Dialogue
After taking the dreamwalk potion, you will wake up in the form of Verandis. You find yourself in a bedroom with the dying Baroness lying on the bed while her husband and daughter stand at her bedside.
:Lleraya Montclair: "Mother... please. You have to take the medicine. Reezal-Jul can help you!"
:Baroness Leila Montclair: ''"Oh, sweet daughter. I can't go on like this. I don't want to spend my final days as an experiment. Instead, let me spend them with the ones I love."
The Count comments as he watches this scene play out,
:Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Even in retrospect, reliving this is difficult. Her pain, her suffering. She had so much courage."

You can speak with her, the conversation will differ depending on what you said to Baron Montclair in response to the possibility of turning her into a vampire.
:"My dear friend, Verandis. I'm glad you're here. You've always been so good to our family. I... I never really thanked you for that."


In the next memory, the Baroness seems to be in better health:
:Baron Wylon Montclair: "Three cheers for Verandis! He gave me the means to save my beautiful wife!"
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "Yes, to our dear friend, Verandis! How can we ever repay him?"

:Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "We were so happy at this moment. We were all together, friends and family, enjoying each other's company. For the final time ...."
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "Verandis, may I speak to you for a moment? Alone."''

If you speak to the Baroness before speaking to Verandis, she'll say:
:''"Don't mind Wylon. He's just angry that the shard's effects faded away. He knows you didn't mean for this to happen to me, Verandis."''

After speaking to Verandis, she'll plead:
:''"Verandis, you mustn't say anything. Please! I'm sure this will … this will pass. I just need the stone. Another treatment and I'll be fine."
:Leila, you aren't well.
:"Just a little dizziness … a little discomfort. It must be all this activity lately. Verandis, I don't think the stone shard is powerful enough. It helps, but it doesn't last. And now I feel … empty. I can't explain it."
:We need to tell Wylon about this.
:"No! You leave him be. He's happy now. I can't stand to see him worried. Sitting beside my bed … helpless … consumed with grief. Not again. The stone shard. It's obviously a part of something larger. Could that be the cure we're looking for?"
:I don't know. Perhaps there's more information in the Ayleid tomes Reezal-Jul has been researching.
:"Talk to the Argonian. See what he's found out. We need to find the larger relic … or at least another shard of stone. I hate to ask, but I need you to do this one last favor. For Wylon. For me."
:Of course, Leila. I'll talk to Reezal-Jul and see what he thinks.
:"I knew I could count on you, dear friend. Now, I need to compose myself and return to the party. But I think I'll go to sleep early this evening. I'm sure I just need a little more rest."

During the third memory, the group is climbing the Doomcrag.
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "We shouldn't have left the guards behind, Weylon. Who knows what else we're going to run into?"
:Lleraya Montclair: "There was no choice, Mother. You're getting worse and we can't wait for them."
:Gwendis: "I'll stay here and protect the way out. Keep watch in case the guards catch up with us. The rest of you need to keep moving."
:Baron Wylon Montclair: "Thank you, Gwendis. At least you retain a sense of honor."
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "Wylon, you have to stop blaming Verandis. This wasn't his fault."

The group climbs higher up the Doomcrag:
:Baron Wylon Montclair: "What a magnificent structure! The relic this monolith houses must be powerful indeed!"
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "Wylon, my love, I'm afraid."
:Baron Wylon Montclair: "Hurry, Leila. Trust me. Soon you will be healed and we can put this terrible episode behind us."

When they find the relic, the Baron begins to perform a ritual:
:Baron Wylon Montclair: "Have no fear, my darling Leila. Soon the light will wash away your pain."
:Reezal-Jul: "It's going to work, Baron. The power of this ancient Ayleid remnant... it's almost overwhelming."
:Lleraya: "You're going to be all right, Mother. Just hold on."
:Baron Wylon Montclair: ""The remnant will make you like new, my love! You'll be reborn!
:Lleraya: "Something's... happening. I feel... the power!"
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "Wylon! Something feels... wrong ...."
:Baron Wylon Montclair: "Verandis, we need you! We need your power! Quickly! Touch the relic and help us!"

With Verandis having touched the remnant, the Montclairs are turned into vampires. Leila is in immense pain. 
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "No! What... what have you done? This isn't me! I... I never wanted this!"
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "Please, Verandis. Help me! Make it stop! I... I can't stand the pain."
:Baroness Leila Montclair: "End this, Verandis! End this before I... arrgh!"''
 At this, Leila will be transformed into a bloodfiend and you as Verandis will be forced to kill her.
