The White Phial
The cracked White Phial

The White Phial is a legendary bottle, forged in the days when Skyrim was just starting its turn to ice. A small container, made of the magically infused snow that first fell on the Throat of the World. It is said that the Phial will replenish whatever fluid is placed inside of it.

Visiting The White Phial and speaking to Nurelion reveals that The White Phial has been his life's obsession, to the extent that he even named his store after it. Nurelion's research has uncovered the current location of the phial, however he is in the last stages of a fatal illness but believes that The White Phial may be able to save him.

After the quest Repairing the Phial you will be rewarded with The White Phial (Full), which functions as a potion with the effects you choose. Drinking The White Phial (Full) moves it to your Miscellaneous section as The White Phial (Empty). After 24 hours the potion inside the White Phial will regenerate and the potion will be drinkable once again.
