Aralyon the Scholar

Aralyon the Scholar is a High Elf studying Daedric ruins east of the town of Narsis. Despite warning travelers against the Daedra residing in Knife Ear Grotto, he is perfectly willing to accept artifacts from adventurers with the skill and bravery to explore the ruins.

Quest-Related Events

Outside of Knife Ear Grotto, you will find a note penned by Aralyon. In his note, the scholar warns of the Daedra occupying the ruin while simultaneously urging intrepid adventurers to bring him any valuable artifacts found within. After you have recovered the Daedric Artifact guarded by Drulshasa, you may take Aralyon up on his offer.

After arriving at the shrine east of Narsis, you will find the excitable Altmer scholar taking notes on the ruins. When you approach him, it becomes clear that he is somewhat overwhelmed by his surroundings:

"What's this Daedric ruin doing here? What's its purpose?
Oh gods, is that blood coming out of my ear?"

I found your note and an artifact you might be interested in.

"Oh good! This is a very rare Daedric beard pot. Massive Dremora would wear these suspended by chains around their necks to protect their lustrous beards.
Isn't it fascinating? Here's your reward."

He will then give you a small amount of leveled gold for your delivery of the artifact.

Dialogue

If you speak to him before accepting the quest, he greets you the same as if you had the quest:

"What's this Daedric ruin doing here? What's its purpose?
Oh gods, is that blood coming out of my ear?"

If you choose to speak with Aralyon after handing over the artifact, he will further express his enthusiasm on the subject:

"I should be able to write three—no, no, five—scholarly dissertations about this Dremora beard pot. They'll make for fascinating reading!"
