Lashgikh has summoned Malacath

I found Lashgikh within the tunnels of Obsidian Scar. She claims she and her husband, Esmaeel, were kidnapped by the Oathbound, at the behest of an Orc named Osgrikh. She managed to escape, but needs help rescuing her husband.

Quick Walkthrough

1. Talk to Lashgikh.
2. Find Esmaeel.
3. Kill and behead Larzgug and Thrug.
4. Wait for Lashgikh to summon Malacath.
5. Defeat Osgrikh.

Detailed Walkthrough

Shortly after entering the Obsidian Scar, you meet an injured Orc named Lashgikh who needs your help. She left her clan and married a Redguard named Esmaeel, but the stronghold prince was angered at losing a potential bride. Osgrikh swore a blood oath to Malacath and had Lashgikh and her husband kidnapped by a cult called the Oathbound. Lashgikh needs you to help locate her husband. She will become a follower.

Fight your way to the first small room off the southeast hallway. There you will find Esmaeel's body and, upon examination, confirm to Lashgikh that he is dead. Lashgikh will angrily declare that she has no choice but to avenge him by making a blood oath of her own. She will use Osgrikh's siblings in her ritual as payback.

Head north to the ritual chamber and then west up the stairs. Locate Thrug at the top, kill him, and loot Thrug's Head. Then keep heading west via either the north or south hallway until you reach the largest chamber. Larzgug can be fought and beheaded on the bottom floor in the southwest corner of the room. Loot Larzgug's Head.

Speak to Lashgikh to hear that you have everything now and just need to find the Oathbound's dais where they worship Malacath. She will run ahead and disappear. Fight your way back to the ritual chamber in the northeast corner of the map. Speak to Lashgikh who is standing at the altar. She tells you to place a head on each of the pikes surrounding the altar, and then she will swear an oath of vengeance to Malacath, asking that Osgrikh be brought to you. She is unsure how Malacath will respond.

Place the heads and listen to Lashgikh's oath as a red sigil lights up on the altar. You will see a shadowy avatar of Malacath appear on the dais. He will agree to satisfy Lashgikh's anger by bringing Osgrikh to you. Malacath will then disappear, and a fiery portal will open up in his place. When the portal vanishes, you will see Osgrikh. Lashgikh will attack him. Help her finish him off.

Head up the stairs and out of the doorway on the west wall. You will see Lashgikh standing at a table. Speak to her to hear about her relief at honoring her husband and her plans to face the stronghold with fury when they come for her. She will reward you and end the quest.

Notes

• Esmaeel will not exist within the dungeon before starting the quest.
• Larzgug and Thrug will exist inside prior to starting the quest or reaching the related objective to kill and behead them.

Notes

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
