Find the Bloodworm helm and return it to Traven.

[edit] Detailed Walkthrough

[edit] Fort Teleman

Travel to Fort Teleman (northeast of Leyawiin). You'll find the place full of Necromancers, which is probably not good news for Irlav. Continue on to the Order of the Black Rose area. As soon as you enter the Black Rose area you should find a few Necromancers fighting with a number of Daedra. If you stay hidden they will fight amongst themselves. If they spot you, however, they will all likely try to attack you. This does however, provide a nice opportunity to test the Wizard's Fury spell, obtained from the previous quest. At the end of the Black Rose section you'll find the body of Irlav Jarol with the Bloodworm Helm still on it.

[edit] Return to Traven

Swipe the helm, and make your way out of the fort. Return the Bloodworm Helm to Traven to get a rank advance (only if you have already completed the The Necromancer's Amulet quest.)

[edit] Bugs

If you travel to Fort Teleman before starting this quest, but after completing A Plot Revealed, you will be able to retrieve the Bloodworm Helm from Irlav's corpse. Traven will then ask you for the Helm when you return to him with it, but there will be no dialogue option allowing you to give it to him. This will prevent you from advancing any further in the Mages Guild questline.

Notes

Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in random order.
If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage quest stage. Where quest is the internal name of the quest, and stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages. See SetStage for more information.
