Shivering:Font of Madness

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

The Font of Madness stands behind Sheogorath's throne. It is used to imbue the Staff of Sheogorath with power, after which it can be used to recharge it.

The Font has a close relationship with the Shivering Isles themselves. Dyus comments that "The trees and branches of this Realm feed from a deep font of madness and mystery", and Haskill tells the player that "Once the source of Madness becomes the Font of Order, Jyggalag has won", and that "As goes the Font of Madness, so goes the Realm". Haskill also informs you that "The Font flows with the sap of the Tree of Madness, which it draws up from deep beneath the palace. The Fountainhead leads down to the Pools of Dementia and Mania, where the insanity of the Realm's inhabitants settles."
