Quest-Related Events

As you reach the Annex's entrance, Scout Merthin will speak:

Scout Merthin: "The cultists … they destroyed the ward and marched right in …."

You have the option of talking to Merthin before you enter the Annnex:

"This whole situation … it's gone roots up faster than a Nord eats pie …."

What happened to you?

"We were trying to get back to the others … avoiding the soldiers as best we could. But we ran right into the cultists.
They wounded me, but I played dead. Watched their scholar-lady work her magic and break the ward. They headed inside, and .…"

Take your time. Then what happened?

"A Wood Elf slipped out of the shadows … but not one of my mates. Said her name was Eveli Sharp-Arrow.
She made sure I wasn't bleeding too badly and went in after the cultists."

Are you going to be all right?

"Don't shake any branches on my account … I just need a moment and then I'll sneak out of this place. Can't say the same about my mates, though.
But if you plan to help Eveli and do something about those cultists … you better get a move on …."
