Detailed WalkthroughEdit

Speak to Urgarlag Chief-bane to get the details of this quest.

What's the pledge today?
"The Ruins of Mazzatun! A city under constant construction. Built up and torn down without any rhyme or reason. The Argonians living there decided it must not be going fast enough. Started enslaving other tribes. Can't have that, can we?"
And if I can handle more than that?
"The tribe claiming the ruins are lead by a mad alchemist, Tree-Minder Na-Kesh. She's up to something with the amber glop pooling under the Hist tree. Using it to drive her people and their slaves mad.
Burn her notes and be done with her."
I pledge to seek out the Ruins of Mazzatun and return Undaunted.

Once you have accepted the quest, you can enter the Ruins of Mazzatun dungeon either by accessing the dungeon through the Dungeon Finder, or heading to Shadowfen and entering the dungeon there with a group. You have the choice of entering the normal dungeon or the veteran version, this choice will affect if you can achieve the optional step and your rewards.

When inside the dungeon, you will need to progress through the dungeon, slaying the following bosses, the Mighty Chudan, Xal-Nur the Slaver and Tree-Minder Na-Kesh. With the last boss, if you are in the veteran dungeon, you have the option of burning the Treeminder's Notes to put the boss in hard mode.

Once you have completed the task, you can return to Urgarlag Chief-bane at any of the Undaunted Enclaves, and speak with her to complete the quest:

"Quite a musk you've acquired. Attractive. Was perfume all you acquired from the Ruins of Mazzatun?"
No. I've killed Tree-Minder Na-Kesh.
"Now I'll never know the secret! Ah well, nothing a quick roll in the bog muck can't fix. No harm done.
Except to the tattered remains of all those Argonians."
What have I earned for defeating Tree-Minder Na-Kesh?
Condition Dialogue
Normal mode completed "Those Xit-Xaht didn't put up the fight I'd hoped. You're not even limping! Still, you did as I asked.
Here's your key and cut. Tomorrow I'll at least try to maim you a little."
Veteran mode completed "Cut the head off the serpent—Lizard? Whatever—the body dies with it. The Xit-Xaht are scattered and leaderless. They won't be bothering anyone anytime soon, even if they do survive.
You earned your key and cut today. Do it again tomorrow."
Veteran Hard Mode completed "Bet she erected a few choice spines after you destroyed her insane scribblings! She look more like an angry porcupine, or a scared cat? Either way, I'll be drinking to you tonight!
Take your due and come back tomorrow. Just don't make it early."

NotesEdit

  • Prior to Update 41, completing this quest with Normal or Veteran mode would award 1 Undaunted Key, and 2 Keys on Veteran Hard Mode.

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
