The phrase "Green Emperor Way Where Tower Touches Midday Sun" is a key clue in the quest "The Path of Dawn" in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It directs the player to a specific location and time to activate a hidden tomb and advance the quest.
Explanation and How to Use the Clue
- Location: Green Emperor Way is the central district of the Imperial City, near the Imperial Palace and the White Gold Tower. The tomb to be activated is the Tomb of Prince Camarril, located just south of the gate leading to the Talos Plaza District in the Imperial City
- Time: The activation must occur around midday, specifically between 11:48 AM and 12:30 PM game time. The clue refers to the moment when the tip of the White Gold Tower "touches" or aligns with the midday sun
- Action: At this time, when standing on the south side of the tomb with the palace behind you, red runes on the tomb glow, revealing a map of Cyrodiil. The player must activate the tomb by interacting with it, which updates the quest and reveals the location of the Mythic Dawn shrine
- Additional Notes:
- It is not necessary to perform this on a specific day; the key is the time of day (midday)
* You must have read all four volumes of the "Commentaries on the Mysterium Xarxes" before the tomb can be activated
* The clue is derived from the first letters of paragraphs in the Mythic Dawn books, forming the phrase that guides the player
