The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Hints

Misc. Quest: Hannat Zainsubani

  • 1 of 10: To learn about the person that the quest is about, talk to Zainsubani about "life as a trader" and then "Hannat Zainsubani" after getting his notes on the Ashlanders.
  • 2 of 10: The poor kid is currently a prisoner in Mamaea, a Sixth House base at location 14 on the Maar Gan map.
  • 3 of 10: You'll enter the base in the Sanctum of Awakening section. The only thing of note in it is the door to the Sanctum of Black Hope section.
  • 4 of 10: The Sanctum of Black Hope is where Hannat's being held prisoner. (It's also where Dagoth Araynys is hanging out, so watch out for him. You'll almost certainly be killed if he sees you.)
  • 5 of 10: The gates are locked at a very low level, so you can probably easily lockpick them all. However, if you want to, you can find a Dreamer Guard who has a key to most of the gates in the base.
  • 6 of 10: Be sure to kill all the monsters between Hannat's cell and the exit before you talk to him.
  • 7 of 10: When you're ready to lead him out, talk to him about "armed escort" and agree to take him to the cavern entrance.
  • 8 of 10: Fortunately, that's as far as you have to go. He'll part company with you as soon as you're outside, so you don't have to lead him all the way back to Ald'ruhn City.
  • 9 of 10: But do return there yourself sometime and talk to Zainsubani about Hannat again to get a reward of 5 chunks of raw ebony, a magic sword, and a magic ring.
  • 10 of 10: Before you leave Mamaea, though, you'll probably want to fully explore it. The Shrine of Pitted Dreams section has a room with a glowing idol and a woman named Zula in it. It also has a large open box containing some truly cool things, including ebony boots, a unique artifact dagger called Fang of Haynekhtnamet, and a Daedric helm called Face of Inspiration.
