Breaking the Barrier[]

Urcelmo has rallied the Eyes of the Queen, Eagle's Talons and First Auridon Marines to the Firsthold Mages Guild to confront High Kinlady Estre and the Veiled Heritance. He instructs the Vestige to seek out Sinien to break the wards which will lead to this quest.

Among the nobles gathered at Rawl'kha Temple.

The Moonlit Path[]

In the Demi-Plane of Jode the Vestige experiences an apocalyptic version of the future, in which the Aldmeri Dominion has collapsed, loosing the allegiances of both the Khajiit and the Bosmer. In this scenario Battlereeve Urcelmo becomes corrupted by the Veiled Heritance causing him to betray the queen by mortally wounding her and stabbing Razum-Dar. Urcelmo must be defeated by the Vestige. Learning of this vision, Ayrenn proceeds to make jokes about treachery, which brings out Urcelmo's insecurity.

Dialogue[]

A Hostile Situation

"Explain yourself. What are you doing here?"

Keep your voice down, Battlereeve. Razum-dar sent me. "Razum-dar. Yes, I know the name. You haven't answered my question, though."
There's a plot to kill the Queen, battlereeve. "Hmm. We've taken every precaution. The whole area is locked down. Watch Captain Astanya assured me."
The captain is the one behind this. She plans to attack the Queen in the temple. "The guard captain? Absurd!"
To Mathiisen

At the start of the quest:

"One day, over a drink, you must tell me what happened down there. For now, the Queen's safety is my primary concern."

What now, Battlereeve? "Razum-dar has been investigating threads in the Veiled Heritance plot. We think he's caught a break in Mathiisen, and he could use some help. Head up there and lend him a hand, will you?"
Yes, sir.
Breaking the Barrier

The First Auridon Marines instruct the Vestige to find him at the Firsthold Mages Guild:

"Stars above! You've no idea how relieved I am to see you. I hope you're resolved. We've got a hard road ahead of us."

Just tell me what to do, Urcelmo. "Estre has sealed the castle within a powerful barrier. It's powered by wards and guarded by Dremora. Destroy the wards and we drop the barrier."
How do we lower the wards? "One of the Guild mages, Sinien, has a plan. We retook the hall here to gain access to a source of magical power. Head inside. She'll tell you what to do."
Good luck. Battlereeve. "Trinimac guide your hand. And may he protect us all."
Can you hold this position? "We'll be fine. We've held them off this long. We can hold a bit longer. You just focus on what Sinien has to tell you."
Who are these defenders? They're not Marines. "Firsthold must not fall. We've unsheathed our sharpest blades. Curious about these folk?"
Who are all these defenders? They're not Marines. "Firsthold must not fall. We've unsheathed our sharpest blades. Curious about these folk?"
The Wood Elves and Khajiit in leathers? "Razum-dar's folk. Eyes of the Queen. I know you've worked with him before. Normally they'd never expose themselves like this. The cat said: "We do not draw blades in the daylight." But here they are, making sure we live through this."
Who are those mages? "Sinien's spellslingers. Mages from the guild hall. Normally they'd be curled up with a good book or brewing some obscure potion. They've done the guild proud, backing us up."
The soldiers in heavy armor. Who are they? "My personal elite guard. We call them Talons. The queen has her Eyes. I have my Talons. Between the Talons and the Marines, the finest blades in Auridon are arrayed against Oblivion."

Conversations[]

A Hostile Situation

Queen Ayrenn: "A moment, Urcelmo. I would hear what this one has to say." Battlereeve Urcelmo: "Queen Ayrenn, I fear for your safety. Please, disregard what was said just—" Queen Ayrenn: "Razum-dar was mentioned. He acts on my behalf. If you won't investigate, I will." Battlereeve Urcelmo: "Apologies, my queen. As you will. You are a capable woman. But you must be wary. You, come with me. We'll investigate the temple together."

Entering the temple, Steward Eminwe is lying wounded on the floor:

Battlereeve Urcelmo: "Mara be merciful. What's happened here?" Steward Eminwe: "You. I'm sorry. I was wrong. I tried to stop them ... Watch out. On the balcony. It's Astanya! ... It's a trap!"

Eminwe is struck by A flaming arrow fired by Watch Captain Astanya from the balcony:

Watch Captain Astanya: "Urcelmo! I see you've met my latest toy." Battlereeve Urcelmo: "Astanya! Traitor! Come down here and face me!" Watch Captain Astanya: "Our "Queen" has betrayed us. I wanted her head. I'll settle for yours! Kill them!"

Several Heritance Cutthroats attack Urcelmo and the Vestige. After defeating them:

Battlereeve Urcelmo: "So be it, Astanya!" Watch Captain Astanya: "It's not over yet, Battlereeve!"

A second wave of Heritance Cutthroats then attacks:

Watch Captain Astanya: "The Dominion won't last. The Veiled Heritance will see to that!" Battlereeve Urcelmo: "The Dominion will last long after your corpse cools! Now come down here and face your death!"

In the Name of the Queen

As the Queen Ayrenn prays to the ancestors at Tanzelwil:

Queen Ayrenn: "We call upon our honored ancestors to pass on their memory and wisdom.
Ancestral Spirit: "Your ancestors disavow you, false one. The Veiled Queen is the rightful heir, and Norion shall end your reign." Battlereeve Urcelmo: "My queen, look out!"

After Ayrenn asks the Vestige to accompany her to the catacombs:

Queen Ayrenn "I can handle myself. I was a warrior long before I became a Queen!" Battlereeve Urcelmo: "Your Majesty! Let me come with you!"

Sever All Ties

Entering the Deadlands:

Urcelmo: "Let's end this." Estre: "What do we have here? A lamb sent to slaughter? You dare to challenge the power of Mehrunes Dagon?"
