaucracy, and the military. However, moral and political corruption at the highest levels of Imperial society, and the economic strain of maintaining military occupations in widely separated hostile provinces like Morrowind, signals the impending decline of the Empire."

Imperial Guard

 * "The Imperial Guard is an elite unit of the Imperial Legion. The Guard is charged with the defense of the Emperor and various of his direct representatives in the provinces. The Duke's rank and responsibilities entitle him to the protection of this elite unit. There is a traditional rivalry between the Imperial Guard and their counterparts in the regular Legions."

Imperial guilds

 * "In the Western Empire, mercenaries and adventurers have organized themselves into guilds to promote the welfare of the members, to serve as a clearinghouse for information and employment opportunities, and to provide services and training for the members. The Fighters Guild and the Mages Guild are official trade guilds, chartered by the Emperor. The Thieves Guild is a private, informal, and semi-secret organization. Each of the Guilds provides training in what are called the Guild disciplines."

Imperial law

 * "Don't steal. Don't brawl or start fights. Don't kill, except in self-defense. If you're caught, guards will let you choose your punishment: fines or hard labor."
 * "We uphold Imperial law as well as the laws of the Temple. We enforce the laws against theft, brawling, verbal assault, and murder. Guards like me determine your punishment, whether you may pay fines and compensation, or must serve hard labor."
 * "An adventurer should know the basics of Imperial law concerning life and property. Verbal assault, pickpocketing, and trespassing are minor crimes, punished by fines or hard labor. Theft and foul murder are felonies. Theft is punished by fines proportional to the value of the property stolen, or by hard labor. Foul murder is punishable by fines of at least 1000 drakes, or by hard labor."
 * Continue "Fines and compensation are determined by magistrates, and may be paid to guards. In place of fines, the criminal may serve extended sentences of hard labor. The workcamps are hard places for hard men, and for each day served, expect to lose some hard-earned skill as a result of physical, mental, or emotional punishment."

Imperial Legion

 * "We're here to uphold the law and protect everyone from folks like you. Now get on with it."
 * "The most disciplined and effective military force in history, the Imperial Legions preserve the peace and rule of law in the Empire."
 * "We have garrisons at Fort Pelagiad in Pelagiad, Hawkmoth Fort in Ebonheart, Fort Moonmoth in Balmora, Fort Buckmoth in Ald'ruhn, and Fort Darius in Gnisis. Were you looking to join the Imperial Legion?"
 * "The legions hire qualified recruits of proven skill and character, and provide training, goods, and services at discounts. The lower ranks are common troopers and officers, but the upper ranks include the orders of the Imperial knights."
 * "The most disciplined and effective military force in history, the Imperial Legions preserve the peace and rule of law in the Empire. The legions have garrisons in the major settlements of Vvardenfell, but the units mostly serve as guards to enforce the law in Morrowind. The legions hire qualified recruits of proven skill and character, and provide training, goods, and services at discounts. The lower ranks are common troopers and officers, but the upper ranks include the orders of the Imperial knights."
 * "For the glory of Tiber Septim, you and I should be honored to be in its service."

Imperial neighbors

 * "Imperials are apes posing as civilized beings. we respect Imperial. They can make armies from peasants, and are hard workers and gifted engineers. But Imperials lack of honor and refinement, and we despise their mercantile greed and mongrelized culture."
 * "Native Dunmer regard Imperials as apes posing as civilized beings. The Dunmer respect Imperial cunning in creating organized armies from peasants, and admire their engineering and work ethic, but they scorn their lack of honor and refinement, and they despise their crass commercialism and tolerance of cultural mongrelization."

Imperial Office of Census and Excise

 * "Imperial taxes are based on head counts of citizens; Census and Excise is responsible both for head counts and tax assessment and collection. Census and Excise officers also administer many Imperial licenses -- importation, mercenary company incorporation, for example."

Imperial provinces

 * "The Empire of Tamriel encompasses the nine Imperial provinces: Skyrim, High Rock, Hammerfell, Summerset Isle, Valenwood, Elsweyr, Black Marsh, Morrowind, and the ancient Imperial province itself, Cyrodiil. Morrowind was among the last of the provinces to be integrated into the Empire, and because it was added by treaty, and not by conquest, Morrowind retains exceptional power to define local law by reference to ancient Great House precedents."

Imperial urban style

 * "Imperial urban style mixes with Dunmer urban style in Hlaalu District and Vivec suburbs, but dominates in new Hlaalu and Imperial chartered towns. Houses, shops, and tradehouses are of timbered, half-timbered, or stone construction in the Western manner, with peaked roofs, right angles and flat planes, and plain, undecorated exteriors."

Inner Sea

 * "The waters enclosed between mainland Morrowind and Vvardenfell Island are called the Inner Sea."

inside the Ghostfence

 * "All our intelligence is old. No one has ventured far inside the fence for years. This map shows the locations of the citadels of the various ash vampires. Sixth House creatures have become more numerous and powerful, and the most powerful can conjure powerful daedra. Until recently, we've been able to clear routes and keep them clean with raids, but no longer. There are no safe refuges or services inside the fence; you must return here to rest and heal."

joining Great Houses

 * "Outlanders may join a Great House. Initially one gains status as an hireling, pledging exclusive loyalty to a given house, but with faithful service and advancement in lower ranks, an outlander may prove his worth."
 * "Adoption and advancement to higher ranks in a Great House requires that a councilor stand as sponsor for the candidate's character and loyalty. Finding a councilor to sponsor an outlander often involves performing a great service for the prospective sponsor."

Khajiit

 * "The Khajiit are the cat people of the province of Elsweyr. Though the race has a variety of sub-types, each with different forms and habits, only the smooth, quick, agile Suthay-raht are encountered in Vvardenfell. When most people think of Suthay-raht, they think of thieves -- with good reason, since many Suthay-raht are cunning, acquisitive, and slow to embrace the sanctity of personal property. But the speed, agility, and bold spirit of the Suthay-raht also make them gifted traders and adventurers."
 * "Khajiit are clever animals, and useful servants when trained from early youth, and so long as they are kept away from skooma. They are compulsive thieves and liars, lamentable traits that can be amended by stern punishment. By Imperial law, free Khajiit have the rights of citizens. Now there are Khajiit thieves everywhere."
 * "Suthay-raht make good jumpers and sneakers, but not good warriors like the Cathay-raht."
 * "The Khajiit are savage half-men of the southern deserts and jungles. They are ignorant and superstitious, but they are clever and dangerous. Our fathers used to keep them as slaves, but they are sneaky and untrustworthy. The settled people still keep them as slaves to feed them and keep their great houses clean."
 * "Some Khajiit are thieves, others are very good thieves."

Khartag Point

 * "Going to Khartag Point, are you? You'll find that on the western coast not far from Gnaar Mok. Nothing there but a big rock. Don't know why anyone cares about it."
 * "Yes, that's on the western coast, not far from here. It's a gigantic boulder. Some of the orcs consider it a landmark. Why, I don't know. Some orc or another jumped off on a dare. It didn't end well."
 * "Glorious Khartag Point! Very famous for orcs. Great hero Khartag who had fought some battle or something died there. Very famous."
 * "I've heard there are some changes at Khartag Point. Some daedric statue or other there now. And it was carved by some orc! Imagine that."
 * "Well, I guess the new statue there isn't bad, even for an orc sculptor."
 * "Oh, Khartag Point has changed I hear. Now, have to climb up big ugly statue to jump. Still good time, though. Can't wait to see if new statue is as high as rock it carved from."

Khuul

 * "Khuul is a tiny fishing village on the northern coast of the West Gash."
 * "Khuul is just a fishing village. Not much else here. You can rent a bed at Thongar's Tradehouse. But other than the Daedric ruins to the southwest, there's not much around here worth looking at."

killing and murder

 * "According to Imperial custom, killing is justifiable in war, self-defense, defense of property, and affairs of honor. Other killings are murder, and punishable by fines and compensation, or by punitive labor."
 * "Local custom permits killing in House Wars when sanctioned by the state."
 * "Outlaws have no rights, and may be killed without scandal or sanction. Guards may use deadly force in the line of duty."
 * "According to Imperial custom, killing is justifiable in war, self-defense, defense of property, and affairs of honor. Other killings are murder, and punishable by fines and compensation, or by punitive labor."
 * "Killing is justifiable in war, self-defense, defense of property, affairs of honor, Great House affairs under the sanction of the state, and affairs of heresy. Other killings are foul murder, and punishable by compensation, punitive labor, or, in sanctioned House Wars affairs, by writ of assassination."
 * Continue "Justifiable but unnecessary or cruel killing is sinful, punishable by Temple courts, but not illegal under Imperial law. The justice of killing heretics is a source of bitter controversy among contemporary Temple authorities. Killing heretics is against Imperial law, but not dishonorable or scandalous."
 * "According to Telvanni custom, killing is justifiable on any practical grounds -- in particular, justifiable if you can get away with it, and it serves your purposes. Killing is neither sinful nor dishonorable. Telvanni abide by Imperial law only so far as it is enforced. No Imperial guards or Legion garrisons are found in most Telvanni settlements."
 * "Killing is justifiable when you can get away with it, and it serves your purposes."
 * "Killing is useful to educate and intimidate others, especially when brutal, cruel, and arbitrary."
 * "Killing is neither sinful nor dishonorable, but may be imprudent or wasteful."
 * "By House Hlaalu law and custom, killing is justifiable in war, self-defense, defense of property, affairs of honor, and House Wars affairs under the sanction of the state. Other killings are foul murder and punishable by compensation, punitive labor, or, in sanctioned House Wars affairs, by writ of assassination. Justifiable but unnecessary or cruel killing is scandalous but legal. A cynical acceptable of abuse of power by the rich and powerful is a feature of Hlaalu philosophy."
 * "According to the unwritten Code of the Thieves Guild, killing is always inefficient, inelegant, and counter-productive."
 * "A reputation for respecting life is good for business, and the Thieves Guild is very sensitive to public opinion."
 * "Unnecessary killing may be grounds for expulsion from the Guild."
 * "By House Redoran custom, killing is justified in war, self-defense, defense of property, affairs of honor, and House Wars affairs. Other killings are foul murder, and punishable by fines, hard labor, or writ of assassination."
 * "Justifiable but unnecessary or cruel killing is scandalous, and grounds for sanction or expulsion."
 * "An opponent who yields may not be slain honorably."
 * "According Morag Tong custom, killing civilians is scandalous, and grounds for expulsion."
 * "For the Morag Tong, killing anyone but a victim marked by writ is dishonorable, a sign of incompetence and disrespect for the Tong, and grounds for sanction or expulsion."
 * "Killing a victim marked by a writ is sacred and honorable."

kwama

 * "Kwama colonies, also known as eggmines, are inhabited by the following varieties of kwama: kwama queen, kwama warrior, kwama worker, kwama forager, and scrib."

kwama forager

 * "The kwama forager scouts the surface of the land and natural underground passages, searching for suitable locations for new colonies, and hunting for prey. Foragers are aggressive but not very dangerous."

kwama queen

 * "The kwama queen is the huge, bloated kwama that produces the nest's eggs. They are too large and fat to move, and all their needs are attended by worker kwama."

kwama warrior

 * "The kwama warrior defends the kwama colony's tunnels and chambers. Warriors are aggressive and dangerous."

kwama worker

 * "The kwama worker digs the colony's tunnels and chambers and tends the queen and the eggs. Workers are unaggressive, but not completely helpless."

Kynareth

 * "Kynareth, Goddess of Air, is the deity of the heavens, the winds, the elements, and the unseen spirits of the air. Patron of sailors and travelers, Kynareth is invoked for auspicious stars at birth and for good fortune in daily life."

latest rumors

 * "Have you noticed, for all its proclamations about protecting the rights of property and preserving law and order, the Imperial legion does little enough to capture and prosecute abolitionists? That's a bit hypocritical, don't you think?"
 * "At first, it seemed the fuss about the Nerevarine prophecy was just silly superstition. Then I learned that the Dunmer have been waiting for Lord Nerevar to come back for centuries. The 'Incarnate', they call it. Every few years an Ashlander appears, and the tribes call him the Incarnate. Then the Temple goes out, hunts him down, and reveals him as a fake. Why does the Temple worry so much about it?"
 * "I must tell you, all this self-righteous Western clamor against slavery is really tiresome. Our right to own slaves is protected by law -- IMPERIAL law. People who free slaves are breaking the law. It's as simple as that."
 * "These Imperial tax collectors have really started to get on everyone's nerves. Haven't seen the local one in a while, though...not that anyone is complaining."
 * "I've heard that the local tax collector, Processus Vitellius, is missing. No surprise, really. He wasn't well liked around here."
 * "Have you seen Ienas Sarandas lately? What a remarkably good-looking young man he is. And so tastefully dressed. I thought I heard something about him having a little money trouble, but you'd never think it to look at him. And I hear he has become a prisoner of strong drink. That would never have happened while his devout, Temple-fearing parents were alive."
 * "I heard how you handled that affair with Ienas Sarandas. And a very pretty thing you did. The town's merchant's think the world of you. The word is all over town. Have you heard he has given his house to the Temple and is studying to be a priest at the Ald'ruhn Temple?"
 * "I heard how you handled that affair with Ienas Sarandas. And a very pretty thing you did. The word is all over town. Have you heard he has given his house to the Temple and is studying to be a priest at the Ald'ruhn Temple?"
 * "I heard how you handled that affair with Ienas Sarandas. I hear Ienas Sarandas was found dead in his home. I don't suppose YOU had anything to do with that? Of course, there were no witnesses. But everyone knows you killed that poor fool. Don't think anyone here will forgive you for that."
 * "Redoran is not going to stand by and watch Telvanni setting up those bases without a charter. Ever since we let the Telvanni get away with Tel Vos, they've been sending out wizards and mercenaries to stake their claims on promising sites. And if we don't do something about it, those damn necromancers will end up on our doorsteps."
 * "Athyn Sarethi may be the 'Hope of the Redoran,' but someone wants him dead. He's fended off three Morag Tong attacks already."
 * "Morvayn Manor was overrun by corprus monsters. I thought they couldn't get out of the Ghostfence."
 * "House Redoran isn't going to let those Hlaalu take Caldera and the ebony mines without a fight. Caldera is traditionally House Redoran territory, so we are the ones who should have the charter. As soon as we have proof that the Hlaalu are cheating the Empire, we'll take Caldera back by force."
 * "There's a ban on new Great House settlements without Duke Dren's approval, but rogue Telvanni are developing sites in defiance of the Duke's orders. I hear these rogue Telvanni are just ambitious hedgewizards -- not full-blown Telvanni mage-lords -- so they might be easy pickings."
 * "Everyone says Varvur Sarethi murdered Bralen Carvaren, but I don't believe it. They were the best of friends."
 * "These outlanders won't be happy until slavery is outlawed. Personally, I don't want slaves. No one I know has any. But it's our right to have slaves, by law and custom, and it's none of their damn business."
 * "The other day a Redoran in Vivec refused a duel. With cowards even in House Redoran, who will protect us next time the Nords invade?"
 * "Did you hear Bolvyn Venim killed another outlander in a duel. The man was an officer in the House Guard, but Bolvyn Venim insulted his ancestors at a meal, so of course the officer had to demand satisfaction. And of course he had no chance against Venim. So it was murder, really. You're an outlander, yes? Then take warning. Be very careful in your dealings with Venim. Or, better yet, stay away from him."
 * "Some Ashlanders near Maar Gan have been bragging about how they captured a famous noble. I wonder who it is."
 * "The guar herders west of Ald'ruhn were having trouble with bandits."
 * "You won't believe what old Avus said yesterday. 'I could live in a nutshell and be consumed with infinite space were it not that I have bad dreams.' What the hell is he talking about?"
 * "A guard found Naryn walking around in his nightshirt near the fort. He said he didn't remember how he got there. Sounds to me like he's getting old before his time."
 * "It's not bad enough with the blight storms this year, but the Ashlanders are also going crazy, jumping caravans and pilgrims, raiding villages, scrapping with the Legions. They ought to send the Legions out and teach them a lesson."
 * "Why is everybody so grouchy and tired lately? You don't suppose folks are all having bad dreams all at once? I'm not saying I'm having bad dreams. No, sera, not at all. I'm fine. But you do hear folks talking among themselves sometimes. About having bad dreams and not being able to sleep nights."
 * "Yeah. Right. The Temple SAYS this Peakstar heretic is dead. But did they produce a body? I don't see no body."
 * "Everyone knows who really runs House Hlaalu. It's not the councilors. No one sits on that council unless it suits Orvas Dren."
 * "Well, the Temple has always said that madness is a soul sickness, and a sign of sin. But in the Empire, they say it's just another kind of disease."
 * "Look. It's not just the crops and herds. The blight storms are making everyone sick. It's not an easy cure, even for a Temple, and all they've got in the backcountry is the odd healer and pilgrim shrine."
 * "I heard Bolvyn Venim was having an affair with the wife of one of the other Councilors."
 * "House Hlaalu would much rather have the Caldera charter, thank you very much, and run those ebony mines ourselves. But it hasn't worked out so badly. The Imperial Caldera Mining Company is laying out the cash and doing the work, and we're talking the cream off the top in graft and bribes. No wonder Redoran is angry. And when they're angry, they're dangerous."
 * "These outlanders won't be happy until slavery is outlawed. Our plantations depend on slaves, mostly down south in Dres District, but here in the Ascadian Isles, too. It's our right to have slaves, by law and custom, and it's none of their damn business."
 * "Uriel Septim is sick, and wizards say his heir, Geldall Septim, and the younger Septims, Enman and Ebel, are just doppelgangers placed in the household during Jagar Tharn's tenure as Imperial Battlemage. They say the Guard charged a mob demanding destruction of the false heirs -- lots of folks were killed."
 * "House Redoran is really steamed up about the Caldera land grab. They say that Caldera is in their territory, and that they should have gotten the charter. Worse yet, they say that Hlaalu is skimming the top off the Imperial fatcat company that got the charter. Since it's an Imperial company, Redoran can't even get a House War contract on it. It'll come to violence, you mark my words."
 * "Odral Helvi was arrested on charges of smuggling. It seems someone he hired for a delivery of smuggled ebony turned him over to the authorities. Now Helvi's cooling his heels in some lockup on the mainland, awaiting trial."
 * "I heard a shipmaster on the Tel Mora-Dagon Fel run dropped a group of wizards and mercenaries off on a little island somewhere. Think that was a bunch of rogue Telvanni planning to set up a base?"
 * "Kirginia is back in Dagon Fel. And when you see Kirginia, you know there's smuggling going on."
 * "With all the unrest in Cyrodiil City, a trooper told me they might have to recall the Legions to protect the Emperor."
 * "The smugglers working out of Shurinbaal lost their contact in Balmora. I hear they're working now with someone in Ald'ruhn."
 * "Yes, I've heard what Bilsa Andaram has been saying. Of course they're smugglers on the West Gash coast. When was that ever news?"
 * "Some strange men came through here not long ago. Stopped by Thongar's Tradehouse. Tight-lipped, suspicious bunch."
 * "It was inevitable. The local criminal organization, the Camonna Tong, wasn't going to stand by and let the Thieves Guild set up shop in their territory. It'll be bloody. And the Thieves Guild doesn't stand a chance."
 * "Some Ashlanders nearby have been bragging about how they captured a famous noble. I wonder who it is."
 * "Tilena Thalor will never stop smuggling. It's all she knows. And if you see her here in Maar Gan, she's got something going on. But where?"
 * "Did you hear about the pilgrims headed east of Lake Nabia, northwest of Mount Kand. That's no place for a party of pilgrims."
 * "It's the law of Morrowind. Slavery is legal. The Empire doesn't like it, but the Emperor signed the Armistice, and that made it legal for the Dunmer to retain their ancient laws and customs. Now, there's some Abolitionists who say, 'To hell with the law... slavery is wrong.' I'm not saying I disagree, in theory. But it's the law."
 * "A rumor says the Emperor has repealed the War Tax. We've heard nothing official here, but it's about damn time. We haven't had a war in ten years."
 * "And how do you think it was that bloated Imperial plutocrats got the charter to exploit the Caldera ebony deposits, and not a native Great House or local colonist? Big fat bribes, I tell you. And friends in high places."
 * "We've been fortunate. We tested the resolve of the Duke and the other Houses when we grabbed Tel Vos. And we found out they weren't going to fight to protect the settlement charters, we sent out our deviants and malcontents to stake new claims. Some will survive, some won't. Hlaalu and Redoran have to respond. But in the end, the ones that survive will extend our power and influence here on Vvardenfell."
 * "These outlanders won't be happy until slavery is outlawed. I don't know what I'd do without slaves. Hire some shiftless, untrustworthy, evil-smelling pauper? It's our right to have slaves, by law and custom, and it's none of their damn business."
 * "Of course, most Mages Guild wizards are pathetic clowns. But I must admit, that lizard that goes by the barbarous title of 'Skink-in-Tree's-Shade' is a very astute practitioner, almost as sage and learned as Telvanni aspirants five times his age. But I have heard he carries his anti-slavery politics a little too far, and much farther than Imperial law allows."
 * "The Temple forbids the worship of the four bad Daedra -- Mehrunes Dagon, Malacath, Molag Bal, and Sheogorath. But it's a big island, and there's a lot of wilderness, with lots of old Daedric ruins just waiting for a new group of worshippers. The Ordinators have their hands full with heretics and dissidents at home. They can't go out chasing Daedra lovers."
 * "This caravaner friend of mine says that with so many more blight storms around Red Mountain this year than last year, he's thinking about getting out of the business."
 * "Narese Athrys found a rogue Telvanni base out in the middle of the ashlands, but she used Almsivi Intervention to escape, and now she doesn't know exactly where the base was."
 * "Wonder where those young Telvanni were headed with all that gear? Shipmaster said they had quite a load."
 * "You know, I just heard someone say they'd heard about smugglers on the coast around here. Sorry. I don't remember the details."
 * "Did you hear they stuck that Dissident Priests guy Malur Omayn in the Ministry of Truth? I guess the Temple Priests and Ordinators figure they can straighten him out in there. I'll bet they can."
 * "Have you heard? Seven victims? Here in Vivec? All with their throats slit? When it was just a few outlanders killed, the Ordinators weren't making much fuss. But now that they've had two of their own people with slit throats, they seem very concerned at the Hall of Justice. I've heard that the Office of the Watch is quietly looking around for some special help. Anything that can kill TWO Ordinators before they can draw their weapons sounds like it will NEED special help."
 * "What could kill two Ordinators before they can draw their weapons? Slit their throats? Happened right here in Vivec. Got to be a sorcerer or vampire. The Office of the Watch in the Hall of Justice is worried about sending their own Ordinators out after this killer. The rumor is that the Office of the Watch is looking for outside help. You're an outlander. Did you know five other outlanders were killed just the same way?"
 * "You've got to hand it to the little daemon-charmers. They surprised us. The Telvanni got these little groups squatting down all over the island, and we've done little to stop them. They're going to be tough to root out. It's going to cost money and lives. But we better make the investment now, before it's too late."
 * "The guys who are making the REAL money are the tax agents and bureaucrats. They take their percentages off the top."
 * "I hear there's a secret organization called the Twin Lamps. It helps runaway slaves escape. It's against the law to aid runaway slaves. But I think slavery is wrong, and I can understand why these Abolitionists would be willing to break the law."
 * "House Redoran has been sending groups of mercenaries against the rogue Telvanni bases cropping up out in Molag Amur and the Ashlands. They don't seem to be having much luck, even though these rogue Telvanni are small fry compared to the mage-lords of the Telvanni towers. Maybe the hard-headed Redorans are sticking too closely to the armored-knight charge-and-bash drill. Maybe someone with a little subtlety might do better."
 * "I heard someone kidnapped Miner Arobar's daughter."
 * "House Redoran has been sending groups of mercenaries against the rogue Telvanni bases cropping up out in Molag Amur and the Ashlands.

Maybe the hard-headed Redorans are sticking too closely to the armored-knight charge-and-bash drill. Maybe someone with a little subtlety might do better."
 * "Now that they found Lesley's little hole over by Ebonheart, where do you suppose she's moved her operation? It's got to be close by, with the volume of stuff she's smuggling."
 * "So Herd the Bandit has become Herd the Pirate? I guess he's decided to try his luck with sea-going banditry. How do you like the idea of Herd and his mob in a boat? I hope they've invested in water-breathing potions."
 * "The Office of the Watch says they got the one who killed the two Ordinators. They didn't say how. But I heard it was an outlander that tracked the killer down. And I also heard the outlander was a [PC Race] that looked a lot like you. What a remarkable coincidence."
 * "I've been hearing of a lot of people with bad dreams, seeing bad omens, stuff like that. Haven't you?"
 * "You'd think she'd be more discreet, seeing as how the Duke's her father. But Ilmene Dren is a strong-willed young woman, and she hates slavery with a passion. Her family's wealth and influence means nothing to her. She's proud of living in a St. Delyn slum. And she doesn't mind being seen with known abolitionists like that bookseller, Jobasha."
 * "Have you noticed? People staying up until all hours of the night? Walking the streets? Tradesmen open all the time? Strange. Like they can't get to sleep or something. Or don't want to go to sleep. Maybe something in their sleep is bothering them. If you follow my meaning."
 * "I'm telling you, it's making me worried. My neighbor was outside in the middle of the night last night, running around, talking nonsense, and in the morning, he doesn't remember a thing about it. Those scholars talk stuff about delusion diseases and such. What the hell does that mean? And why can't the priests cure it?"
 * "The blight storms have been really bad this year. My friend who makes the Maar Gan pilgrimage every year got caught in a real doozy. He was in a pretty bad way until they got him back to a Temple."
 * "It's not just the blight storms that're bad this year. They got all sorts of blighted beasts coming down from the mountain. It's pretty bad on the trails and in the outback villages."
 * "It's strange, isn't it? Lots of people I know are having bad dreams. Seeing strange visions. Acting funny. The Tribunal Temple just goes on and on about sin and wickedness, but they're just religious fanatics. It is odd. Wonder if it has anything to do with all the blight storms this year?"
 * "I know they announced it a while ago, but now the Temple Priests and Ordinators are really going after heretics, especially Dissident Priests."
 * "People seem tired lately. Everybody is talking about it, giving all sorts of excuses -- the weather, noise, over-work, worries. But you also hear some people talking quietly about having bad dreams. You know the Temple doesn't want to hear that stuff, and folks keep it to themselves. But it would explain a lot."
 * "Madness is a sickness in the soul. It comes from a lack of faith, and a love of sin. All this talk of bad dreams and bad omens, superstition... it's just a sign that people have abandoned the Temple and fallen into greed and wickedness."
 * "Someone's been selling strange red statues in Ald'ruhn."
 * "It feels like everyone's working too hard, trying to live the Good Life. Seems like everyone I talk to is always tired. Just not getting enough sleep."
 * "Everybody's complaining about not getting enough sleep. Maybe it's the weather."
 * "I tell you. This Peakstar? The Temple says she's dead. So how could she be the Nerevarine if she's dead?"
 * "The blight storms have been so bad around Red Mountain this year that the crops and herds of the outlying villages are really suffering. The price of everything is got to go up."
 * "I hear the same thing from everybody. Everybody's feeling tired. Wonder if something is going around."
 * "Tanusea Veloth has the Divine Disease, but she refuses to leave the city."
 * "A sailor from Soulrest says he heard the Expeditionary Force has put down the tribal uprisings in Black Marsh. He says local traders expect exports of gold and timber to resume after the plantations and mines are rebuilt."
 * "You know what I heard about Baram? The other day he woke up in the Temple, but couldn't remember how he got there or why he went there. He made a big joke of it, saying he must have tied one on last night, and forgot all about it."
 * "Our new mage-lord, Master Aryon, has done a lot for Tel Vos, and most of us are very happy with him. But he is still having trouble with the nearby Zainab Ashlander tribe. Part of the problem is that we settled villagers and the Ashlander nomads don't really understand each other very well. Aryon's captain, Turedus Talanian, is looking for someone who can help forge a bond with the Zainab. If you know anything about Ashlanders, you might be able to help them out."
 * "The Legion Champion, Larrius Varro, over at Moonmoth Legion Fort, has sworn an oath to stop corruption. He hasn't had much luck going through official channels. The syndicates have got their people covered coming and going. He'll never get anywhere working through the system. He's going to have to find someone who can get him around the system. Or through the system. Like straight and HARD through the system."
 * "People don't realize how deeply the Dark Elves resent the Occupation. The real powers behind the Hlaalu council, Orvas Dren and his Camonna Tong syndicate, nurse those ancient resentments. They haven't a chance of challenging Imperial authority now, but if the stability of the Empire were threatened -- for example, if the legions were recalled because of some problem with the Septim succession -- Dren and the Tong might move openly to drive the Imperials out of Morrowind."
 * "Everyone knows the Balmora magistrate, Nolus Atrius, is on the take. Thieves, thugs, and murderers are getting ridiculous sentences, or paying a drake and walking free. But they'll never get Atrius. He's got fatcats and family back in the City to cover him. The Legion Champion, Larrius Varro, over at Moonmoth Legion Fort, he has sworn an oath to stop corruption. But I don't see what he can do."
 * "They say someone hit the Camonna Tong at the Council Club. Hard. And the guards SAY they're very concerned, and they're following all leads... But somehow they don't seem very sincere. And Larrius Varro? Champion at Fort Moonmoth? He's been quoted as saying, 'I swore an oath to stop corruption, but it seems the gods have seen fit to fulfill my oath for me.' And you know what's funny? Someone said they saw YOU talking to Larrius Varro several times recently. A coincidence? I don't think so."
 * "That bigmouth Varro over at Moonmoth Legion Fort says he's going to stop corruption. He doesn't know what he's talking about. What he calls corruption is just the routine greasing of the wheels of commerce. These outlanders come in here and think they know how things should work. They don't understand anything about the way things work in Morrowind."
 * "Heard about the Gateway haunting? A ghost is haunting the South Turret bed chamber. Somebody drives it out? And it comes right back. The Gateway is too new to have its own haunts. Some sorcerer up to mischief is my guess. But it's ruining business at the Gateway, and Angaredhel the Prefect is NOT happy. Be good if somebody would take care of it before someone gets hurt."
 * "I hear you're in a little trouble with the law. Why don't you pay the magistrate? You know you owe it. Why don't you pay it?"
 * "Everyone's saying you've got a price on your head. Some people are going to start looking at your skin like it might be a handy way to pay off a few debts."
 * "It is not a rumor. It is the truth. Lord Dagoth, Dagoth Ur, Lord of the Sixth House, and Savior of the Dunmer people, has awakened. And with him shall all sleepers awaken, and Morrowind shall be cleansed of the stain of false gods and foreign rule."
 * I've heard there are a number of young locals who follow a vampire named Lord Irarak. They hide themselves in one of the ancestral burial tombs nearby and do whatever it is they do. Idiots, if you ask me."
 * "I've heard that the youngest Llethri runt has decided he wants to become one of your kind. Maybe you can help with that. Of course, his mother is against it, and she's got a lot of money."
 * "I've heard rumors of a vampire hunter in the city recently, dark one. You should take care."
 * "I've heard that there's a powerful vampire in the Drethan tomb near Ald Daedroth. She's slaughtered any mortals that have gone in the place. From what I've heard, she's killed a number of your kind as well."
 * "I've heard that Miun-Gei in the Foreign Quarter is getting really fed up with some obnoxious Breton selling wares outside his shop. Ridiculous what some people will do to earn a drake."
 * "I've heard that Miun-Gei the enchanter is getting really fed up with some obnoxious Breton selling wares outside his shop. Ridiculous what some people will do to earn a drake."
 * "Crassius Curio is quite a patron of the arts. He commissioned some artists to do a mural for him, and I heard that he has written a new play, and would like to have it performed."
 * "I've heard that Balen Andrano over in the Redoran section has had a real tough time lately. He's losing a lot of business."
 * "Did you hear about poor Jeanne? No one will go into her store anymore. People say it's haunted."
 * "Poor Moroni Uvelas. Her husband hasn't been home in days, and she's worried about him. No telling what that no-good man is doing."
 * "There's been a pretty bad rat problem in the Telvanni section of Vivec. Audenian Valius the enchanter has gotten the worst of it, apparently."
 * "I have heard that you have taken personal vengeance for the murder of Airan-Ahhe, dead husband of our trader, Kurapli. This is well done, Clanfriend. I have also heard that she gave you Spirit Spear. May it find a home in the hearts of your foes."
 * "Are you [PC Name]? I heard the strangest thing. Someone said they heard you spoke with Tiber Septim at Ghostgate. The Emperor. The one who built the Empire, and died centuries ago, and became a god. They say the Emperor gave you a lucky coin, and blessed you with good fortune. That's just a story, isn't it? It couldn't be true, could it?"
 * "You were visited by Tiber Septim! We heard this -- we were told that the Oracle of the Imperial Cult in the Imperial Chapels of Ebonheart says you saw Tiber Septim. Did you see him in the flesh? Did you see his ghost? Did he come and speak to you? Is that true? Wonders never cease."
 * "It may come as a surprise to you, but some of us don't like outlanders. And don't want to talk to them."
 * "They call them 'corprus beasts.' They come from Red Mountain. Once they were men. Then blight storms come. They walk in the storms. They get sick, grow fat and stupid. Now they wander like mad beasts, killing and eating. Very bad, very bad."
 * "We know of the Nerevarine prophecies. We have also heard that an outlander comes to fulfill these prophecies. Perhaps you are that outlander. Perhaps not."
 * "Everyone is very curious about this outlander who claims to be the Nerevarine."
 * "We are living in strange times, outlander. The voices that speak in dreams say the Sleeper awakes. Dagoth Ur stirs beneath Red Mountain, and all his hosts shall spill forth and spoil the land."
 * "Ghosts and Ancestors! We have heard how you went to Kogoruhn, and what you found there. It is terrible. And we have heard of Azura's cave, and the great ring. Will you show this ring to me? Please? Truly. It is a marvel."
 * "So. You are Nerevarine. When will you go to Red Mountain to face the Devil Dagoth Ur?"
 * "The ways of the world are mysterious. How strange. The Nerevarine, an outlander."
 * "You are the prophesied one? Strange times. When will you go to Red Mountain to face the Devil Dagoth Ur? When you go, you go with our blessing."
 * "The skies are clear all over Morrowind? Even on Red Mountain? I cannot believe it."
 * "The Blight is gone. Completely. Blue skies over Red Mountain. We all owe you a debt of gratitude."

law in Morrowind

 * "Morrowind is governed under Imperial Law, and under the law and customs of the Dunmer Great Houses. Conflicts of Imperial and Great House Law are governed under the Treaty of the Armistice, which reserves most local government functions to the Dunmer Great House councils. Local Magistrates judge cases and determine sentences; local guards execute the judgements of the Magistrates and enforce the laws."
 * Continue "Theft, Trespass, Assault, Foul Murder, and Contempt are serious crimes; criminals must pay fines or serve sentences of hard labor. Treason is a most serious crime, punished by death. Noble House Dunmer have right of appeal to the House Councils; Imperial citizens have right of appeal to the King of Morrowind and his Dukes. By ancient House custom, offended House nobles appealing to House councils may refuse to accept compensation and may demand death for many crimes."

lay healers

 * "Lay healers gather ingredients for health and healing potions, and minister to the sick and hurt in poor and isolated communities. It is difficult and sometimes dangerous work, but the spiritual rewards are great. If you are interested, speak to Synnolian Tunifus at the Imperial Chapels in Ebonheart."

lay member

 * "We accept all citizens of good character and earnest faith. We ask only a one-time pledge of 50 drakes to aid us in our good works. Thereafter, the only cost of membership comes when you use a healing altar -- modest and nominal fees which help us in our mission to bring the words and blessings of the Nine to those less fortunate than ourselves. Do you wish to join the Imperial Cult?"
 * "We accept all citizens of good character and earnest faith. We ask only a one-time pledge of 50 drakes to aid us in our good works. To become a lay member of the Imperial cult, speak with Ygfa at Fort Pelagiad, Syloria Siruliulus at Fort Buckmoth, Somutis Vunnis at Fort Moonmoth, Ruccia Conician in the Grand Council Chambers in Ebonheart, or Lalatia Varian in the Imperial Chapels at Ebonheart."

lay servant

 * "Lay servants serve the Imperial cult by doing various tasks. Not a lot of excitement, but safe, honorable, and rewarding. First you have to join the Imperial cult, then go to the Imperial Chapels in Ebonheart to get work. See Synnolian Tunifus to become a lay healer. See Iulus Truptor to become an almoner -- a fund raiser. See Kaye to become a shrine sergeant -- they do the more dangerous jobs."

lesser saints

 * "The lesser saints of the Temple are: Saint Felms the Bold -- Butchers, Fishmongers, Saint Llothis the Pious -- Tailors, Dyers, Saint Meris the Peacemaker -- Farmers, Laborers, Saint Roris the Martyr -- Furnishers and Caravaners, Saint Aralor the Penitent -- Tanners and Miners, Saint Delyn the Wise -- Potters, Glassmakers, Saint Olms the Just -- Sailors, Chandlers, Clerks, Saint Rilms the Barefooted -- Pilgrims, Beggars, and Saint Seryn the Merciful -- Brewers, Bakers, Distillers."

light armor

 * "The light armor discipline is the study and mastery of leather, boiled leather, chitin, and glass armor styles. To use any style of armor effectively, the wearer must be trained, conditioned, and skilled in its use."

limitations to our power

 * "We are shunned by almost all who live in the sunlight. While some mages will tolerate us, all others consider us abominations. And the sunlight...do not walk in the sunlight. It will be your death."

little advice

 * "If you're heading into the backcountry, always carry a couple of Restore Health, Restore Fatigue, Cure Disease, and Cure Blight potions with you."
 * "If you find yourself stumbling into trouble when you're tired, stop being so reckless. Keep an eye out. If you're entering unfamiliar territory, and you think it might be hostile, slow down to a walk, look around, catch your breath, and be ready for trouble."
 * "When you take a job, you have to have the good sense to hold off until you're stronger if it seems too hard for you."
 * "Don't fight when you're tired. Don't try to cast spells when you're tired. You'll fail much more often when you're tired. That's why veterans always carry a couple of Restore Fatigue potions for an emergency."
 * "If you kill yourself trying to complete a job that's too difficult for you, it's nobody's fault but your own."
 * "If you want to improve a skill you're terrible at, it's worth paying for a little training, just to get you started. Sure, you can teach yourself, but it can be slow and frustrating."
 * "If you take a job that's too hard for you, don't kill yourself. Wait until you're bigger and stronger, then try again."
 * "If you do the crime, pay the fine, don't do the time. You might think a little hard labor isn't a bad price to pay, but while you're breaking rocks for the Empire, you lose the edge in your useful skills, and it takes a long time to get back to where you were before."
 * "I've never seen a successful adventurer who didn't carry a couple of Intervention scrolls with him on long expeditions. Two reasons. Emergency exit. And it lets you move a LOT more loot than you can carry on foot. And faster goes without saying."
 * "Best bargain for a risk-taker is a jug of sujamma. Makes you strong as an ogrim -- not for long, but long enough."
 * "If all it takes is a little persuasion, a flask of Telvanni bug musk is what you need. Makes even an Orc charming."
 * "Yes, buying and selling Dwarven artifacts without an Imperial charter is illegal. But I've never heard of anyone pinched for it."
 * "There's an enchanted transportation system in the old Dunmer strongholds. Created ages ago, but still works. You need a thing called an 'index' to use the system. Not many of them around. Collectors will pay a pretty drake for them."
 * "If you want to know the sorcerer's tricks and trade, talk to Smokey Morth at Varo's Tradehouse in Vos. It's a long trek, but few sorcerers are as friendly and down-to-earth as Smokey."
 * "If you want to know everything there is to know about being a mage, let me suggest Estirdalin at the Balmora Mages Guild. You want to talk to an expert in the trade, patient, and well-spoken -- someone who likes to talk about the subjects. You don't want a trainer -- not unless you expect to pay for the information. And you don't want someone too busy or important to talk to you. Try Estirdalin. He's smart, friendly, and ready to talk."
 * "Are you interested in the healer's trade in Morrowind? Maybe you should talk with Ygfa at Fort Pelagiad in Pelagiad village. She's very nice, experienced, and very patient with questions."
 * "Artisa Arelas is a well-traveled and knowledgeable pilgrim. She works over in the Canon Offices at the Temple. If you're polite and respectful, she'll answer any questions you have."
 * "Eraamion at the Caldera Guild of Mages is a useful resource if you have questions about the nightblade's trade as it is practiced in Morrowind."
 * "If you're looking for someone to talk to about the witchhunter's trade in Morrowind, you should talk to Melvure Rindu at the Hall of Justice in Vivec."
 * "If you want to talk with a spellsword with extensive experience in Morrowind, talk to Strillian Macro at the barracks in Gnisis. He's served with several garrisons on Vvardenfell, knows the island and its people, and doesn't mind taking time out to talk with anyone who shares his interest in his profession."
 * "Anarenen at the Ald'ruhn Guild of Mages is happy to talk your ear off about alchemy. He's been on Vvardenfell a while, and knows everything there is to know about practicing the profession here."
 * "If you want to talk to an enchanter about enchanting, try Galar Rothan at the Telvanni Council House. He's not a stiff shirt like a lot of the Telvanni wizards, and he knows his stuff."
 * "Tendris Vedran is the person I'd talk to if I wanted to know about the apothecary's trade in Morrowind. I've spoken with him on several occasions, and he's smart, well-spoken, and well-informed."
 * "You want to know about traders and how they work in Morrowind, talk to Nalion at the Gateway Inn in Sadrith Mora. He knows what he's talking about."
 * "Briring is a barbarian at the Skyrim Mission in Ebonheart. He's remarkably educated and well-spoken for a barbarian, but he knows the things a barbarian should know."
 * "Have you met Gudling the Rascal in your travels? Lately he's taken up residence at St. Veloth's Hostel in Molag Mar. If you're interested in the hunter's craft, he's worth talking to."
 * "Vala Catraso at the Ald'ruhn Guild of Mages runs a little class for new arrivals in Vvardenfell. And, by the way, she is also happy to talk about her vocation as priest."
 * "It's hard to find a wise woman who'll talk about her trade. If you're interested, you might try Maela Kaushad in Vos. She married a villager, left the tribes, and settled down in town."
 * "If you want to talk to a smith about his trade, talk to Garothmuk gro-Muzgub. He is not a master smith, but he's well-spoken, friendly, and knows a lot about smithing in Morrowind."
 * "If you were to ask me for the model of a warrior, I'd have to say Miles Gloriosus. He's at the Andus Tradehouse in Maar Gan right now, on a crusade to kill off all the monsters sneaking through the Ghostfence, but he always has time to talk with an admirer."
 * "There's a crusader in residence at Desele's House of Earthly Delights in Suran. His name is Snorri. Talk to him if you want a good, long lecture on a crusader's experiences on Vvardenfell."
 * "The master-at-arms at Fort Pelagiad, Angoril, is a good source if you are curious about the master-at-arms's trade in Morrowind. He's a little long-winded, but he knows his stuff, and he's always willing."
 * "Flaenia Amiulusus is a drillmaster at the Balmora Fighters Guild. If you want to talk to someone about the drillmaster's trade, she's the one I'd pick."
 * "Mervs Uvayn has been an agent for House Hlaalu for quite a while. You'll find him at the Hlaalu Council Manor in Balmora. Talk to him if you want to know about the agent's trade."
 * "Albecius Colollius is a veteran battlemage. He hangs out at Arrille's Tradehouse in Seyda Neen. Talk to him if you want to know about battlemages and how they work here in Morrowind."
 * "My notion of the ideal knight is an Orc named Dumbuk gro-Bolak. He serves with the Legion under General Darius up in Gnisis. You'll usually find him in the barracks. Look him up. He knows his trade, and Vvardenfell."
 * "Llevana Salaren at the Temple in Molag Mar is the most knowledgeable acrobat I know. I didn't say BEST acrobat. There's others who can leap higher and jump farther, but she can TALK acrobat talk better than any other acrobat I've ever met."
 * "You should speak with the monk An-Deesei at the Argonian Mission. If the monk's life interests you, that is."
 * "Athal Nerano is the proverbial 'silver-tongued rogue'. He knows the rogue's trade, and loves to talk about it. He lists his residence as Madach's Tradehouse in Gnisis."
 * "If you want to talk to an archer about archery, talk to Ian in Ebonheart. You can usually find him wandering around on the plaza near the docks, where the dragon statue is."
 * "Most assassins don't like to talk about their trade. Take the Morag Tong, for instance. Tight-lipped about everything. But Ingokning, the assassin at the Skyrim Mission in Ebonheart? He doesn't mind talking. In fact, he'll bend your ear if you aren't careful."
 * "Fenas Madach is the thief's thief. Retired, of course. Or so he says. He has a business up in Gnisis, Madach's Tradehouse. You want to talk shop with a thief, go talk to Fenas Madach."
 * "If you want to know about a place on Vvardenfell, talk to a scout. And the scout I'd talk to is Elone. You can find her at Arrille's Tradehouse in Seyda Neen. She's traveled all over the island."
 * "If you need to know about clothes, and you want to talk to a clothier, talk to Milie Hastien in Balmora."
 * "If you need to know something about the merchant's trade, talk to Bolrin in Ebonheart at the East Empire Company Hall. He's been a merchant with the East Empire Company here for years, and he knows his stuff."
 * "Outlanders new in Vvardenfell do best in Balmora. House Hlaalu is Imperial through and through, and you get a good mix of native and Imperial people and services. Not as friendly to outlanders up north in House Redoran country, or down in big Vivec City, and DEFINITELY not friendly out east with the Telvanni wizards. Shop the outfitters, then check out the guilds for work. If you want to be adopted by a Great House, you'll need a patron, and that's easier when you've got a reputation."
 * "The easy way to get started is to join a Guild. Do their jobs, earn your way up the ranks, get the discounts, training, and other services. Gets you out and around in Vvardenfell, a little at a time, get to know the country and the people. The Guild takes an interest in you, doesn't send you in over your head. The Fighters Guild and the Legion, anyway. The Mages Guild is another story. Some old chair-polisher, doesn't have a clue what he's sending you into, doesn't much care."
 * "If you want to make your mark as a mage, you haven't got much choice. It's the Mages Guild or nothing. Oh, you can pick up experience and education from the Temple or the Imperial cult, but here in the settled West, the Mages Guild has all the best people, best libraries and facilities, best work opportunities. Of course, all the REAL wizards are Telvanni Dunmer, out on the east coast. But they are all either cranky or crazy or just plain mean. You got to be tough just to TALK with those wizard-lords."
 * "One little word. 'Ingredients.' Pointy hats and bottlepackers all need their ingredients. Go out, pop a skeleton apart, get the bonemeal, make a quick drake. Now, you have to be careful, because the locals don't like you out digging up their aunties. So get a book, read up, know the kinds of rocks and herbs you're looking for, and off you go. Start small. Leave the big Daedra and scary stuff alone, right?"
 * "Well, if you're considering a mercenary career, the Fighters Guild isn't too choosy. No, don't take offense. I just mean they're relaxed, easy going, give along, get along. Legion is a lot tougher outfit, and fussy about ends and means, if you follow me. And those House Redoran people -- well, they are tough and sharp, but a bit tiresome in the duty-and-honor line."
 * "You look like you might not faint wearing heavy armor. You might check out the Legion garrison at Fort Moonmoth. They like 'em big over there, and maybe they're looking for recruits. Good benefits, chance for advancement, get a piece of land at retirement, maybe even end up a knight."
 * "Be smart. Join the Guild. Honor among thieves, right? You're new here, don't know your way around, get in a little trouble -- a lot of trouble, more likely. Oh, you'll learn, fast enough, I guess. But get gold on your head, and things get tougher. The Guild will steer you straight, towards the sweet and away from the sour. And they're a regular guild -- discounts on your training and services and everything. Do yourself a favor. Start easy, with friends. Then later, you want to freelance, fine."
 * "If you need to meet a guy, you want to look in at the South Wall, cornerclub, south of the river. Talk around; if they like your looks, they'll open up. But be careful. The Council Club, also on the south side, is Camonna Tong territory, the local mob. They don't like outlanders, except under building foundations."
 * "We don't like outlanders. We don't like them in our Council Club. We don't like trouble. We do like a little peace and quiet. If you don't mind."
 * "Strangers get lost up here. Be careful. My advice is keep an eye to the coast, then pick a landmark, then keep them both is sight as you explore. The Daedric ruins to the east, for example, are visible for a long distance."
 * "While you're here, you have to take a look at the Daedric ruins. Ashalmawia. Very old. Remarkable. Safe to go up there, in the daytime at least. I wouldn't go inside, though. Place is cursed."
 * "If you want weapons or arms in Ald'ruhn, or need weapons and armor repaired, look for Dandera Selaro the Smith in Ald'ruhn-under-Skar. Dandera Selaro serves all comers, and has a quality selection. The other three smiths in Ald'ruhn have faction associations. Ergnir the Nord is the Fighters Guild smith, and Tuveso Beleth is the House Redoran smith at Redoran Council Hall. Yambagorn gro-Shulor is the Legion's smith at Fort Buckmoth. And Daynes Redothril the pawnbroker may also be worth a look."
 * "You look like you're looking for something. It might be you'll find it at the Rat in the Pot. A fellow named Aengoth the Jeweler. He's good at looking for things. And finding them. And a warning. Stay clear of the Camonna Tong. They don't like outlanders, and what they don't like, they kill."
 * "Do yourself a favor, mate. Hook up with the Guild. Now, maybe I got you wrong, don't take offense. But I'm watching you, and you look and move like someone in the Trade. The Guild can help you. And frankly, the Guild could use your help. Maybe you know, maybe you don't.... The Guild and the Camonna Tong are in a Guild War for control of Vvardenfell. The Camonna Tong are the ancient Dunmer syndicate. They hate outlanders, and always will. If they win, there'll be no place for you here, outlander."
 * "Ald'ruhn is fortunate in having two enchanters and two alchemists. Even though Cienne Sintieve and Llether Vari are up in the more expensive Manor District, I think you'll find the selection and service with Tanar Llervi and Anarenen at the Mages Guild every bit as good. Of course, if you're affiliated with the Mages Guild, you'll want to try Tanar Llervi and Anarenen first."
 * "If you are looking for work, and have skill and experience in the arcane arts, you can't do better than the Ald'ruhn Mages Guild. Edwinna Elbert, the guild steward, is in her own world, like most mages, but she's good-hearted and sensible, if you can get her attention. And you can't advance very far in other factions around here unless you have good fighter's skills. Except, the Temple, if that's to your taste. People with arcane skills can rise pretty fast in their ranks."
 * "Ald'ruhn is a good place for experienced fighters and mercenaries. Both the Fighters Guild and the Imperial Legion are looking for recruits, and they offer rapid advancement if you do well with the tasks the guild steward or the chapter steward assigns you. And if you're planning to make a career here in Ald'ruhn, you might consider House Redoran. It's hard for outlanders to rise above a certain rank, but if you show promise, and get a sponsor, you can go all the way to the top... in theory, anyway."
 * "Caldera is a quiet, law-abiding town. Not much call for adventurers or mercenaries here. A good place to shop for equipment and look for a trainer, though."
 * "Lots of ruins here on Sheogorad. If you're an adventurer looking for loot, or trouble, it might be worthwhile exploring the island. Mzuleft is the big Dwemer ruin everyone knows about. But there are other places on the island, less famous, less often visited, that might be more interesting. And safer."
 * "We get pilgrims here from time to time, since we're the closest port to a pair of sites, the Malacath shrine and the Sanctus Shrine. If you were thinking of visiting the sites, let me warn you. I heard that a group of orcs are camped out over at the site of the Malacath shrine."
 * "The Imperial Legion may be recruiting. I hear the units are at full strength in the town forts, but there might be openings on the frontier, up at Fort Darius. Speak to Frald the White, Knight Bachelor and Chapter Steward of the Hawkmoth Legion."
 * "You look like someone who is thinking about going into Red Mountain. We will not stop you. But we warn you: without protection from blight diseases, you won't get far. And even with protection, and plenty of blight cures when protection fails, you must plan on short forays inside and quick returns for heals and cures. And the creatures inside are terrible and numerous. And the ruins and citadels are worse."
 * "A fellow looking for trouble might take a peek around in the old Daedric ruins on an island to the south. Probably safer than stirring up trouble in town, anyway."
 * "I bet you couldn't throw a stone around here without hitting a smuggler. 'Smuggler's Coast' is what they call this stretch of coast from Seyda Neen north to West Gash. Now, no one HERE would think of trying to cheat the Emperor of his taxes. No. We're loyal citizens."
 * "Since you're here, you should take a look at the Mask of Vivec. Ask Mehra Drora at the Temple to tell you the story behind the Mask of Vivec."
 * "If you're looking for work, you might consider the Deathshead Legion. This is not a very popular posting, and there might be openings. Check with General Darius."
 * "It's pretty quiet right around Gnisis, especially for a questing hero like yourself. But out to the east are a bunch of bandit caves. Might be some loot and bandits there that'd be easy pickings for someone like you."
 * "Don't go poking around in the Old Velothi tower. The renegade Telvanni wizard Baladas Demnevanni lives there, and he doesn't welcome visitors."
 * "They've sealed off the eggmine. Only letting miners in. But there is a secret entrance from the river bed."
 * "Mind your own business is my advice to visitors. Don't get nosy, or some people may take strong objection. If you think you're hot stuff, and you want to throw your weight around, go ahead. But I warned you."
 * "Here's a notion. Steal from thieves. Perfectly legal. Outlaws got no rights, and they'll none of them be missed. You're a big hero if you bag a few thieves. And you end up with their stuff. Slick, eh? Of course, it's dangerous. But you can't get ahead without taking some risks."
 * "You may have heard people refer to the Bitter Coast as the Smuggler's Coast. There's a reason for that. A lot of islands and coastline, with plenty of caves and hidey-holes, and few people around. Perfect for men with boats who want to keep their business private."
 * "There are nests of dreugh somewhere along the Bitter Coast. They're not to be trifled with. I don't think the value of the hide is worth the trouble. But it's the challenge and danger itself that attracts some people. More power to them."
 * "There's a lot of wildlife in the Bitter Coast swamps. There's a market for alit and kagouti hide, and some folks swear rat meat is the sweetest meat in Morrowind."
 * "If you're looking for trouble, and not particularly superstitious, there are a number of ancient abandoned tombs in these parts."
 * "People around here are suspicious of strangers asking a lot of questions. Maybe something they're doing isn't exactly legal. They don't want anyone poking around. You understand?"
 * "Not much up here to keep a questing hero like yourself busy, I'm afraid. It's pretty quiet, and that's the way we like it. You might take a look at the Daedric ruins to the southwest, though. Don't know anything about them, myself. No business fooling with that stuff. But they say a lot of those old sites have hidden treasures."
 * "Visit the Tower shrine, and ask the priests there about it. Quite a story. 'To you, Lord Dagon, I bite my thumb.' Hah hah hah. Quite a trick. Maybe, if you're a questing hero, you'd like to match your wits against a Daedra?"
 * "We've had a lot of trouble with blight monsters escaping through the Ghostfence and attacking the village and outlying settlements. The Temple and House Redoran has called for volunteers to come help protect Maar Gan from monster attacks. Talk to the priests at the shrine if you might be willing to help. And talk to the volunteers who are lodging at the Andus Tradehouse."
 * "Most pilgrims will need guards and guides to reach the pilgrim sites, but someone like you should have no trouble on your own. Follow Foyada Ilibaal northwest to Mount Kand, then Mount Assarnibibi is northeast of Mount Kand, across Foyada Zabirbael. Just take your time, keep landmarks in sight, and be ready to hoof it back to the stronghold if you get in trouble."
 * "Watch out for small camps of outcast Ashlanders. They prey on careless pilgrims. There's a large Ashlander camp beyond Mount Kand and Mount Assarnibibi to the north -- Erabenimsun camp. The Erabenimsun tribe is not very hospitable, but we're more or less at peace with them at present, so don't rile them."
 * "Sadrith Mora is the only place to shop for goods and services in the Telvanni District. All the other Telvanni settlements are small, with very few services and very poor selections."
 * "According to the Collective Articles of the Council of the Great House Telvanni, out-house and outlander guests in Sadrith Mora may not travel in town or speak to or conduct business with citizens, tradesmen, or publicans unless they have Hospitality Papers. Hospitality Papers may be obtained from the Prefect of Hospitality, Angaredhel, at the Gateway Inn for 25 gold."
 * "Looking for work in Sadrith Mora? Start with the Fighters Guild and the Mages Guild at Wolverine Hall. If you're thinking of trying to serve House Telvanni, go talk to the Telvanni Mouths over at the Council Hall."
 * "The best way to travel in Sadrith Mora is by the guild guide teleports at the Mages Guild in Wolverine Hall. It gets you past the foolishness at the Gateway, and most of the services you need are right in Wolverine Hall."
 * "Go to the Prefect of Hospitality, Angaredhel the Altmer, at the Gateway, and purchase the necessary Hospitality papers. It's not that expensive, and you don't want any trouble with the guards."
 * "You wouldn't think so, but there are number of old abandoned tombs in the area. I thought this area had never been settled, but apparently, long before the Empire opened Vvardenfell up for settlement, someone has put a lot of ancestors to rest here. Most of us can't get past a superstitious distaste for rooting around in ancestral tombs. But you're an outlander. It shouldn't bother you, should it?"
 * "We see a lot of new faces like yours here in Seyda Neen. If you're hoping to stand out from the crowd, you need to practice a lot to improve your skills. And if you want to increase your general level of competence, focus on your major skills -- the ones most important to your trade. That way you'll advance more quickly. And another little tip newcomers forget. Always carry a little food so you can freshen up when fatigue gets you down. Eat a little, and you can feel your energy coming back."
 * "Your first visit to Morrowind, outlander? Then learn the law and local customs. Get a copy of Law and Custom in Morrowind. Slavery is legal here. Foul murder is illegal, but if he strikes the first blow, you're in the clear. A verbal attack is illegal, just like an unprovoked physical attack. Folks are touchy about personal honor. Watch your tongue, or you'll get called out to a duel."
 * "Phew. You're bittergreen green, outlander. Might as well wear a sign, "New in Town." Word of advice. Buy a little good will. Lose a few drakes, gain a friend. Folks will loosen up if your spread a little of the Emperor's gold around."
 * "Where to start. Probably in Balmora. That's the House Hlaalu district seat. They've got a Fighters Guild and Mages Guild there, and a legion fort -- though I don't know if they're recruiting. They have all the services you need -- trainers, smiths, outfitters -- and if you join a guild and work your way up, the discounts and perks are worthwhile."
 * "Don't know anything about adventuring? Here's the basics. Travel light, run like a kagouti. Don't go poking in holes unless you know what you're doing. Common sense."
 * "You can read, can't you? Well, read some books. That's what they write 'em for. Got all the damn advice anyone could want in 'em. Buy 'em, read 'em, sell 'em back. Most folks don't mind if you take a peek at what books they got. Proud of being book-learned. Of course, if the f'lah is SELLING books, he wants you to buy 'em, THEN read 'em. It stands to reason."
 * "Me, I can afford it, so I buy my bed and board here. But there's no harm in sleeping rough, and eating what you can find. Anywhere outside of town you can just lay down and take your rest -- provided there ain't no thieves or kagouti around. But the guards don't like you sleeping in the streets. It annoys the gentry."
 * "Hmm. You'll be looking for better armor. And a decent weapon. Let me make a suggestion. A lot of people out there are wearing very nice armor and carrying very nice weapons. You don't want to go taking those things from honest citizens, because you'll end up doing hard labor. But if you happen to find some outlaws wearing nice armor and carrying nice weapons, well, the bailiffs don't mind at all if you knock them over the head and take their stuff."
 * "DON'T head for the back country until you're ready. I did, and they took my stuff, and I count myself lucky. There's plenty of work, good opportunities near the towns down here in the southwest. But Red Mountain? No way. Out east with the Telvanni? Not yet. Up north in Sheogorad? Just toss your stuff in the water and slit your throat -- it'll be much faster, and less painful."
 * "Well, most outlanders stick close to the Imperial Guilds and the legions. But you might consider service in one of the Dunmer Great Houses. They aren't real fond of outlanders. And you have to look around hard for a patron -- someone who'll speak for you, help you advance to the higher ranks. But the Great Houses are where the real opportunities are. House Hlaalu and House Redoran are pretty reasonable. House Telvanni -- the wizard house -- they're another story."
 * "Don't expect the natives to take to you right away. Colonists like us -- outlanders, settlers from the other provinces -- will be more open and friendly at the start. Then, maybe when you do a few things, get your name around, gain a reputation, then the locals will open up a little. Stick to your own kind to start, and it will go a little easier."
 * "You look like a f'lah who knows his way around, eh? Looking for what others are looking for. Well, they don't have an Imperial charter, but there's honor among thieves, if you know what I mean. Look in the tradehouses and cornerclubs, talk around. If you look likely, and talk likely, they'll give you the word."
 * "Best bet if you're new here is to hook up with one of the Imperial Guilds -- Fighters Guild or Mages Guild. It's not what you know, it's who you know. You'll get discounts on training and services, and if you need work, they know where to find it."
 * "It pays to take it slow when you first come to Morrowind. When you talk to folks, keep an eye on their dispositions. They let you know if you don't like them, and it's smart to get on a f'lah's good side before you ask for a favor."
 * "New in Morrowind, eh? Well, the natives are not very friendly. They still resent the Empire, and they look down on the other races. They don't like outlander Dunmer very much either. If you aren't Dunmer and native-born, you're an outlander, just like the rest of us."
 * "Some rough customers come into town now and then for supplies. I think they might be smugglers and bandits holed up locally. Be doing a public service to clean them up, and might find yourself some nice loot in the bargain."
 * "Some neglected ancestral tombs around here. Locals don't like it, but you can find some nice bits. Ghosts and ancestral spirit guardians are dangerous."
 * "Stay away from the mudcrabs. Swamp Fever. Or join the Tribunal Temple. Initiates get free Cure Disease at the shrines."
 * "If you do the crime, pay the fine. You KNOW you owe it. So why don't you just PAY the fine? You wonder why people look at you with a lousy disposition? Because there's gold on your head, and maybe someone in Black Marsh doesn't know it, but he's the only one."
 * "The Fields of Kummu is an easy, safe walk southeast from town. Visit the shrine, and earn the blessing of Vivec."
 * "Don't bother looking for a convenient system of bridges or ferries across the lakes and rivers. There aren't any. If you're traveling in the Ascadian Isles, be prepared to get wet, or to use magic to fly or walk across the waterways."
 * "The Shrine of Molag Bal is not a pilgrimage for the casual traveler. The interior is cursed and dangerous, and the Temple has not been successful in keeping it clean of Daedra-worshipping witches and warlocks. Go view the ruins from the outside, but don't go inside unless you are strong and well-prepared."
 * "Trerayna Dalen has challenged Mistress Therana for Tel Branora. Dalen and her mercenaries have been camped out here for months, but they haven't got much to show for it. I think she may have run out of steam. Or maybe the mercenaries are getting restless. Might be Therana's captain, Mollimo, would welcome some help."
 * "Security is pretty tight at the tower, what with Trerayna Dalen's siege and all. Better not ruffle any feathers if you have any business in the tower. If Mollimo thinks you've got something cooked up with Dalen, he might kill you first and let the old necromancer ask questions later. Heh-heh."
 * "I bet old Mollimo and his hirelings could make short work of Trerayna Dalen. But they way I hear it, Mistress Therana has got Mollimo on a short leash. Won't let him out of the tower, wants to keep him and the guard real close so everything safe. Granted, it's probably the safest, and most economical tactic, but it's dull and tiresome, and I think it's getting on Mollimo's nerves."
 * "Nobody is going to coddle you in the Fighters Guild. In the Imperial cult, they give you stuff that old ladies could do in their sleep. But here, you get in line for work, and if something comes to you that is out of your depth, you're supposed to be smart enough to back off and come at it again later when you have the equipment and chops."
 * "How do you judge a job, decide if it's too tough for you? Good question. Me, I check three things: location, opposition, and payoff. First, if it's a long walk, I worry. If it's a Daedric ruin, or a Dunmer stronghold, or a Telvanni tower, I worry. If it's way up north, or near Red Mountain, I worry. Second, if the opposition is tough, I worry. Daedra worry me. Vampires worry me. Telvanni wizards worry me. Third, if the reward is fat, I worry. Nobody pays you a crate of gold for a walk in the park."
 * "Buy paralyze as soon as you can. Keeps the creatures off you and allows you to cast those more elaborate spells."
 * "Buy a spell of every type that you can find. This will give you the best options later when you're creating your own custom spells."
 * "Use the spellmaker. It's cheap, and a custom-designed spell tailored to your skills, magicka reservoirs, and spellcasting style will always outperform the standard spells you buy from service casters."
 * "Don't be afraid to invest in armor. Even if you carefully avoid close combat like a smart spellcaster, things go wrong, and armor can save your skin when the unexpected happens."
 * "When you think you are just about to encounter some heavy opposition, get those shield-style spells up. The life they save may be your own."
 * "Invest in potions to restore your magicka. In hostile territory, these potions can save you a lot of downtime. Even supposing you can find some safe place to get some rest and regain your magicka, who needs the aggravation?"
 * "Learn the Mark, Recall, Levitation, and Open spells. Mark and Recall are essential for any long-distance travel. There are plenty of places you can't get to without Levitation. And treasure does you no good if it's behind a locked door or in a locked chest."
 * "A good strategy is to paralyze your opponent, cast some kind of touch spell that does damage for awhile, like poison, then retreat to a farther range to cast your targeted, long range spells. Recast paralyze if the creature isn't dead by the time they reach you again."
 * "Join the Mages Guild. Rise ranks to get good rates for services. And stay in their good graces by minding their rules and performing the required duties."
 * "Use illusion spells like invisibility to scout an area before you go on the offensive. Often a cunning spellcaster can simply avoid opponents and obstacles, move right to the objective, and leave without taking a scratch."
 * "The farther from civilization you go, the worse the dangers. But there're exceptions to that rule. Ald Sotha is a short walk from Vivec. But only a five-year veteran with full kit ought to be peeking into that hole. And I hear there's a couple of spots in Vivec's sewers where you wouldn't send a team of Ordinators. But it's your call. You see something you don't like, back out, and find something else to do while you train and build up your kit."
 * "How do you know when you've got a quest too tough for you? If it sounds too tough for you, it probably is. You must use your own judgement. Guild stewards don't really get to know your abilities. All they know is that a guy never comes back. They don't know if he got lost interest, or got eaten."
 * "Practice stealing and pickpocketing by taking cheap things from small merchants. Don't go after the big stuff until you're experienced."
 * "Always study your target, and take a good inventory of what he has before attempting to steal anything. If he has his eye on that shiny silver claymore, he won't notice you pocketing a few tarnished throwing stars."
 * "If possible, always take a single item at a time. It increases the risk, but it's excellent practice."
 * "Keep a good sense of your surroundings, no matter how good you are sneaking, you're always better off if no one is around."
 * "You will get slaughtered if you start acting like a warrior. Always sneak up to your target and take advantage of your stealth. Even a dagger is effective if used in the right way at the right time."
 * "You can't be a successful thief if you always steal from the same merchant, or even stay in the same town. After you've picked them clean, explore somewhere else to give them a chance to restock."
 * "The elite of Morrowind may not have all the armor and equipment you need as an adventurer. But don't overlook precious stones or fine jewelry and clothing; to the right merchant those items can be worth more and be more easy to carry than some heavy iron armor."
 * "Noble families often aren't around to watch their manors so they lock everything up. This makes them a wonderful opportunity to practice your skill at picking locks in the privacy of someone else's house. And of course, don't neglect to check the contents of that chest after you pick it."
 * "Merchants know their own inventories far better than you do. Never attempt to trick them into buying something you stole from them."
 * "Alchemists are easy targets for inexperienced thieves. They have far too many ingredients for them to keep an eye on all of them all of the time."
 * "Don't risk a frontal confrontation with anything. When in doubt, sneak."
 * "If you have the patience, sneak around everywhere you go. It will take longer, and may arouse suspicion, but it's excellent practice."
 * "Higher quality picks and probes are definitely worth their higher price. But keep cheaper ones around as well for the easier locks and traps. Also be sure to find a good source for buying these instruments."
 * "Look. If you're the bloody-minded type, tries to complete every task a boss gives you, you're in for a world of hurt. Happens all the time. You breeze through a couple of jobs, then you hit one you can't budge. I can't tell you what to do, but me, I go find something else to do for a while. Sure, nobody likes to admit you can't do a job. You brood over it, lie awake nights figuring how your gonna crack that nut. But patience and good sense is as important as blood and courage in this business."
 * "The services required at lower ranks in the Imperial cult are not very difficult or dangerous. But any task you do for the Oracle, Lalatia Varian, will be very difficult, very dangerous, and suited only for experienced, powerful, well-equipped adventurers."
 * "Nobody is going to hold your hand in the Legion. In the Imperial cult, they just test your faith and your shoe leather. But here, your superior gives you orders, and you find you're out of your depth, you're supposed to be smart enough to be patient, get some training, experience, and new equipment, and try it again later when you're better prepared."
 * "Just because your superior gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your superior doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And some superiors don't care."
 * "If you accept a task from a superior, you are honor-bound to complete it. But unless there is a deadline, or an issue of honor, you are NOT supposed to die trying. Use common sense. If you find you are not yet ready to face a challenge, be patient, train, outfit yourself, and revisit the task at a later date."
 * "Just because your lord gives you a task, don't assume you should be able to do it. Your lord doesn't really know what you can or can't handle. And most Telvanni lords don't care."
 * "Let me warn you. The quests for the Temple at lower ranks are not too difficult. But suddenly after you reach Curate rank, the quests get very, very difficult. Don't be surprised if you have to do a lot of skill-building outside the Temple before you can handle the higher rank quests. These tasks are tests of faith, yes, but they are also tests of good judgement and common sense."
 * "In principle, a member is not be given tasks that exceed the member's rank or abilities. In practice, sometimes mistakes are made. You are not expected to fail and die for those mistakes. Use judgement. Be patient. Take the initiative. Train yourself. Equip yourself. Study your target and situation more carefully. Then return to your task when you are ready, and succeed."
 * "Go on inside if you like. Look around. But don't mess with anything. And if you're going to talk to anyone, talk real nice. Stay out of the dungeon, that's where all the corprus victims are. It's not pretty. And they aren't mean, really. Just crazy mad and hungry."
 * "Mistress Dratha doesn't like men. She won't roast you or anything. But if you want something from her, like a favor, or a job, be very proper and polite. Don't try to be funny. She does hire men for various tasks. But I always wondered if she saves the nasty work for males."
 * "Mistress Dratha prefers female mercenaries and adventurers. Go see her. She may have some work for you."
 * "If you need to earn some money to support yourself while you're in Vivec, try the Imperial Guilds in the Foreign Quarter. They often have odd jobs for willing adventurers. And ask tradesmen and craftsmen you meet. They often have simple errands that need doing. The pay is small, but the goodwill gained by serving local people and the experience traveling around the city may be worth more than the gold you earn."
 * "Vivec is huge. It is easy to get lost. But if you observe the law, you can't get into much trouble. My advice is wander freely. Learn your way around. See what the craftsmen and traders have to sell. See the sights the pilgrims come to see -- the Ministry of Truth, the High Fane, the Palace of Vivec. And while you're here, go take a tour of Ebonheart, the Imperial town across the lagoon to the west. A lot to see and do over there, too."
 * "If you're a mercenary, or a questing hero, you must go visit Master Aryon. He always has lots of very ambitious projects going on. And you MUST see his tower. It's really something."
 * "This is still very wild country out here in the Grazelands. Master Aryon is trying to get along with the Ashlanders, but there are still plenty of outcasts and renegade Ashlanders who attack outsiders on sight. The big Zainab Ashlander camp is off to the southwest. Don't start trouble with them. They are very sneaky, and their warriors are great fighters, but we're more-or-less at peace with them right now."
 * "You're a freelance adventurer, yes? There're many tombs, ruins, and lairs in the Grazelands to the south and west. Just keep your eyes open. They're often marked by a clump of rocks or trees at the entrance."
 * "You're a freelance adventurer, yes? If you're looking for challenge, try Esutanamus, a Daedric shrine on an offshore island to the southeast, or Nchuleft, a Dwemer ruin to the southeast where the plains and the slopes of Red Mountain meet. They're large ruins -- easy to find."
 * "Thinking of setting yourself up as a mercenary or questing hero? Not much call for that around here. Rats and the occasional bandit are our only problems."
 * "Looking for work? Not much around here. Better head to one of the towns to the north -- Balmora and Ald'ruhn -- and try the Fighters Guild and the Mages Guild. Or head for the big city -- Vivec -- to the east."
 * "Things are pretty tame hereabouts. But get off the roads and head northwest into the Bitter Coast, or northeast into the Ashlanders, and things get a lot more interesting in a hurry."
 * "You want my advice, outlander? Stay clear of the Cammona Tong. We don't like outlanders."
 * "Carry good nourishing food. When you stumble wearily into trouble, eat and refresh yourself, so you will fight well."
 * "Go around trouble. Leave it behind you. Then return, later, when you can give trouble a big surprise."
 * "No one will ever grow rich hunting. But it is a pure pleasure for itself. Take your time. Sneak up on your prey. Surprise it with a swift, silent arrow. There is no greater pleasure than to drop a cliff racer with a single arrow."

little secret

 * "Talk to everyone. Talk is cheap. Ask questions. You don't ask, you never learn."
 * "If someone attacks you first, you have the right to defend yourself. If someone DOESN'T attack you first, you're going to break the law if you attack him."
 * "Buy from merchants and traders who like you. You get better prices. Members of your own factions usually like you best."
 * "If you're thinking of traveling up country, near Sheogorad, or out Molag Amur way, or inside the Ghostfence, you need to know about corprus. It's a disease that turns normal creatures into beasts. Turns men into twisted, mad lumps of flesh, superhumanly strong, and full of hatred. You get corprus from fighting with diseased creatures. It's hard to get corprus, but harder to get rid of it. In fact, I hear there is no cure."
 * "Have you heard of this new secret cult, the Sixth House? They say they sit around in caves, cutting off pieces of their own flesh and eating it. It's that corprus disease -- makes the flesh grow wild and crazy. Cut a piece off, and another piece grows back, bigger and better. Guards say, 'We're looking into it.' Right. That makes me feel better."
 * "Did you hear about the fellow they found in the canal? Flesh was swollen and covered with growths. His arms and legs were all twisted and out of shape. And the face? It was a face, you could tell from the eyes and the holes for nose and mouth. But it wasn't a face you'd ever want to see again. The priest said it looked like corprus. Corprus? Here in Vivec? That's a worry."
 * "That bookseller in the Foreign Quarter, Jobasha, is an avowed abolitionist, but so far he has managed to avoid being caught. There's an Ordinator in there all the time, keeping an eye on his activities, so he must be very discreet."
 * "That bookseller, Jobasha, in Jobasha's Rare Books, talks like an abolitionist, but no one's ever pinned anything on him. The Ordinators have a guard in there keeping an eye on him, but somehow he stays out of trouble. Maybe he has friends in high places...."
 * "Falasmaryon, the old Dunmer stronghold, up near Ald Velothi? You know the place I'm talking about? I heard Mangolodh, the Legion scout, stuck his head in there, just looking around, saw a corprus monster, and teleported right out. He reported to the Legion, but I don't know what they're going to do about it. Pass it on to the Temple, that's my guess."
 * "Do you know where Telasero is? The old Dunmer stronghold between Suran and Molag Mar? The Temple just sent three Ordinators from the Order of War up there. Some trader reported seeing corprus monsters there."
 * "I heard the Ordinators burned out a camp of Nerevarine cult worshippers out by the Ghostfence, in Foyada Ashur-Dan. The Temple seems to be going to a lot of trouble to exterminate a bunch of simple Ashlanders. They can't help being ignorant. They're just primitive savages. And nobody takes that 'return of Lord Nerevar' stuff seriously. Crazy rag-robed prophets. Not much threat there."
 * "Somebody said Larrius Varro over at Fort Moonmoth is looking for you. Said he wanted to talk to you. Don't know what about."
 * "Why is the Temple so upset about this Nerevarine prophecy? Crazy old gentlemen, wandering around the ashlands and staring at the sun, talking to themselves. Big deal. 'Lord Nerevar is coming back to save Morrowind.' About time, I say. Where was he when the Empire walked in here and took over?"
 * "Vampires are not as much of a problem here as back in the West. Here, the Dark Elves burned them out centuries ago, and the Temple makes sure they don't come back."
 * "They say they don't have much of a problem here with vampires. From my experience, that's the truth in the settled parts of Vvardenfell. But in the backcountry, you hear rumors. Out near Dagon Fel, Maar Gan, Molag Mar, you hear people talk of running into vampires in Dwemer ruins, and in ancestral tombs. Best to be careful. You don't want to run into those babies. And if you do, you want a nice, crisp copy of Divine Intervention so you can get safe, fast, all in one piece."
 * "They say a vampire can hide among us? Nonsense. One look at the face, and you know a vampire. You can't disguise that. You can wear a helmet. But here in Morrowind, we don't trust anyone who won't take off a helmet in public. In Morrowind, someone like that is looking to spend some time in a big, hot fire."
 * "In Morrowind, we don't like to hear about vampires. We know that, back West, the Mages Guild helps them hide. The Mages Guild is full of necromancers, and we don't like that one bit. If we see a vampire here in Morrowind, we put him on a stake and roast him. Well, truth be, we tell the Ordinators, let them take care of it. Private citizens have no business fighting vampires. They're too dangerous."
 * "They say a vampire can hide among us? Nonsense. One look at the face, and you know a vampire. You can't disguise that. You can wear a helmet. But here in Morrowind, we don't trust anyone who won't take off a helmet in public. In Morrowind, someone like that is looking to spend some time in a big, hot fire. What? Well... now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever seen a Telvanni guard with his helmet off. Hmm...."
 * "If you help someone, they'll remember. If you're loyal to others, they'll be loyal to you. Do the right thing. You know the right thing. Do the right thing, so you'll never regret what you've done."
 * "If you're having trouble persuading someone, offer a bribe. Don't be so stuffy. Bribes are the lubricant of honest commerce."
 * "Sadrith Mora is the best town to shop for spells."
 * "Never take a life carelessly. It cheapens you, and diminishes you. Take life seriously, if taking life is your profession."
 * "Everybody can learn a few spells. You don't need to be a wizard to cast spells. It makes life easier. And when you learn a spell, practice. It's the only way to learn, and it helps to pass the time."
 * "Don't be in such a hurry when you're traveling. Take your time. Keep your eyes open. Learn from your experiences. You're on the road to learn about yourself and the world around you."
 * "Keep your weapons sharp, your armor in good shape. If you can't afford to have others do it, learn to do it yourself. Get the best quality you can afford. You can be no better than the quality of your tools."
 * "Remember: there's always a welcome for you in the Imperial cult. If you're having a hard time here in Morrowind, outlander, come home to the Imperial cult shrine. We'll find a use for you, and help you feel good while doing good."
 * "Always carry a jug of sujamma with you. That burst of strength, and the ability to penetrate armor and deal serious damage, will give you the one-time punch to face an opponent you normally can't handle."
 * "Don't carry those cheap armorer's hammers around with you. Hammers are dead weight. Buy them, and use them on the spot. If you're a shortblade specialist, and you like to travel light, it's often cheaper to own and carry backup weapons."
 * "Have you heard about poor Ienas Sarandas? He lost his patrimony betting on the guar. Sold every piece of the family silverware to pay his debts. A pity. I think it's driven him a bit mad. Wears clothes fit for a lord, and hasn't got a drake for a meal."
 * "You know, people say the Zainab -- and Ashlanders in general -- are lying and untrustworthy. But I think it is partly a problem of pride. If the truth will shame them, they don't want to say it. Among the Ashlanders, no one would be rude enough to force an Ashlander to admit something shameful. But we civilized people, in may ways we are less careful of another's feelings than the Ashlander savages. In particular, the men are very proud. I don't know about the women. We rarely see them here."
 * "How do you recognize a Daedric shrine? Well, they've got long, funny names, like Ashurnibibi or Zaintiraris. Some are well-known sites, like Ald Sotha and Bal Fell. And stone and architecture is unmistakable. Big, dark, grey-green stone ruins, funny angles, funny markings and patterns on the stone. Weird oval crooked doors. And inside, all funny angles."
 * "Daedra? You know what they are, right? Well, Daedric shrines are where Daedra cults worship Daedra. Bad people who summon bad Daedra. Stay away from them. Why? Because Daedra are nasty. And the folks that worship them are even nastier."
 * "What are the most dangerous places in Morrowind? Well, probably the ash vampire citadels inside the Ghost Fence, on Red Mountain. But outside the Ghostfence? I guess the Daedric ruins would be the worst. They're all over the place, and full of bad Daedra, and the crazy folks who summon them. I hear vampires are pretty bad, too, but I've never seen any, personally. And the Dwemer sites are pretty bad, too."
 * "You're an outlander, maybe you don't know about the kinds of Daedric ruins we have here in Morrowind. Daedra cults worship the Bad Daedra. You can learn more about that at the Temple. Anyway, long ago, before the Temple put a stop to it, people used to worship bad Daedra -- Molag Bal, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Mehrunes Dagon -- at Daedra shrines. But lately, since the Empire came in, some people have taken up worshipping the bad Daedra at these old sites. And I warn you. These are dangerous places."
 * "You like to poke your nose into doors out in the backcountry? A little suggestion. The places that look like they're made of a golden metal? With spires and towers? Those are Dwarven ruins. They're kinda dangerous -- partly because of the old Dwarven machines in them, and partly because of the kind of things that like to hide out in such old ruins. All the old ruins inside the Ghostfence, for example, are ancient Dwarven ruins. And I hear that vampires like them, too."
 * "There's a lot of money to be made looting the Dwarven ruins. Against the law, yes, but where's there's a profit to be made, folks turn a blind eye. One problem -- the artifacts are often made of metal, and heavy as hell. Unless you're a big brute, it's tough to carry away all the loot. Me, I carry a Divine Intervention or an Almsivi intervention scroll. Load up, read the scroll, and I'm back in town with a load of goods."
 * "Interested in Dwarven artifacts? Fine. Dwarven ruins are fascinating. And there's good loot. Just one suggestion: you find yourself over your head, back out, and go back to running errands and hunting rats for a while. Seriously. Those centurions -- spider centurions, sphere centurions, steam centurions -- they are far too dangerous for most adventurers."
 * "I'm [Rank] rank in [Faction], and I'd think twice about going down in a Daedric ruin without a crateful of potions and scrolls."
 * "You want my advice, rookie? I've been around. I've risen to [Rank] rank in this outfit by being smart and careful. And if I were you, I'd stay away from Daedric ruins until you have a little more experience, and a heftier kit bag."
 * "You want my advice, rookie? I've been around. I've risen to [Rank] rank in the by being smart and careful. And if I were you, I'd stay away from Daedric ruins until you have a little more experience, and a heftier kit bag."
 * "So, you think House Hlaalu is just an Imperial puppet? Shows what you know. Who really runs House Hlaalu? Not the house council. Those posers do what Orvas Dren tells them. Orvas Dren is the Camonna Tong kingpin. And one day, when the time is right, Orvas Dren, the Camonna Tong, and all right-thinking Dunmer will rise up, murder you outlanders in your beds, and restore Morrowind to its ancient glory."
 * "Want to cure a blighted queen, but don't have the cure blight spell? Then you need to buy some Scroll of Daerir's Blessing scrolls. NOT Daerir's Miracle -- they cure YOU. Daerir's Blessing scrolls cure the target. Try Crulius Pontanian at Fort Moonmoth, or Miraso Seran at Telvanni Council Hall, or Ureso Drath at the Ald'ruhn Temple."
 * "When the blight gets a mine, you have to kill or cure them. It doesn't pay to cure the foragers, workers, or warriors -- a healthy queen can produce them fast enough. But you HAVE to cure the queen, or the mine is doomed. To cure the queen, you need to cast a cure blight spell or have scroll of Daerir's Blessing."
 * "Kwama foragers and warriors won't attack us, since they're used to our smell. But they attack intruders. And you smell like an intruder. But don't worry. The queen squirts out foragers and warriors like seeds. If the foragers and warriors bother you, kill them, or run past, whichever is easier. But do us a favor, and don't kill the workers. They won't bother you, and we need them to keep the queen laying and the eggs ripening."
 * "We miners don't grow the eggs. We just harvest them. The queen lays the eggs, the workers plant them, tend them, and nourish them, and we harvest them. Doesn't hurt the colony. They grow far more than they need."
 * "Kushtashpi, that is the name of old Daedric stones west of Ahemmusa camp. No one goes there. It is a deep and dark place."
 * "The ancient Dunmer stronghold at Valenvaryon... we have seen orcs there. Orcs worship Malacath. It is a bad place."
 * "At the ruins of Assurnabitashpi, they have an old shrine to Mehrunes Dagon. Stay far from that place -- it is cursed."
 * "Vampires have returned to Vvardenfell. In the ruins of the Deep Elves at Druscashti. They are foul, and must be destroyed... but these are difficult times, and who can risk his life or his tribe by drawing the attention of such creatures?"
 * "The old stones at Zergonipal... beneath those stones are dark chambers and a great statue. None of our people have been there in many years."
 * "Are you interested in seeing the old places of the Daedra worshippers? Look upon Esutanamus. It sits upon an island east of the mainland beaches, southeast of the Telvanni town of Tel Mora. Sometimes a champion will enter there in search of ancient weapons and treasures."
 * "South and west of Kushtashpi, the old Daedric place west of Ahemmusa camp, is the entrance to an old cavern called Sanit. That is where they found two hunter dead, their flesh white and bloated by the corprus. That is not a place where a wise man would go."
 * "Everyone knows the people who worship Mehrunes Dagon have returned to Indoranyon. It is none of our business, and they are very unpleasant if disturbed. They stay in the dark, and do not bother us or our herds."
 * "Do the old places of the Deep Elves interest you? then you must look upon Nchuleft. That place is very old, and you can still go down inside. The walls still glow with strange lights, and terrible things walk and squeal in the passages."
 * "Southeast of Zainab camp is an old cave they call Pulk. Everyone says there are bandits hiding there. But I do not know if it is true. I have not seen for myself."
 * "Southeast of Erabenimsun camp is an old stone place called Tusenend. That is where we send outlanders when we are tired of listening to them."
 * "All outlanders are looking for the old Deep Elf places. Have you heard of Nchardumz? Maybe not. Maybe you will be surprised when you see it."
 * "Do the old places of the Deep Elves interest you? Then you should go see Nchuleftingth. The walls still glow with strange lights, and terrible things walk and squeal in the passages. it is a bad place, and very dangerous, but it is filled with wonders."
 * "This is a dangerous place, so none of the House people will come here. So we have kept the secret of the ebony all to ourselves. Now you know our secret. you are brave to come so far, outlander, so we will let you live, but do not touch the ebony."
 * "There must be more diamond deposits on Vvardenfell. This kind of rock is common here. But even though people have been here for thousands of years, the island has never been fully explored."
 * "Smuggling ebony is a crime. All ebony belongs to the Emperor, so it's the crime of treason, and punished by death. But... there's so much money to be made selling black market ebony that it's a rare merchant who'll refuse to buy a piece from you. Of course, if the mine guards catch you stealing ebony, they just kill you. Which is why we don't steal ebony."
 * "Smuggling raw glass is a crime. All raw glass belongs to the Emperor, so it's the crime of treason, and punished by death. But... there's so much money to be made selling black market raw glass that it's a rare merchant who'll refuse to buy a piece from you. Of course, if the mine guards catch you stealing raw glass, they just kill you. Which is why we don't steal raw glass."

Llethri Manor

 * "You'll find the entrance at the northwest corner. Move along."
 * "You are in Llethri Manor."

Llovyn Andus

Llunela Hleran

 * "She is in the Hermitage at the Telvanni Council House."

long blade

 * "The long blade weapon discipline is the study and mastery of the broadsword, saber, longsword, claymore, katana, and dai-katana weapon styles. To use any style of weapon effectively, the user must be trained, conditioned, and skilled in its use."

Lord Irarak

 * "Lord...ha! He's just a vampire, and not even a particularly menacing one at that. His real name is Gulmon Droth. I don't know where he got all this "Lord Irarak" stuff from. What an idiot."
 * "What a moron. I've heard he's got himself holed up in the Ginith Ancestral Tomb. Has all of his little followers waiting on him hand and foot. Pathetic, that's what it is."
 * "We serve Irarak. He is our master, and one day he will bestow upon us his Dark Gift."

Lord's Mail

 * "Yes, the Lord's Mail. Quite a wondrous piece of armor. It's a tragedy it was taken."
 * "Taken from the Imperial Commission here, right? You're a friend, so if I were you, I'd talk to Rufinus there. He keeps his ears open."
 * "Yes, I heard it was found."
 * "I'm glad you returned the Lord's Mail, [PC Rank]."
 * "It's good to see the Lord's Mail in good hands again."

Lost Kogoruhn

 * "Kogoruhn? It used to be west of here. No one's been there in years."
 * "Lost Kogoruhn was somewhere north of the northern boundary of the Ghostfence. It was closer to Maar Gan than Ghostgate."
 * "Kogoruhn used to be somewhere northeast of here."
 * "Kogoruhn used to lie north of the northern boundary of the Ghostfence. It was northeast of Maar Gan and west of the present-day Vos. It was near the stronghold of Falasmaryon, which I can mark on your map."

 * "Maar Gan is a Redoran eggmining village in the northern Ashlands, north of Ald'ruhn, close to Foyada Bani-Dad, the Ghostfence, on the plains beneath Red Mountain. Monsters have been breaking through the Ghostfence here and attacking the villagers. Fortunately, monster fighters have answered the call for volunteers to come help protect Maar Gan. Pilgrims of the Tribunal Temple come to visit the Maar Gan Tower shrine where Lord Vivec outwitted the Bad Daedra Lord Mehrunes Dagon."
 * "The road leads north from the west gate of Ald'ruhn. Turn northeast -- right -- when the road forks, and head towards the village of Maar Gan. The track runs under the highland skirts of Red Mountain on the east. Maar Gan is the only settlement along the road."

magribash

mad hermit

 * "Old Big Head? He lives on an island a ways north of Ald Redaynia, if he's even still alive. Stay clear of that one, though. I think he's dangerous."

Madura Seran

 * "Some rogue Ashlanders have a small camp just south of the village. They took her there. Look for the camp past the lighted tree, up on the hill. Watch yourself."
 * "You're the one who rescued her right? It's nice to see someone of courage."
 * "You did a brave thing rescuing her from those ashlanders."
 * "Someone has killed her. It's a shame."

Morrowind lore

 * "The Imperial legions have garrisons in the major settlements, but they mostly serve as guards to keep the peace."
 * "Morrowind used to be free farmers and herders and fishermen ruled by great houses and their noble councils. But since the Imperial occupation, the Dunmer are more dependent on trade and industry."
 * "The Dunmer don't like outlanders. After four centuries, they still aren't really part of the Empire. I understand their loyalty to religion and culture, but at heart, I think they just hate other races."
 * "The raw glass deposits here on Vvardenfell are the richest in the world. There's a fortune in raw glass here. It all used to belong to the Temple, but now it belongs to the Emperor -- or anyone of his cronies he gives a mine charter."
 * "The raw ebony deposits here are the richest in the world. And they are ours. Do not touch the ebony, outlander."
 * "The raw ebony deposits here on Vvardenfell are the richest in the world. And the deposit in Caldera is the biggest on Vvardenfell. There's a fortune in ebony here. It all used to belong to the Temple, but now it belongs to the Emperor -- or anyone of his cronies he gives a mine charter."
 * "We have grown too complacent about the threat of Dagoth Ur and Red Mountain. For ages we've relied on the Tribunal to contain the menace. But Dagoth Ur's power is waxing as the Tribunal's power is waning. The Legion garrisons here are insufficient to protect our settlements, and there's no hope for reinforcements. Our people have always relied on a charismatic leader to rally squabbling factions against a common foe. You are that leader. Now we must rely on you."
 * "Mournhold is built on the site on a much older city. You won't find any evidence above ground, but down in the sewers you can find ways into the old ruins."
 * "Though some Dunmer are Imperial cult initiates, most of them are also members of the Tribunal Temple. Religious fervor is exceptional in the Empire, compared with Morrowind's more passionate Temple worshippers, and Dunmer who adopt the Imperial cult often share the moderation and religious tolerance of the Imperial culture."
 * "Let me tell you about Dunmer who join the Imperial cult. Though some Dunmer are Imperial cult initiates, most of these are also nominal members of the Tribunal Temple. Religious fervor is exceptional in the Empire, compared with Morrowind's more passionate Temple worshippers, and Dunmer who adopt the Imperial cult often share the moderation and religious tolerance of the Imperial culture."
 * "The Morag Tong are executioners and assassins who operate within the law and under a strict code of behavior. They have nothing to do with the Dark Brotherhood; the Morag Tong and the Dark Brotherhood are bitter enemies."
 * "In Morrowind, whether you're a professional mercenary, or a pilgrim or traveler, you'll want some armor. Shields and tower Shields are basic armor protection, but limit you to one-handed weapons. For body armor, get a cuirass first for the chest, then greaves for the legs, helm for the head, and boots for the feet. Add left an right pauldrons for upper arms and gauntlets or bracers for lower arms. Balance protection against weight; you can't fight if you're exhausted by the weight of your armor."
 * "Let me tell you about the armor styles most common in Morrowind. The heavy armor styles, called 'Legion' or 'knight' style in the West and 'ebony' style in the East, require great strength and endurance. The light armor styles, called 'militia' in the West and 'Ashlander' in the East, favors speed and agility. The medium armor styles, called 'Imperial guard' in the West and 'Great House' in the East, are compromises between the heavy and light styles, balancing protection against mobility."
 * "Let me tell you about affairs of honor. Native Dunmer and Imperials alike recognize a noble's obligation to answer a challenge of honor. A challenge of honor is a public declaration of a scandal against a private party. Only nobles fight duels, and the higher the rank, the stronger the obligation. Law and custom despises dishonorable duelists. If the victim was bullied, intimidated, or goaded by a stronger party with suspect motives, magistrates often convict the stronger party of foul murder."
 * "Let me tell you about the three major cultural groups of Morrowind. Ashlanders are nomadic barbarians, living in camps of small portable huts. Recent Imperial colonies like Pelagiad look like the same sturdy half-timbered homes and stone castles you might see in Daggerfall or any other Western province. The native Dunmer cultures are the civilized Great House societies of House Redoran, House Hlaalu, and House Telvanni, each with their own architectures, customs, and traditions."

 * "Weapons are less effective as they wear out. Eventually they break, and are useless until you repair them. A worn weapon does only part of the damage it should do. Learn to repair your weapons, or pay a smith to do it."
 * "You should know how the Camonna Tong feels about killing. According to the criminal customs of the Camonna Tong, killing is justifiable on any practical grounds -- in particular, justifiable if you can get away with it, and it serves your purpose. Killing is useful to educate and intimidate others, especially when brutal, cruel, and arbitrary. Killing is neither sinful nor dishonorable, but may be imprudent or wasteful."

 * "Let me tell you a little about the Blight. The Blight is a weather phenomenon associated with Vvardenfell's colossal volcano, Red Mountain. Persistent within the Ghostfence -- that is, within the crater on the volcano's outer slopes -- and intermittent near the volcano, the Blight is a health-threatening, ash-heavy volcanic cloud. Plants and creatures exposed to the Blight may contract a variety of blight diseases. So stay away from Red Mountain and the Blight, unless you're some mighty hero or wizard."
 * "Within the Ghostfence, on Red Mountain's slopes, and in is crater, the weather is always blighted and gloomy."
 * "The Blight is weather caused by the big volcano, Red Mountain."

 * "Of Morrowind's five Great Houses, three are represented on Vvardenfell. House Redoran, House Hlaalu, and House Telvanni."

 * "By tradition, Ashlanders claim the right to raid other Ashlander tribes -- and non-Ashlander settlements -- for booty and slaves."
 * "Foul murder is punished by compensation, hard labor, or sometimes by writ of assassination."
 * "By Redoran customs, killing is justified in war, self-defense, defense of property, affairs of honor, and House Wars affairs. Other killings are foul murder, and must be punished."
 * "We don't like foreigners or outlanders much in Morrowind. We are a proud people, and we don't like being a conqeured nation."
 * "In Telvanni District, the few Telvanni tower towns are just big villages with wizard towers."
 * "Town and city Dunmer live either in the metropolitan style of Vivec City, the urban style of towns like Ald'ruhn, or the Imperial style of recent settlements like Caldera."

 * "The native Dunmer cultures are the civilized Great House societies of House Redoran, House Hlaalu, and House Telvanni, each with their own architectures, customs, and traditions."

 * "Three cultures live obn Vvardenfel: the nomadic Ashlanders: the settled House Dunmer, and the Western Imperial colonists of all races."
 * "The Morag Tong are honorable, law-abiding executioners and assassins. They hate the Dark Brotherhood, the outlaw Western assassins guild."
 * "Dunmer say they hate necromancers, vampires, and all undead. But they guard their tombs with the ghosts and animated spirits of their ancestors. What's the difference?"
 * "Most Dunmer worship the Tribunal, three mortals who became gods in the distant past before Tiber Septim. The Temple takes care of the poor, provides health and education, and teaches family duty."
 * "The Imperial legions are the greatest fighting force Tamriel has ever known. In Morrowind they serve as guards, but the garrisons are insurance that the Dunmer will never rise in rebellion against the Empire."
 * "The Imperial legions are mighty warriors. No one can defeat them when they march in rows in open fields. But here, in our ashlands and wild places, they are no match for us."
 * "The Imperial cult worships the Nine Divines, Akatosh, Dibella, Arkay, Zenithar, Mara, Stendarr, Kynareth, and Julianous, and Tiber Septim, founder and patron of the Empire. Imperials are more tolerant than Dunmer when it comes to religion."

 * "The two criminal guilds here are the Camonna Tong, the native criminal syndicate, and the Thieves Guild, the Imperial newcomers. The Thieves Guild is fighting for its life against the ruthless and well-established Camonna Tong."
 * "Slavery is protected by law in Morrowind. Slavery is illegal throughout the rest of the Empire. But some Dunmer still defend their 'ancient right' to own slaves. In Morrowind slaves are bound by enchanted slaver bracers. The bracers drain the magicka from the slaves so they can't use magic to escape. Unless you have a key, you can't get the slave bracers off. The Emperor should put a stop to slavery, but the Dunmer claim the right to own slaves is gauranteed by the Armistice."
 * "Ashlanders live with their herds in camps in the wilderness. They are primitive people, but proud, and I fear they can never become civilized."

necromancy

 * "In the Empire, body and spirit are protected as property, and may not be used without permission of the owner, and public display of the living dead is widely prohibited. But necromancy itself is not really illegal."
 * "In the Empire, mages may legally purchase corpses and souls for philosophical research, and may do with them as they wish in private."

Nerevarine

 * "It's the reincarnation of some Dark Elven hero, supposed to come and drive the Empire out of Morrowind. Just some local superstition... but the Temple says it's wicked and evil, and you'll be very sorry if you talk about it with the priests and Temple guard."

Orc

 * "The Orcs are savage half-men that the Westerners call 'human'. They should go back to their mountains in the West and leave us alone. The Emperor uses them as his soldiers, and they are indeed fierce warriors, cunning with leather and steel."
 * "They call us barbarians because we are brave in war and we laugh at hardship. But we have earned our citizenship by service in the legions, and we are as civilized as any race. We make the finest weapons and armor in the world, and our warriors are the bravest and toughest in Tamriel."
 * "The Orc people of the Wrothgarian and Dragontail Mountains are brave and hardy barbarians. Once they were feared and hated by everyone else in Tamriel. Now many have gained an education and Imperial citizenship through service in the legions. Their armorers are the finest in the world, and Orc warriors in heavy armor are the best front-line troops in all Tamriel. Detractors say that Orcs are rough and cruel, but Orcs say they are hard, and fair, and stern, but just."
 * "Orcs are the beast barbarians of the Wrothgarian and Dragontail Mountains. They are wonderful warriors and armorers, but they are not civilized beings, and they worship the Bad Daedra. They have come as legion veterans to settle in Morrowind, and by law, they have rights as citizens. Many serve us as reliable mercenaries and hireings, and as a people, they may someday come to be civilized. But many Orcs are savages and outlaws, and as a race they cannot be trusted."

Ordinators

Padomaic Ocean

 * "The waters of the Padomaic Ocean completely surround Tamriel. The continent of Akavir lies across the Padomaic Ocean to the east, and the continent of Atmora lies across the Sea of Ghosts to the north."

Palace of Vivec

 * "The Palace of Vivec is the abode of the mortal form of the god-hero Lord Vivec, the Warrior-Poet of the three deities who comprise Almsivi, the divine patrons of the Tribunal Temple. Only the most devout are admitted to the presence of Lord Vivec, and only at his initiation. Beneath the Palace of Vivec is the Puzzle Canal, a place of worship and testing for questing heroes hoping to receive Vivec's favor. Many choice treasures are guarded by Daedric servants in the Puzzle Canal's dark passages."

patron

 * "You have a patron already, %PCName."

Peace in Black Marsh

 * "A sailor from Soulrest says he heard the Expeditionary Force has put down the tribal uprisings in Black Marsh. He says local traders expect exports of gold and timber to resume after the plantations and mines are rebuilt."

Peakstar

 * "Peakstar was an Ashlander girl found washed ashore near Ald Redaynia. She was raised by the Urshilaku, and many believed she was the Incarnate. Some Ashlanders believe that Peakstar was a false Incarnate and that she is dead. Others believe that she will soon return to fulfill the rest of the prophecies. Temple warriors claim she was captured and imprisoned. No one really knows what happened to her."
 * "Yeah. Right. The Temple SAYS she's dead. But did they produce a body? I don't see no body."
 * "I tell you. The Temple says she's dead. So how could she be the Nerevarine if she's dead?"

Pelagiad

 * "The Empire built a little fort here to guard the roads between Vivec, Seyda Neen, Balmora, and points north. And then some veterans took their mustering-out pay and built themselves some little farms here. And pretty soon there's a few shops and a tradehouse. It's a pleasant little village. If you didn't know better, you'd think you were in Daggerfall or some other High Rock town."
 * "Pelagiad is a newly charted Imperial village between Balmora and Vivec City on the western edge of the Ascadian Isles region. The village is right outside the Imperial Legion garrison at Fort Pelagiad. The houses and shops are built in the Western Imperial style, and Pelagiad looks more like a village in the western Empire than a Morrowind settlement."

Pemenie the trader

 * "Oh, that one. She's got a bounty on her head, I believe, although no one would bother trying to collect on it. She's a slippery one. Often deals in shoddy items. Great promise, but low reward. You know?"

pilgrimage

 * "The pilgrimage shrine nearby commemorates the labor and inspiration of the Tribunal in creating and maintaining the arcane barriers of the Ghostgate. It also memorializes the courage and sacrifice of the Ordinators, Buoyant Armigers, crusaders, and pilgrims who have lost their lives here defending Morrowind against the damnable hosts of Dagoth Ur."

pilgrimages

 * "A book called The Pilgrim's Path describes many of the Temple's pilgrimages and their shrines."
 * "At pilgrimage sites the Temple maintains shrines commemorating sacred events. By retracing the holy feats of saints and heroes, and by contemplating their experiences, the faithful may advance on the path of enlightenment."
 * "The most pious members of the Temple make pilgrimages to various sites on Vvardenfell where gods, saints, and heroes have faced test and trials."

Unrest in Cyrodiil City

 * "Uriel Septim is sick, and wizards say his heir, Geldall Septim, and the younger Septims, Enman and Ebel, are just doppelgangers placed in the household during Jagar Tharn's tenture as Imperial Battlemage. They say the Guard charged a mob demanding destruction of the false heirs... lots of folks were killed."
