Detailed Walkthrough

Finding Nelrene

After the plot against Syl is unravelled, you may hear a rumor that Nelrene is in prison from the people in Crucible. You don't need to hear this, you can just travel there and look for her. She's in a new cell added for this quest, near the one you may have landed in yourself. She has been told by Syl that she's now mortal - in fact she is no longer essential, but that's all.

Amber

She insists on following you out of the prison, and wants you to get her some Amber equipment, as that comes from Bliss, where Syl has little or no influence. She needs a Sword, a Cuirass, and a Shield (of any grade). If you already have some, you probably want to give it to her right away, as she will survive better with more than just jail pants and bare fists!

If you don't have the gear she needs, you'll have to get it made up by the smith in Bliss. Her requirements will take 10 pieces in total, 5 for the Cuirass, 2 for the shield, and 3 for the sword. Do not enchant it, or it will no longer be considered eligible, but you can use a matrix if you want her to have a better level.

Safe Haven

Once she's adequately armored, take her out of the Isles to Tamriel, and speak to her again. She'll feel a bit better, but still unsure of her safety. You need to consult Sheogorath (or Haskill, if you have replaced him) to get the truth.

A kinder, gentler Nelrene at Gweden

Sheo's Shrine

Travel to Sheogorath's shrine (the map marker will be added if needed) and activate the statue. Sheogorath or Haskill will reassure Nelrene that she is still a Daedra, not a mortal. You will now be able to recruit her for Gweden.

10 I heard that Nelrene was thrown in Corpserot Prison for her part in the plot against Syl. I wonder why she got off so lightly? I should go ask her about it.
20 I have spoken with Nelrene in her prison cell, and she is one frightened Mazken! Syl has convinced her that's she's mortal, and could die at any time. I don't think it's true, but I'll play along and see what happens. First we have to get Nelrene some Amber equipment.
30 Nelrene has enough Amber equipment to quell her fears, now I need to take her somewhere she feels safe.
40 I have brought Nelrene out of the Isles into Tamriel. I wonder if she'll more secure here? I should ask her
50 We should ask at Sheogorath's shrine about Nelrene's future. Maybe that will set her at ease.
60 We inquired at the Sheogorath shrine and got the reassurance Nelrene needed. Now I need to talk to her about her future.
100 0Yes I've lead Nelrene out of the Isles, and sent her to safety at Gweden. I hope she's be more relaxed there!
200 0Yes Nelrene has been killed. If she returns through the Wellspring, she'll see that Syl was lying to her, and I've lost her. And if she's really dead, that comes to the same result.
