Her mystery was as essential to her as savagery was to Boethiah or treachery was to Molag Bal. It took years for me to understand the simple fact that I could never understand Nocturnal. Everything about her was dark and shrouded, even the way she spoke and the acts she required of me. ![]() I strove to understand her labyrinthine philosophy, the source of her mysterious pain. At last I had found the personal mistress I had so long desired. As the book prescribed, I called to her on her holy day, the 3rd of Hearth Fire. It was in an old and profane tome that I came upon the name of Nocturnal-Nocturnal the Night Mistress, Nocturnal the Unfathomable. She is a mystery, one that can't be solved.įor the next eighteen years of my life, I worshipped no one. I assure you, had she been displeased with you, we wouldn't be having this conversation."Īlso, it's not that Nocturnal is apathetic towards everything. Think of her as a scolding mother continually pushing you harder to be successful outwardly sounding angry but silently content. The Last Dragonborn: "Pleased? She sounded indifferent." Nocturnal seemed quite pleased with your efforts." Karliah: "I'm glad you were able to bring the Key back safely. Which is probably the best blessing there is for the average mortal. Indeed the artifact travels between heroes and locations, as the legend says, it would never be the property of one thief for too long.As shown in Skyrim's Thrives Guild quest line keep Nocturnal happy, or content is the better word I suppose, and she'll shower her followers with good luck. Then sometime in 3E 397, the Hero of the Azra's Crossing found the Skeleton Key in one of the chests in the Citadel of Broken Wing. Using the map, the Eternal Champion found and claimed the key. Many years later, the Eternal Champion during the Imperial Simulacrum, found a map in a dungeon in Valenwood that pointed to the location of the Skeleton's Key somewhere in Summerset Isle. The Skeleton's Key was reported, owned for the first time by an obscured person named Arrovan. Detail conversation of the event can be read here. ![]() The artifact was finally recovered by the Champion of Cyrodiil, and for the deed, the champion was rewarded with the Skeleton Key. It was stolen by some Leyawiin thieves and hidden in Tidewater Cave. Nocturnal lose another of her artifacts, the Eye of Nocturnal. To get the cowl back, Nocturnal was forced to release Hrormir's soul and left with nothing to gain.
