The resist blind spell you cooked up seemed to be good enough to me. Why won't you use it?

Because things will be super dark. :<

Also I don't even know how powerful the blind effect was there as our resist spell had varying magnitudes. Could either just be a 20% effect or 50% effect or anything in between. I guess if that was 50%, then it might be alright but fuck it if it's 20%. We have no control over that, so we gotta aim for that 100 to 100 magnitude spell. Should just take one more level to have enough magicka for it and maybe a couple of levels to make it easily castable. Such is life.

Let's focus on the Nerevarine questline for a bit, because I have this hunch that we're the dragonborn... Go see what kind of boring quest the mage guild lady has for us, and make sure to join the thieves guild before anything becomes inaccessible.

Try not to do much gamebreaking potion stuff, it's not interesting to win that way. frt

Definitely deliver the info to Caius, he may offer money or items in return.

I'd vote you explore the houses as well. They can be quite diverse in belief, so some research on them might be warranted. I'd never looked into Indoril and Dres, both holding no real presence on Vvardenfell, in my time playing, so I can't properly advise you towards any of them. But definitely see if any catch your eye. Most questlines do have something or other to make them worthwhile.

Ah, right. I do know (Or believe) Indoril is really big in the Mournhold area, so I wasn't sure if you could join it in Tribunal or what.

I'd really like to advise one or the other, cause of late-house-quest rewards, but spoilers.

Hlaalu's starting office is in Balmora, Redoran's is in.. Oh jeez, been so long, place with the huge Shell. Skor, or Skar, or something? No clue where Telvanni's is.

Pick the one in your favorite town!

Can't do Hlaalu quests unless we join House Hlaalu, mate. Unless that was a vote to joining House Hlaalu.
