Quest-Related Events

Doronar can be found next to the stablemaster of Morkul Stronghold:

"You would think the great artisans of Morkul might appreciate a fellow artist. You would be wrong!"

What do you mean?

"I'm studying an eminently misunderstood collection of artists native to Wrothgar. But how am I to complete my provocative companion artwork without the appropriate materials?"

You're studying the art of the Morkul clan?

"What? No, no—the ogres! Their visual arrangement, indiscernible textures, the smells … oh, the smells! Ogres have long realized art should stimulate every sense.
I don't suppose you'd care to help me acquire the necessarily redolent materials?"

All right. Tell me what you need.

"There's an ogre den in a nearby cave called "Morkul Descent". Grab anything ogre-created which has a natural look, feel, or smell.
Bring it all to the House of Orsimer Glories and I'll assemble my artwork!"

What type of art do ogres make?

"I'm not clear, to be honest. It can't be that hard—sticks and twine, maybe a few bones or horns here and there, smashed together with a particularly odoriferous glop!
Nothing I can't manage!"

But why are you specifically interested in ogre artwork?

"Have you met Preparator Noguza at the House of Orsimer Glories? I overheard her mention ogre artwork was something they'd consider displaying.
And if I make the artwork with genuine ogre materials, we both win!"

Once items are collected:

"What an undeniable aroma! Let's see … bones … more bones … a slightly different bone … some sticky goop to hold it all together.
My friend, you have outdone yourself."

Do you really think this will work?

"Have faith! A sculpture begins as a block of stone. A masterful painting? Nothing but canvas on the board.
Time to assemble this for Preparator Noguza. Soon, all shall witness my glorious homage to Wrothgar's Ogres!"

Once placed, the following dialogue can be heard:

Preparator Noguza: "What is … this …?"

Doranar: "Masterpiece? Delivered as promised!"

Preparator Noguza: "What is this mess?"

Doranar: "Mess? But … this is the authentic replication of Ogre artwork, as requested! The materials came straight from an orgre den!"

Preparator Noguza: "But the Bloody Curse, Doranar—It reeks!"

Doranar: "Ah, you understand!"

Preparator Noguza: "I understand the gorge rising in my throat."

Doranar: "It's … perhaps not my best work."

Afterwards:

"My mentor said he could teach me nothing except that "art is a journey." each attempt an experience, regardless of the result, and that experience can often be art itself.
Let's just … let's both agree that's what this is."
