Which Spirit did your character see during the Imperial New Life Quest?

Ekzorka

Another one interesting thing about this quest: first, this is the most lore-ish quest from all New Life dailies because New Life in Tamriel isn't the same as Christmas/New Year celebrations on Earth.
Second, due we sending a message to Aetherius we have to get an "answer" from those whose souls went to Aetherius.

That's why we don't have to see some characters like Kassandra or Leythen because their souls are actually in Hist or Oblivion.

But if Oblivion souls could take a such messages, well, this will be interesting.

I didn't see ANYONE on several characters. I was alone for many of these and looked around, but nothing else was there.

same here, done at least 20 times, with different characters, two have finished the main story and cadwell gold . how stupid is that, some get to see every day others none at all. so bad design.

The whole point was that Kassandra was disconnected from the Hist, no?
And I never completely understood what happened to Leythen, what "being lost in nothingness between realities" means, but resting in Aetherius sounds like a much better option, so I'm not questioning that one

Edit:

But Leythen did say that he will go to his and Val's daughter and they will wait for her, so, I guess it counted like "normal" death

I monitored this thread, and I really wanted to see

Abnur Tharn

here, cause this would mean he won't return next year (or ever) He's one of my least liked characters.

So far I've seen all the same ghosts as everyone here, nothing new.
The only character whose death made me really sad is luckily not in the list of ghosts, probably because "there is no death in the Hist. We rise and fall like the sun - gone for a time, but always soon to return." She is leading the lost tribe down the River of Rebirth I really like to hope that this story will be finished someday in some side quest depending on player's choice, because:

ThePlayer

I saw this 1, is that normal?

Who is this, please?

Is this kali?

Thank you.

p.s. anyone answering, "a bear", will have their still-beating heart fed to a Wamasu with the flux.

I thought I got a spirit, but it was just the pizza delivery guy

Finedaible

I'm kinda surprised Sir Hughes did not make an appearance to anyone.

Nirntrotter

King Kurog for me.

I may, may have cried during a few quests while completing My Great Tamriel Adventure and two of them were definitely in Murkmire. One of them was this.

Also, I agree with you. I need confirmation that I will never see

Abnur Tharn, or any miserable Tharn for that matter, ever ever ever again

cyclonus11

I like Abnur Tharn. His biting wit is a much needed deviation from the bland cookie-cutter personalities in this game.

There are a lot of witty characters, Abnur was just an arse.

Haven't seen a single one on any character, even when they've done the relevant quests.

Maybe some kind of graphics setting?

amapola76

I swear to God this whole thread has me feeling like I'm being punked.

I've run this quest dozens of times now, on various alts, both NA and EU, and I have yet to see a single thing.

barney2525

Abner knows he is a jerk, which is part of his charm, and his motives are generally good.

When he is told 'Your sister wants to kill you', his response - 'I have that effect on people. Especially my relatives'

So, he is not in some delusion of grandeur.

IMHO

Agreed. It was a refreshing change of pace to have a good guy character that wasn't so obviously a good dude. He's a less black and white character than many of the other more prominent main characters and it makes him interesting.

They're not there for very long, they just fade in and then fade away - some long enough to bow, but others don't. If you're in 1st person I could see why you may not see them

@Nairinhe

Before her death Kassandra shout that she's finally hear a Hist, so she's somehow bound herself with the Hist.

Leythen was a servant of Mephala. No matter how he died or do he denied to serve to Daedra, his soul belongs to Mephala. His last words could be a lie to calm Valsirenn or even himself.

I may need to refresh my memory on some storylines, then. But maybe she heard the Hist and the Hist told her to heck off? (jk)

As for servants of the Daedra, Veya was Nocturnal's champion and we still see her as one of the ghosts. Power of Christmas New Life magic then, I guess.

I saw him too, but I thought he is still alive. In the main plot I decided to kill someone else. Strange...

cHIIMEERa

I cleared all content on PC and then ported over to ps4 some years ago. I saw no one

Yeah, but then I'd be a sheeple. LOL

Today I finally got

The Prophet

I certainly remember a lot more folks dying in my presence...

I've gotten

Veya

every day since. It's kinda lame now.

FrancisCrawford

I finally saw one, after I did Old Life again with my landscape main.

Good choice, too -- it was the obvious one from Reaper's March. (I'll leave it that vague for reasons of spoiler.)

Chaos2088

Got the ayleid elf king from cold harbour zone.

wheresbes

I got

Little Leaf

and I had to look her up as I didn't remember who she was

I really hoped to get

Tanval Indoril

if that's even possible as I loved that part of the EP questline.
