Detailed Walkthrough

As you approach Fort Sphinxmoth, you will meet an Imperial named Rafora Casca who warns you that the road isn't safe. She is tracking a group of thieves who stole from the Temple of Mara just over the border. If you want to help out you can speak to Priestess Marcella.

Continue along the path to the north. Marcella Ammianus is standing to the left of the skyshard, behind Tertia Macatus. She says the thieves stole four artifacts: the Chalice of Mara, the Circlet of Mara, the Dagger of Mara and the Phylactery of Mara.

The phylactery is in the first room you enter in the fort. It is in a trunk on the upper level, guarded by Darius. The circlet is in the third room. Continue over the wooden bridge to a room full of crates and a note. If you enter the crocodile pit, the room is directly across from you when you open the gate into Fort Sphinxmoth. The dagger is in the tower to the southwest, left of the waterfall. The trunk is behind the stairs in the tower. The chalice is in the bandits' treasure room. You get to this room by using the lever to the left of the gate with curtains on it. The lever and gate are to the left in the fifth room, the one you enter after leaving the area with the waterfall.

Return to Marcella Ammianus outside Fort Sphinxmoth to be rewarded for finding the relics.

Notes

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
