The Elder Scrolls III: Bloodmoon Hints

The Skaal Test of Wisdom

  • 1 of 13: Talk to Heart-Fang about "prove your wisdom" and "investigate a crime" after finishing the loyalty test to get this one.
  • 2 of 13: He wants you to poke around in the village and see if you can come up with any evidence regarding the case of Ice-Mane vs. Halfhand.
  • 3 of 13: You can go talk to Mr. Ice-Mane in the outdoor village area and Mr. Halfhand in his hut (and Mrs. Ice-Mane in her hut), but it won't do much good.
  • 4 of 13: You need to find some physical evidence of what's going on.
  • 5 of 13: Many of the people hinted that Halfhand and Mrs. Ice-Mane might have had an affair. Perhaps you could find some proof of that.
  • 6 of 13: Snoop around in the Halfhand and Ice-Mane huts.
  • 7 of 13: The proof you need is the letter that's sitting on a bed in the Ice-Mane hut, half-hidden under a pillow.
  • 8 of 13: Pick it up and then talk to Risi Ice-Mane about "investigate a crime" and "Rigmor Halfhand."
  • 9 of 13: Now go talk to Halfhand in his hut about "investigate a crime" to get him to confess and follow you willingly to the Greathall.
  • 10 of 13: Take him there and talk to Heart-Fang to learn that Halfhand's fate is in your hands.
  • 11 of 13: You could choose to exile him, but the Skaal will view a decision to feed him to the magic Caenlorn Wolves as a much wiser and more merciful one.
  • 12 of 13: If you do choose to throw him to the wolves, escort him outside and then watch as he enters the circular pen in the center of the village and gets killed.
  • 13 of 13: In any case, this quest is over and you get the Helm of the Wolf's Heart. Report to Heart-Fang to get the next and last Skaal test.
