| Description | I've agreed to look for Dar-Ma, the daughter of Seed-Neeus of Chorrol. I should go to Hackdirt and speak to Eitira Moslin, the owner of the village store. Seed-Neeus also suggested I look for Dar-Ma's favorite horse, Blossom -- if I find the horse, Dar-Ma is likely nearby. |
Shadow Over Hackdirt is located in Northern Goods and Trade. Talk to Dar-Ma in Chorrol to start the quest.

Speak to Seed-Neeus After Two Days
After speaking with Dar-Ma, leave Chorrol and wait for two days before returning to the city. You'll start to hear rumors about how Dar-Ma has gone missing and you can further inquire about this by asking citizens either Dar-Ma or Missing Daughter in their dialogue.
The rumors lead to Seed-Neeus at Northern Good and Trade. Speak to her and she'll mention that her daugther never returned from a delivery to Hackdirt and suggests you speak to the local merchant Etira Moslin.
Make Your Way to Hackdirt
Make your way to Hackdirt located south of Chorrol. The locals here are very unhelpful and will shrug off questions regarding Dar-Ma. Make your way to Moslin's Dry Goods and speak to Etira Moslin and ask about Dar-Ma but she will claim that she has never arrived into town.
Look for Blossom the Horse
Head outside and make your way to one of the ruined buildings west of Moslin's Dry Goods and you'll find Blossom who is Dar-Ma's horse. Head back to Etira Moslin and question her about the horse and she'll claim that it's hers.
Enter the Basement to Reach the Caverns
In the same room where Etira Moslin is located is a trap door that you can lockpick leading to the basement which has another trap door which leads to the caverns underneath Hackdirt.
This area is full of patrolling Bretheren who will attack you if you are spotted so we recommend using Potions of Invisibility or spells to navigate the caverns.
As soon as you reach the caverns, turn left to reach the holding area where Dar-Ma is imprisoned. Grab the key on the chair next to her cell to free her and escape the caverns. Dar-Ma will mention that she wants to rescue her horse Blossom. Make your way west from Moslin's Dry Goods and help retrieve Blossom for her.
Return to Chorrol and Speak to Seed-Neeus
Make your way back to Chorrol north of Hackdirt. You'll need to guard Dar-Ma during the trip as you may get attacked by enemies on the way and if they manage to kill Dar-Ma, you will fail the quest. We recommend equipping healing spells such as Major Heal Other so you can heal Dar-Ma if she gets attacked.
Once you reach Chorrol, make your way back to Seed-Neeus in the Northern Good and Trade and speak to her. She'll reward you with a +5 increase in the Mercantile skill, which ends the quest.
