|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | I've heard that a famous painter named Rythe Lythandas has gone missing. Apparently, his wife Tivela has been frantically searching for him. Perhaps I should visit their home here in Cheydinhal to see if I can assist with the search. | ||
| 20 | I've met a kindly Dunmer named Tivela Lythandas. It seems that her husband, Rythe, has gone missing. She seems extremely distraught, so perhaps I should talk to her to find out more information. | ||
| 30 | Tivela told me that Rythe had been locked in his studio to work on his latest painting. He usually comes out to eat and sleep, but hadn't done so for more than a day. When she went in to investigate, he was gone. The odd thing was that the study door was still locked. Tivela gave me the key to Rythe's study. If I intend to find him, that's where I should start. | ||
| 35 | I've declined to help Tivela locate her husband, but she said she'd be here if I change my mind. | ||
| 38 | I've reconsidered and decided to help Tivela locate Rythe. She gave me the key to his studio. If I intend to find her husband, that would be the best place to start. | ||
| 40 | After touching the painting Rythe had been working on, I suddenly found myself standing in a strange forest. It looks familiar, like the Great Forest in the heart of Cyrodiil, but something is different about it. | ||
| 50 | I've located Rythe Lythandas. He was standing in this strange forest, seemingly waiting for someone to rescue him. He blames his predicament on a thief. I should continue speaking with Rythe to find out more. | ||
| 55 | I've learned that a thief broke into Rythe's studio and stole his Brush of Truepaint. Using the artifact, he escaped into the painting. He then painted trolls to protect himself, but they turned on their creator and killed him. Now the Brush is on the thief's body, and we can't leave without it. I should take my leave of Rythe for now and begin exploring this surreal forest. | ||
| 60 | I've located the thief's corpse. I should now search it for the Brush of Truepaint. | ||
| 70 | I've retrieved the Brush of Truepaint. I should go back and return it to Rythe, so together we can leave this strange landscape. | ||
| 72 | I've given the Brush of Truepaint to Rythe. He said he could paint an exit and beckoned me to follow him. I should do so. | ||
| 75 | Rythe used the Brush of Truepaint to paint a door back to his studio. I should now step through and return back to Tamriel. | ||
| 80 | We've arrived back in Rythe's home. The painting is now sealed, and Rythe is safe. I should speak to him when I have a moment. | ||
| 100 | ✔ | As a reward for getting him home safely with the Brush of Truepaint, Rythe presented me with a fitting reward; his Apron of Adroitness. | |
| 200 | ✔ | One of the characters needed to complete this quest has died. |
