Border Watch Mayhem: Completing the K'Sharra Prophecy Quest Step-by-Step
If you're diving into Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered and craving some pure madness, the K'Sharra Prophecy quest from Sheogorath is your golden ticket. Here's your complete, easy-to-follow, casual guide to pulling off one of the craziest tasks in Tamriel.
Getting Started: Meeting the Worshippers of Sheogorath
Right before the real chaos starts, a young adventurer—you—gets sent to chat with some very eccentric worshippers of the Daedric Prince of Madness.
Conversations are pure nonsense. One follower claims she used to be a dog, but "got better," while another raves about bugs being everywhere. Eventually, you're directed to speak with someone named Ravel (though they call him Rall sometimes—because why not add to the confusion?).
Where to Find Sheogorath's Shrine
Before meeting the mad prince himself, you’ll need to find his shrine. Here's how:
Head south from Bravil.
Cross the bridge you’ll find there.
Take a westward path right after the bridge.
Soon, you’ll spot Sheogorath’s Shrine tucked into the landscape.
Tip: Make sure your character is at least Level 2 before trying to interact with the shrine!
Gathering the Offering Items
Sheogorath doesn’t accept typical offerings like other Daedric Princes. No, he wants:
A Head of Lettuce
Some Yarn
A Lesser Soul Gem
Now, let’s get these bizarre items.
Shopping Trip to Imperial City Market
You’ll find most of the junk—err, sacred offerings—you need at the Imperial City Market District.
Here’s the shopping list rundown:
Head of Lettuce:
Visit one of the food merchants like Jensine. Grab a lettuce for a few gold coins.Yarn:
Yarn can usually be found inside random crates and barrels around the district. If it’s not in one crate, keep searching; it randomly spawns.Lesser Soul Gem:
Go to the Mystic Emporium. Inside, you’ll find a Lesser Soul Gem for about 41 gold coins.
Once you’ve grabbed all three items, you’re ready for the next step.
Summoning Sheogorath
Offering in hand, head back to Sheogorath's Shrine.
Contrary to what the worshippers say, rain isn’t required to summon him. Just place the items on the shrine.
And boom — Sheogorath himself appears! Expect him to talk about turning you into a goat, making you eat your fingers, or falling in love with a cloud. Typical Sheogorath.
The Task: Bring Chaos to Border Watch
Sheogorath gives you a mission:
Travel to Border Watch, a quiet little settlement, and fulfill the K'Sharra Prophecy — three disastrous signs that the villagers believe will signal the end of the world.
Your steps:
Overrun the town with rats (first sign).
Kill their livestock (second sign).
Unleash fear and madness (third sign).
Sounds fun, right?
Finding the Shaman and Learning About the Prophecy
Border Watch is just a short walk south of the shrine.
Look for Ribasa, the village shaman—a Khajiit in black robes.
Important:
Boost Ribasa's disposition to at least 60 using persuasion before he'll open up about the prophecy.
Once friendly, Ribasa will explain the three signs:
Plague of Vermin – Rats invade.
Plague of Famine – Livestock mysteriously die.
Plague of Fear – A terrifying event strikes the village.
Starting the First Sign: Plague of Vermin
To summon the rats, you need a powerful stinky cheese called Olroy Cheese.
Here's the deal:
Visit the Border Watch Inn.
Speak with the barkeep about their rare cheese collection.
The Olroy Cheese is locked inside a high-security display case. You have a few options:
Pick the lock (very hard).
Pickpocket the key from the innkeeper.
Kill the innkeeper (messy but effective).
Tip: Wait until the tavern is empty before attempting theft for a smoother job.
Once you have the cheese, sneak over to the village cooking pot and toss it in.
Now, wait and watch. Soon, rats will swarm the town, and Ribasa will freak out, running around throwing rat poison everywhere.
Second Sign: Killing the Livestock
Next step: Poison the sheep!
While Ribasa runs around tossing poison, you’ll notice poison vials dropped throughout the village. Collect as many as you can.
Now:
Sneak over to the livestock feeding troughs.
Add poison to their food.
After a short time, you’ll see sheep dropping dead across the village, fulfilling the second prophecy sign.
Third Sign: The Plague of Fear
With rats rampant and sheep dead, chaos is brewing.
Now, it’s time for the final act: Sheogorath himself triggers this event.
Head to the center of the village and wait.
The sky will turn blood red, thunder will roar, and strange rain will fall. Villagers will start running around in terror, confirming the Plague of Fear has struck.
Congratulations!
The K'Sharra Prophecy is now fully realized.
Wrapping Up the Quest
After the madness is unleashed, return to Sheogorath’s Shrine.
The mad prince, delighted by your work, rewards you with the Wabbajack — a magical staff that can transform any creature into something completely random for 30 seconds.
Pretty sweet, right?
Key Takeaways: Mastering the Madness
Prepare early by collecting the Head of Lettuce, Yarn, and Lesser Soul Gem.
Save your game before stealing the cheese to avoid getting caught.
Stay patient while waiting for events to trigger.
Enjoy the Wabbajack, one of the most chaotic Daedric artifacts in the game!
Conclusion: Embrace the Madness
Completing Sheogorath’s K'Sharra Prophecy quest is one of the most unforgettable experiences in Oblivion Remastered. From chasing rats to poisoning sheep and watching a village crumble into chaos, it perfectly captures the spirit of the Daedric Prince of Madness.
Whether you're a veteran of Tamriel or new to the madness, this quest reminds us that sometimes, the best adventures are the wildest ones. So grab your Wabbajack, embrace the insanity, and keep exploring — because with Sheogorath, things are only going to get weirder from here.
