I have done a search on this forum as well as the Dreamcatcher one and can not find where the Shield Relic is located (I'm afraid I may have accidentally sold it to one of the vendors in my desperation for cash). Please let me know the original location before I travel across the land to meet with all the possible buyers. Many appreciations!
Thank you! I must have missed picking it up when I was there. Good to know that quest items can not be sold - that has been a major concern of mine ever since Morrowind.
