Mercer Frey

Because:
Spoiler:
He's the thieves guild master, so he would have his hand in the plot to frame Brand-Shei
He failed is duty to the Daedric prince Nocturnal
In Gallus' journal everything is explained, so you have to help Karliah defeat Mercer. While doing so, the chamber with the Falmer statue floods, with risk of drowning

@Lethandhrel One-Eye : Yet another part of the riddle solved. :D
We are getting ever so close... :wink:
All the other guesses are wrong, to some extent or the other. :(
In between the lines there's a lot of obscurity.
I'm not inclined to resign to maturity.
If it's alright, then you're all wrong.
But why bounce around to the same damn song?

The Telvanni it is, indeed! :D
Hidden:
1. Baby born to uncertainunknown parents + frame - Brand-Shei.
2. Conjuration + failure - Brelyna Maryon.
3. Black Book + search for a steward + an experiment that involves health damage in water + more quests- Neloth.
All of them are members of House Telvanni.
Your turn, AddictedtoMorrowind! Image

AHA!!! I'VE FINALLY COMPLETED YOUR RAGE-INDUCING RIDDLE!!! YESSSS

Of course, someone was going to get it sooner or later. I'll pass my turn to Hrolf or Lethandrel, since they got those parts correct.

I can't believe I forgot that Conjuration's symbol was that Oblivion thing, though. I fail.

You certainly did a good job summarizing the correctly guessed lines and revealing the answer. :wink:
Hrolf Alfblod guessed the first line, while Lethandhrel One-Eye guessed the third.

I hope someone with come up with a new riddle soon. :)

Should be easy, at least compared to Norroen's trivia.

A rumor puts you on my path to talk to a worshiper of the wind
Soon, if you accept, you will face a monster’s wrath at a parentless stone
Return, with prize in hand, and to a refuge the celebrant will send
Use nature’s foe, or, if you brought a friend, another path may be shown
Whenever you cross swords with an enemy you must not think of cutting him either strongly or weakly; just think of cutting and killing him. - Miyamoto Musashi

This should be easy:

A Dunmer would punch me in the face
For my pronunciation issues.
I am out to get people
Who choose sacks over cupboards.

Could this refer to the difference in pronunciation between the Man, Mer, and Beast races when shouting Words of Power?

A drunkard?Though I can't think of anyone who would fit the riddle seamlessly.

Sidenote:Lymdrenn Tenvanni [sic] and Thromgar Iron-Head would warrant more then a punch if their speaking skill was on par with their writing :lol:

The issue is not related to the sound of someone's voice, but to orthoepy.
