Silver Staff of Shaming (Quest)

Silver Staff of Shaming is an Imperial Cult quest in . It is one of the shrine sergeant quests given by Kaye.
==Background==
Years ago, an acolyte of the Imperial Cult named Linus Iulus left Ebonheart to find a traitor. He has not been seen since. Lalatia Varian, the oracle of the Imperial Cult on Vvardenfell, has had dreams lately about a Silver Staff of Shaming lying near Mount Kand. As she has given such a staff to Linus Iulus before his departure, she suspects that Linus Iulus' remains can be found there. The shrine sergeant Kaye asks the Nerevarine to find what is left of Linus Iulus and bring back the Silver Staff of Shaming and what else is left of his possessions, in particular his Maran Amulet and Stendarran Belt. As his death is a burden on Lalatia Varian's conscience, it would be good to have this artefacts back at the chapels. Kaye gives the Nerevarine an Detect Enchantment Ring who should help them detect the items.
If asked about this situation by talking about "Silver Staff of Shaming," Lalatia Varian will say:
As I told Kaye, I believe the Silver Staff of Shaming, and the remains of Linus Iulus, will be found in the shadow of Mount Kand. I do not think the time of day is important. I believe the shadow is symbolic, symboling the shadow of death that has fallen over Linus Iulus. I hope you retrieve the staff. And I hope you find other of his personal effects so that we may honor them in token of one who has fallen in our service.
