Online:Tenarei's Contract

:      

As promised, our agreement in writing. That you do not take me at my word after our long association is a bit insulting, but I am feeling indulgent. You are to bring one   to the syndicate in  , preferably alive. Complete this job and your debt to the syndicate will be cleared. 

This fool Quistley has difficulty remembering his debts, but the Silvelles are a wealthy   family. Maybe they can pay off their son's obligation. If not, debts can be paid off in a number of ways, as you well know. 

Current Whereabouts:

-  Seen leaving the city some weeks ago. Claimed to be going to  .
 
-  May have joined smugglers or bandits operating out of a cave south and east of Leyawiin,   or Caves? (That area is riddled with caves.) 

-  Wears an expensive signet ring, dresses like a useless rich knob, fancies himself a ladies' man, brags a lot. 

Hopefully smugglers haven't killed him before we can collect on his debt.

Meeting her at the entrance of Rockgrove:
:"We do not have many warriors left. Barely enough to hold this section of the city. If the Sul-Xan wanted, they could crush us at any time. It seems they have what they want. I doubt they even consider us a threat."

If you have the quest A Plea from the Flames:
:"Hmm. While I may avert my claws in greetings, I promise they still are sharp. Come, ojel. Speak. How did you arrive here? Especially at such a time as this.
:Malosza sent me to aid your people.
:"So he made it to safety? Such sun-blessed news in a gloomy moment. Though, I expected him to send one of our allies. No matter. You have come and that is what matters. At this point, I should appreciate any help we can get."
:What needs to be done?
:"Our stone-talker, Dust-on-Scales, claims to know who led this attack. If true, he may have an idea of how to reclaim our home from these impure tail-lifters. Speak to him. He is tending to one of our wounded. And … I am grateful for your aid."

Talking to her after stopping before completing the quest:
:"The news that Malosza made it to safety strengthens my spine, ojel. Though I still feel surprised he did not send a more familiar face. Perhaps this is how it should be. A stranger coming from the marsh to preserve our home. Yes, this feels correct."

Once you have completed the quest, you can ask her more questions:
:"When the sun rose, I told my mate that I could taste toxins on the wind. He dismissed my fears. Then, this happens. I wish he were here for me to gloat. Dust-on-Scales knows the xanmeer well. His guidance will be invaluable for your efforts."
:Malosza said you were one of the guards.
::"Guards, warriors, hunters—our tribe sees them as all the same role. But, yes, that is my duty. When I look around, it seems I may be the last one. I know the claws of my root-kin sunk deep into Sul-Xan scales. They fell to keep the tribe alive."
:Tell me more about Rockgrove.
::"Rockgrove? You mean Krona-Konu. I forgot that the dryskin tongue enjoys placing its words where they do not belong. Before this, only the breeze disturbed the grasses. Our tribe watched over the xanmeer and the walls kept us safe."
::You never faced attacks before now?
::"Not of this severity. We really only trained warriors out of tradition. Mostly they would hunt our food. A great sorrow that we have lost them all to the Sul-Xan. Perhaps if you manage to drive out these invaders, we shall know peace again."''

Once Xalvakka is defeated, she'll appear along with Dust-on-Scales on the Xanmeer Pinnacle:

Lore:Ixtaxh Xanmeer

Ixtaxh Xanmeer (formally known as Ixtaxh-Thitithil-Meht, which translates into "Exact-Egg-Cracker" in Jel)  is a sunken xanmeer ruin located on the coast of Murkmire, in the province of Black Marsh. It is a great stepped pyramid,   said to be one of the most extensive stone-built sites in the region.  It is rumored that the ruins contains a plethora of jewelry and treasure, among these items of interest was the Kajin-Jat Crystal, a vakka stone that was used in rituals by the Ancient Argonians.  
 

Further Information
The Ixtaxh Xanmeer's architecture is intricately designed to be convoluted and haunting. For one the ruin's entry hall uses a bijum-style door release, where if you pull on the lever, it collapses the floor and into another room, but pushing on it opens the entrance.  The Ixtaxh Xanmeer has doors and staircases that seemingly go nowhere and stylized Argonian statues that look ghastly. There are also a series of traps, from the nigh bottomless pits to the fire traps, as well as creatures such as  s and  .  The room that contains the Kajin-Jat Crystal is hidden in the furnace room's pit and rigged so that a gigantic   would be released if the crystal was removed. If the creature is defeated, poison gas fills the entire dungeon. 

History
Ixtaxh Xanmeer and many others were built in the Days of Stone Nests, known by historians as pre- . The Ancient Argonians of Ixtaxh utilized the vakka stone known as the Kajin-Jat for rituals, but what those rituals entailed are currently unknown.  Ever since Duskfall took place, the Ixtaxh Xanmeer had fallen into severe disrepair and its exterior was eventually swallowed by the marsh of coastal Murkmire. Explorers have traveled to the xanmeer in the hopes of recovering treasure, ideally the Kajin-Jat Crystal, but have died in their vain attempt. 

Sometime in  , the   disembarked on a quest for the Kajin-Jat Crystal in the Ixtaxh Xanmeer. With their motley crew of explorers from  , the group delved into the dungeon and were separated by the trap in the entry hall. After they reunited, the group navigated through the dungeon until they reached the furnace room and eventually, the Kajin-Jat Vault. Once they acquired the crystal however, each of the dungeon's traps were activated and the group made a narrow escape through the Ixtaxh Egress. The Kajin-Jat Crystal was promptly take to safety in the Cyrodilic Collections headquarters in Lilmoth. 

Over the years, the marsh had slowly consumed the xanmeer and it was completely sunken in water. But by the early  , the Ixtaxh Xanmeer had been excavated by the   that occupied Lilmoth. From the topmost chamber, they pumped out water and laying   to keep it from running back in.

Little mortal,

I am Lyranth, a Dremora outcast who sometimes takes an interest in insignificant things. Perhaps we have met. Perhaps not. I find it hard to tell the difference between individuals where you mortals are concerned.

Regardless, there exists a sect dedicated to advancing the agenda of the Prince of Destruction and Ambition, Mehrunes Dagon. I have decided to look into their activities and how they pertain to the secrets of your Longhouse Emperors, but certain obstacles have been thrown in my path that require a mortal's touch.

The magic I have infused within these words will, as you reach the end of this message, mark a location upon your map. Meet me there now, little mortal. Lyranth commands it. Not that I care, but the fate of your world may depend on what we do next.

Online:Deet-Loh's Notes: Frog Songs

In my efforts to become the greatest vossa-satl musician in all of Tamriel, I need to find the very best frogs. The nisswo told me that the frogs that frolic around the pristine pool located in the very depths of Vunalk's ruins produce the most beautiful frog songs in all of Blackwood. I simply must find these frogs and hear their melodies for myself!

So far I've been able to avoid the various creatures that inhabit these ruins, but I'm surprised I haven't encountered the Nereid yet. I really want to talk to her and ask her permission before I take any of the frogs. If she loves music as much as I, I'm sure she'll be reasonable.
Online:Deet-Loh's Notes: The Frog Witch

I've been sitting here, listening to the beautiful songs of these amazing little frogs. The nisswo was correct. I've never heard anything like it! About halfway through their latest serenade, the Nereid rose up out of the pool. She dotes on the frogs like a mother hen. It's kind of nice to see. She really does seem to love them.

The way she talks to them, the way they respond. She's more than a Nereid. Why, she's some sort of frog witch! I'm certain she'll be open to allowing me to adopt a few of these musical creatures. She has so many. I'm sure she'd be all right letting me have a few for my vossa-satl.

All right, let's go talk to the Nereid!
