What's the pledge today?

"Fungal Grotto! A Dark Elf spider cult found some Daedric shrine in its depths and made themselves at home. It'll take fire and steel to clear them out of there now.
Not afraid of a few extra legs, are you?"

And if I can handle more?

"Their leader, Vila Theran, is a nasty piece of work. If you can best her dark magic without cowering behind the protections of the Obsidian Husk, you'll truly be Undaunted."

I pledge to explore Fungal Grotto and return Undaunted.

Once you have accepted the quest, you can enter the Fungal Grotto II dungeon either by accessing the dungeon through the Dungeon Finder, or heading to Stonefalls and entering the dungeon there with a group. You have the choice of entering the normal dungeon or the veteran version, this choice will affect if you can achieve the optional step and your rewards.

When inside the dungeon, you will need to progress through the dungeon, slaying the following bosses, Gamyne Bandu, Spawn of Mephala and Vila Theran. With the last boss, if you are in the veteran dungeon, you have the option of completing the optional task of defeating Theran without using the Obsidian Husk by entering its aura.

Once you have completed the task, you can return to Maj al-Ragath at any of the Undaunted Enclaves, and speak with her to complete the quest:

"You're back! All finished knocking some sense into those loony spider worshipers?"

The cult leader is dead.

"You ever wonder about the way these summoners think? "I have a problem in life. I know! Daedra will solve it!" Just doesn't make a lot of sense to me."

Me either. What of my reward? / What have I earned for destroying the Spider Cult?

Condition	Dialogue
Normal mode completed	"Take your key! And use your cut at a tavern tonight! You deserve a warm fire, a dark drink, and some friendly companionship. Hah!"
Veteran mode completed	"Cultists are some of the peskiest vermin to be rid of. Your cut will reflect that. Take your key and return tomorrow! We'll find you something more exciting than clearing cobwebs."
Veteran Hard Mode completed	"You stood your ground, Undaunted. For refusing to budge in the face of Vila Theran's dark magic, you have my esteem. Take your key and your cut. Tomorrow I'll give you another opportunity to impress me!"

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
