Quest-Related EventsEdit

Alik'r DesertEdit

Rise of the DeadEdit

Through a chase, you'll eventually find Azah in the caves below the city of Sentinel:

"I don't recognize you, but under the circumstances, I am pleased to make your acquaintance.
If you are here to render me aid, I can promise that you'll be well rewarded."
I'm just glad I found you, Your Highness.
"Ah, so you do know who I am then? Did my father put you up to this? Has he been watching me?
Well … I shouldn't be so accusatory. If he was tracking me, then I guess it turned out to be extremely fortunate."

The Impervious VaultEdit

If you haven't started the quest, he will say "Well, this is embarrassing …."

He'll continue:

"I don't wish to sound ungrateful, but you should know that kidnapping me was just a distraction.
The Withered Hand has been planning this for years. If only we had heard the rumors sooner. At this point, I'm not sure we can stop them."
Stop them from doing what?
"From tunneling into the Impervious Vault. This was just one of their attempts. It's a brilliant plan really.
The gates of the vault have been magically sealed for centuries, but underneath, the vault's apparently not so impervious."
Why do they want to break in to the vault?
"Undoubtedly, they hope to steal the Ansei Wards. With the wards, Uwafa and Alasan could become unimaginably powerful. And that would be disastrous.
No matter the risks, we must try to stop them. Let's return to the palace and consult with my father."
Sure. Let me untie you.

Free him from his bindings and he'll say:

Prince Azah : "There's a ladder to the south that leads up into the city."

If you do not go directly to the palace, when you do get there, Azah will be waiting for you:

"Thank you for meeting me."
We seem to have been separated somehow.
"Indeed. A thousand pardons. I am preoccupied, to say the least.
I must go and warn the guard about the threat to the Impervious Vault. If you would relay the news to my father, the king, though, I would be forever in your debt."
I will go speak to the king then.

However if you do go directly to the palace, Azah will follow you to the palace where he'll stop outside and say:

Prince Azah : "Tell my father, the king, what they're planning. I'll summon the guard to the vault!"

Either way, he'll then head to the vault.

Arrive at the entrance to the vault after soliciting Gabrielle Benele's help, and he'll be waiting with his father and General Thoda:

"I am tempted to apologize for you getting caught up in all this, but something tells me the hand of fate brought you here.
Besides, if we can't stop them from stealing the Ansei Wards, none of us will be safe."

Return from clearing the vault and he'll say:

"Glad you made it back safely, though I get the distinct impression that things did not go well in there …."

After the quest if you haven't started In Search of the Ash'abah, he will say:

"I regret that my father did not heed the warnings of the Ash'abah before, but I am truly grateful that you appeared to help set matters straight.
Sometimes one person can make all the difference."

In Search of the Ash'abahEdit

After speaking to his father about the next steps, he'll say:

"Finally my father stops chasing the mirage! I advised him to listen to Ash'abah weeks ago, but better late than never, yes? Please, speak with Marimah, while I reach out to my Ash'abah contacts.
We will find a way to stop the Withered Hand."

Trouble at Tava's BlessingEdit

A courier will arrive in Bergama to relay the Prince's request to meet with him at Tava's Blessing, to look for the second Ansei Ward. When you arrive, the town will already be overrun with the Withered Hand. Prince Azah will be holed up with Captain Rawan and Sergeant Hadima.

If you speak to him before starting Alasan's Plot, he'll greet you with:

"I am grateful to see a friendly face. In desperate moments, we need all the assistance we can get."

Alasan's PlotEdit

No matter why you arrived in Tava's Blessing, you can speak with Azah to learn about the situation and how you can help out. If you choose to start the quest through him, he will say "Have faith, captain! The answer to our prayers has arrived!"

Speaking to him:

"I heard the commotion out there and somehow knew it was you. It is good and good to see you, my illustrious friend.
Your arrival comes at a fortuitous time, as we are indeed in dire straits. And it will soon get much, much worse."
How will it get worse?
"That fiend Alasan is here! With Uwafa dead, he has the Withered Hand twisted to his own designs.
He seeks power. The reason they aren't raising these people—it's because Alasan plans to turn himself into a lich!"
How would Alasan turn himself into a lich?
"He corrupted one of the Ansei Wards, using it as some sort of necromantic focus to channel energy from the the dead. He's performing a ritual in the lighthouse.
He says this ritual will transform him into a lich. Will you help me stop him?"
Yes. Just tell me what to do.
"I believe we must first destroy the focuses. Alasan's minions have been piling the dead around them so they can channel energy for the ritual.
Destroy the focuses. Then go to the lighthouse and find a way to disrupt Alasan's ritual."
How did you learn of Alasan's plan to become a lich?
"When we arrived, the necromancers had already killed everyone. We cautiously crept closer and I spotted Alasan.
Evil has twisted his features, but I recognized him. We attacked, but you see how that turned out."
You knew Alasan before?
"Yes. Since we were knee-high to a dune beetle. He and Uwafa both. We studied together, but they were sadistic little cretins, obsessed with death in all its forms. That was before their father turned.
If only we had killed all of them back then."
Why did they come to Tava's Blessing? / Why did the Withered Hand attack Tava's Blessing?
"My father sent me because he feared the Withered Hand might target our navy.
I don't think that's why the necromancers came, though. Many centuries ago, this was the home of one of the Ansei. One who sacrificed themselves to create the wards."
Why would that matter?
"I suspect it has something to do with Alasan's plan to become a lich.
If this is where the Ansei was born, perhaps Alasan had to bring the ward here in order to corrupt it. That's just an educated guess, of course."
How have things been going in Sentinel? / How have things been in Sentinel?
"Not good, I'm afraid. Rumors about someone stealing the Ansei Wards run rampant. And every day there are new reports of risen dead.
The Crowns and some Forebears are calling for my father to step down. There's even talk of rebellion."

Once you destroy the focus sites and before you go to the lighthouse, he'll say:

"Whatever Alasan is doing, you must stop him.
I fear that if he succeeds in this endeavor, the future of Alik'r is in jeopardy."

After you have stopped Alasan's plans and restored the Ansei Ward, you can find Azah on the outskirts of town with Talia at-Marimah and Shiri.

"What foulness is afoot now? The dead have risen? I thought Alasan was purposefully not raising them!
Were we too late? Has Alasan transformed himself into a lich?"
No. Alasan is no longer a threat.
"He's not? We should rejoice then and relish the knowledge of his defeat.
Without Alasan, the rest of these necromancers do not concern me. Not in the least. But what of the Ansei Ward? Do you have it?"
Yes, but the Ansei asked me to give it to someone I trust.
"And you brought it to me? You honor me, hero. I pledge to you, for as long as I live, it will not fall into evil hands again.
Now, only the final Ansei Ward remains. But with Uwafa and Alasan gone, who could have it?"
Ansei Maja said there is another sibling.
"Another sibling? But who could that be? Wait, Suturah did have another child. A very young daughter.
I remember her now, nipping at her brothers' heels. But her name escapes me. Still, somehow we must find her."

If you exit out of the conversation before turning in the quest, he will say:

"You do me a great honor, entrusting me with this Ansei Ward. I pledge to you, for as long as I live, it will not fall into evil hands again.
Now, only the final Ansei Ward remains. But with Uwafa and Alasan gone, who could have it?"
Ansei Maja said there is another sibling. (Leads to quest completion dialogue)

If you talk with him afterwards, he will be planning to start the search for Suturah's daughter.

"I will send word to Sentinel. Perhaps my father or someone else at court can recall the name of Suturah's daughter.
Let's hope we can find her soon."

Amputating the HandEdit

While you were dealing with the Imperial incursion in Satakalaam, Talia and Prince Azah were dealing with the Withered Hand raising the consecrated dead in the Motalion Necropolis. Unfortunately, they were overwhelmed and Azah was captured. He can be found in one of the tombs, tied to a chair, a familiar scene which annoys him.

"Tava damn me for a fool! I can't believe I let you find me like this again! Once was humiliating enough!
There's no time for recriminations, though. The Withered Hand has stolen back the Ansei Wards we recovered! They have all three again!"
How did that happen?
"You gave Ansei Maja's Ward into my care, and so I carried it with me for safekeeping. Throne Keeper Farvad was here, too, with Ansei Radan's Ward.
I think Shiri planned it this way. She lured us here to get the wards back."
What makes you think Shiri planned all this?
"It is obvious to any with eyes to see. She fooled us all.
Apprenticing with Scholar Zohreh to learn about the Ansei Wards, coming with us to Tava's Blessing. She is wicked! Just like her father. She is the sibling we were warned about!"
How do we stop her?
"I do not know. And I have no idea as to what she has planned. If we get the Ansei Wards back, that should at least slow her down.
Shiri took Ansei Maja's Ward into the next chamber, where she performed some kind of ritual. I heard it from here."
Is she still in there?
"No. After she finished her ritual, she departed. I think she left the ward behind, though.
Please. Go in there and get it. Then find Throne Keeper Farvad and the ward he was carrying. I shall follow after … if you would untie me first, that is."
I'll untie you and then be on my way. (You free him)
I have more questions first.
"Even so, if you could just untie me and let me stretch my muscles first, I'll answer all your questions."

Once he is untied he can be asked more questions:

"Mara's grace! The humiliation of being rescued twice … it makes me doubt all the training I received as heir to the throne.
You must retrieve the wards and quickly. If my father hears I had one and lost it, he'd pack me off to the Fighters Guild!"
Why didn't you recognize Shiri before? / Did you know Shiri before?
"I knew you'd ask that. I feel like such a fool. She was standing right behind us at Tava's Blessing, for Stendarr's sake!
After we parted ways, I tried so hard to remember the sister's name, but I just couldn't recall it."
When did you recognize her?
"Only after it was too late. She and her minions fell upon us as soon as we entered the necropolis. In her rage, I finally saw the family resemblance.
What about you? Did Talia tell you?"
No. I found her cousin's journal, which revealed who she was.
"So you learned Shiri's true identity before I did? Truly, I am impressed!
I only hope such knowledge helps us stop her. First though, you must recover Ansei Maja's Ward, and then find Throne Keeper Farvad and the ward he was carrying."
Why would Shiri leave Ansei Maja's Ward here?
"She and her necromancers performed a ritual in there. I suspect that is why the ward remains.
I suggest you exercise caution when entering the room. I would assist you, but I need a few moments to recover. Talia will help you, though."
Are you sure Farvad is still alive?
"No, but I have a feeling he survived the attack.
I don't know if Tu'whacca truly speaks to him or not, but he has always struck me as someone who the gods smile down upon. Regardless, we have to look for him. We owe him that much."


Once you have rescued Farvad and helped him cleanse Ansei Rahan's Ward, you can meet up with Azah outside Suturah's tomb. When you arrive, there will be a dark blue barrier blocking the door.

"I know I told you Farvad was probably alive, but in my heart I was sure he had met a grisly end. I'm glad I was wrong. He's strange, but he's a tough old priest. I'm pleased you saved him and recovered his ward."

After you speak with Farvad, you can choose someone to accompany you to fight Shiri. Prince Azah is one of choices:

"You've been beside me in this battle since the beginning. You know I'll do whatever it takes to destroy the Withered Hand.
That said, Shiri's already proven more than a match for me. We have to win this one, so you need to take the lead."
You're the prince. Should you really put yourself at risk for this?
"To be honest, Shiri made me to appear a fool. The little waif who once nipped at her brothers' heels got the better of me. She defeated me.
I'll fight alongside you for revenge, if nothing else. Besides, with you at me side, there is no risk."
I want you to join me then, Your Highness.

Prince Azah then becomes your follower:

I need a moment before I make this decision.
<Ends Conversation.>

Depending on who is chosen, the other two will remain behind to unseal the door. The conversations will be as follows:

Talia as the Companion
Throne Keeper Farvad: "Tu'whacca demands justice be done!"
Prince Azah: "This wall will not stand before the power of an Ansei Ward."
<The barrier is removed>
Talia at-Marimah: "It is done, lead on."
Throne Keeper Farvad as the Companion
Throne Keeper Farvad: "Tu'whacca walks with you, and so will I."
<The Ansei Wards are channeled to unlock the door.>
Talia at-Marimah: "All right, let us open the door then."
Prince Azah: "This wall will not stand before the power of an Ansei Ward."
<The door is unsealed.>
Throne Keeper Farvad: "It is done. Tu'whacca says it is time for us to go in."
If Prince Azah as the Companion
Prince Azah: "All right. Farvad, Talia … you know what to do."
Talia at-Marimah: "All right, Let us open the door then."
<The Ansei Wards are channeled to unlock the door.>
Throne Keeper Farvad: "Tu'whacca demands justice be done!"
Prince Azah: "Yes! That did it. Lead on."

Restoring the Ansei WardsEdit

Prince Azah is present at the ceremony in the Impervious Vault during Restoring the Ansei Wards.

"When I think back to when this all started, when the Withered Hand had captured me and was holding me beneath the city … I can't believe how far we've come.
It wasn't easy, but we defeated the Withered Hand. We're heroes now!"

Seasonal PrologueEdit

 
Prince Azah in Fighter's Guild garments

Azah can be found at the Artisans' Row in Davon's Watch, to the north of the Mages Guild hall in Daggerfall, or at the Harborside Market in Vulkhel Guard. As you get closer, you'll hear him speaking:

(?)

A Guild in CrisisEdit

"Comrade, the Fighters Guild is under assault. As a member, you deserve to know that four guildhalls have already fallen. And now Guildmaster Merric has disappeared.
As much as it pains me to admit, I need assistance to track him down."
Who's attacking the Fighters Guild?
"So far, distinctive clues elude us and no one has claimed credit for the attacks.
At this rate, they could destroy the guild before we learn anything. It's the biggest crisis since the Planemeld, but without Merric, I'm not sure how to proceed."
You said Guildmaster Merric has disappeared?
"Yes. Merric was supposed to meet me here, but he never arrived. While most of the guild secures the remaining guildhalls, I could use some outside help to track down our guildmaster. Then together we can stop these attacks.
Can I hire you, wayfarer?"
I'm in. Let's find Merric and stop the attacks on the Fighters Guild.
"I've received conflicting reports from trusted guild scouts. Merric has supposedly been sighted in Malabal Tor, northern Alik'r Desert, and Eastmarch.
Obviously, he can't be everywhere. Choose a location to investigate and meet the scout there."
I'm ready to go look for Guildmaster Merric.
"Merric is many things, but mage is not one of them. I trust the scouts, but he could not be in three distant places at the same time. I need you to make your best guess. Pick a location and see if you can find our missing guildmaster."
Where did the reports say Merric was spotted again?
"Scouts sent reports of Merric being sighted in Malabal Tor, the Alik'r Desert, and Eastmarch."
It's obvious that you're worried about Merric. I'll do whatever I can to help you find him. (kind option)
(?)
If you care so much about Merric, why aren't you out there trying to find him yourself? (rude option)
(?)

You can then ask him the following questions:

What do the reports from Malabal Tor say?
Tell me about the report from the Alik'r Desert.
Describe the report from Eastmarch.
