The Conducive Spirit in Beredalmo's Shack

The Conducive Spirit is a mysterious High Elf spirit initially encountered at Beredalmo's Shack. As you approach the door, Beredalmo's Memoir will be added to your inventory and a Conducive Spirit will appear and lead you to a carriage beside the shack, where you will find a knapsack containing a Rusted Key. Though he does not speak, he will appear at various times in the quest to guide towards your goal.

At the glowing crystal path in the Aetherial Rift you will once again find the mysterious Conducive Spirit, reading a book in front of a strange podium. As you approach, the vision disappears and the spirit is replaced by the body of Lord Corvus Direnni.

Back Beredalmo's Shack, Corvus Direnni's Conducive Spirit also appears to give you one final guiding push before disappearing: Architectonic Renditions, a book which describes the locations of many of the wayshrines that can be found in Skyrim.

Lord Corvus Direnni's body in the Aetherial Rift

The identity of the ghost is later revealed to be Lord Corvus Direnni, a master of conjuration from Clan Direnni. He died in the Aetherial Rift attempting to activate the Snow Elven wayshrine system.

The book On the Metaphysics of Moving Bodies is lying beside him. Check his body for his Final Wish, a plea for anyone who finds him to continue his research into the wayshrines and the Snow Elven technology at their core, and collect the two Grand Soul Gems he was carrying. Next, pick up and activate the nearby book, which will grant you the Salvage Soul spell. Cast the spell to give you the opportunity to salvage souls from soul gems in order to increase your Soul Energy. Salvage the souls from the two Grand Soul Gems you collected from the body, and you will receive enough Soul Energy to activate the Teleport Conduit and escape the Rift.

Corvus Direnni's final wish gives hints on what to do next – "what would possibly occur if all wayshrines were active?" This task is added to your journal as the miscellaneous objective "Discover more wayshrines to fulfill Corvus's final wish".
