Detailed WalkthroughEdit

TaskEdit

Synnolian Tunifus at the Imperial Chapels in Ebonheart will ask you to run another errand to fetch five pieces of Scrib Jelly, harvested from the bodies of dead scribs. He also provides directions to an egg mine with some scribs and teaches you the Detect Creature spell to help you hunt the animals.

Gathering Scrib JellyEdit

The Shulk Egg Mine named by Tunifus is just southwest of Balmora. You may need to kill a number of scribs to get the five units of jelly, and you can talk to one of the miners outside, Dinok, for another couple of units if you need them (if his disposition is high enough). Of course, you can also acquire scrib jelly by other means; scribs are fairly common in other locations and you can purchase their jelly from many vendors.

Return to Tunifus with the scrib jelly to receive a Potion of Cure Poison, a Potion of Cure Blight Disease, and an apprentice's alembic.

NotesEdit

  • If you fail to collect enough scrib jelly, Tunifus' disposition towards you drops by ten.

BugsEdit

  • Each time you ask Dinok about Scrib Jelly he will give you another portion even as he tells you that "I gave you all I have."

Index Finishes Quest Journal Entry
1 Synnolian Tunifus needs five units of scrib jelly for cure poison and cure blight potions. He says the closest reliable source of scribs is the Shulk Egg mine, southwest of Balmora, on the west bank of the Ouadi Odai, near a swinging bridge. He also taught me a little spell he thought would be useful.
5 Finishes quest  I told Synnolian Tunifus I would not be able to bring him the five units of scrib jelly he asked for. He was disappointed, and told me to take a day to reflect on my shortcomings, and attempt to amend them before I approach him again for a lay healer mission.
50 Finishes quest  I delivered five units of scrib jelly to Synnolian Tunifus. He gave me a cure poison potion, a cure blight potion, and an alembic as a reward.
