Quest-Related Events

As you approach her, you may hear Legionary Jaida call out to you.

"Fight for the Weald!"

If this is the first time you have spoken to her, she will have a unique greeting and explanation:

"A wandering adventurer? You're exactly what I'm looking for. The West Weald Legion is in sore need of anyone who has the courage, skill, and determination to deal with a dire threat."

What's going on?

"West Weald is under attack! Daedric incursions from a realm called Mirrormoor are laying waste to the countryside. As soon as the West Weald Legion repels one incursion, Mirrormoor's forces launch a new one somewhere else.
We need help."

What do you need me to do?

"Join forces with like-minded adventurers and fight off any Mirrormoor incursions you encounter. It's dangerous, but the Legion pays well. Just remember to defeat the incursion leader and you'll repel the attack.
Can we count on you?"

All right. I'll help fight off a Mirrormoor incursion.

Subsequent times after you completed her quest for the first time, she will say:

"If you're looking for more work, Onsi knows I have plenty to share. The West Weald Legion is trying to keep up, but we're outnumbered. Perhaps even overmatched."

"Ah, you're back! The West Weald Legion could use your help again, adventurer. The battle against the Daedra invading our world does not go well."

"I'm pleased to see you, hero. The Daedra of Mirrormoor continue to attack West Weald. If you're willing to help out, I can promise you another battle. And another reward."

After you accepted her quest, she will either say:

"Onsi be praised! It shouldn't take you long to find an incursion.
You must defeat the Mirrormoor champion leading the attack to repel its incursion. But first, you must eliminate the Shardborn valkynazes who protect it. Good hunting, hero!"

"We've learned that you must defeat a powerful Mirrormoor champion to repel an incursion. Be warned: You can't overcome the champion until you kill the Shardborn valkynazes shielding it.
Report back after you stop an incursion. And good luck!"

"Follow the sounds of fighting—you'll find an incursion soon enough.
Defeat the Mirrormoor champion leading the attack, and you defeat its incursion. But first, you need to kill the Shardborn valkynazes protecting the champion. Good luck!"

You can then ask some questions:

Can you tell me more about how to defeat a Mirrormoor incursion?

"A wise question. Preparation is a keen blade in battle!
We have observed that each incursion begins with the arrival of a fearsome Mirrormoor champion who anchors the incursion to our world. Defeat the champion and the incursion fails."

So all I have to do is find the Mirrormoor champion and kill it?

"There is a complication. Three Shardborn valkynazes accompany each champion. The valkynazes spread out, shielding the champion while they summon minions. Before you can attack the champion, you must defeat the valkynazes who protect it."

Anything else?

"The Mirrormoor champion and their valkynazes are powerful foes indeed—too much for any single adventurer. It would be wise to avoid battle until you have others at your side.
There is no honor in failing alone."

What's Mirrormoor? Why is this happening?

"I wish we knew. Mirrormoor must be a Daedric realm, since the incursions are made up of Daedric monsters and Shardborn warriors. That's what the Dremora we meet in battle call themselves, anyway. The Legion's mages have never heard of them."

So why are they here now?

"Our mages speculate that some long-lost plane of Oblivion has come into conjunction with our world. Doors sealed shut for ages are now open, so Mirrormoor's forces seized the opportunity to invade.
Whatever they want, it's up to us to stop them."

After you have helped stop a Mirrormoor Incursion, you can return to Legionary Jaida, who will greet you with one of the following:

"Ah, you return! Do you come bearing a report of victory, adventurer?"

"Onsi be praised! You return on your feet, not on a stretcher. Tell me, adventurer, were you successful?"

"It is said that Onsi sets a light in the face and a spring in the stride of a victorious warrior. If I am not mistaken, that is what I see now.
How did you fare, hero?"

I helped defeat a Mirrormoor incursion.

"Excellent work, adventurer! I knew we could count on you. Each Daedric incursion we defeat brings us one step closer to victory in this strange war.
Here, you earned this reward. And the gratitude of the West Weald Legion."

When there is no work for the day, she will tell you one of the following:

"I wish I could send you straight out to deal with another Mirromoor incursion, but I can't offer you more work right now. Check back soon, though—I have a feeling the Daedra aren't done with us yet."

"An Imperial Legion feeds on paperwork, hero. We both know perfectly well that we need fighters like you out in the field, but I'm not authorized to hire any more adventurers today.
Try again tomorrow."

"I can see you're ready for another round with Mirrormoor's forces. Unfortunately, I can't hire you on at this moment. Check back again later, hero."

Dialogue

Once you have completed one of her daily missions for the first time, you will be able to ask her some questions:

What's your role in the West Weald Legion?

"You mean, why am I recruiting adventurers to help the Legion instead of fighting on the line myself? I have experience with Daedric troubles, so I know what skills we're looking for to stop the Mirrormoor incursions.
I don't hire just anybody."

Do a lot of legionaries have experience with Daedra?

"It's rare, yes. However, legionaries come from all backgrounds. My own involved an education in matters most Redguards do not care to study. Magic, Daedric relics, and other such things. I could not go home after that. But the Legion took me in."

I sense something familiar about you.

"Shh! All my comrades know about my past is that I studied in distant lands. I do not care to have them speculating about my loyalties.
Are you Psijic? I do not recall seeing you around Ceporah Tower."

I am, but I travel a lot.

"Many of us do. I am loyal to the Legion, of course. But I do what I can to make sure the Order remains well informed about events in Imperial lands.
The less we speak of that, the better. My comrades would not understand."

Sorry. I don't know what you're talking about.

"Then let us speak of this no more. Be on your way, adventurer. And stay ready—I'm sure the Legion will have need of your talents again."
