The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Hints
Lord's Mail
1 of 10: Varus Vantinius is in Duke Vedam Dren's room on the second floor of the Grand Council Chambers in Ebonheart (Vivec region). He'll give you these last few quests after you've reached the rank of Knight Protector.
2 of 10: The first one involves finding and returning some terrific enchanted heavy armor called Lord's Mail.
3 of 10: Vantinius gives you a key to the Imperial Shrine room, so go to the Imperial Commission (there's a door leading there on the Grand Council Chambers' first floor) and check out the shrine.
4 of 10: Carefully examine the walls to find that there's a heavily-locked secret door in one of them.
5 of 10: You can unlock the door if you're a really, really good lockpicker, if you have a scroll of Ekash's Lock Splitter, or if you have a worn Imperial key.
6 of 10: However, you don't really need a key. All there is behind the secret door is an entrance to the Underground Caves area, and you can enter that without a key by leaving the castle and finding the underwater entrance (location 19 on the Vivec map).
7 of 10: However you enter the caves, explore around until you find Furius Acilius.
8 of 10: He's the guy with the armor, and you're going to have to kill him to get it.
9 of 10: You can leave right after taking the Lord's Mail, or you can stick around and find some extra goodies.
10 of 10: When you report back to Vantinius, he'll take the Lord's Mail and give you the vastly inferior Duke's Guard Silver Cuirass. (But don't worry -- you'll be able to get the Lord's Mail back the hard way in Vantinius' third quest.)
