Follow the red marker on your compass to reach another area within the cave called Sundercliff Forge. The lower level of the forge houses the Forgemaster Tent that contains the 2nd Enchanted Bezoar.
| Varsa Baalim Entrance | ![]() |
|---|---|
| The Nefarivigum Entrance | ![]() |
Head to the lower level of Sundercliff Commune to reach the door that leads to Varsa Baalim. Place the two Enchanted Bezoars on the Enchanted Pedestals to open the door.
Explore Varsa Baalim and reach the entrance to the Nefarivigum.

Head down the stairs and kill Frathen Drothan near the statue. Open the yellow gate and kill Msirae Faythung after.
Another option to deal with the two enemies is to sneak your way to the gate and open it. Msirae Faythung will come alive and attack Frathen Drothan. If Frathen Drothan manages to kill the other, the gate will open and will head back to observing the statue.

Proceed through the open gate and activate the Mehrunes Razor to complete the quest. Another door will unlock behind it that leads to the Forgotten Tunnels. Make your way through the tunnels to head back to Lake Canulus.
You will receive the Mehrunes Razor at the end of this quest. This dagger is a one-handed Blade that has a chance of instantly killing a target.
