Problem with the Zainab Ashkhan

Nagroth · Post by **Nagroth** » Mon Dec 09, 2002 1:44 am

Hi ! So, following the main quest, I have become a Hortator of the three Houses and three tribes have named me Nerevarine. However, I have a problem with the Zainab. I can talk to the Ashkhan, but I can´t make him offer me a quest. He´ll just do some small talk. I bribed his sympathy level up to 100, I talked to his wise woman, no avail. What do I have to do so that he offers me a quest ?

Well, I did talk to the wise woman, but she tells me to go straight ahead to the ashkhan because he is so very interested in my exploirs. She never said anything about talking to his retainers.

Just go talk to everyone else anyway...the Ashlander part of the game seems to be the one most easily broken by not doing everything exactly according to plan. You might be able to recover by talking to everyone else...just a thought.

Didn´t work ! Any way to work around this part of the main quest ?

Maybe you can try again. IIRC, you have to talk to the guarherder about a different place to stay. I think the discussion subject had the word 'place' in it. The thing is, because of the blight storms the Zainab tribe is looking for a different camp site a bit further away from the red mountain. And guess who is going to help them? After you have talked about this with the herder, go talk to the wise woman.

I hope this helps, it must be terrible to get stuck in the main quest this way.

ok, heres the deal, may i ask what his disposition is when you talk to him? it needs to be (spoiler) at least,......, dunno how to hide the spoiler, dont see black in the colors selection, and print is black already on the submit form. let me know if ya need it ill e mail

Nagroth · Post by **Nagroth** » Wed Jan 08, 2003 1:19 am

Yeah, I thought about the disposition thing myself, so I bribed him all the way to 100. Didn´t change a thing

@MordorMan : I think you are talking about one of the other Ashlander tribes, I remember doing that. You have to clean out a temple there, where some Ordinators fight with a bunch of Daedra worshippers. Been there, done that.

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought that was the Zianab tribe. It is near impossible to remember all those names in Morrowind and to keep them apart!

I do know how to make a highlightable spoiler, I tried it myself after having seen Uncle Scratchy do it. Black is not in the list but if you use than it will work. Take care to post such a spoiler after a message with a grey background. I don't know what the name of the dark grey background colour is.

Sorry, never gone beyond simple text messages

I'm also having trouble with this. I can't get past the Zainab quest. What are you sopposed to do? What did you guys do to pass the quest? I think I have talked to everyone in the camp, although 2 people are missing (they have houses but they are not anywhere to be found)....

Hmmm

Did u enter the ashkhan's yurt and then talked to him about "Nerevarine" ?
I'm quite sure that he was the one who gave u a quest where u have to kill a vampire.

P.S the wise woman will give u advice on his NEXT quest, after you've done the one mentioned above. (I think)

i spoke to saynari (sp?) in vivec and he gave me the key when I was neverarine of the first tribe and hortator of redoran only. Then I got 'a certain gauntlet' and did the house and tribe quests with the thing on my hands

Please, tell me you found a solution! I'm having the same problem!
I spoke to the women in vivec but she says i'm not recognised as nerevarine by all the tribes ...
maybe the console or the SET Constructions could be of some help??
thanks in advance

Try wearing moon and star. Also this should have spoiler in the title as it gives away part of the story.

Have you done each and every quest in all of the Ashlander tribes, and have they all named you Nevarine?

Also, make sure you have exploited *all* of the conversation topics with the Urshilaku wise woman. There are many, and they branch, which means they can be easy to miss. You'll get *a lot* of journal updates speaking with her, and I have found you need them all in order to be recognised as Nerevarine.

The Balance · Post by **The Balance** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 3:01 pm

yes DW, i've already been recognised nerevarine by all tribes except this (Zainab) moreover, unfortunatly, i have already exploited all the topics with the wise woman in urshilaku, the wise woman in zainab and the ashkhan Kaushad without any new journal update.
perchance can i spawn an item (like "madstone of the ahemmusa") in order to update the journal like i did in the quest of the dwemer puzzle box as it was magically disappeared ?

[QUOTE=Magelord648]Try wearing moon and star. Also this should have spoiler in the title as it gives away part of the story.[/QUOTE]
I always carry the item on my person but it makes no difference..
... and the entire thread is a spoiler! Nagroth should have put *spoiler* in the title of the thread!
(even if the title seems to me very eloquent!)

@The Balance

Non-major Spoilers: Talk to the wise woman. She will tell you to get the Ashkhan exquisite shoes. Get them, give them to him... If that doesn't work then:

Thanks Greg, i'll try it but the wise woman hasn't told me anything about the shoes!
ehm- any idea of where i can find a pair of exquisite shoes

?
I've already tried balmora and ald-ruhn fine clothiers ..
