Avanzencheal?
Or whatever the name of the dwarven ruins is called, the one where you take the lexicon for deepest-fathoms.

Was Mzinchaleft. :P

orite an explanation.
South and west from the early sun,
Southwest of Dawnstar.
In this range, it isn't the only one.
The mountain range along the north also contains Alftand, and Sightless Pit.
Housed within- A quest's goal,
Contains Grimsever.
Guarded by an enemy still whole.
The centurion.
Once completed, object returned,
A new friend, you will have won.

You can have Mjoll follow you when you return her sword.

People don't always have the time or will to make a riddle. It's not always easy to be creative!

8) I'll just step right in if you don't mind...

2 different ways
One fights, one betrays.

One stolen and cursed
From former foe’s purse

The other you attain
After meeting their bane

7 strong or more
Plus legends in lore

As it indeed should. What's the other half and you've got it. (I'm clearly out of practice with making toughies, but it will return in due time). :P

The other half would be Hircine, the Hunters, the Hunt, or the quest Ill Met by Moonlight. (Covering everything)

(PS, Sinding was the answer to the first riddle in the thread. That I also solved. 8) )

How careless of me. I searched for the overall answer, but not for one of the two mini-answers. I'm afraid that the other half is not Hircine however. She is simply the former foe. You're so nearly there. :mrgreen:

Oh!! Is the second half the circle? In the Companions? It's just werewolves in general, isn't it?

Different types of werewolves.

One stolen and cursed
From former foe’s purse


Refers to Sinding

The other you attain
After meeting their bane


Refers to the Circle, and the Silver-hand (you contract lycanthropy from the circle, but only after meeting the Silver hand)

7 strong or more
Plus legends in lore


Refers again to the Circle, and their numbers (plus those who have gone down in history)

100 percent correct!
Sir Tavic wrote:2 different ways

2 ways to be a werewolf. One is through the fighter's guild equivalent (The companions), and the other requires you to betray Sinding whom you agreed to help.

One stolen and cursed
From former foe’s purse
Sinding gives you a Hircine's cursed ring, the daedric prince you fought in Bloodmoon.

The other you attain
After meeting their bane.
You learn of the companions' secret right after you first meet the Silver Hand, the werewolves' bane.

7 strong or more
Plus legends in lore
There are seven named werewolves in the game, plus you. There are many more in TES Lore.

A broken temple,
Light Obscured.
A Vengeful Mistress,
Gone unheard.

A shining light,
From stone appears,
A holy champion,
With much to learn.

Defiler broken,
Evil undone,
Dead remain dead,
Wield the light.

Fairly easy... Oh well. I won, I don't give a damn :P

Hmmm... Perhaps it is the Twilight Sepulchre and The Pilgrim's path? Broken Temple and Vengeful Mistress hint towards that, although things like "holy champion" and "shining light" hint otherwise.

Nope. Now that someone has got it wrong once, you can all guess the right answer and stop sparing my ego :P

Going need a little more than that. It pertains Meridia's Shrine, but the shrine itself is not the answer.

The Break of Dawn.
To see the world in a grain of sand
And heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
