The Skyrim game is distinguished by its atmosphere, and especially by quests and bugs. Let's get down to business, to completing a mission to extract a rare artifact. First, let’s figure out what needs to be done so that the quest starts.
As a result, we will be waiting for a special artifact called "The Black Star of Azura" with an infinite amount of use, also the ingredients are the heart of the Daedra in the amount of three pieces.
What is Azura Star
This is an ancient artifact of a daedra, an endless stone of souls, contains any souls of different sizes, while it does not disappear, it simply becomes empty.
Passage of the quest: "Black Star" in Skyrim
- First you need to reach the eighth level, look more often at taverns in different cities, we need to ask the bartenders about new gossip.
- At some point, one of the tavern owners will tell about the dark elves who arrived from Morrowind and built the Azura Temple in Skyrim.
- The quest has begun, go to the marker and find the sanctuary of Azura. In addition to this method, there are two more.
- Meet the dark pilgrim elf.
- Self-search for the statue.
- We go to the mountain, it is very high and strewn with snow, next to Winterhold. There you will see the priestess Arania Yenith.
- We rise to the statue and speak with the priestess Arania Yenit. She will say that she will have to return to Winterhold to speak with an altmer named Nelsar. He is in the Frozen Hearth tavern.
You can use the method described at the end, where for Skyrim "Black Star of Azura" id is already specified: you can enter it and get it calmly without completing the task.
- We’ll have to get information from Nelsar. Fortunately, Skyrim is a role-playing game where you can be persuaded or intimidated. In this case, we select one of the options for extracting information, after which it will mark the dungeon on the map - the Depths of Illinalta.
- We pass the mission "Black Star Skyrim" on. We will defeat many aggressive inhabitants in the indicated place, and there will be a large number of necromancers, we need equipment to protect against magic.
- At the end of the location, we will encounter the skeleton of Meilin Varen who will have the Azura Star, she is also the Black Star of Skyrim.
- The next step is to complete the quest with different ends. In one case, we can return to the nun or go to the magician in the tavern. In the case of the choice of the priestess, we will receive the Star of Azura, which will not have functionality. In the case of Nelasar, we get a working version of the Star of Azura, the Black Star.
- For the sake of ending, you will need to go through a ritual. Our hero will be moved inside the stone. Inside there are very strong Dremora marquinases - without elixirs that reduce damage, and no other protection can be done. Our goal is Meilin’s soul. Kill him or not, you decide. If you kill, we will get the heart of the daedron, but this will not affect the quest.
Notes
- Sometimes attacks of necromancers will occur. On their bodies will be an explanation of these attacks - revenge for the murder of Meilin Waren.
- It is better to choose the ending where you get the Black Star. Useful for enchanters.
- You can cheat, if after a conversation to go attack on Meilin Varen.
- Meilin Varen's soul can be swallowed into a black stone of souls, which will lead his soul to imprisonment, but in the end Nelasar will say that she found peace.
- Oblivion’s Gates to increase the skill of destruction are on the table next to two necromancers.
- Look for books, there is usually a lot of interesting things, one of them tells about the search for this artifact. Spoiler: it all ended badly.
