Mephala (Quest)

Mephala is a quest in . In order to get Mephala to speak with the Hero, an offering of nightshade must be given between midnight and dawn after reaching level 15.
==Walkthrough==
===Mephala's Shrine===
Obtain a sample of Nightshade and then go to Mephala's Shrine which is northeast of the Imperial City Prison, past the Roxey Inn.
Activate the shrine between 00:00 AM and 06:00 AM and Mephala will speak. She tells the Hero of Bleaker's Way, a quiet town with its Dunmer and Nord villagers living together peacefully. Mephala wishes that changed. She wants the Hero to murder the heads of both families and leave evidence that implicates the other.
===Bleaker's Way===
Head to the village, it is located not far to the northwest of the shrine. Ask any villager about Bleaker's Way and the identity of the two leaders are revealed; Nivan Dalvilu and Hrol Ulfgar. Next, gather the evidence to implicate the other family in each murder. Locate Nivan Dalvilu's house, sneak in and look for the Dalvilu Ceremonial Dagger. It is on a small table to the right-hand side as they enter the house.
From Hrol Ulfgar's house, collect the Ulfgar Family Ring. It is on a table, near the stairs on the second floor, lying next to a book. When the evidence has been collected, find and kill Hrol and plant the Dalvilu Ceremonial Dagger on his body.
Then go and kill Nivan Dalvilu and plant the Ulfgar Family Ring on his corpse.
Alternatively, one may kill one leader, find the evidence object in their house, go kill the other leader, plant the evidence object and find the other evidence object and finally return to the first house and place the other object on the corpse previously killed.
Once they have implicated both families, go outside and inform any villager that they have seen the family heads attack each other. Each family attacks the other, and the quaint little village turns into a battleground.
At this point, the Hero can help their favorite family to victory, just stand and watch the battle or return to Mephala's Shrine.
"Well done, little webspinner. Is there a prettier sight than friends at war? Take pleasure in the strife you have caused, mortal"
Return to Mephala and she will be pleased by the outcome and will reward the Hero with the Ebony Blade.

10 	Mephala's followers have told me that, in order to summon the Daedra, I must first leave an offering of nightshade at her statue between midnight and dawn. [You must be level 15 to begin this quest.]
*Quest accepted
20 	Mephala has told me about the settlement of Bleaker's Way. She would like me to kill the leaders of the two families, and leave evidence that the murders were done by the other family. I am to allow no one to see me commit the crimes.
30 	I have learned Nivan Dalvilu is the head of the Dalvilu family, and Hrol Ulfgar the leader of the Nordic clan.
40 	I have found a Dalvilu ceremonial dagger. This might be useful to leave as evidence.
50 	I have found the Ulfgar family ring. This might be useful to leave as evidence.

80 	I've placed evidence on both bodies of the family leaders. Now I must tell someone I saw them attack each other.
85 	I reported the 'attacks' on the family leaders. Soon the families will be at each other's throats. Now I must return to the shrine of Mephala.

==Trivia==
*Killing both Hrol and Nivan counts towards the murder of an innocent requirement for joining the Dark Brotherhood.
*Typically, the Dalvilu family wins the battle and the Ulfgar family is obliterated.
*Mephala will accept stolen Nightshade.
==Bugs==
*If everyone dies, it may not be possible to complete the quest. This can be avoided by going to see Mephala for the reward and then returning to slaughter everyone who is left.
*If one enters Bleaker's Way before taking this quest one may accidentally cause this quest to fail prematurely. If so, Mephala will refuse to speak with the Hero at all.
