To get to the Amulet of Kings , you must first acquire the blessing of Stendarr at the tombs of the Dragonguard , and at the tombs of the Remans . Summary . The Harborage is the same for all alliances . However , the closest city will change based on the chosen faction . Walkthrough . After receiving Varen ' s call , the Vestige is informed that it is finally time to recover the legendary and sacred Amulet of Kings , hidden with the efforts of Sai Sahan in the long forgotten Sancre Tor . Aquilarios explains that the city was built by Queen Alessia , and is located in Colovia , his homeland . Due to the harrowing experiences that aged and diminished him , he is not able to give much information about it . For that , Sai Sahan informs the Vestige that Sancre Tor was a long forgotten city where heroes were buried . The Amulet was protected with Stendarr ' s ward , and only using his ring , acquired in the last encounter with the Companions , they could reach the sacred artifact . After entering the portal opened by Aquilarios , the Vestige , Lyris Titanborn , Abnur Tharn and Sai Sahan venture into Sancre Tor , an ancient forgotten catacomb adorned with several statues and graves of past heroes and emperors . Arriving in the large room , the very first one , the heroes encounter the vile Mannimarco in a large and not proportional projection of himself . The Wormcult leader explains he has always been watching them after they left the Valley of Blades , and only for that they have escaped . Unleashing a powerful spell , Mannimarco subdues Sahan and questions him about the Amulet of Kings just like in those years of torture in Coldharbour . As the Redguard resists , in response to the apparent loyalty of Mannimarco to the Lord of Schemes , Molag Bal , Tharn provokes him to reveal his true colors . After agreeing with Sahan that they should find the Amulet before Mannimarco does , the group heads towards south to the Sancre Tor interior and the Inner Chamber . The inner chamber . Once again as a projection , The Worm King admits he wants the Amulet of Kings to overthrow Molag Bal , by capturing his soul into the Amulet of Kings , and succeed him as the new Lord of Schemes and Brutality , starting a new reign of terror over Tamriel . Surprisingly , the very ward of Stendarr is the veil that impedes Molag Bal from interfering and even knowing what was happening . Here , the heroes face some Worm Cultists and a Bone Colossus , with usual skeletons . After defeating them , they continue to the Inner Chamber , where Sai Sahan asks for a break for him to rest . It ' s optional to talk to Titanborn , but if done so , she will mention not only a sentiment of revenge against Mannimarco but also that she and Sahan are stoical , and never talk about what they really feel , but maybe someday . After talking to Sai Sahan and pushing him forward , the group heads to the Dragonguard Tomb . Enter the Dragonguard Tomb . The main objective of the chamber is to reach the brazier and perform the ritual do Stendarr . To do so , the group must pass a series of gates and defeat several undead warriors , former allies of Sai Sahan reanimated by Mannimarco . Heading in the very direction of the arrow gets the Vestige to the brazier location , where the ritual must be performed . The Reman Vault puzzle . Heading back to the Inner Tomb , now making way to the Reman Vault . There a seemingly tricky puzzle awaits , one that holds the bridge high , and it needs to be put low . Four levers are activated , where one interferes into another . To solve the puzzle , activate the third lever , then the second , and finally the first . After lowering the bridge and lighting the brazier , ghosts of level 40 will appear . Continue to the Vault Antichamber . Heading towards the Vault of Kings , the group faces more of Mannimarco ' s minions . Enter the Vault of Kings . After being informed with Sai Sahan about how to open the doors to the Vault of Kings , the Vestige uses the Ring of Stendarr to open them . Entering the sacred vault , the group is confronted one last time by Mannimarco , now in person . Mannimarco uses quick magical attacks from long range , and despite not being his toughest one , he charges a powerful blow that can repel the Vestige away from him in a long distance . Also , conjures a beacon of light that allows him to teleport and avoid damage , without forgetting his minions . Mannimarco is killed , but his soul counts on the last laugh . Suddenly , a dark anchor appears atop of all present and the voice of Molag Bal condemns Mannimarco ' s plot to betray him . His huge demonic hand grasps into the Worm King and takes him into Oblivion . The Vestige and the group are free to finally take the Amulet of Kings . Talk to Varen Aquilarios . Returning from the portal , the Vestige finish his quest by talking to Aquilarios , who almost pities Mannimarco ' s fate , asks once more for a time of rest , for now they have the sacred amulet and can be more secure . Yet , the Planemeld must be stopped once and for all .
