Quest-Related Events

While searching in the moors, you'll come across a young elf maid:

Elsenia: "You there. You're searching for me, aren't you? Let us speak quickly. I don't have much time."

Speaking to her:

"I know you're looking for me. I'm showing myself to tell you to leave. Tell Thorinor you found me dead. It'll be true enough soon.
I'm going to end my life before I turn."

What do you mean "turn"?

"I was out gathering fungi when the mist suddenly took on a strange hue. The next thing I remember is waking up in a dark place, surrounded by strange Bosmer with glowing eyes. They told me I'd be one of them soon. It's true. I can feel it."

So what will you do now?

"I don't know. I've seen my husband out here, calling for me. I keep myself hidden because I don't want him to see.
I can't go home like this. When I turn …. Just leave me. I'll end it soon. I just want to watch the sea a bit longer."

What about a cure?

"A cure for this? Ha. You mean like the potions the Wild Witch brews in children's stories?"

Who is the Wild Witch?

"It's said her hovel appears and disappears at her whim, and that she could brew potions to cure any ailment. It's been a long time since I heard that story. And that's all it is. A story.
I'm going now. Please don't look for me again."

Once you've obtained a cure, she'll appear again:

"You again? Please, I have nothing more to say about it."

I found the Wild Witch. She made this antidote for you.

"I'm already suffering enough without you making a mockery of me. I just started thinking about my childhood now that my life is over, that's all. I liked those stories. Even if that's all they were. Children's tales."

Just drink this.

"Blech. Tastes like bugs."

You should feel it already. Like I said, you're cured. You can go home now.

"I do … I do feel somewhat warmer. More myself. Less cloudy.
But what if they come for me again? I feel like they were in my mind. Always watching."

The vampires are gone. I destroyed them.

"I see. I noticed the mist had changed. I thought it was only my changed eyes embracing its corruption.
Thank you for this. I thought it was hopeless, but now I can return home to Thorinor."

Go home to him. He needs you.

"I will. I can't wait to see him again.
Please, take this. It isn't much, for I could never repay what you've done for me, but I hope it will suffice."

If you exit out of the conversation before turning in the quest, she will alternatively say:

"You saved my life. For that I will always be grateful."

You're welcome. Now, go back to your husband. (Lead to quest completion dialogue)

After the quest when speaking to her:

"Thank you once again for what you did. Let's not speak of the details. Thorinor has worried enough as it is. You brought us back together, and that's all that matters to us."

Notes

• Despite having been cured, Elsenia's coloring and red eyes do not change and will forever have the appearance of a vampire.
