Quest-Related EventsEdit

As you approach him:

Jocien Rane: "Tides go in, tides go out. Oh, you there, can you see me?"

You can talk to him:

"You can see me! And you're not running scared either.
Apologies … so many walk these beaches without ever noticing me. This is an unexpected gift. Perhaps this is fate, and you can help."

What do you need help with?

"You see that sad sap, there in the sand? Bleached by the sun, not yet claimed by the ocean—that's what's left of me. My ring remains upon my finger by some act of love or chance.
I want my wife, Frelene, to have it. Will you return it to her?"

Where's your wife?

"We had a house together in Vastyr. If I know Frelene, she'll still be waiting at the docks night and day for my return. She has the loveliest brown hair and eyes like sea glass. You can't miss her.
Bring her the ring, and tell her I'm at peace."

I'll retrieve your ring and give it to your wife.

"My heart feels lighter knowing Frelene will know my fate. I know her heart will ache, but I hope having my ring will help.
I appreciate you doing this, my friend. A peace is settling over me, knowing that this is in your capable hands now."

So who exactly are you?

"I don't think I'm anybody, now. Once, I was known as Jocien Rane. I was a sailor in Duke Mornard's shipping fleet. We went from Vastyr, to Gonfalon, to Daggerfall, to Wayrest, and back again.
It was a safe enough route. Until this damn war."

The Three Banners War?

"Three Banners War? I've heard of no such thing. I'm talking about Ranser's War, of course. Emeric seemed a decent sort, but his sleight can't be so easily forgotten.
His privateers sank us off our very own shores."

Ranser's War ended almost two decades ago.

"Heh, a good jest, stranger. Next you'll tell me a Daedric Prince sits in the White-Gold Tower. No, my friend. As bitter as it is fighting our kin, this war will end only one way.
With Ranser on the throne and House Mornard properly elevated."

Why can't you travel to Vastyr and see your wife yourself? Are you trapped here?

"I … I do not rightly know, stranger. In life, I had saltwater in my veins. Perhaps I need to be near it in death.
The sea has some claim over me. Watching the tides go in and out brings me a sort of peace, melancholy as it is."

So you haven't tried to leave this beach?

"I can't recall … no, wait, I'm certain I haven't. I've only just arrived here, after all. I don't feel ready.
Perhaps when my bones turn to salt and sand, I'll take a walk. Perhaps then."

After retrieving the ring from the skeleton:

"You have the ring? Good. Please bring it to Frelene. I'm sure you'll find her in Vastyr. Tell her of my fate, but don't worry her overmuch. I want her to know that I'm not suffering.
Thank you, my friend. You can't know how much this means."
