Sorry for the double post, but I just found a quest I'd never played! Well, not necessarily a quest. I guess I rely too much on the expansions' journal-integrated quest tree nowadays, since I've definitely started this some other time, but never finished. It has no quest entries per se.
It was about offering mazte to this drunken Nord in Vivec, Telvanni Canton to make him tell me about a certain ship burial of an ancient Skyrim king. I spent a good time searching for the site in the area he had described to me. After one wrong cave I actually found the right place, but turned away from it. Finding this shipwreck nearby, I was sure it had to be it. In the ship I was greeted by a Skeleton. No question about it - this was the right place. Finally there were an Ancestral ghost and a dead - Altmer? I think putting this ship right there in the way was intentional by the developers. I fell for it, that's for sure, and absolutely loved it! I wasn't in the right place after all!
So, went to that other place I'd found, and it was awesome as heck (if censored, awesome as:
bliviongate: basically). The long corridor downstairs that constantly turned behind the corner, and
Spoiler - what a tension builder and a surprise - nothing (!)
there in my way, I entered through the next door and found myself... in a labyrinth. I'd never seen such thing in Morrowind, other than in Hircine's Hunt, and that was creepy. I have to say I levitated over it, so I might've spoiled some fun there.
And there it was, behind the next door - the long-awaited price. The scene looked awesome. And no more enemies, just me and my well-deserved unique loot.
I thought this had to be a mod quest, but it isn't. What a find! I'm surprised I hadn't done this before now - I'd definitely offered the guy mazte before. I think there's another quest where you make a guy to talk with "a brandy", but it might've been any brandy. Still I remember starting this one before, but never finishing. Now that I have, it was surely worth it. Very epic stuff for an adventure that technically isn't even a quest!
