Walkthrough
Edit
The Hero of Kvatch must recover a Daedric Artifact to be used in opening the portal to Paradise. When an artifact has been found, head over to the Cloud Ruler Temple and give it to Martin.
Recommended Daedric Artifacts
Edit
The following artifacts are recommended as items to be sacrificed, because they have no unique effects or little practical benefit:
- Ebony Blade from the Shrine of Mephala. Enchanted with the common effects Absorb Health and Silence.
- Volendrung from the Shrine of Malacath. Enchanted with the common effects Paralyze and Drain Health.
- Saviour's Hide from the Shrine of Hircine. Enchanted with the common effect Resist Magic.
- Wabbajack from the Shrine of Sheogorath. Has the unique effect of transforming targets into random creatures, but offers little reliable tactical benefit.
Martin's comments on the Daedric Artifacts
Edit
| Artifact | Martin's comment |
|---|---|
| Azura's Star | "Ah, Azura's Star .. as beautiful as all the tales tell." |
| Ebony Blade | "I wonder if Mephala herself knows how many lives this foul blade has taken over the years? I will be glad to give the world a respite from it." |
| Goldbrand | "This blade has slain many a hero over the years. Tamriel will be better off without it for a while." |
| Mace of Molag Bal | "A fearsome weapon and stepped in ancient evil of it's master. May its deadly power turn good for once." |
| Masque of Clavicus Vile | "Ah, the Masque of Clavicus Vile. You are wise not to let yourself get further enmeshed in his plots." |
| Oghma Infinium | "Not many could resist the temptation of the Oghma Infinium. Now it is my turn to be put to the test." |
| Ring of Khajiiti | "Thieves everywhere will curse us both for the loss of this ring, my friend. So be it." |
| Ring of Namira | "I'll sleep better once this keepsake of Namira is gone from my possession. A good choice for our purpose though." |
| Sanguine Rose | "I never thought to see this again. I once possessed it, briefly... a lifetime ago, it seems now... To obtain it and give it up... I honor your dedication to our cause." |
| Savior's Hide | "There is no disguising the bestial nature of some of the Daedric Princes. |
| Skeleton Key | "The merchants of Cyrodiil would sleep more soundly, knowing this key is gone from the world. But why tell them?" |
| Skull of Corruption | "The world will be better off with this foul thing gone from it." |
| Spell Breaker | "Not many people would give up Spellbreaker for destruction, my friend. Your sacrifice honors me." |
| Volendrung | "Who now knows the tale of how this Dwemer hammer came to embody the power of one of their bitter foes?" |
| Wabbajack | "Good riddance to this tool of mischief." |

Martin has found a section of the Mysterium Xarxes which describes a ritual which will allow him to open a portal to Camoran's Paradise, where Mankar Camoran has taken the Amulet of Kings. He has learned that four items are required for this ritual, but has only identified one so far: 'the blood of a Daedra Lord', which he says refers to a Daedric Artifact. |

Trivia
Edit
- Note that the artifact will be permanently destroyed, and cannot be re-obtained through legitimate means. Care should be taken not to give away anything one will want to use later.
- Martin will accept duplicates of Azura's Star, the Ring of Khajiiti, Namira's Ring, Spellbreaker, or Wabbajack produced using a duplication glitch. Giving him a duplicate will allow one to keep all of the original Daedric artifacts. (Confirmed for Xbox 360, PC and PS3)
