Ok, I was in my house in Skingrad, just jumping all over my walls and stuff because I had nothing better to do when I found something sweet. I jumped onto the deer head and then onto the ledge above the stairwell and found a "Long Forgotten Note." When I read it, it explained that a treasure was hidden somewhere in my house. There was a riddle. Something like this: "I have to bodies though together I'm one, the more I stand still the quicker I run," so after a while I figured it out...

SPOILER....









Please try to figure it out for yourself. But if you can't....









It's an hourglass!


Ok. So I found an hourglass in the house but it dosn't do anything. I'm going to try to figure out what to do today but I invite you to try this intriguing quest. GOOD LUCK!

Thanks for the tip about that note. I myself would never have thought of jumping up there...

But, are you sure it's an hourglass? I've found 3 of them so far in the house, but all of them (I think) have been in the cupboards and barrels etc. you buy after you buy the house, so I guess it's not one of them. It should probably be a special item? The riddle fits an hourglass, so perhaps a special kind hidden somewhere. I've looked everywhere I can think of.

And the quest note says something like "I should solve the riddle to know what I should be looking for", so probably there will be a quest update when we find it. Anyway I'll keep looking.

Well... yeah... i must admit... next time i want to wantonly kill my time to death, i'll ask you and get revarded with a helluva quest

I'll peak into this too, once i get home from university

Yeah its an hour glass, just not very easy to find(*Note*Very hard). Great rewards too, I suggest you are a high level though, its much better.

P.S. If anyone wants the answer (Try to find it your self first!) then PM me and I will give you hint(Or the whole thing if you want).

Argh! Now I probably can't stop searching until I find it. Why high level? Is the rewards leveled? I'm using a mod that levels up already acquired enchanted items as you level up.

Call me naughty but i like to read walkthroughs and get the titles of every quest found (possesive abusive completely-ness, a serious sickness!) so i can be sure to have done it all. I don't care for the solution, i try that myself usually unless i get stuck or have completed it in another way.
The point beeing i haven't found any guides/walkthrough with a quest of a forgotten note.And believe me,searched i have. Maybe an idea of submitting it in sites with walkthroughs for others to find? I m guessing many people jump around but not many find such items? I usually do that in the arena waiting for the iron gates to open...good for your acrobatics, maybe give the impression you can't wait to kick your enemy's behind and you have to stand there anyway...well...no letters there!

There is a site that I think covers every quest in the game (including this one), and many other things. The site can be found here:

Unofficial Elder Scrolls Page

The walkthrough for this quest can be found under Quests/Skingrad.

I managed this without looking there, but I must admit I got a nice hint from Zelda_Zealot in a PM...

Hmm ,Thx ,I sjud trie to find it auot

Ah Yes, i did this Quest.....suffice to say the prize is very useful to my Stealth Character.

The Hungerglass is hidden in the beisment,it lies over the Garlecs
