Detailed Walkthrough

During your time in Lukiul Uxith, you may find an Argonian woman in one of the mud huts.

"Welcome. Are you a scholar of the Mages Guild?
Wait, don't tell me."

Who mentioned the Mages Guild?

"I did. I'm going to join the guild in Ebonheart. Their scales will be moist with envy when I show them my concoction. It's a potion that imitates the visions we get when we lick the Hist tree.
I just need the final reagent."

Do you need any help, Nojaxia?

"Yes! Yes! Grub grass? Could you? It grows at the base of a waterfall near here. Meanwhile, I'll work on the brew.
The river always provides."

I'll return with the grub grass.

You'll find the grub grass at the base of Greymist Falls, west of the village. Once you've gathered a sample, bring it back to Nojaxia. She'll make her concoction and ask you to deliver it to her assistant, Not-So-Quick.

"You're wet, and you stink. You have my reagents?"

Here's the grub grass you wanted.

"I'll mix this. And this.
There. Now to test it. Would you take this to my assistant?"

Your assistant isn't here?

"Oh, no! He's much too afraid of me. He's hiding behind the large mushrooms to the south.
We call him Not-So-Quick. Just tell him I don't want him to drink it."

All right. I will.

You can find him to the right of Meenai-Makka's Hut, crouching by a stone wall behind some nearby giant mushrooms.

"I can't talk. I have to concentrate on not being seen. If I can't see her, she can't see me!"

Nojaxia doesn't want you to drink this.

"Really? She said that? Then my first reaction is to drink it. But she knows that's what I'll think, so I shouldn't. But I should do the opposite of that so ...
Dry scales, I think I've figured her out. Give it to me."

If you insist.

When he drinks the elixir, he falls over. Go back to Nojaxia and let her know that you're pretty sure Not-So-Quick almost died drinking her potion.

"Quickly! How did it go? Was there a strong color change? Perhaps a strong smell?"

Your potion almost killed Not-So-Quick.

"He'll get better. Here, smell this. Does it smell dangerous? No, of course not! It smells great!
Your turn. You'll want to be out in the open, preferably in the exact center of town. Enjoy the experience."

We'll see ...

Do as she says. After you drink the elixir, your vision will go black, and you'll see the strangest thing... a mammoth being chased by a cat. The gigantic beast has the voice of a Nord.

Mammoth: "Help! The cat's after me!"

Return to Nojaxia and tell her what you saw. She'll reward you for your help.

"Well, what did you see?"

Everything got hazy. And then I saw a mammoth ... being chased by a cat.

"Fascinating. That's not what I expected. Perhaps I should pick up an alchemical text or two, purely to augment my own talent, of course.
Thank you. Swim swiftly."

Notes

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.

• 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 any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
