[edit] Dialogue

[edit] Initial dialogue

Kerrsh

"The time has come, <Player name>. I have deciphered the message hidden within the magical signatures. They are coordinates pointing to a location in Varajar Fells. You have been useful thus far, for a human. I do not know what we will face there. Go to where the message instructs. The answers will be waiting there. And so shall I."
Yes Accept: "The truth is out there."
No Decline: "I don't want to believe."
Ask Ask: "Travel to Varajar Fells. I will meet you there."

[edit] Intermediate dialogue

Reaching the designated point.

Kerrsh: "Undoubtedly, this is the place to which the coordinates point. The six shall converge here."

Killing the first two facets.

Kerrsh: "They do not divulge their secrets easily."

Killing the next two facets.

Kerrsh: "This is the Eternal Alchemy at work. Even your human gods cannot stand against its inevitability!"

Killing the last two facets.

Kerrsh: "At long last!"
Ephemeral Spirit: "Vm'Jqqteomn dj'dpjat ipj'attw"
Ephemeral Spirit: "Rthjms'dpt xoada'rthjms dpt'setvxa"
Ephemeral Spirit: "Jm'soadvmd apjeta'jq v'yvms bmivwomn"
Ephemeral Spirit: "Vmaitea'dptet yot'om ivodomn"
Kerrsh: "Wait! You lead me this far only to tantalize me with further mysteries? Know this: if it takes until the sun sets on the final day of creation...until the wheels of the Eternal Alchemy seize up and tear apart the fabric of the universe...I shall decipher your secrets!"

[edit] Reward dialogue

Kerrsh

"Where I have sought answers, I have found only questions. There is meaning behind these words. I have memorized all that was said and will ponder it. I will not forget the assistance you have provided, <Player name>. Perhaps when I find my answers, I will see you once again...at the end of the path."

[edit] Notes

  • Get the Norn Hunting Party blessing. With all the Facet bosses each rewarding a base of 50 reputation points, and possible bonuses from rampage or boss hunts, one can generate a substantial amount of reputation points.
  • It is much closer to start from the Central Transfer Chamber, although you would have to be willing to wait until near the end-game before completing this quest.
  • Continually completing and abandoning this quest will speed Norn title. An additional 1.8k norn points (300/boss) per run in Normal Mode or 2.7k Norn points (450/boss) in Hard Mode can be gained for title, if you have at least 250 kills beforehand, with the possibility of even more with Boss Bounty as indicated in Guide to farming Norn reputation points. Consider maxing Norn title before finally completing quest.
  • Kerrsh will not spawn if the Wintersday quest Wintersday Cheer is active and in the phase where you need to meet with Lefsi Spiritchaser

[edit] Trivia

  • The gods' message to the Asura is a cryptogram, and can be solved with a substitution cipher, the particulars of which can be found here. The message reads:
"An offering to those who seek"
"Beyond the mists beyond the dreams"
"On distant shores of a land unwaking"
"Answers there lie in waiting"
  • The Accept and Decline lines are quotes from the two famous phrases in X-Files, the Decline changed from "I want to believe"
