Falicia

Falicia is a Bosmer in . She runs the shop at the Mages Guild.
==History==
Falicia is an apprentice mage. She studied with archmage Voa before his death and hopes to soon advance to an expert mage.
Falicia gives Cyrus information about Iszara and the soul gem, telling him how she brought it to the Mage's Guild hoping a high ranking member would know how to use it to restore Prince A'Tor. A Khajiit acolyte named Joto offered his assistance in her research, but was arrested by the governor's henchman Dram for treason. Just as she's relayed this information however, the Archmage Jaganvir overhears and, in attempt to make sure Cyrus never speaks of this matter for fear of having the Guild shut down, transforms him into a gremlin. 
When he returns later, she'll offer him a health potion for his trouble.
==Stock==
Falicia sells the following for 25 gold each:
*Potion of Ironskin
*Health Potion
*Strength Potion
==Dialogue==
Hello. "Hello, stranger. Welcome to the Mage's Guild of Stros M'kai, fully chartered since 638 CE. I'm the resident shopkeeper hereabouts. Feel free to look around, but remember everything is guild property. If there is anything you'd like to buy, just let me know."
:(Iszara) I'm looking for a young woman named Iszara. "The name is not familiar, sir; might she have been a member of the guild?"
::(No) It's unlikely, but she may have been a customer here at your shop. "I can't recall anybody by that name, but so many people come here from day to day it's no surprise. And I would be the only one who works the shop since my apprenticeship, for some cruel reason, seems relegated to retail."
::(I'm not sure) I doubt it, but she may have been. "My apprenticeship here has lasted several years, and I haven't met any member named Iszara yet. But, who knows, many members of the upper cabal are of the secretive sort."
:::(Apprenticeship) How long do you have to be an apprentice, ms...? "Falicia. And it's been way too long. I think the Guild has a prejudice against elves based on the fact that we live so long -- -- and have the potential of reaching heights no human wizard could ever dream for, unless he goes the rotting way, which so many do, but I guess I'm just being bitter. One day I'll make Archmage, and maybe none too soon considering there's an opening now."
::::(Archmage) Who is the Archmage? "Human named Jaganvir, a real hardcase. Doesn't really have enough secrets to be Archmage, but the last one was kileld at the Battle of Stros M'kai so there was a vacuum to fill."
:::::(Last One) What happened to the last Archmage? "Voa's Redguard blood got the better of him. He died in the Battle of Stros M'kai fighting alongside the Prince."
:::::(Battle of Stros M'kai) The Mage's Guild helped the Crowns in the battle? "Not the Mage's Guild, just former Archmage Voa. He was a nationalist as well as a Guildmaster, and couldn't help himself. Got killed for mundane politics."
::::(Jaganvir) Do you think Jaganvir knows anything about Iszara? "Wouldn't tell you if he did. He doesn't talk to mundanes, and he's too busy studying for the Battlespire to be seen lately."
::::(Battlespire) What's the Battlespire? "A war college set up by the Empire to test its battlemages; an elite Mage's Guild, really. Archmage Jaganvir's got his sights on the Battlespire recently, though why anybody would want to hang out with those losers is beyond me."
:::(Upper Cabal) Maybe I could speak to somebody in the Upper Cabal... "Sure. You'll be right after me, as soon as you get ten years of apprenticeship under your belt and can cast an 'Alter Reality' spell. The new Archmage, Jaganvir, he doesn't talk to nobody, and would make everybody else in the Guild do likewise, except for me, since I run the shop."
:(Restless League) Do you know anything about the Restless League? "I'm afraid not. The Mage's Guild tries to stay out of the lesser politics."
:(Stros M'kai) What kind of town is Stros M'kai? "I'm too busy studying to pay it much mind. Plus, with the Empire here, the streets feel kind of dangerous."
::So you never leave the guild? "If you want to know the truth, wide open spaces kind of make me nervous. Many wood-elves are like that, you know."
::They miss the canopy of the Valenwood trees.... "Our second sky, the middle green. Let's just say I don't wander around in Stros M'kai enough to know that much about it."
:::(Empire) Has the Empire interfered with the Mage's Guild yet? "Of that I am not at liberty to say. Let's just say Archmage Jaganvir is trying to stay on their good side. He's got his greedy eyes on the Battlespire."
:(Mage's Guild) How old is the Mage's Guild? "This one, or the institution itself? This one is fairly new, two hundreds years and a fourth more. Modern magicks came late to Hammerfell."
::Redguards have strong traditions. "But even they took finally to the notion of a more controlled and conscious auspice for magic. The Mage's Guild was a reaction to the mass hedgery of old, when magic was wild and unbalanced."
::How very modern for an elf. "When you're a student you embrace the institutional line-- if you want to graduate."
:(Flask of Lillandril) I've heard that an ancient artifact, the Flask of Lillandril, was lost on this island long ago. You know the piece I'm talking about. "You're not the first to ask. Everybody seems to think the Mage's Guild has access to all the land's magic. Sorry to say the flask has not turned up for centuries. Lost on this island long ago by the elven founders of the flask, who were shipwrecked here. They fled Summerset Isle with the flask, hoping to buy sanctuary from the clan Direnni in High Rock, but the seas only brought them this far. Some say there's a map to it."
::(Flask Map) What about this map to the flask? "Well, nobody has seen it. The stories say it was torn into four pieces. One of the pieces was even said to have been inscribed on the bottom of a silver box shaped like a ship."
:(Buy items) What's for sale? "Magical potions of all sorts."
::What potions do you have? "Healing potions, Strength potions, and potions of Ironskin."
:::(Healing Potion) I'll take a healing potion. "Okay, that'll be 25 gold."
:::(Strength Potion) How about a strength potion. "Right here. 25 gold pieces."
:::(Ironskin Potion) I'm going to need a potion of ironskin. "Sure. 25 gold please."
:::: "Doesn't look like you have the gold. Perhaps later."
::::
::::(No) Not right now.
: "I'm... not supposed to talk about that."
:(Bye) Thanks for your help. "The name's Falicia. I'll be here."
::Thanks, Falicia. "Thanks yourself."
After finding Archmage Voa's ring:
Hello, Falicia. "Hello again."
:(Voa's Ring) Do you know anything about Archmage Voa's ring? "I'm afraid not."
:(Jaganvir and Voa's Ring) Do you think Jaganvir knows anything about Voa's ring? "Wouldn't tell you if he did. He doesn't talk to mundanes."
:(Bye) Goodbye. "Come back again."
After having found the Restless League hideout:
Hello, Falicia. "Hello again."
:(Soulgem) What do you know about soulgems, Falicia? "Mmm, er, nothing... why do you ask?"
::(I think you know) Please, Falicia, I think you know why I'm asking. Iszara disappeared shortly after stealing the soulgem from the Restless League. I think she may have come here with it. "She...did. I'll tell you about it. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, but Archmage Jaganvir is worried that the Empire will shut the Guild down if we are caught helping the Crowns."
::(You're lying) Don't lie to me, girl! Iszara stole a soulgem from the Restless League and I think she came here with it! If you don't tell me -- "Keep it down, will you? I'll tell you what I know.... I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, but Archmage Jaganvir is worried that the Empire will shut the Guild down if we are caught helping the Crowns."
:::I'm not a Crown. Iszara is my sister. "Fine. Your sister came here with the soulgem. She was frantic and insistent on speaking to one of the upper cabal. She was worried about being followed and needed to restore Prince A'Tor as soon as possible."
:::She was going to bring back the Prince? "What do you think the soulgem was for in the first place, a keepsake of her lost love? Look, Archmage Voa put A'Tor's soul into the gem to save him from the Empire, see? Somehow the Restless League got their hands on it and were using it to rally supporters to win the kingdom back. Anyway, Iszara got tired of waiting around for this attack to happen so she swiped the gem and came here to get things done."
:::But...? "But since the Archmage was killed in the battle, there was no one left with enough power to restore the Prince. Iszara was terrified. Then one of our members, an Acolyte named Joto, decided he would try to help her find another way to restore the Prince."
:::Did it work? "Yeah, Prince A'Tor's right behind you right now making funny faces. No, it didn't work. Iszara was here night and day doing research with Joto, pouring over scrolls and spellbooks to find some clue that would help them. But the Empire must have caught on. A Dark Elf came to talk to Jaganvir one day and the next thing you know Joto is thrown into the city jail for treason against the Empire."
:::What happened to Iszara? "I don't know if she got away or she was caught along with Joto or what. He's the only one who could tell you that and he's rotting away in a cell."
:::Not for long. "You're crazy if you think you're going to break into the city jail! The Empire has--"
:::"(Jaganvir) Silence!" "Archmage Jaganvir! I was only--"
:::"(Jaganvir) Would you have the Empire put the whole of the Guild in chains? Speaking of this is strictly forbidden!" Back off, sparkly, I was just leaving. I have everything I wanted to know.
:::"(Jaganvir) You're not leaving until I'm sure you'll never speak a word of what you've learned. And I have a perfect... and most satisfying... means of ensuring your discretion."
:(Bye) Goodbye. "Come back again."
After having found Joto:
"You're back! I'm sorry about Jaganvir. He's crazy. Take a potion for your trouble."
:(Joto) I tried to free Joto but he didn't make it. "I guess I'm sorry for that, too. I hope he could help you find your sister."
:(Bye) Goodbye. "Come back again."
