Threads of the WebspinnerEdit

Depending on how much exploring of the game you've done, you may have come across a number of Sanguine items that increase various skills when worn. These items are actually part of a collection of 27 created by the Daedra Lord Sanguine for the Morag Tong patron, Mephala. Twenty-six of the items can be found scattered across Vvardenfell - the last, the Amulet of Sanguine Enterprise, is held by the Morag Tong Grandmaster, Eno Hlaalu in Vivec.

The Sanguine ItemsEdit

Speak with Grandmaster Eno Hlaalu about the items and he will tell you that if you return all of the remaining 26, you will receive an elaborate reward from Mephala. You can return the items to Hlaalu at any time, though you must do so before you become Grandmaster of the Morag Tong and he disappears. Most of the Sanguine items are owned by Dark Brotherhood agents and Mehrunes Dagon worshippers who will generally attack you on sight, meaning you are safe from the law. Unfortunately, Eno will only give you the location of two of the items, so you'll have to find the rest yourself.

#	Item	Skill	Owner	Location	Notes
1	Sanguine Enterprise, Amulet of	Mercantile	Eno Hlaalu	Vivec Arena	This is the one item you don't need to find.
2	Sanguine Glib Speech, Amulet of	Speechcraft	Shotherra	Thongar's Tradehouse in Khuul	She is non-hostile, with no clues given that she has the amulet. You can taunt her to start the fight.
3	Sanguine Nimble Armor, Amulet of	Light Armor	Severa Magia	Ald Sotha northeast of Vivec	She is encountered during the quest Execute Severa Magia.
4	Sanguine Fluid Evasion, Ring of	Unarmored
5	Sanguine Swiftblade, Glove of	Short Blade
6	Sanguine Balanced Armor, Belt of	Medium Armor	Relas Arothan	Assernerairan , found on the Underworks level of the St. Olms Canton in Vivec	He is encountered during the quest Execute Durus Marius.
7	Sanguine Deep Biting, Belt of	Axe
8	Sanguine Denial, Belt of	Block	Movis Darys	Ald'ruhn Mages Guild	You can receive this belt as part of a quest to persuade him to join the Guild. If you can't persuade (or bribe) him, you'll have to kill him. You can taunty him to start the fight.
9	Sanguine Fleetness, Belt of	Athletics	Hrordis	Halfway Tavern in Pelagiad	Eno Hlaalu will ask for it directly (one of two Sanguine items he will ask for), if you haven't already gotten it and handed it in to him. Under normal circumstances, you won't be able to persuade Hrordis or steal the belt - or even Taunt her into attacking you, as all she says is "goodbye" - so you are forced to kill her outright. However, if you're diseased, a vampire, or naked, you'll be able to talk to her. Mentioning Hrordis or Sanguine Fleetness will get you nowhere (she'll become annoyed and say goodbye), but mention Mehrunes Dagon (if you have the conversation topic) and she'll attack.
10	Sanguine Hewing, Belt of	Long Blade	Durus Marius	Assernerairan, found on the Underworks level of St. Olms Canton in Vivec	He is encountered during the quest Execute Durus Marius.
11	Sanguine Sureflight, Belt of	Marksman
12	Sanguine Impaling Thrus, Belt of [sic]	Spear	Gluronk gra-Shula	2nd floor of Sadrith Mora's Gateway Inn: North Wing.	She is non-hostile. It's possible to catch her alone and murder her with no witnesses, or taunt her into attacking, though.
13	Sanguine Martial Craft, Belt of	Armorer	Carecalmo	Ashalmimilkala on the west coast of Vvardenfell, west of Balmora, north of Hla Oad	He is encountered during the quest Ultimatum for Carecalmo.
14	Sanguine Smiting, Belt of	Blunt Weapon	Domba	Ald Daedroth shrine	She is located on an island north of the Ahemmusa Camp, and southeast of Dagon Fel.
15	Sanguine Stolid Armor, Belt of	Heavy Armor	Mindeli Saren	Yasammidan	She is on the far western coast of the mainland, northwest of Gnisis.
16	Sanguine Horny Fist, Glove of	Hand-to-hand	Guril Retheran	On the bottom level of the Flowers of Gold Cornerclub in the Redoran Canton	He is encountered during Writ for Guril Retheran quest.
17	Sanguine Safekeeping, Glove of	Security	Inganar	Ularradallaku	He can be found inside the Ghostfence, roughly northeast of Ald'ruhn and just west of Dagoth Ur.
18	Sanguine Golden Wisdom, Ring of	Alteration	Talis Veran	Ebernanit	The shrine he is at is located in the Ashlands.
19	Sanguine Green Wisdom, Ring of	Restoration	Gnaw Tooth	Ald Daedroth shrine	He's found in the right wing of the shrine, on an island north of the Ahemmusa Camp and southeast of Dagon Fel.
20	Sanguine Red Wisdom, Ring of	Destruction	Llandrale Varam	Ald Sotha, northeast of Vivec.	She is encountered during the quest Execute Severa Magia.
21	Sanguine Transcendence, Ring of	Conjuration
22	Sanguine Transfiguring, Ring of	Enchant
23	Sanguine Silver Wisdom, Ring of	Illusion	Earmil	Assurnabitashpi, along the northern coast east of Khuul	There are two entrances and areas in this shrine, so if you can't find Earmil in one area, try the other.
24	Sanguine Sublime Wisdom, Ring of	Alchemy	Anel Rethelas	Yasammidan on the far western coast of the mainland, northwest of Gnisis.	This is the other one of the two Sanguine items that Eno will explicitly ask for.
25	Sanguine Unseen Wisdom, Ring of	Mysticism	Erundil	Indoranyon, on the eastern coast, north of Tel Aruhn.	He is non-hostile, but can be taunted into fighting or simply murdered, as there are no witnesses.
26	Sanguine Leaping, Shoes of	Acrobatics	Dro'Zaymar	Canal South-Three in the St. Delyn Canton.	He is non-hostile, but since there are no witnesses, you are relatively safe to do as you please. It is possible to pickpocket the Sanguine item from him, though what a Khajiit is doing with shoes in the first place is anyone's guess, since he can't wear them.
27	Sanguine Stalking, Shoes of	Sneak	Thovasi Alen	Assarnatamat	The Daedric shrine where she's located is found northeast of Balmora (southeast of Caldera), just inside the Ashlands region.

Non-hostile NPCsEdit

These NPCs are not hostile and have no related quest (see above list for more detail):

• Dro'Zaymar, Canal South-Three in the St. Delyn Canton
• Gluronk gra-Shula, 2nd floor of Sadrith Mora's Gateway Inn: North Wing
• Shotherra, Thongar's Tradehouse in Khuul
• Erundil, Indoranyon, on the eastern coast, north of Tel Aruhn

RewardEdit

Once you turn in all 27 Sanguine items to Eno Hlaalu, you are rewarded with Mephala's Skill, a cheap spell that grants Chameleon 50 pts and Fortify Attack 10 pts for 60 seconds for 30 magicka and never fails. This is the only way of acquiring the Fortify Attack effect for creating custom spells.

NotesEdit

• The two Sanguine items he asks for directly, Belt of Sanguine Fleetness and Ring of Sanguine Sublime Wisdom, can only be returned once you've been given the special duty for them.
• The items are all clothing, and thus unaffected by Disintegrate Armor, so they will always be worn by the character unless they've got something better. Since you can't pickpocket equipped items, killing them is usually the only option. Many are hostile, and some are subjects of other quests, so you can safely kill them anyhow. But a few are peaceful, and some cannot even be taunted into attacking as they will not speak to you. In this case a Frenzy spell may be your best choice to deal with this quest without incurring a large bounty.
• Clicking the sanguine enterprise topic may incorrectly report that you've returned all 26 missing threads when you've only returned 25.
• You may not notice when the Mephala's Skill has been added. Be sure to check your spell list.
  • Some versions of Morrowind Patch Project may prevent Mephala's Skill from being added to your spell list when all required conditions have been met. You can use the AddSpell console command with the spell ID SkillMephala_SP to correct this issue.^{[verification needed — see talk page]}
• If you complete all the Morag Tong quests and explore the entire island you will most likely have found 22 Sanguine items. The remaining 4 are in the possession of non-hostile NPCs. If you are extremely meticulous about asking people for rumors you will get vague hints for 2 NPCs (Gluronk gra-Shula and Dro'Zaymar). The remaining 2 have no related quests, no rumors and are not hostile, the only links with the others being that they both provide no service, one is an assassin, and the other is found in a daedra shrine. Wearing a constant "Detect Enchantment" item and murdering suspect non-hostile NPCs might be the only way to acquire the final two items. One could assume this quest is not designed to be completed in a normal playthrough without resorting to guides.
• All of the items you delivered to Eno Hlaalu as part of this quest are stored in his inventory. When you kill him just after finishing this quest, you'll get them back complete for own benefit.
• Domba and Gnaw Tooth in Ald Daedroth are severely outmatched by the Witchhunters nearby and will most likely die within seconds of your entry into the Right Wing. If you do not loot their bodies before they despawn, you cannot complete this quest.
• Despite sharing a similar name, the Shortbow of Sanguine Sureflight is not a part of the set.
