The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints
What service can I do for him?
1 of 9: He'll say that a xivilai named Anaxes has been imprisoned by the "ascended immortals." You're to free the xivilai from their trap.
2 of 9: Anaxes got trapped inside his own lair, which is at location 2 on the Paradise map.
3 of 9: NOTE: If you have trouble finding the Lair of Anaxes, check the game's local map for a red arrow once you get close.
4 of 9: Enter the lair and talk to one of the ascended immortals to learn the story behind the xivilai's imprisonment.
5 of 9: Then head to the back of the cave and check out the boulder that's shaking around.
6 of 9: Anaxes is imprisoned behind it, so look for a way to help him get free.
7 of 9: You see those two logs holding the boulder in place?
8 of 9: Approach and click on each of those logs.
9 of 9: As soon as you get the journal entry saying that Anaxes is free, head for the exit and return to the bridge where you talked to Kathutet.
