DialogueEdit
Spindleclutch IEdit
He can be found tied up in a cocoon, next to the exit, in the room with the Whisperer.
- "It was a nightmare! A nightmare!
- Praxin and his squad succumbed to the whispers. (During Deadly Whispers)
- "I feel so … violated. What that thing did to my soldiers … what it did to me! I may never sleep soundly again.
Thank you. If you hadn't come along … well, I don't want to even imagine.
- "Now that you've given me back my life, I have much to think about.
Maybe I'll take some time to rest before I put together another expedition. The Fighters Guild is in your debt, my friend."
Otherwise this will be asked:
- What was that thing?
- "A monster! No doubt some vial beast from the darkest reaches of Oblivion!
I can't imagine how it got here. And I have no idea why it would do such things to our soldiers."
- "A monster! No doubt some vial beast from the darkest reaches of Oblivion!
Spindleclutch IIEdit
When you return to the Spindleclutch caves, you can find Sud-Hareem fighting off a Thralled Warrior. Once they are dead, Guardian Sud-Hareem can be spoken to.
- "I remember you! You helped us on our last visit to this evil place. Thank the Divines you returned! I need your help. It's my son."
Or if you haven't done Spindleclutch I, he'll say:
- "You! You have to help me! You have to help me find my son."
Either lead to the same question:
- What's going on?
- "My friends and I have been using these caves as a makeshift base. I thought we were safe here. I'd left to check in with superiors in the Fighters Guild. I returned to find the caves overrun with bandits, and my friends missing."
- And your son?
- "My son, At'avar was one of those I left here, My friends Falour and Mereel can take care of themselves, but At'avar is still young. I have to make sure he's all right, and I cannot make it through these bandits on my own. Please, will you help me?"
- Let's go.
Sud-Hareem will run ahead, until he finds, Mereel. He will then question Mereel about what happened.
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "Over there! It's Mereel!"
- Mereel: "Sud-Hareem? I thought you were dead. They came in the night. Overwhelmed us."
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "Who did this? Where's At'avar?"
- Mereel: "I don't know. At'avar and Faulor ran farther in when we were attacked."
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "At'avar! Where are you?"
The Blood Spawn then leaps down and attacks the group. Once it is destroyed, Sud-Hareem wil come to a conclusion.
- Mereel: "Holy Divines, look at the size of that thing!"
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "First the blood fiend, now a gargoyle. That settles it. Vampires."
- Mereel: "Vampires? You think they know what they're dealing with?"
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "If not, they're in for a painful lesson."
There is now an opportunity to ask him questions:
- "If anything happened to At'avar …."
- Why would you live in these ruins?
- "My friends and I are monster hunters. We specialize in killing unnatural creatures. Werewolves, Daedra, and so on. We prefer operating in out-of-the-way locations. Spindleclutch is close to Daggerfall, while offering us the privacy we need."
- We defeated the evil here. Did something happen after I left?
- "The Whisperer was dead. The Guild pulled out because the ruins hold no tactical value. Most of us would like to forget everything that happened here. We lost a lot of good people."
- I saved as many as I could.
- "And we're grateful. Without you, none of us would have survived. Now, it seems I'll be in you're [sic] debt, twice-over."
Further in the caverns, Sud-Hareem will come across the spirit of Praxin Douare who seems confused about what is happening.
- Praxin Douare "Sud-Hareem! You've escaped!"
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "Yes, Praxin. The Whisperer is gone."
- Praxin Douare "No. You can't be real. I was going to rescue you. And then I heard her voice."
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "It's over, Praxin. You can rest now."
- Mereel: "Boss, I don't think he's listening."
- Praxin Douare: "You aren't real. You're one of her illusions. I won't let you stop us!"
- Mereel: "Why is nothing ever easy?"
- Praxin Douare: "Join my nightmare."
After Praxin is killed:
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "Rest well, Praxin. You cheated at cards, but you didn't deserve this." [A noise can be heard elsewhere in the room.]
- "Did you hear that?"
- "There's someone alive over here!"
- <He reaches a giant cocoon.>
- "Help me get this cocoon open."
- <Faulor is broken out of the cocoon.>
- "Faulor? Can you hear me?"
- Faulor: "Boss? They have At'avar. Their leader took him farther in the ruins. Nasty looking bloodsucker."
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "I don't care how nasty their leader is. We're smashing in every vampire head we see until I get my son back. You in?"
- Faulor: "How can I say no to a plan like that?"
After Urvan Veleth is defeated, the fighters guild group will rush into the vampire's lair:
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "At'avar! Where are you?"
- Faulor: "I don't like this."
- <Sud-Hareem then sees At'avar.>
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "At'avar! Wake up! Wake up!"
- Mereel: "Have to agree with the elf, boss. There's some serious magic here. This place screams 'ambush'."
- <A flash of bright light fills the room.>
- Vorenor Winterbourne: "Ambush. What a lovely idea."
Once Vorenor Winterbourne is dead, you can speak with Sud-Hareem:
- "Why isn't … why isn't he breathing?
Oh gods, we're too late." - What do you mean too late?
- "I mean too late! He's been infected too long. I've seen it before. Soon he'll be one of them. A vampire.
- I … I have to stop this. I have to stop him from coming back.
Don't I?"
- "Is there? You don't just recover from vampirism.
Gods, what am I talking about? He's my son! I have to try.
I'm not ready to lose him."
- "You're right. It has to be done. It has to."
If you advised Sud-Hareem to give his son a chance, he will pray to Stendarr for the first time in his life.
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "Merciful Stendarr, hear my prayer. I've never prayed to the Divines before. Even when my wife … even when you took my wife, I accepted it as fate. But At'avar, how can I accept that?"
- "If anyone deserves your mercy, it is At'avar. Please, Stendarr, free him from this curse. Bring me back my son."
If you advised Sud-Hareem to mercy kill At'avar:
- Guardian Sud-Hareem: "Farewell, my son. Tell your mother I'm sorry."
