Skaal Village Regional Activities

A Mother’s Lament*

Speak to Edla, a trader who is usually wandering the village during the day, and she talks about her son. He’s a good lad, but she’s saddened at the prospect of him leaving the village. Tell her you’ll talk to him for her, and she mentions she’d be most grateful.

Nikulas is usually nearby, and he’s full of vigor at the idea of adventuring. He’s weary of village life and considers this a meager existence. You have a few options to convince him to stay. You can:

(Bribe) Tell him you’re willing to help him get started, and hand over some gold. In return, he needs to give his mother some more time.

(Intimidate) Tell him the world is dangerous, and he isn’t ready for it.

(Persuade) Ask him why he’s abandoning his mother when she needs him the most.

When one of these options works, Nikulas agrees to stall his exploration.

Quest Conclusion

Edla is overjoyed at the news and offers some rare herbs as payment for your help.

  • Emperor Parasol Moss (5)
  • Scathecraw (5)
  • Ashen Grass Pod (5)

Return to Falkreath*

Find Morwen, who is usually clanging metal at the forge, or nearby. Strike up a conversation, and she mentions her mother once left the village. Morwen was born in Falkreath, where her mother’s remains are still interred. She found a necklace belonging to her mother and wants it buried with her mother’s bones.

  • Bera’s Necklace

Travel back to Skyrim, and all the way to Falkreath, finding Runil the priest. He tends the graveyard and should be in that area. Speak to him of Morwen’s favor, and he remembers her mother and father, Bera and Ulfarr. Present the necklace—a wedding gift—and Runil agrees to grant the request; it should bring joy to both parents as they walk in Aetherius.

Quest Conclusion

Morwen is most pleased. Once again you are a true ally to the Skaal. A fine reward is then offered.

  • Nordic Carved Helmet
