The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints

What about the fourth volume?

  • 1 of 12: First, get volume 3.
  • 2 of 12: However you obtain volume 3, you'll need to talk to Gwinas about volume 4 to get a note telling how he was going to obtain it.
  • 3 of 12: NOTE: If you miss Gwinas at the shop, you can find him in the Tiber Septim Hotel in the Talos Plaza District.
  • 4 of 12: Either return to the boarding house in the Elven Gardens District and wait for Baurus to show up, or wait around somewhere else for him to find you. (Note that he's marked on the map with a quest marker, making him easy to track.)
  • 5 of 12: Tell him about the meeting that the note mentions.
  • 6 of 12: Follow him outside and into the sewers through a grate.
  • 7 of 12: Continue following him and helping him kill sewer critters and leveled goblins until you reach two doors to the Sunken Sewers.
  • 8 of 12: You can then choose to be the one to meet the Mythic Dawn sponsor, or the one who acts as a hidden backup.
  • 9 of 12: If you're the backup guy as Baurus recommends, go up the nearby stone steps and through the door at their top, then stay out of sight while Baurus meets with the sponsor.
  • 10 of 12: If you're meeting with the sponsor, Baurus will go through the upper door, and you'll use the lower one. Sit on the chair at the table and wait for the sponsor guy to show up and start talking to you.
  • 11 of 12: Either way, the person who's hiding upstairs will be detected, and you and Baurus will have to fight three Mythic Dawn guys.
  • 12 of 12: After the battle is over, search Raven Camoran's body to find valuable items, including volume 4 of the Mythic Dawn Commentary book series.
