The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints
Necromancer's Moon
1 of 10: To get this quest, talk to Polus after finishing his previous quest. (Also ask about advancement to get a promotion and a Robe of the Conjurer.)
2 of 10: He asks you to consult Tar-Meena in the university's Mystic Archives section about the black soul gems you found in Falcar's room during the Cheydinhal recommendation quest.
3 of 10: When you ask Tar-Meena about the evil gems, she'll say that there's relevant info in a book called "Necromancer's Moon," but you'll have to find it yourself.
4 of 10: After you find the book, take it and go talk to Polus about it.
5 of 10: He'll refer you to Bothiel, who's probably in the Arch-Mage's Lobby.
6 of 10: Ask her about the phrase "Shade of the Revenant" to get a note that Falcar dropped when he was speaking to Bothiel about that same subject awhile ago.
7 of 10: Talk to Polus about "Shade of the Revenant" to learn that the Dark Fissure (location 59 on the Nibenay map) is where you need to go next.
