Fatahala

Fatahala will initially appear as an Altmer found along the road near the Manor of Revelry in Coldharbour. She will be looking for someone to rescue Stibbons from the Manor.

She claims to be a worshipper of Meridia and a survivor from the city when it was brought to the Oblivion plane. Fatahala wandered until she came upon the manor and was subsequently tormented by the sisters by making her watch them trick and consume countless people.

As you break through the Manor's illusions, you will learn the truth—Fatahala is also a Dark Seducer, though one loyal to Meridia.

Once you have successfully rescued Stibbons, she will lead him back to the City.

Quest-Related Events

As you approach her she will cry out:

"I can't let this happen again. Not again!"

You can talk to her to see what is wrong.

"I can't bear to watch someone die again. Oh, Stibbons, that poor, poor man!"

Is someone in trouble here?

"This manor, it's not what it seems. And now poor Stibbons has been caught in its embrace. Without help, he will surely die, just like the others.
It will be dangerous, but perhaps you can go inside and convince him to leave before it's too late."

I'll speak to Stibbons.

After you agree to help, she will turn around and enter the Manor.

Once you have entered the Manor and spoken with Stibbons, you can find Fatahala hanging around the banquet area.

If you still haven't started the quest yet and approach her:

"Please you must help me save Stibbons."

If you started the quest inside the manor before finding Stibbons:

"Don't let your eyes deceive you. They trick your senses and tempt your soul."

If you talk to her, she will try and warn you about the Manor's allure.

"Be careful. Your eyes will play tricks on you in this place and you'll need to pay attention to save Stibbons."

What do you mean?

"You need to keep your wits about you. Stibbons has already accepted the illusion and slipped beyond reason.
Pay attention and you may save him yet."

Who are you and why do you care about Stibbons?

"I was in Meridia's city the day she plunged it into Coldharbour. Like many, I was lost and alone in the wilderness. Then I found this manor.
When the sisters discovered that I was a servant of Meridia, they decided to torment me for eternity."

How do they torment you?

"The sisters find it amusing to watch me fret over their meals. But Stibbons has a good heart. He doesn't deserve the fate they have planned for him.
The sisters hope to turn me to their side eventually, but they never will. My faith is too strong."

After you eat at the banquet at get a glimpse of the truth, Fatahala will recognize that you saw something.

"There is something different about you. I knew it! You saw through the illusion, didn't you?"

What do you mean?

"Nuzara, Rayyaima, and Shayaifa rule here through the use of deception and illusion. You saw though the illusion, at least briefly.
You're different from Stibbons. You can save him!"

Who are you and why do you care about Stibbons? (Copy of above dialogue)

Speaking to her again before going to the pool:

"Keep your wits about you. Things are not as they appear."

Once you follow Stibbons to the baths and talk with Shayaifa, Fatahala will be waiting for you as you approach the pool.

"Shayaifa is trying to deceive you. If you listen to me and do exactly what I tell you, I'll help you see through their illusions."

How can you help me?

"Take these Cleansing Reagents and go to the pools. Place the reagents in the basin. They will break through the illusion and let you see the manor as it truly is.
Once this occurs, you will be in mortal danger. The sisters prefer their meals happy and deceived."

Before you pour the reagents, you can speak to her again:

"Pour the Cleansing Reagents into the basin and prepare yourself. The truth of this place can be disturbing.
And be careful. Once the illusion breaks, you will be in danger."

Fatahala's true form

When you pour the reagents into the basin, you will see things as they truly are. The Manor Guests are revealed to be skeletons, and Fatahala herself will look very different. She will also be upset.

"Did it work? Yes, I can see it in your eyes! Now you can see things as they really are."

What happened to Stibbons?

"Stibbons went up to the manor hand-in-hand with Shayaifa. I tried to warn him, but he ignored me.
You've got to save him!"

What happened to you?

"You can see though the illusion now. This is how I actually appear.
For all their power, the sisters couldn't truly harm me as long as I serve Meridia."

If you talk to her after she tells you about Stibbons, she will shout:

"Enter the manor and find Stibbons! You've got to hurry before it's too late!"

After you find Stibbons and release him from the cage on the top floor, Fatahala will enter the room, relieved to see him safe.

Fatahala: "Stibbons! Thank the Radiant Mother you're all right. When I saw Rayyaima with your jewels, I feared the worst!"

Stibbons: "All right? How can you say that? They have my dear Lady Laurent's jewels! She will be quite distraught if I don't retrieve them."

Fatahala: "At least you're alive. That's something! I know a secret tunnel by the pools. I can lead you there while our friend fetches your ladies jewelry. What do you think?"

If you speak to her before Stibbons, she will say:

"What a stubborn, pig-headed fool Stibbons is! Can you talk some sense into him?"

After you talk to Stibbons and agree to find the jewels, she will say:

"I'll lead Stibbons to the exit. Find his lady's jewels and meet us there."

When you meet them at the entrance to the tunnel she will comment on Stibbons' abilities.

"Stibbons is kind of clumsy. He tripped and stumbled six times on the way down here. It's a wonder we weren't spotted."

While in the caves, Stibbons will become your follower and Fatahala will ask you to look out for him.

"Stibbons really wants to be a hero. Please help him so he doesn't get himself killed."

Once you have fought your way through the tunnel, Fatahala and Stibbons will be waiting outside.

"I never thought that nightmare was going to end. Thank you for helping us."

After the quest, she will lead Stibbons back to the Hollow City.

Notes

• The quest's journal note describes Fatahala as a Soul-Shriven. This is incorrect.
