Detailed WalkthroughEdit

DutiesEdit

Skink-in-Tree's-Shade in the Wolverine Hall Mage's Guild asks you to arrange a meeting with a wise woman of one of the four Ashlander tribes: Urshilaku, Zainab, Erabenimsun, or the Ahemmusa. Skink doubts that the Erabenimsun will agree and suggests to start with the Ahemmusa. For the record, none of the other Ashlander Wise Women will agree to meet with him (and the Wise Women of outcast Ashlander tribes don't get arrange a meeting as a conversation topic).

At the Ahemmusa CampEdit

If you've gotten far in the Main Quest, you should know the location to all four camps (and they will be marked on your map). The Ahemmusa Camp is on the far northeast corner of the island, north of Tel Vos (northwest of Tel Mora). When you talk to the Wise Woman of the camp, Sinnammu Mirpal, she refuses to meet with Skink, but suggests her apprentice, Minabibi Assardarainat. She is in the Favel Ancestral Tomb, west of the camp, past the Daedric ruins.

Arranging the MeetingEdit

When you find Minabibi Assardarainat just inside the tomb, she agrees to meet with Skink but you must first kill the spirit of the tomb for her, the spirit of Kanit Ashurnisammis. You can trap the 280 point grand soul of Kanit with no penalty, so make sure to bring a grand soul gem! Once you get rid of the spirit, Minabibi tells you to return to Sinnammu to get permission for her to meet with Skink. Do so, noting that no matter what you say to Sinnammu, she will let Minabibi go. If you take credit for calming the spirit, her Disposition will increase by 20 points; lying and telling her that Minabibi was responsible will get you a ten point disposition penalty instead. When you return to the guild hall, Minabibi is already there waiting for you. Talk to Skink to finish the quest and receive the usual increase in Disposition, as well as +2 Reputation. Speak with Minabibi afterwards to receive an Ancestor's Ring.

BugsEdit

  • The ghost of Kanit Ashurnisammis may become stuck behind the altar just below the steps in the center of the room or disappear from the room completely.
  • After Sinnammu names you Nerevarine during the Ahemmusa Nerevarine quest, she is supposed to return to her yurt. In some cases, she may disappear entirely instead, preventing you from completing this quest.
    • As with many other instances of disappearing characters, the console command ra (or ResetActors) will correct this.

NotesEdit

  • Minabibi and ghost of Kanit are in Favel Ancestral Tomb even before this quest has started.
  • Minabibi moves to Sadrith Mora when Sinnammu sends her to talk to Skink. In Sadrith Mora, if you speak with Minabibi before talking to Skink, she will still talk as though she is still in Favel Ancestral Tomb. Only when you report to Skink will she reward you with an Ancestor's Ring.
    • Also, if you kill Minabibi in Sadrith Mora before reporting to Skink, you can still complete quest without penalties. You can still get the Ancestor's Ring, which Minabibi carries with her.

Quest StagesEdit

Meeting with a Wise Woman (MG_WiseWoman)
Index Finishes Quest Journal Entry
10 Skink would like to arrange a meeting with one of the Wise Women of the Ashlanders. He asked me to negotiate a meeting.
25 Nibani Maesa told me that she would never meet with an Argonian Sorcerer.
26 Wise Woman Manirai told me she is too busy to meet with Skink-in-Tree's-Shade.
27 Sonummu Zabamat told me she would meet with Skink-in-Tree's-Shade if Ashkhan Kaushad allowed it. I must speak with Ashkhan Kaushad.
28 Ashkhan Kaushad told me that he would not allow his Wise Woman to speak with Skink-in-Tree's-Shade.
30 Sinnammu Mirpal said she might consider sending her apprentice, Minabibi, to speak with Skink-in-Tree's-Shade. Unfortunately, the apprentice is currently in the Favel Ancestral Tomb, which is west of the Ahemmusa camp. I should follow the coast west from the camp, past the Daedric ruins until I see a cavern. If I reach the ashlands, I have gone too far.
40 I spoke with Minabi [sic], who agreed to visit Skink-In-Tree's-Shade if I helped her put an Ancestral Ghost to rest. The ghost of Kanit Ashurnisammis is somewhere in this tomb.
70 I put the ghost to rest and Minabi [sic] has promised to speak with Skink-in-Tree's-Shade if Sinnammu agrees. I should speak with Wise Woman Sinnammu to arrange the meeting.
80 Sinnammu agreed to send Minabi [sic] to speak with Skink-in-Tree's-Shade. I should report back to Skink.
100 Finishes quest  Somehow Minabi [sic] arrived at the Mages Guild before me. Skink thanked me for arranging the exchange of knowledge.
110 Minabibi gave me an ancestor's ring.
