Quest-Related Events[edit]

If you speak to her before starting the quest, she will offer you her services with a slightly concerning comment:

"My you smell lovely … delightful. How delightful."

After tracking down the shipment, Enthoras sends you to deliver it.

"You reek of kwama juices … why don't you come inside and spend some time with your granny Alyxe?
I'll have a hearty chunky brain stew ready soon, or do you like it spongey and raw?"
Are you expecting a shipment from Enthoras?
"What? Oh, from that netch scab Enthoras? It's late! It's so very late.
I've resorted to eating troll brains and maggot soup, and my potions have lost their delectable fetid flavor already."
Does that mean you don't want it?
"Of course I want it! Just pour it in the stew there. And if anything escapes, feel free to gobble it up as a tip.
If you want, you can spend time with your old granny Alyxe while the eggs pop and ooze into the sauce."

Put the ingredients in the pot to impress her.

"You didn't drop a single one, I'm impressed! Come to think of it, I have been needing an apprentice …."
Enthoras said you'd pay me on delivery.
"Hmph. Don't care to keep company with your old granny Alyxe? Or is it the smell of boiling kwama? A little too heady for your delicate sensibilities?
Oh, well. I'll enjoy it all for myself. I always do!"

This completes the quest for some gold and Alyxe's Rancid Pants.

Dialogue[edit]

After the quest, she will remain friendly towards you and you have the option of talking with her some more:

"If you stay much longer, you can stay for stew…you'll last several days, no doubt!"
"So delicious … I can smell it. The juices frothing in the fetid broth … you can stay for dinner if you like.
Or perhaps you can stay for my next few meals …."
"Get out of here or jump in the stew, the choice is yours, skeever tail!"
"Enthoras is already ordering my next shipment of Jarrin root. When dried, it lasts for positively ages…of course, you don't need much to do the trick."
"Come a little closer, so I can smear some troll dung on you. You stink like … supple, tender …."
"If you stay much longer, your granny Alyxe will have to show you her favorite toadstool. It's dry and crispy, just like her sweet tender nibbles."
"I met a drunk Bosmer hunter the other day, small and stringy, not too bright.
Thought he'd make a nice pet, but he didn't stay long after he woke up. Ran off into the woods screaming … your granny Alyxe has that effect sometimes."
"Ever tried baked kwama eggs? Like crispy potstickers mixed with guts and ash. Mix it into your gums to feed the tooth worms.
If you want a sample, give your granny Alyxe a kiss, eh?"
"Care to spend some of that gold you've earned, dearie?
And before you ask, I'm all out of boar knuckles. You wouldn't believe the demand on those things."

Asking her a couple questions:

What sort of alchemy do you practice?
"Why, you need something, eh?
A tonic for your itchy bumps? A salve for your sore nethers? An unguent for critters in your hairs?"
Enthoras said you might sell me some excess wares.
"So you didn't come to see your old granny Alyxe to sit on her lap and hear a story? Didn't want to play count the warts, eh?
I might have a couple scraps I could sell, but they could be cheaper if you knew how to make an old lady's teeth tingle."
