Ebony mail quest skyrim
The Ebony Mail is a unique and powerful shield in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It's a Daedric artifact that can be obtained by completing a quest for the Daedric Prince of Destruction, Malacath.
Here's how to get the Ebony Mail:
Quest: "The Cursed Tribe"
To start the quest, you'll need to find a tribe of Khajiit nomads in the Rift region. They can be found in a camp near the city of Rorikstead. Speak to the tribe's leader, a Khajiit named Kharjo, and he'll tell you about a curse that's been placed on his tribe.
Kharjo will ask you to find a way to lift the curse, which is said to be the work of Malacath, the Daedric Prince of Destruction. To do this, you'll need to find a way to appease Malacath and convince him to lift the curse.
Finding Malacath
To find Malacath, you'll need to travel to the Shrine of Malacath, which is located in the mountains east of Whiterun. The shrine is guarded by a group of powerful Daedra, so be prepared for a fight.
Once you've defeated the Daedra, you'll be able to enter the shrine and speak with Malacath. He'll tell you that the only way to lift the curse is to retrieve a piece of his own flesh, which has been stolen by a group of bandits.
Retrieving Malacath's Flesh
To retrieve Malacath's flesh, you'll need to track down the bandits and kill them. They can be found in a cave system located in the mountains north of Whiterun. Be careful, as the bandits are well-armed and well-trained.
Once you've killed the bandits, you'll be able to retrieve Malacath's flesh and return it to him. He'll be grateful and will reward you with the Ebony Mail, a powerful shield that absorbs a significant amount of damage.
Tips and Tricks
- Make sure to save your game before speaking with Malacath, as the conversation can be quite challenging.
- Bring a good set of armor and a powerful weapon to the fight against the bandits.
- Consider using a follower to help you with the fight against the bandits.
- The Ebony Mail is a unique shield, so you won't be able to upgrade it or replace it with a different shield.
