==Walkthrough==
At guild level 5, after completing the Chateau of the Ravenous Rodent, The Vestige and Shalidor travel to Eyevea using the books they have gathered. However, Sheogorath has left portals to Oblivion open throughout the realm, allowing Daedra to roam Eyevea. The doors to the Guild Hall are sealed by magic. Shalidor instructs the Vestige to close the portals while he tries to unseal the doors.
Inside the Guild Hall, Sheogorath instructs the Vestige to fight his chamberlain, Haskill. After the fight, Sheogorath makes an offer to take Valaste back with him to the Shivering Isles and in exchange the Vestige will receive the Folium Discognitum. If not, Sheogorath will cure Valaste of her madness instead but the Vestige will not receive the Folium.
Shalidor warns this is the exact same deal Sheogorath offered him years ago and pleads with the Vestige not to make the same mistake. Valaste is rather eager to go to the Shivering Isles. Ultimately, the decision is up to the Vestige. While the Vestige will receive a skill point at the conclusion of the quest regardless of their decision, the Folium Discognitum, if accepted, will grant the Vestige an additional two skill points.
