Defense of Bruma Walkthrough

1 Talk to Narina in Bruma

Travel to Bruma and enter Castle Bruma. Talk to Countess Narina Carvain and discuss the battle plans.

Note that this is your last chance to complete the Allies for Bruma quest and recruit reinforcements for the upcoming battle. We recommend completing Allies for Bruma beforehand to make the battle easier.

2 Meet Martin at the Chapel

Follow Narina to the Great Chapel of Talos, located just southeast of the city. Enter the chapel and watch the conversation between Narina and Martin.
3 Head to the Oblivion Gate

When you're ready, talk to Narina to deploy the troops to the battlefield outside of Bruma.

Follow Martin outside the city and toward the Oblivion Gate northeast of Bruma.

Once at the gate, wait for Martin to rally the troops. The number of reinforcements you recruited during Allies for Bruma will determine how many soldiers appear on the battlefield. If you didn't complete Allies for Bruma, you'll only have Martin, Jauffre, Burd, and a few Bruma soldiers.
4 Defeat the Advancing Daedra

After Martin’s speech, waves of Daedra will begin emerging from the Oblivion Gate. Defeat all advancing enemies. This will continue until two more Oblivion Gates open.

When the third gate appears, the Great Gate will open, leading directly into the next quest, Great Gate.
