what wealth is only obtainable in multiple lifetimes?

Maybe the reward for the Daedric quest where you have to go and get that good-guy to kill you?...

hhmmm... interesting interpretation, but you don't actually die there, when your hp goes below 20, he intervenes on your behalf and pulls you out.

Ha, didn't know that.

No idea then.

That makes it 3 scripted deaths in OB... sorry, should have done my research first.

They are actually 4...getting kicked outin the mages guild in the initially inaccesible zone of the Arcane University eternally traps you. (at least in my oblivion, maybe a bug)

weka, I knew because I looked it up, and I looked it up because I noticed that everytime I did that quest, I lost my body, birthsign, and race. if you have the difficulty above normal and DO die, that's what happens. not fun, I can tell you.

I've never actually done that quest, it's more than just abit on the evil side for my liking...

this from someone who complained about the DB losing the fight....

Me? What? When??!

I'm confused!

nicholasenj · Post by **nicholasenj** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 1:46 am

was it not you? oh, well.

what was the question again?

Jeff · Post by **Jeff** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 2:15 am

It is your turn, you ask one.

nicholasenj · Post by **nicholasenj** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 2:24 am

ok, new question (ok, weka, your right, it wasn't you. sorry

)

there are 6 of these in Cyrodil, 4 in their natural state, one underground and one wrecked. two are inhabited by undead. one is involved in a dark brotherhood quest, two are used in a plug-in, and the other three are involved in miscellanious quests.

edit: fixed a grammar mistake that changed the meaning of the riddle.

Aylied Cities?

nicholasenj · Post by **nicholasenj** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 3:03 am

no, if I gave any more clues it would give it away. I'll think of one.

Ships (pirate ships)

nicholasenj · Post by **nicholasenj** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 3:05 am

binjo. jeff's turn.

I will be at th Priory,
So that you may hear me speak.
You must travel along the Gold Coast,
That overlooks the Abecean Sea.
That your foe for which you abhor,
you must deteat forever more.
But only with that,
Of which I bespeak?

The Prophet?

Jeff · Post by **Jeff** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 7:20 pm

The first 6 lines are the clue.

The last two lines (sentance), is the question.

nuhmbuh 1 · Post by **nuhmbuh 1** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 7:23 pm

(Alright...time for another wild stab)
Umaril??

According to dictionary.com, bespeak can mean to ask for/reserve in advance, to speak, to show/indicate, or to foretell. Which did you mean? I can think of different answers (all wrong, I'm sure) depending on what you meant.

Yeah I was wondering that myself...but I wasn't that intuitive lol

weka · Post by **weka** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 8:03 pm

This would be why it's called a "riddle"!!

Sir Amiel, Cuirass of the Crusader??

nicholasenj · Post by **nicholasenj** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 8:23 pm

the prophet: the blessing of Talos, whatever it happens to be called.

Jeff · Post by **Jeff** » Sat Nov 24, 2007 9:00 pm

Nicholasenj is correct.

The first two lines indiacate the Priory of the Nine, the Prophet, and his speach. The next to lines indicates Garlas Malatar. The next two indicates Umaril, and to beat him the second time, forever being the key.
The next two lines asks for what you need to beat him, forever more, the Blessing of Talos.

I did check the dictaionary before I used beseach, and almost didn't use it, but wanted to sound cryptic, sorry if it confused, that was not my intent.

Your turn Nicholasenj.
