Nivis Serethran has heard rumors that the Crook of the Crossing, an artifact that had traditionally belonged to the Hlan Oek Temple, is still near Lake Andaram. He wants me to pay the nearby Monastery of St. Delyn, northwest of Hlan Oek, a visit, and ask Aeyne Redothril about the staff.
20
I have asked Aeyne Redothril, the master of the Monastery of St. Delyn, about the Crook of the Crossing. While she harbors doubts that the staff really dates back to Saint Veloth's time, she has confirmed that it is rumored to currently be in Andarannipal, a Daedric ruin on the southern shore of Lake Andaram.
30
I have found a letter on the leader of the cultists in Andarannipal. It talks about a staff that could be the Crook of the Crossing, and mentions the sender being on Guild business in the Daedric ruin of Varashimmus, as well as a meeting in Idathren to hand over the staff.
31
Zarasni-Sa at the Lake Andaram ferry outpost has told me that she took a scary looking Dunmer to Idathren. When he went there he had a staff with him, and it was gone when she returned.
32
The members of the Mages Guild at Varashimmus told me that the only member of their group who has left the ruins since they came here was Tureyvendil. He has been taking trips to Idathren to pick up supplies for them.
33
People in Idathren have confimed [sic] that Tureyvendil, a member of the Guild of Mages, is in Idathren. He is an Altmer wearing a red robe.
40
Tureyvendil has admited to having bought the Crook of the Crossing from the cultists in Andarannipal.
50
When I demanded the Crook of the Crossing from Tureyvendil he attacked me.
51
I have bought the Crook of the Crossing from Tureyvendil for 2000 gold.
52
I have ordered Tureyvendil to hand over the Crook of the Crossing. He was angry, but submitted to my authority in the Guild of Mages.
