Dialogues[]
- Darkshade Caverns I
Speaking to her after she scares off Tervur:
- "Ah, the murderer's accomplice. I think I'll kill you first."
- Now, hold on, lady. You've got the wrong idea.
- "You mean you're not in league with that Sadri character? I find that hard to believe."
- Well, I agreed to help but... what was that about a murder?
- "Tervur Sadri is a murderer. He brought in these thugs to drive out our miners, then killed my father and stole the deed to our mine. I guess he didn't expect me to come after him. But you cut a swath through his protectors."
- He said we were searching for your father.
- "Searching for his money, is what he meant. He's convinced Father had a cache of gold somewhere in the bottom of the mine. But if Father had such a cache, he took the secret to his grave."
- I'm sorry. What can I do to help?
- "Well, I need to stay here and see about getting this mess cleaned up. As for you—go down into that pit and catch up with your former accomplice, Tervur Sadri."
- I take it you want that deed back.
- "Yes. And by the corpses I saw on my way in, I'm sure you know how to deal with him. Oh, and you can keep anything valuable you find down there. I guess it's only fair."
After completing the "Mine All Mine":
"What a mess. We'll be eating omelets tonight, I can tell you."
- So you had no idea this Dwarven cave was here? "None whatsoever. And I wish the burrowers had never broken through. This is nothing but trouble. Oh, I admit, it looks kind of pretty in there. But no miner's going to want to work in a pit that's infested by rolling buzzsaws."
- Burrowers? You mean the kwama opened up the Dwarven cave? "Just doing what comes naturally. And now their warriors are defending the hive."
- Darkshade Caverns II
"Was that an explosion just now? Speak to the Mage. She's been looking for you."
- What happened to the mine? "Utter tragedy. When my kwama unearthed the Dwemer ruins in these caverns an illness afflicted my miners...and the kwama."
- Illness? "It awakens feral instincts and ferocity. The result, as you've seen, was chaos. The fighting that ensued unearthed a host of Dwemer constucts that gladly joined the fray, and the mine became a battlefield."
After completing the quest:
"To Oblivion with kwama egg mining. I've worked out a deal with Shatasha to rent the ruins to the Mages Guild for research. If that lost city is a big as she says it is, I should be well-off for quite a while."
- What's next for you? "Anything but egg mining. I've witnessed dozens and dozens slaughtered, I've fought feral Kwama, Dwemer machines, and mutant Netch. I think … I think egg mining is the worst profession in Tamriel."
Conversations[]
- Darkshade Caverns I
Nervyna will first appear after Foreman Llothan is killed and Tervur Sadri begins gloating:
- Tervur Sadri: "Productive bugs, these Kwama. They're practically laying money down here."
- Tervur Sadri: "Well have this place cleaned out in no time."
- Tervur Sadri: "Oh this is good stuff. Old Selos must have been raking in a fortune."
- Tervur Sadri: "So you believed there was gold in here. Fools."
- <Nervyna appears on the balcony above.>
- Nervyna Selos: "Tervur Sadri!"
- Nervyna Selos: "Drop those weapons, murderer!"
- Tervur Sadri: "Ah, Nervyna. I suspected you were smarter than your father."
- Nervyna Selos: "You'll pay for this, Sadri!"
- Tervur Selos: "Well, well … you'll have to catch me first!"
- <Tervur disappears and runs away.>
- Nervyna Selos: "By Vivec, no!"
- Darkshade Caverns II
After Transmuted Hive Lord's death:
Nervyna Selos: "Hey! A little help here!" Shatasha: "Are you all right? I was sent by the Mages Guild to help." Nervyna Selos: "I know. I'm they one who sent for you. Did me a whole lot of good." Nervyna Selos: "About time someone showed up...have we met before? Yes! You're the one who caught that rat, Tervur!" Shatasha: "You mentioned Dwemer ruins in your passage. Where might they be?" Nervyna Selos: "Further down the tunnels, beyond the door. That's where the kwama first broke through." Nervyna Selos: "Give me a minute to catch my breath."
Approaching Grobull the Transmuted:
Shatasha: "Amazing! Do you know what this is? This is Rkugamz!" Shatasha: "That poor Netch. It must have been wounded by the Dwemer constructs." Nervyna Selos: "Stand back. We don't know what it's capable of." Shatasha: "It's a Netch. They're the most docile—"
