Detailed WalkthroughEdit
Before embarking on this quest, it is recommended that you have a weapon that does shock damage, armor that has shock resistance, and potions of resist shock. These are vital for dealing with the Undead Dragon.
As you start, you will have to cross a wooden bridge where you will encounter Belegond and Aerwaen, they will tell you that necromancers are indeed at the shrine of Mara. Speaking to Belegond:
- "Halt, traveler. You are entering the territory of the Valenwood, and must submit to our authority. What brings you to our realm?"
-
- I seek the lost shrine of Mara.
- "We know the shrine you speak of, but someone has already taken refuge there."
- Necromancers?
- "Aye. We believe that is the case. We did not question them, only warned them that the shrine is guarded. They earned the right to enter through a trial by combat. It was most impressive. We will not prevent passage there, but know that the shrine's guardians aren't as accommodating."
-
- I seek to thwart the plans of death mages.
- "We know of whom you speak. They came here desiring to use the abandoned shrine of Mara as a refuge. We do not refuse sanctuary, even to necromancers. We simply warned them that they would need to face the shrine's guardians. They did, and therefore they were allowed to stay."
- I need to go there too.
- "We will not prevent passage here, but know that the shrine's guardians aren't as accommodating."
Either choice will lead to:
- Thanks for the heads-up.
- "Was there something else you needed?"
-
- How long have these death mages been here?
- "A few months now. Over the past few months, the numbers have grown."
-
- What are the shrine's guardians?
- "The forest itself decides which guardian each intruder will face. Only the strong of heart will prevail."
-
- Where is your village?
- "It is well-hidden from view. Perhaps one day we will allow you to see it, but not today."
-
- No, I'm fine.
- "May the Green guide your steps."
After speaking to them, continue on and you will have to deal with a forest spider, once defeated, continue on where you will encounter a wisp and a wispmother.
Just after this, you will have to fight a spriggan earth mother that is guarding the Varla Stone of Frost, once you collect it, retrace your steps and continue down the other path.
Down this other path there are three forest trolls in a clearing, once they are dealt with, you will then have to fight a giant forest spider and a forest spider. Just after these spiders are a pair of skeleton knights and the undead Dragon, as stated before, shock attacks to drain the dragon's magicka are vital so that it cannot bombard you with shouts, drink a shock resistance potion as well to lessen the shock damage the Dragon does.
