Elder Scrolls 4: Shivering Isles Walkthrough

++++++ Part 1 ++++++

You re-found the Fringe, and now you have to MAKE a Gatekeeper. Seems counter- productive at this point. Rest up and bring some snacks.

You will be plopped down in the middle of two skeleton guards. Take them out  and check the chest before you go inside.

There will be two groups of Shambles in both of these starter sections that  have bridges and statues that launch magic at you. Make sure to avoid the magic as you fight. There will be a lone skeleton, and then take the green tunnel on the right. Sneak so that you can snipe the hound, there will be  a zombie called a ‘failed experiment’ in the bone pile, and sneak on the  Flesh Atronach down the path. There will be one dog in the big roon at the end and two more monsters in the room on the left. Kill the dog and then run into  the room and press two sets of buttons that will be underneath each shooting  statue. Now you can go back into the room you avoided, but there are some  urns and an ore deposit if you wish to fight for them. Cross over a bridge and fight one last monster on your way to the next area.

There be one monster in here, and even another free gem on the ground. The  first room on the left is open for your amusement, but I didn’t have the heart to kill the poor thing; you can do whatever you like. Fight the monster down the path (not through the door), and if you fall off the bridge to get the  urn you might want to press that button on the wall to kill off the undead.  Now cross the bridge.

Kill the two monsters and go down the steps. Don’t bother with the door on the left unless you want to fight a zombie, and there is nothing in the other door. Two more monsters guarding the steps down the way, and one urn in the nearby room. On the very bottom level, go inside the left room and press the button to watch a neat little something (read the papers if you must know what is  going on, but it really isn’t exciting). Over across the way will be some free crap, but don’t wake the zombie. Go down the path for another something and then come back and go up the other stairs. A monster up here and a boss level urn. Go into the corpse pit first.

Take the right path and walk until you hit the pit and get ready for a scuffle with some undead. An urn, some dead guys, and then some amber at the end. Come back into the previous area and go into the safe zone.

Lots to look at, lots to steal, and the lady you need to speak to. Just kiss up to her and find that you need to go back to the Gardens of Flesh and Bone to get four items. You can speak with her about victims, and then you can  see what happens if you offer yourself, or not. Leave and do what you must.

**If you follow the conversation lines to defend the prisoners, you will   eventually take a hit from the woman. Get up and talk to her to receive  an item. However, on my game I did not get the item, so go figure.   Also, you only get one shot to do it, or you’ll never get to.**
++++++ Part 2 ++++++

Get to the gates and go behing Passwall to the place where you obtained the  bones to build the Gatekeeper arrows. Enter another dungeon.

Pass the door but wait for the ceiling to fall. A monster waits in the corner and another straight ahead who guards a decent urn. Come back and take the  door to fight another enemy. Go up the ramp to enter the caverns. Pull the lever to open the branches, and then take the left path. One monster in the open room and watch out for the statue’s attack. Next area.

Two monsters in the room, and you have to exit throught the door on the right. Over the steps on the right will be a monster guarding an urn. Proceed through the door and kill an enemy. Then take the left path to a bridge with a loot stump, and then fall down for the first item. Take the path behind you for another monster down the path. You’ll enter another room, but there is only  one path up the ramp where an enemy lurks. Go up to an intersection for another bad guy. Go up the left path for another fight, and then you will have the next item in your sights as well as a stump. Go back a bit and take the  southern road at the intersection; make sure you sneak to avoid any useless  fighting, or whatever. Just get to the next area.

Follow the stanky smell through the cave system, I really don’t have to outline the path. There will be a few enemies along the way, and some you can avoid  altogether. Two Hungers and a chest surround the breath. You will have to touch the stuff twice, once to put the flask inside and again to grab it. Now go out through the only path you got.

A monster is there to greet you. Proceed and turn right at the first turn.  Fight your way along the path set out for you and you’ll end up in a big room with two monsters on the top level, and two more guarding the door to the  blood room. Get the boss chest and press the button that looks at the door to open it, and then just scoop up some blood. There will be another monster  inside and a boss level urn on your way out. A chest in the room guarded by one monster, and another monster in the cave near the exit.

Follow the path, two chests, two monsters, and two doors are in your way to  the exit. Zap back to the old lady in the last dungeon you visited.

Meet her and go into a newly opened section of wall to find the body parts. Oh boy, we get to play dress up! What fun!

There are six sections of the body that you must choose. Here are the ones I say to go with: Helm of Power, Heart of Wound Sharing, Breast of Life, Arm of Slashing, Arm of Shock Shielding, and Legs of Fortitude. Don’t ask, I just  think this combo looks bad as heck! (and I doubt it really matters, whatever monster you make will probably work). Report back to the scientist and then  make your way back to the Fringe. You just follow her instructions from here on out and put all the junk you’ve collected into the pool when she says so; and don’t be afraid to get in, it won’t hurt you. Pretty cool. And now just  sit back and watch the show, enjoy!

Report back to the madgod after what seems like has been forever.

Reward: Summon Flesh Atronach

**Also, if you do the yield command to the Gatekeeper you can gain a certain  power. The powers will be related to what parts you gave the thing.  And you can only have one at a time.**
