Blades:The Long Shadow of the Past

Quick Walkthrough
#Talk to Martius Silius.
Detailed Walkthrough
This quest is rather straight forward, after you discuss how you found the murderer with Noura she will tell you that the next event will be in the Imperial Arena. You will then head off to meet up with Martius Silius, where he will say you have talent but that you should stop sticking your nose in places it doesn't belong, you will then have to confront him and tell him that you found the murderer in Blackridge and have killed them. He will then tell you that you can both settle this whole affair in the arena in front of the Empire.

After this discussion, the quest will end and you can then go and speak to Noura for the next tournament quest.
Online:Crafting Motif 84: Blackreach Vanguard Bows

The few brave enough to venture to Blackreach found themselves in need of specialized protection early on. While this place remains unpredictable, it has a wealth of resources that are easily harvested and can be turned against it. Much of the process is still trial and error, but it's been refined to a point where I believe it's pertinent to take record of. I imagine the longer people exist in Blackreach, the more nuanced these practices will become.

BOWS

Blackreach provides unique opportunities for improving bows' heft and accuracy. Sharp chitin plates adorn the upper and lower limbs as well as the arrow tips. This sharp, near indestructible material provides stability to the weapon while lessening the overall weight of it.

CHESTS

Chaurus chitin features heavily in most of the chest pieces of the Blackreach Vanguard. Adult Chaurus are not easy prey, but their natural armor is an incredibly valuable resource. A full piece would be difficult to maneuver in, so we opt for covering the heart.

DAGGER

Most of the time, you won't notice something sneaking up on you until it's too late. In that case, there's little time to draw a larger weapon, so a dagger is a versatile, efficient thing to have on hand. Blackreach-mined metal will bite through anything, whether it's armor or chaurus shells.

When first spoken to:
:''"Oh, it's you. I wondered when we'd finally meet. The new rising star of the Arena... I've seen you fight, you know. Not just against Tetius, either. You have obvious talent. Too bad you keep wasting time putting your nose where it doesn't belong. So, what did you end up finding in Blackridge? A murderer, I hope?"
:More than one, it seems.
:"...Where are they now? The person who killed Volusianus and Metundus, I mean."
:Boregis, the trainee. He's still there. Dead.
:"I suppose I should thank you for killing him."
:Is it true? Did you kill those villagers?
:"Yes, it's true... We killed all of them. Well, almost all of them as it turned out. We were wounded, dying of hunger and thirst, and those ungrateful peons closed their doors to us. I had to think of my men first. I would do the same thing today. Does that bother you, Warrior?"

::Yes.
::"If you don't like it, we can always settle this in Arena. You and me, in front of the whole Empire. All you have to do is beat all the others. Should be doable for a hero like you, right? Good luck, Warrior..."

::You won't get away with this.
::"I already have. No one remembers what happened. No one cares. Not anymore. If you don't like it, we can always settle this in Arena. You and me, in front of the whole Empire. All you have to do is beat all the others. Should be doable for a hero like you, right?
::I accept.

GLOVES

Though Blackreach is mild in temperature, our gloves cover the whole hand and go up to the elbow. With the amount of strange flora and fauna here, touching anything you're unfamiliar with is just asking for trouble. Our gloves are made with thin Vale deer leather to keep them flexible and allow us to use weaponry while still protecting ourselves from the elements.

I imagine the longer people exist in Blackreach, the more nuanced these practices will become.

HELMET

Most of us aren't headbutting our foes down here, but a sturdy piece of Chaurus chitin on the front of our helmets offers a substantial amount of protection in case anyone gets any ideas. We keep the face open to get as much opportunity to see what's ahead of us as possible.

LEGS

Vale deer are abundant, despite being easy prey for the local fauna. Their numbers dwindle by the day, unfortunately, but for now there are enough to provide us with material. Many of the greaves worn by the Blackreach Vanguard are made from their hides. The leather makes for heavy, tough protection that tends to be flexible enough for quick movement and traversing the uneven terrain.

I imagine the longer people exist in Blackreach, the more nuanced these practices will become.

MACES

The best defense against some of these crawlies is a big hunk of metal to the face! We take a lot of inspiration from Nord maces that were brought down with us from the surface for the actual head of the weapon itself. We use our own special flair when it comes to the decorations along the metal, and the top of the shaft is adorned with thick sheets of Chaurus chitin.

I imagine the longer people exist in Blackreach, the more nuanced these practices will become.

SHIELD

Our shields aren't much different than a Skyrim guard's. The wood gets brought down from the surface, but the metal and reinforcements are made from resources exclusively gathered from Blackreach. Ridges made from the backs of Chaurus protrude from the face of the shield to provide additional strength.

SHOULDER

We make good use of Chaurus in Blackreach. Especially when it comes to the shoulders of our armor. Depending on the kind of fighter, we vary the type of chitin used. Those who may be more directly in the fray have more pointed pieces that make it easier to deflect attacks. Others are molded flatter to provide maximum protection.

STAVES

A fierce barb of metal tops each Blackreach Vanguard's staff. It's fused together with a single plate of Chaurus chitin to reinforce the apex of the weapon. The chitin is often carved with runes and into a three-pointed shape pressed flush against the metal. Leather wraps the staff, and each end is secured with a decorative sheaf of metal.

SWORDS

The metal mined from Blackreach tends to be incredibly sturdy even when thinned. This allows the blade to be worked until it's razor sharp without sacrificing the integrity. These are lightweight weapons, making it easier for the wielder to move about. The leather from the hilt comes from Vale deer and the guard is made from a metal foundation with an adult Chaurus chitin finish.

Online:Crafting Motif 96: Arkthzand Armory Axes

No other people have yet matched the alloys and techniques the Dwarves employed to fashion their weapons and armor. Alas, many of the Dwarven secrets of metal-working vanished from Tamriel centuries ago. Likewise, some artifacts of Arkthzand providence also feature magical crystals—perhaps the aetherium mentioned in various mythic histories—whose purpose and powers are understood by no other peoples. Yet with a careful study of the pieces intrepid adventurers have recovered from the depths of the Dwarven ruins sleeping beneath the Reach, we can draw valuable insights into the designs favored in the legendary stronghold of Arkthzand.

AXES

Dwarven axes are double-bitted and made with durable metal hafts. They are significantly heavier than similar weapons created by other peoples, but well-balanced and extremely sturdy. Only the heaviest plate armor can withstand the bite of an Arkthzand axe.

Skyrim:Aldepius

Aldepius is an Imperial soldier found at Dragon Bridge. His status as a new recruit was questioned by a guard stationed with Aldepius, who questioned his older age and curiosity relating to who the bandit informant was. Upon finding out that no one with the name Aldepius was listed on the garrison roster, the guard wrote about his intent to confront Aldepius at Dragon Bridge, subsequently getting murdered by him.

After discovering the murdered guard, the Dragonborn can find a note by Aldepius confessing to the murder and revealing his true identity as Peladius, a bandit whose group was betrayed, leading to him joining the guard to find out who was responsible. Stating that there was no honor in what he has done, he now seeks an honorable death from the Dragonborn.

As Aldepius, he wears a set of Solitude guard armor, as well as a pair of Imperial bracers and boots. Once the Dragonborn encounters him as Peladius, he wears a full set of steel soldier armor and wields a long bow and Steel Sword of Embers. He also carries 30 steel arrows and a potion of plentiful healing.
 
 Aldepius's choice of armor depends on whether or not the Imperial Legion or the Stormcloaks are in charge of Haafingar.

Lore:Fenrik's Journal

once told me I was the strongest warrior in all of  . But that is a lie.

A strong man would have ended his life long ago. He would have delivered  's justice upon his soul. I am weak man, and so, I live.

The   teaches us that  s are an abomination, to be destroyed without mercy. But in my cowardice I began to entertain the blasphemous, that vampirism had a cure. 

Never has the subject been broached by the Keepers. After all, the very idea that these creatures were capable of salvation would threaten the principles of the order. So to learn more, I sought the aid of the very monster I have sworn to oppose. 

 's price was steep. I was to gather thralls and build an altar deep in the mines of  , for purposes that would only become clearer as the nights went on. To that shrine I was to sacrifice the lives of nine of my brothers and sisters, one for each divine. 

At times my resolve has wavered, but the Prince has offered proof in the form of Galur Rithari. His excerpts prove that a cure exists, through a dream of being "sliced by thousands of tiny knives from my bowels inside out." As the town speaks of nightmares and the presence of  , I now see why Dawnstar was chosen for this unholy vigil.

With only three sacrifices left, the ritual is almost complete. No doubt Azarain will see this as treachery, which is why I cannot bring myself to sacrifice him. But with every Vigil that dies at our hand, it only calcifies my resolve. The weakness of my mind does not betray the strength of my will.

For all my cowardice, I am worth the souls of a dozen men. If I rejoin the Vigil, more lives will be saved in the end. 

Perhaps when the accounting is done, Stendarr will show me mercy.
