==Dialogue==
===Of Knives and Long Shadows===
After Skaldir is killed:
"I wasn't fast enough …. Damn it all! Did you see what happened here? Was it his shadow?"
:Yes. His shadow came to life and stabbed him. "Just as I feared. I knew looking for this artifact would get us killed. I warned them, warned all of them, but they wouldn't listen! They never listen. I've got to find the others. There's still time to save them. Has to be …."
::What others? What were you looking into? "Something very dangerous, but that can wait. My friends are in danger and don't even see it! Some scryers, huh? Adeber's in Shornhelm and Wenridil is in Marbruk. Neelo's in Stormhold maybe? Yes. He must be there. I just hope we're not too late."
:::I'll warn your friends. "Thanks for the help. Got any questions? Let's just make it quick, all right? My friends can't very well outrun their own shadows.
::::Who are you, exactly? "Bonafryd, of Clan Owlcloak. Skaldir and I came up together in Riften, under Magus Oriela. He was always the sharper blade. Magic came easily for him. Me? Not so much. Got too much frost in my blood. Still, I can hold my own. Just takes me a while."
:::::What brought you here? "Unfortunately, Skaldir's not the only mage who's been killed by his own shadow—he's just the most recent. Other members of our order have been turning up dead all over Tamriel. I hurried here to warn him, but I wasn't fast enough."
::::You mentioned an artifact. What did you and Skaldir discover that was so terrible? "Shor's bones, you really want to know, eh? Fine. My associates and I are all junior scryers in the Order of the Eye. We scour the tombs and ruins of Tamriel, looking for extraplanar threats. Rifts in the veil, Daedric artifacts, that sort of thing."
:::::What exactly did you find? "We've had visions of a Daedric artifact. At least we think it's a Daedric artifact. It's hazy, you know? Obscured by something … like frosted glass. Sorry. Skaldir was always the wordsmith."
::::::And you're sure that Skaldir's death is related to this artifact? "A mage can't afford to be sure of anything. But I'd bet my family's meadery on it. Daedric artifacts grant untold power to those that carry them, but always at a cost. The Mages Guild can't let even one of these things fall into the wrong hands."
::::Who are the other people you mentioned? "Other junior scryers in the Order of the Eye. It was just Skaldir and me at first, but others caught on eventually. We started writing each other once we realized we'd all stumbled upon the same artifact. Thought we could find it all on our own …."
:::::Why can't you warn the others yourself? "You think I haven't tried? I sent projections but … this doesn't come easily for me. Magic, I mean. Anyway, I have to warn High King Jorunn first. I heard that his rune-galdr's been looking into the artifact as well. Please, just find my friends."
By Lilatha's boat:
"Are you really going to climb aboard this death trap? Just hold a moment and think it through."
:Bonafryd? How did you find me? "Would you believe pluck and intuition? Yeah, didn't think so. I may look the part, but I'm no bloodhound. Truth is, I slipped a spooring coin into your pocket before you left Mournhold."
::A spooring what? Explain yourself. "A spooring coin. It's an enchanted drake—looks mundane, but it bears a charm that we can track. You don't approve? Look, we can argue about that later. For now, I can't let you get on this boat alone. It's too dangerous. Let me go with you!"
:::You're right. Let's finish this investigation together. "Smart. Two heads are better than one—especially when one of those heads is as hard as mine. Let's hop to it, eh? It's about time we got some answers."
::::Let's go.
:::I don't think so. The person I'm meeting wants me to come alone. 
If the Vestige talks to her again after agreeing to take her along:
"We should get going. Kyne knows how long I've got before my shadow comes calling for blood."

If the Vestige agreed to take her along:
Bonafryd: "I knew you were stubborn, but that won't save you from me! You'll die just like the rest!"
Lilatha: "No! I will not perish here!"
Bonafryd: "You underestimated me, just like the rest! Now, this Psijic bitch is mine! Poor, witless Bonafryd! That's what they called me! Well, who's laughing now, huh?"
