The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Hints

Visit the Cavern of the Incarnate

  • 1 of 9: You can ask around in the Urshilaku camp about various key phrases that Sul-Matuul gave you to find out more about the cavern's location and entrance requirements, or you can just read on in this hint file.
  • 2 of 9: The door to the cavern is at location 19 on the Dagoth Ur map. It's going to be quite a journey there, but at least you don't have to worry about any hostiles inside the cavern.
  • 3 of 9: Once you're inside, approach the giant statue and examine its hands.
  • 4 of 9: See that ring? Take it.
  • 5 of 9: That will trigger one of the game's extremely rare non-interactive cut scenes.
  • 6 of 9: The ring is the fabled Moon-and-Star ring, and it's one of your major tokens of being the Nerevarine. Put it on! (It fortifies your Personality attribute and Speechcraft skill by 5 points each, besides being such a powerful symbol of destiny.)
  • 7 of 9: The statue itself (or the deity it represents, rather) gives you your next two major quests, that of being proclaimed Nerevarine by the four major Ashlander camps, and being named Hortator by the three Great Houses.
  • 8 of 9: But before you run off to start on those quests, talk to all the spirits of failed Nerevarines that are now standing about the cavern.
  • 9 of 9: You can get two useful items from each spirit by talking to it. Most of them hand over the goods if you ask about "my story," and the rest give it up for "not the one."
