- ―Augur of Dunlain[src]
Augur of Dunlain is a divination artifact found within The Dark Midden level of The Midden of The College of Winterhold. Previously a gifted student of the college, the Augur of Dunlain ended up in its current state due to an overly zealous pursuit in his discipline of magic. Since, it has been known for its wisdom, but the people of the college do not like to talk about it.
