The Wyrd Sisters[edit]

You'll find Wyress Ileana on the southeastern edge of the Vale of the Guardians along with two Wyress Initiates.

"Please, we're dealing with serious matters here. The guardians are in desperate need of our aid and any interruption can have dire consequences."
Wyress Helene sent me to you.
"Oh, my apologies. You must be the stranger who helped my sisters at Deleyn's Mill.
I'm honored to meet you."

Seeking the Guardians[edit]

If you exit out of the conversation before accepting the quest, she will say "Be ready for anything."

If you started the quest with Initiate Gine, she'll say:

"Sisters, let me talk to this stranger.
We are busy. Please make your business quick."
One of your sisters asked me to find you.
"Did she? Well, now that you've found me, perhaps you can help.
The guardians no longer speak to us. There's an old rite to contact them that might work, but it's too dangerous for us to attempt. After all, we aren't warriors."
I could help.
"I don't know. You're not one of us. But we have to try something, I suppose.
See the lurchers out there? Gather their limbs. That's the dangerous part. Then burn the limbs at the altar atop the nearby ruins. If it works, a guardian should appear."
And then what?
"Discover why the guardians have become silent.
The Bloodthorn cult is involved somehow, I just know it. But we need more information."
I'll see what I can find out.

Otherwise, she'll greet you with:

"I can't talk long. As you know, things are not well in our woods.
The guardians have gone silent and this corruption spreads."
Who are the guardians?
"They're elemental spirits. They used to guide us, but now … nothing. And just when we need them the most.
There's an old rite to contact them that might work, but it's too dangerous for me or my sisters to perform."
Perhaps I can perform the rite.
"I don't know. You're not one of us. But we have to try something, I suppose.
See the lurchers out there? Gather their limbs. That's the dangerous part. Then burn the limbs at the altar atop the nearby ruins. If it works, a guardian should appear."
I'll perform the ritual.

After agreeing to help, she'll add:

"If you're able to speak to the elemental spirit, find me at the Vale of the Guardians. It's north of this location. I'll wait for you there.
And please, hurry! We need the wisdom and guidance of the guardians now more than ever."
Tell me more about the guardians.
"If you must know, the guardians are the Ehlnofey. They've been a part of the land since the dawn of Tamriel.
The guardians have been with us since we first found the Wyrd Tree. They protect the land and guide us in our duties."
What's a lurcher?
"They are abominations of the Bloodthorns! The lurchers were spriggans once, until the cultists twisted and corrupted them.
That's what the Bloodthorns do. We must stop them!"

After speaking with the Guardian of the Earth, you'll find Ileana back at the Wyress camp in the Vale:

"I heard a whisper echo through the forest. Was it the guardians? Did they talk to you?"
Yes. They're imprisoned. The guardian said we need to cleanse the standing stones.
"Imprisoned! Our enemy is that powerful?
We will do whatever we can to help. The guardians must be set free."

Champion of the Guardians[edit]

"What must we do?
Without the aid of the guardians, we can't regain control of our Wyrd Tree."
The guardian said the standing stones must be cleansed. Send your Wyrd there.
"Four of my sisters have gone north to cleanse the stones, but they need protection. Corrupted creatures attack them before they can destroy the foul vines that choke the stones.
You must go and help them."
Destroying the vines is only the first step. The guardian said you'd know what else to do.
"Of course! The standing stones! I should have realized. Take my amulet and protect the Wyrd.
When they're done, weaken a lurcher and use the amulet to control it. Bring the controlled lurcher to the standing stones on the hill. We'll do the rest."
I'll protect the wyresses.
"Meet us at the ritual site. And don't forget the lurcher."

Help the four wyresses, then bring a controlled lurcher to the ritual site. The lurcher will transform into a Spriggan Spirit:

Spriggan Spirit: "By my blood, the corruption is washed away."
Wyress Ileana: "The sacrifice has made this holy place pure again. We can begin the ritual whenever you are ready."
"That poor spriggan spirit is finally free. It is a lurcher no more.
Through its blood, we have cleansed this site. Everything is ready."
It's time to set the elemental guardians free.
"I agree. They've been imprisoned for much too long.
Beldama! Sisters! Focus your power on the stranger! It's time to break Angof's hold on the guardians."

The four wyresses focus beams of magicka at you. Once done, the three elemental guardians appear. If you speak to Ileana now, she'll say:

"My sisters return to camp. Speak with the guardian."

After the quest, she can be found at the Wyresses' camp. There, she is grateful for your help.

"The guardians are free, thanks to you."

Later[edit]

She can later be found at the infirmary in Aldcroft, tending to the Injured Refugees.

"Hello again. We decided that a few of us should come to help the refugees here."
