Hist-Brothers are shadowy lurchers seen in the Vision of the Hist. They are embodiment of various Hist trees seen throughout Shadowfen. They have heard the suffering of other Hist trees, and are confused about the events that have taken place during the Dominion's invasion of Shadowfen. You will need to explain the situation to help restore the Hist's connection to Argonians.

Quest-Related EventsEdit
Selecting the wrong choice of dialogue will have the Hist-Brother disappear into an orb of red energy, leaving the vision to sever the connection of the Hist whose troubles it has heard. Answering truthfully and correctly will have the Hist-Brother fade away in a pillar of calm green light to reassure the Hist it heard of the truth.
The Hatching Pools BrotherEdit
It will ask of the truth if Vicecanon Servyna was responsible for the unrest at the Hatching Pools:
- "Butchered! Their blood poisons the ground. The work of those who serve, or those who forget their place?
We'll rend the swamps barren before they tear our roots from the earth!" - What upsets you so much?
- "We feel our brother's rage, but do not understand. He says the Dark Elf vicecanon tried to destroy the eggs at the Hatching Pools. What does this mean?"
- What does your brother say, exactly?
- "The Dark Elf vicecanon returns to the old ways, when egg-clutches hatched as slaves. She destroyed a hatchling to remind the Hist of her power.
If our brother speaks lies, we must feed him to the mire. Which is the truth of it, flesh-walker? - Vicecanon Servyna was never at the Hatching Pools.
- Hist-Brother: "Our brother's pain won't relent, flesh-walker. We abjure him from the Hist!"
- Vicecanon Servyna tried to save the eggs, not destroy them.
- Hist-Brother: "Then we leave our brother with the truth, flesh-walker."
The Stormhold BrotherEdit
It will ask of the truth if Vicecanon Hrondar was responsible for the unrest at Stormhold:
- "Our thoughts turn against us. Who else would have the will but the flesh-walkers?
Is it time for the Song of Sithis to bring the Void? Shall they taste fear, then nothing?" - Why are you upset?
- "Our brother's thoughts roil like thunderheads, yet we do not understand. He says the vicecanons shed their skins like water snakes to hide their intentions! Where is the truth in that?"
- What do you mean?
- "The vicecanons lead the flesh-walkers, but our brother says they lead the skin-walkers as well. If our brother speaks lies, we'll cut the rot of his thoughts away. Which is the truth of it, flesh-walker?"
- No vicecanon was involved with the skin-stealing.
- Hist-Brother: "Our brother's pain won't relent, flesh-walker. We abjure him from the Hist!"
- A skin-stealer posed as Vicecanon Hrondar, against his will.
- Hist-Brother: "Then we leave our brother with the truth, flesh-walker."
The Ten-Maur-Wolk BrotherEdit
It will ask of the truth if Lyranth was responsible for the unrest at Ten-Maur-Wolk:
- "We heard the wails, felt the trembling of roots. But what our brother says of the flesh-walkers, it cannot be!"
- What's wrong?
- "Our brother's fear spreads through the roots. He claims the flesh-walkers boil our blood in vats of iron, all at a Daedra's command! Where is the truth in that?"
- Please, explain.
- "Our brother claims his blood was stolen from him by flesh-walkers and boiled in vats to sate a Daedra's gluttony. But if his fear overtakes him, we must sever his roots from the rest of us. Which truth is true, flesh-walker?"
- A Dremora named Lyranth was responsible.
- Hist-Brother: "Our brother's pain won't relent, flesh-walker. We abjure him from the Hist!"
- Ruuvitar boiled the Hist sap. The Dremora was his prisoner.
- Hist-Brother: "Then we leave our brother with the truth, flesh-walker."
