Sanctify warriors' bodies to release their spirits

Someone has summoned a Daedra known as Ghemvas the Harbinger to southern Blackwood. Locals say the Ruinach slays any who approach its lair and reaps their souls. I agreed to defeat Ghemvas and sanctify the bodies of its victims.

Quick Walkthrough

1. Go to The Shattered Xanmeer.
2. Defeat Ghemvas the Harbinger and sanctify 3 fallen bodies.
3. Speak with Britta Silanus in Leyawiin.

Detailed Walkthrough

Receive the quest from the daily job broker, Britta Silanus, in Leyawiin. After starting the quest, head to The Shattered Xanmeer in southeastern Blackwood. The Stonewastes Wayshrine is the closest and to the northeast of the location. When Ghemvas the Harbinger has spawned, you and your allies can fight and defeat the Ruinach. During the fight, be aware of Ghemvas' numerous additional spawns, which include the Kynreeve of Embers, Kynreeve of Scorching, Kynreeve of Wildfire, and Portal to the Deadlands, which itself spawns Daedroth and Flames of Dagon.

The second part of the quest is to use the Sanctifying Oil given to you by Britta to sanctify the bodies of three Warriors. The body of a female Imperial warrior is behind a pillar in the northeast part of the ruins, the body of an Argonian warrior is on the shore southwest of the area, and the body of a male Imperial warrior is to the south near a boulder and puddle. As you pour oil over them, their freed spirits will appear briefly and bow their heads in thanks. Once you have defeated the boss and freed all three spirits, head back to Britta Silanus in Leyawiin:

Ghemvas the Harbinger has been destroyed. And the souls of the fallen are free.

"I thank you. It was a grim and dangerous task I gave you, but it has to be done. The families of those Ghemvas killed will be glad to know those souls are at peace.
Take this, with our gratitude. We'll have more work for you soon."

Notes

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.

• 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.
