Quest Related EventsEdit

Enter the Tal'Deic Crypts and you'll find Saryvn locked inside a cage.

Saryvn: "Hey! Over here! Help me!"

If you delay speaking to him, he will urge you again:

"Get me out of here."

He was captured while going off duty and mentioned that the Maulborn has a book that may be of interest:

"Thank the Three! You don't look like one of these mad Maulborn cultists."

Who are you and how'd you get locked up down here?

"I'm Saryvn, a soldier from the fort. I, er, might have crept down to the river to enjoy a quiet drink away from my superiors.
Don't look at me like that. Anyway, these stupid cultists grabbed me. Next thing I knew, I was locked in here."

I'll get you out of there.

"One of those Maulborn must have the key.
And one more thing—one of them was carrying around a creepy Daedric book when they brought me in. They took it into the lower tunnels. If you get the book, I can use it to explain my absence."

We'll see.

Speaking to him again:

"Come back once you have both the key and the book. I'll be waiting right here."

Return with the items:

"You're back! Did you get the key and the book?"

I found the key and the book.

"That's a relief. Now get me out and give me the book. I need to report in to Sergeant Maril.
Maybe you could put in a good word for me? Tell him how brave I was?"

All right, take the book. I'll see you back at the fort.

"Thanks, friend! I'll figure out a way to reward you back at the fortress."

I'll let you out, but I'm not going to lie for you.

"What? After all we've been through?
Fine, fine. I'll deal with Sergeant Maril myself. If you can't say something helpful, just don't say anything at all."

<Open the cage.>

He will turn invisible and sneak out of the crypts.

Lie for SaryvnEdit

Meet Saryvn at the camp and speak to him before Maril and he'll say:

"Thanks for covering—I mean, thanks for getting me out of that cage so I could wreak havoc on the Maulborn."

After speaking to Maril, he'll whisper:

Saryvn: "Psst! Thanks again, friend!"

Speak to him again and there will be no reward after all, except a bit of mild sarcasm:

"Yeah, thanks. I won't forget your help. Promise."

Tell the truthEdit

Meet Saryvn at the camp and he'll not be pleased with your decision:

"Thanks for getting me out of that cage—but you could have backed me up, you know."

Tell Sergeant Maril the truth and he'll yell:

Saryvn: "Hey! You nix-hound!"

Speaking with him:

"I hope you fall into a pit of guar dung."
