Daggerfall:Main Quest Walkthrough

Introduction

"Rest well this night, for tomorrow you sail for the Kingdom of Daggerfall."

Daggerfall starts out with these words, of the Emperor sending you to the Daggerfall region of High Rock to investigate the death of King Lysandus. Lysandus was loyal to the Emperor, as was his wife Mynisera. However, his murder has complicated the troublesome Iliac Bay. A letter from the Emperor has been lost and the ghost of Lysandus haunts the city of Daggerfall. However, your journey is complicated by an item of power that is now known to all the nobility in the Iliac Bay. Now it is a race to see who can get it.

In this journey, you will be forced to make many choices as to who will benefit from your deeds. A word of warning, the governments and factions of Daggerfall are not above sending assassins at those they have quarrels with. Choose your affiliations well. To be brief, the six groups you will be dealing with in the Main Quest is the Nobility of Daggerfall, Wayrest, and Sentinel along with Gortwog of Orsinium, the King of Worms and his faction of Necromancers, and the mysterious Underking. How you treat these leaders will shape the ending of the Main Quest.
