Detailed WalkthroughEdit

Speak to Maj al-Ragath to get the details of this quest.

What's the pledge today?
"Elden Hollow! Daedra are springing up like weeds in the shadows of the Elden Tree. Must be something in the soil.
Pick up a scythe and get hacking!"
And if I can handle more?
"Daedra tend to have a flare for the dramatic. All doom and gloom.
Seek out this overwrought dire portent called the Opus of Torment, then burn that trash and scatter the ashes across Oblivion. See how they like that!"
Right. I pledge to explore Elden Hollow and return Undaunted.

Once you have accepted the quest, you can enter the Elden Hollow II dungeon either by accessing the dungeon through the Dungeon Finder, or heading to Grahtwood and entering the dungeon there with a group. You have the choice of entering the normal dungeon or the veteran version, this choice will affect if you can achieve the optional step and your rewards.

When inside the dungeon, you will need to progress through the dungeon, slaying the following bosses, the Dark Root, Murklight and Bogdan the Nightflame. With the last boss, if you are in the veteran dungeon, you have the option of completing the optional task of first reading the Opus of Torment to activate hard mode and then defeating Bogdan the Nightflame:

The Opus of Torment reads: "Many have walked these steps. Now their bones line my walls. They come seeking glory, but how could one find glory in my shadow? Like those who came before, your life has always been mine, but a final choice remains. If you understand your fate, walk down the steps, and I'll carry you to your destiny. Or, if you know no fear, burn this scroll, and I will bid you glimpse my nightmare.".

Once you have completed the task, you can return to Maj al-Ragath at any of the Undaunted Enclaves, and speak with her to complete the quest:

"Were the stories true? Did you encounter an army of nightmarish Daedra, or was the threat nothing more than scamps frolicking the wood?"
I stepped into Oblivion itself and slayed Bogdan the Nightflame at the seat of his power.
"Oblivion? I didn't know the Elden tree's roots went that deep!
I hope you left something behind to let those twisted monsters know they aren't safe from the Undaunted!"
Only Bogdan's slaughtered corpse. What is that worth? / What is Bogdan the Nightflame's death worth?
Condition Dialogue
Normal mode completed "Teaching the Daedra the concept of fear is always worth a fair share! Take your key and your cut, then shake the dirt and blood off and share the story of your victory!
It'll be hard to out do a trip to Oblivion, but tomorrow we'll try!"
Veteran mode completed "Dipping your toes into Oblivion would merit some respect, but bringing home a souvenir Daedra head more than earns your cut.
Take your prize and I'll see if I can't send you through the gates again tomorrow!"
Veteran Hard Mode completed "A lot! Not to mention adding insult to injury by torching the Opus of Torment. Can't let that go without reward, eh?
Take your key and your cut! We'll be talking of this victory for some time to come, unless tomorrow you best it!"

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
