Dialogue

The Ancestral Tombs

You'll find Bradyn overlooking the empty scale of Vvardenfell (except the volcano). Approach him and he'll mention it:

"Have you some to see our wonder in miniature? Our magnificent tribute to Morrowind? Alas, the work is not yet complete. And, truth be told, there is more to our miniature Vvardenfell than simply a representation of our land at a reduced scale."

You're building a model of Vvardenfell?

"Indeed! And once complete, it will point us to the location of the lost Library of Andule, the secret repository of the knowledge of the Great Houses. I just need someone to help me with the legwork, as it were."

What kind of help do you need?

"Well, that's the rub. Literally. The ancient families of Vvardenfell hid the location of the library and then placed clues to find it at their ancestral tombs. I need someone to take rubbings of these clues. Will you help me solve this mystery?"

All right, I'll go and take a rubbing.

He'll then send you on your way. If you already have the ancestral rubbing, you can continue to talk to him:

"I assume you found the tomb without too much trouble. Were you able to take the rubbing as I directed?"

Here's the rubbing from the Othrelas ^{verify it's Othrelas tomb every time} Ancestral Tomb.

"The model of Vvardenfell progresses nicely, but we still have a long way to go to fill in all the notable landmarks and uncover the location of the lost Library of Andule."

What happens next?

"This is perfect! Now prepare yourself. What happens next will be simply amazing! Thanks to magic provided by Lord Vivec, I can use this rubbing to not only record the clue provided by the tomb, I can add a new section to our model of the land."

All right, I'm ready.

The world will turn black as Bradyn works his spell. When your vision returns, a new section of the model will appear, based on the landscape surrounding the ancestral tomb. Speak with him again.

"The model of Vvardenfell progresses nicely, but we still have a long way to go to fill in all the notable landmarks and uncover the location of the lost Library of Andule."

How can I help you complete the rest of the model?

"My research indicated that thirty of your most revered families each left a clue to the location of the Library of Andule.
Find the remaining twenty-nine tombs, take rubbings, and before long our model will be complete and the location revealed."

Bradyn will then gift you the Explorer's Comfortable Shoes and a leveled amount of gold.

As you collect more rubbings, you may return them to him in the Library. He'll be patiently waiting in the library, admiring his work thus far.

"As you recover more rubbings, return here to me. With every detail we add to our model, the closer we get to discovering the location of the lost library! I prepared a list of the tombs you need to find. Refer to the note as you conduct your search."

If you have a new rubbing, you'll have the option to say:

I have a new rubbing for you.

"Wonderful! I'll decipher its portion of the clues and finalize the associated section of the diorama at once!"

The Lost Library

When you finally have all 30 rubbings and the model is nearing completion, Bradyn will be overjoyed.

Librarian Bradyn: "Welldone, outlanders. Welldone!"

"Our miniature model is nearly complete, my friend! All that remains is a single component - and that's the key to everything!"

Do you know how to find the lost Library of Andule now?

"Indubitably, thanks to your efforts. Every rubbing you brought back not only helped complete the model, but it also provided another clue as to the location of the lost library. What isn't present is the key!"

What do you mean, what isn't present?

"That gap in the model - that's where we'll find the lost Library of Andule! Once you go and locate the exact spot, we can start examining the records related to our earliest Velothi settlers.
What do you say? Ready for one more adventure?"

All right. I'll go the location indicated on the model and see what I can find.

Speaking to him again before leaving:

"Study the gap in the model and go to that location in Vvardenfell. If the lost Library of Andule still exists, that's where we'll find it!"

When you return from the library with the ancient books:

"Was the Library iof Andule in the location revealed by our model? And was it filled with ancient knowledge once thought lost?"

I found the lost library and retrieved these genealogies for you to examine.

"You recovered the lost genealogies of the Great Houses? Why, these date back to before the War of the First Council. Remarkable!
You have done a great service for this library and all of Morrowind, outlander."

What do the genealogies tell you?

"Nothing yet! I need to catalog them, study the ancient script, and make suitable translations. But given time, the Great Houses will see the value in this project and reward our efforts accordingly.
In the meantime, take this with my gratitude."

Speaking to him a final time:

"Between our detailed model, the genealogies, and the other tomes of knowledge discovered in the lost Library of Andule, the Dunmer shall gain a better understanding of the Great Houses and where we all came from.
Thanks to you, my friend."
