Mozgosh

Old look

Mozgosh is an ill Orc found in the settlement of Hissmir. She is the daughter of an Orc chieftain, Gordag, and was poisoned during an attempt on his life. The two have traveled from their stronghold in Skyrim to Shadowfen in search of ingredients for an antidote. They have come alone, largely because another clan member, Gloorig, incited their clan to leave Mozgosh to her fate. She has a sister, who remained behind at the stronghold.

Quest-Related EventsEdit

Speaking with her before healing her:

<Mozgosh's breathing is labored. She is not aware of her surroundings.>

During and after Strength of the Father, if you heal her with seriweed:

Mozgosh: "I … what? The pain's gone!"

Speak to her.

"I feel strong again, fully healed.

Where's my father? I must go to him."

He's dead. I found his journal and brought the cure.

"Dead? Then the guides told the truth. Thank you for my strength and my life!

I'll visit Mauloch's fury upon our clan! They'll pay the blood price for abandoning my father and me."

After completing the quest along that branch:

"When I leave this place, I will need all my strength. I thank you for my life."

What will you do now?

"Return to my clan's stronghold. Depose Gloorig and exact the blood price for my father's death!
If they'd marched with him, he'd still be alive! My people would still have a worthy chief!"

Why didn't they march with him?

"Gloorig told them a woman was not worth the effort, no matter her strength.
According to my sister, Gloorig seized power when we left. She sent word he'd even taken my father's wives for his own! Coward. He dared only with my father gone!"

Who are you?

"Mozgosh, daughter of Gordag, whose blood is Mauloch's by honor and strength!
Through our shared blood, his strength is mine."

What brought you to Hissmir?

"An assassin attacked my father. I snapped his neck, but he grazed me with a poisoned dagger.
My father and I came alone to find a cure after the clan refused to march together."

Your father?

"Gordag, chief of the greatest Orc hold in Skyrim! Dead now, but with honor.

Now Gloorig rules the clan, a coward sitting in my father's seat."

Couldn't you challenge him?

"I plan to! Code be damned, I am stronger than that coward! I'll see him pay the blood price, or die while cutting his throat!
If no one else in the hold will challenge him, I must!"

If you heal her with Xthari:

Mozgosh: "What's happened? So weak …."

Speak with her.

"So weak, but still alive. My father. Where is he?"

Dead. I found his journal and brought the cure.

"Dead? I don't … the males of my clan were right. I'm weak, not worth saving. Still, the poison no longer burns in my veins.
Thank you for your efforts. I'll stay here and rest. Perhaps some day I'll be strong enough to leave."

Speaking with her after the quest if you choose this path:

"When I recover completely, I'll leave this place and start over."

What will you do now?

"Rest and gather my strength. When I have recovered, I will strike out on my own.
The lizards here have no backbone. Perhaps the daughter of Gordag can beat one into them!"
