[edit] Pilgrimages of the Seven Graces

Any of the Tribunal Temple quest givers will give you this quest just after you join. In order to receive any more quests from the Temple, you must first perform the Pilgrimages of the Seven Graces, visiting seven shrines across the island. Though none of the quests are particularly difficult, a good deal of travelling throughout the western portion of the map is required. You must visit and activate each shrine, which require you to provide a certain item for each one. You should be given the book The Pilgrim's Path which has a rather thorough description of each shrine. The shrines can be visited in any order and their approximate location should be marked on your map.

[edit] Shrine of Humility, Fields of Kummu

This shrine can be found in the Fields of Kummu, on the north shore of Lake Amaya, along the road between two trees (map). You need a piece of muck to activate this shrine (just north of the marker on your map, Position 14600, -33300, 900). If you don't have a portion, proceed south into the lake until you come across a small island where you can obtain some from a Muckspunge. Once you activate the shrine, you will be blessed with Feather 100 pts for 48 min.

The Shrine of Daring

[edit] The Shrine of Daring, Vivec Temple

This is one of three shrines in Vivec, found outside in the south-west corner of the Temple Canton (Position 31900, -102200, 1200). You will need a Rising Force Potion in order to activate the shrine, which can be bought from Danso Indules in the Temple tunnel or from other vendors around Vivec (any quality of potion will do, though you cannot use one you made yourself). Once you activate the shrine, you will be blessed with Levitate 100 pts for 24 min.

[edit] Shrine of Generosity, Palace of Vivec

This is one of three shrines in Vivec , found outside the entrance to the Palace (Position 32800, -106600, 2100). With a donation of 100 gold you can activate the shrine and be blessed with Fortify Mercantile and Luck 10 pts for 48 min.

[edit] The Shrine of Courtesy, The Puzzle Canal

This is one of the three shrines in Vivec and its entrance can be found on Level 3 of the Puzzle Canal in the Palace Canton (in the center of the level in the tunnel). Once inside you will find a shrine that will only give you the cryptic message of Breathe the Waters of His Glory and the Way is Made Clear. What you have to do is drown yourself in the water to reveal the true shrine. Once your health drops below 10, you will black out for a second and be healed.(If you are unable to drown because you have a permanent Water Breathing effect, damage your health to 10).

Cross the bridge to the revealed area and talk to the Dremora Krazzt at the top of the stairs beside the shrine. Give him a Silver Longsword (get one from the chest if you don't have one). You can now activate the shrine and be blessed with Water Breathing and Swift Swim 25 pts for 48 min.

The Ash Mask inside the Temple

[edit] Shrine of Justice, Gnisis

This shrine can be found at the top of the Tribunal Temple in Gnisis, next to the Mask of Vivec artifact. You need a Potion of Cure Common Disease to activate the shrine, which can be bought within the Temple (check the rooms near the entrance). Once you activate the shrine, try touching the middle panel again to reveal the true Vivec Ashmask. Touch the mask to be taught the spell Vivec's Touch (cheap but 100% effective Cure Common and Blight Disease on Touch).

[edit] Shrine of Valor, Koal Cave

This shrine is a little more difficult to reach, being found inside the Koal Cave just south of Gnisis along the shore (it is is marked on your map, under the stone arch) (map). You will need some Dreugh Wax to activate the shrine just inside the entrance. You can buy wax in the Temple in Gnisis, or just find and kill the Dreugh Warlord found further inside the cave (the Warlord might be very tough for lower level characters). Activate the shrine to receive the blessing of Fortify Unarmored, Light Armor, Medium Armor, Heavy Armor 10 pts for 48 min. If you killed the Dreugh Warlord in the cave, you'll also receive an enchanted Dreugh Cuirass for each Dreugh Wax you donate. Please note, you can also revisit this shrine anytime and donate more Dreugh Wax and continue to receive a Dreugh Cuirass for each one, thus making this a great cash cow.

The shrine inside the Ghostfence

[edit] The Shrine of Pride, Ghostfence

This is the most difficult shrine to visit, mainly due to its remote location (map). You might want to pick up a soulgem before you head out since you need one to activate the shrine (any quality will do, and it doesn't matter if it is filled or not). Head towards the Ghostgate which should be marked on your map roughly south-east of Ald'ruhn. It's a long walk and watch out for those Cliff Racers. Once you reach the Ghostgate, open both gates with the buttons to travel through the tunnel.

One note of warning: The shrine here will take the largest soulgem you have, which might be distressing if you were saving it for your next visit to an enchanter. However, you can prevent this happening by dropping all but one gem before activating the shrine.

Once inside the Ghostfence region, follow the path north a little way and then head north-east in the little dip to find the shrine between two trees (Position 24400, 45100, 4600). Activate the shrine with a soulgem to receive a blessing of Fortify Magicka 50 pts and Shield 25 pts for 48 min.

Once you visit and activate all seven shrines, return to any Tribunal Temple Master (not just the quest givers) to notify them that you've finished the pilgrimages.

[edit] Bugs

There is a rare bug associated with the Shrine of Daring if you are using God Mode (TGM) in patched or unpatched versions of the game, which causes difficulty with all levitation in the future. To prevent this, make sure God Mode is OFF before making the donation. Having levitation active before making the donation WILL NOT make any difference.

[edit] Notes

You can start the quest without joining the Temple. Simply read The Pilgrim's Path - you will receive a journal entry, and the locations of the shrines will be marked on your map.
There are actually two identical shrines on either side of the door at the top of the stairs to the Palace. You only need to donate to one of them.
You may have to activate the Shrine of Courtesy several times to make it work.
Teleporting to the temple can prevent the script from checking what shrines you have visited. If this occurs, walk out of the temple, and maybe walk out of town, then walk back in. Then talk about seven graces to get the journal entry, allowing you to continue. (The problematic script is called templeStewards and is located on Temple Masters.)
