"If the Night Mother is Potema, then who is the Wolf-Hearted Queen buried in Potema's Catacombs?" the housekeeper asked on behalf of the lord. This was an old adventure they experienced together, and they also saw with their own eyes the immortal ghost of the Wolfheart Queen in the catacombs of Dugu City.
"It is said to be one of her maids." Clown Cicero shrugged: "At the end of the 10-year siege of Dugu, it was rumored that Queen Wolfheart transformed everyone around her into undead creatures."
"So that's it." The Lord nodded slightly: "So, in order to take revenge, Potema, the Wolf-Hearted Queen, even sacrificed herself."
"That's it, my lord." Clown Cicero also agreed with the lord's words: "This is in line with her character of preferring death to surrender and fighting until death." Isn't it? Otherwise, the siege of Dugu City would not have lasted for 10 years. .
"Master, do you want to save this evil wolf-hearted queen?" the housekeeper asked the thoughts of all the ladies present.
"Why not?" The Lord thought further: "Refer to the redemption of Vivec by the clockwork goddess Anufanahi. I have reason to believe that this is the only chance to end the dual divinity of Sithis, the father of fear. .”
"Master wants to separate the two divinities of Mephala and Sithis?" The housekeeper obviously understood the lord's thoughts best.
"Yes, that's it." Wu Chen explained the specific steps in front of the clown Cicero: "Use the 'Crimson Dragon Break' that can change the destiny to give the Night Mother my "Golden Tree Law". It will be with The divine bond of Sithis, the Father of Fear, was transformed into the "Ring of Fear". This completely separates this part of the dichotomy from Mephala's divinity. Not surprisingly, we will get a demigod-level 'Incarnation of Sithis'. Or 'Lady Death'. "
"However, because the caesarean section has exhausted the magic power, the Night Mother's life is in danger." The housekeeper expressed the lord's worries: "So Cicero, is there any way to remedy this?"
"Yes, ma'am." The clown Cicero unexpectedly obeyed: "Obsidian shell."
The Obsidian Husk is a magical artifact belonging to Mephala, whose origins are still shrouded in mystery. Some believe it to be a shard of Oblivion brought into Nirn by an unknown Daedra. Others believe that it is born with the magic of annihilation and contains a small part of Mephala's essence (the Creation of Padome). Whatever its origin, its power is terrifying.
Obsidian husks are said to be able to create and control various shadow realms, from small shadows to complex dark creatures possessing extraordinary intelligence and endless power. It was also said that additional spells could bind the artifact. But like all magical artifacts, the obsidian shell can never be possessed by one person for a long time. At some point in time, members of the Spider Cult discovered the powerful capabilities of the obsidian shell and spread this discovery among their members. The members of the Order of Mephala are plotting against each other and fighting over it. The most powerful members of the Spider Order discovered that they could use their obsidian shells to cast spells on others. Shrouded in shadow, these afflicted beings are endowed with magical agility and strength but can lose their sanity - these "shadows" obey the call of The Obsidian Husk's master.
"So, where is this obsidian shell?"
"Master, in the Fungus Grotto." Librarian Dawn Warhammer Xili had read relevant books.
Fungal Grotto is a large cave located in the western part of Stonefall in Morrowind. These vast caverns beneath the fallen volcanic rocks were once used by ancient elves for unknown purposes, but were abandoned by the elves long ago. During the Second Age it was occupied by goblins and other denizens of the underworld.
In 2E 582, a newcomer to the warrior-mage Undaunted guild met Vila Theran, the leader of the Spider Order, in the Fungus Grotto. She is leading a group of Mephala worshipers to find a shrine inside, and asks the Dauntless to help clear the cave of goblins and crab spirits. The Dauntless One, under the instructions of Vera Seran, killed the Goblin Chief and stuck his head on a spike, allowing the other Goblins to follow the Dauntless One's command to fight the Crab Spirit. Vera Sellan also said that her cause is just, so for those who are fearless, rest assured. But after killing the Crab Spirit King and finding the shrine, she coldly asked the Fearless to leave, saying that your slow brains could not understand the information inside.
Later, the Spider Order led by Vera Seran took over Fungal Grotto, and the Warriors' Guild began fighting them, but suffered heavy losses. The Dauntless came to help, and the leader of the Fighters Guild, the Defender Two-Blades, said these cultists "can turn flesh into shadow and rebellion into loyalty." Dauntless helps rescue some Fighters Guild members and learns that the Spider Order has been attracting ignorant travelers into the grotto and turning them into shadow creatures loyal to the Spider Order. The Fearless entered the cave and obtained the obsidian shell, an artifact that allowed the Spider Order to transform. Defender Two Swords planned to destroy it, but Vera Seran appeared to stop it. During the battle, the Defender and the Two Swords will use the obsidian shell to create a barrier to defend against Valar's shadow corruption, and ultimately win.
"I heard that the stone crashed in the great cataclysm of the Red Year." The housekeeper looked at the clown Cicero again.
"Yes, ma'am." Clown Cicero did know the exact answer: "Later, the Obsidian Shell was brought to Solseheim Island by the Tribunal Temple and was hidden in the treasure house of Ashfall Tears."
"That's why you came to ask for help." After going in a big circle, the result is one-third of an acre of land owned by the lord.
"That's it, my lord." This is what I heard the Night Mother murmur. Although no one has listened to the call of the Night Mother since the death of the last 'listener', but on the day you returned from Solseheim Island, that listener turned out to be me, only me. "The clown Cicero could not suppress his excitement. It seemed that becoming the listener of the Night Mother was his long-term wish. It was even the only wish in his heart.
"Okay, let Mother Drevlan find this obsidian shell as soon as possible and send it to the castle." The Lord ordered immediately.
"As you command, my master." The housekeeper immediately went to do it.
"Sir, in addition to the Obsidian Shell, you also need the Blade of Sorrow." Clown Cicero reminded hurriedly.
"Where is the Blade of Sorrow?" The Lord also expected it.
"Astrid, the new president of the Dark Brotherhood." Clown Cicero's expression was very complicated.
"Ah, they are also members of my family." Wu Chen was unmoved: "Let Astrid come too."
"Okay, Master." The housekeeper's smile was still the same gentle.
Although I have said it many times before. But it still has to be said that the resources that become the Lord of Ximu are completely different from those of the previous Skyrim Heroes.
If you put yourself in his shoes, you can understand why the desperate clown Cicero came to the door to ask for help at all costs. Whether it's the obsidian shell, the Blade of Sorrow, the Demus Magic Stone quietly buried under the Golden Mountain, or the lord's exclusive high-dimensional hand. Any one of them is a wishful thinking that the clown Cicero cannot achieve based on his personal ability alone.
Because this is not a task that can be achieved by one person's efforts alone. What's more, the night mother, who was in danger, couldn't afford to wait.
