10 I heard a rumor that a party of orcs from Orsinium is trying to get across the wall into Dragonstar West.
20 I met a group of Orcs in Dragonstar East who claim to be emissaries of King Gortworg gro-Nagorm, ruler of faraway Orsinium. Their leader, Sharga gra-Bekh, says she was sent to Dragonstar to negotiate the return of King Gortwog's late brother's remains, currently being held at the Temple of Diagna in west Dragonstar. However, the Redguard Crowns have forbidden the diplomat and her party from crossing into the western city.
30 In Dragonstar East, I met a group of emissaries of King Gortworg gro-Nagorm, ruler of faraway Orsinium. Their leader, Sharga gra-Bekh, says she was sent to Dragonstar to negotiate the return of King Gortwog's late brother's remains, currently being held at the Temple of Diagna in west Dragonstar. However, the Redguard Crowns have forbidden the diplomat and her party from crossing into the western city. Sharga had heard of my deeds, and requested my help resolving the situation.
40 Finishes quest☑ I refused to assist the emissary Sharga gra-Bekh in Dragonstar.
50 Restarts quest Sharga gra-Bekh recommended I speak with Prince Alak'tol or Goreius at the Census and Excise Office to negotiate her party's passage through the wall at Dragonstar.
100 Gorelius, the head of the Dragonstar Census and Excise Office, insists that Sharga's diplomatic mission may not proceed into western Dragonstar so long as the Crown government of the western city forbids it.
110 Alak'tol, exiled Prince of Karthwasten and ruler of Dragonstar West, refused to allow the diplomats from Orsinium into his city.
120 Prince Alak'tol refused to speak with me on the matter of Lakush's remains.
130 Prince Alak'tol reluctantly agreed to allow me to represent the Orcs in Dragonstar West, if only to keep the orcs themselves out. He warned me not to make trouble.
140 Although the delegation from Orsinium has been forbidden to pass through the wall, Sharga gro-Bekh promised me a rich reward if I retrieve the remains of Lakush gro-Nagorm from the Temple of Diagna. She gave me a finely crafted Orcish blade to offer the Diagnans in exchange for Lakush's remains.
200 Selim, the leader of the Diagnan cult in Dragonstar, refused to return Lakush gro-Nagorm's remains to the emissaries from Orsinium. He told me that the Diagnans have offered Lakush's skull as tribute to Diagna, Orichalc God of the Sideways Blade, and to retract this offering would be a grave religious offense. Selim also told me that Diagna will soon send an avatar to drive the Nords and Orcs from Redguard lands, and insulted the Orcish blade I offered him.
210 Selim agreed to speak with me about Lakush's remains, since I received authorization from Prince Alak'tol.
220 Selim agreed to hand over Lakush Gro-Nagorm's remains out of gratitude for my assistance retrieving the rare Orichalc weapon Tangra from the Castle Dragonstar vault.
230 Selim agreed to allow me to compete in a contest of martial prowess for the fate of Lakush's remains. Selim seems more than confident that Diagna's champion, a warrior named Igatal, will win the day, but assures me on the honor of his faith that he will allow me to take Lakush's skull if I should prevail.
240 I killed Igatal, champion of Dragonstar's Temple of Diagna, in single combat.
250 Selim kept his promise, and gave me Lakush gro-Nagorm's skull after I defeated Diagna's champion.
300 Finishes quest☑ I brought the skull of Lakush gro-Nagorm to Sharga gra-Bekh. She was very pleased by my success, and paid me for my assistance. Sharga also granted me the fine Orcish blade Selim rejected. Should I ever find myself at King Gotwog's court, Sharga assures me that I will be received with honor.
310 I stole Lakush gro-Nagorm's skull from the Temple of Diagna in Dragonstar.
320 Finishes quest☑ I brought the skull of Lakush gro-Nagorm to Sharga gra-Bekh. She was very pleased by my success, and paid me for my assistance.
