==Walkthrough==
===Mages Guild===
Valaste asks the Vestige to go to the Ayleid Ruin nearby and retrieve a few tomes. Once the tomes have been taken, Arch-Mage Shalidor appears and speaks to them. When the Vestige returns to the Mages Guild and informs Valaste about the sighting, she is doubtful at first and then notices that the spell tome has blank pages. According to Shalidor, the words will appear with the help of fire. Using the Arcane Brazier reveals a text not readable for the Vestige but Valaste knows that one part is an attunement spell they can use to summon the Arch-Mage. But they will need some ritual orbs as well.
Valaste helps to summon Shalidor to the center of the room and he immediately speaks to the Vestige. They will be the one to help him complete his final task, a sanctuary for all the mages of Tamriel.
Shalidor informs them that the haven Eyevea he had created for all mages had been stolen by the Daedric Prince Sheogorath. He asks the Vestige to retrieve four tomes that will help him recreate Eyevea. He then opens a portal to Cheesemonger's Hollow.
===Cheesemonger's Hollow===
Inside is a man named Haskill. After the Vestige informs him what they are here for, Haskill demands that they close a portal first, to earn the spell tomes, that different Daedra are pouring out of. When the portal is closed, Haskill opens the door to the Hollow. Here they need to make their way on the path, past Scamps, Golden Saints and Dark Seducers and then defeat the boss Clannfear Gutsripper.
After the first tome is taken, however, the rest disappear and Sheogorath appears instead. Sheogorath promises to give the Vestige the remaining tomes if they complete various tasks for him. Sheogorath then summons Shalidor and informs him about the deal. To Shalidor's ire, Sheogorath adds that Shalidor himself won't be able to read the tomes himself.
After Sheogorath disappears, Shalidor curses the Mad God and says without his help it will take longer for Valaste to translate the tomes. He then sends the Vestige back to the Mages Guild hall to inform Valaste. Once informed, Valaste instructs the Vestige to check in from time to time and that she will send word when she's finished with the translation. The Vestige gives the tome to Valaste and is rewarded for their efforts.
==Reward==
*Amulet of Eyevea
*146–604 
==Trivia==
*The Dremora in Cheesemonger's Hollow were replaced by Golden Saints and Dark Seducers in later patches of the game.
