Dagon Shrine  (57/109)

Inside the cave you will receive a warm welcome – everyone thinks that you’re there to join them. The first priest will open the door for you, the second will tell you about your initiation as a member. Agree to his proposal, giving him all your stuff (you’ll get it back eventually, but if you don’t feel like parting with everything you’ve got then just drop some stuff on the ground before actually talking to him) and wearing the red robe. Follow him to the shrine. You’ll witness a speech made by Mankar Camoran. Get on the “stage” when you are encouraged to. You have to make a sacrifice in order to become one of them. You can follow the order and slay the Argonian or disobey and start killing everyone. Either way you won’t be able to leave here without raising the alarm so it doesn’t really matter what you choose. You have to do 2 things: kill Harrow (he’s got all your stuff, remember?) and steal the book Mysterium Xarxes. While you can sneak kill the wretched Dunmir, the book can’t be stolen without somebody noticing. Just grab it, then, and run for your life, following the path indicated on your map. Once you leave the cave, go back to Cloud Ruler Temple and give the book to Martin.

 

Looks familiar, doesn’t it?

So i noticed something when i played through this after several tries that when i take the book from the altar the statue right behind it crumbles so what i did was get Harrow to stand right under it before i grabed the book and when the statue crumbles it hit Harrow for about half his health wich makes him easier to kill and get ur stuff back

For those of you asking how to get through with just using the dagger... I dropped my magic sword on the ground right before Harrow approached me, and after I let him take everything, I picked the sword back up and followed him. It's a lot easier killing everyone with a magic sword than a dagger. Strangely, no one questioned why I had a sword with me... Hope this helps.

Look! Martin plays Oblivion! I bet he's really good at it too.. probably made a mod to become emperor.

If none of them gave you a key then it could be on some crate or furniture, if not then try reloading or restarting the game from where you are. And I think to save the argonian you have to wake him up or free him right away before the statue crumbles on him.

so here is my problem.After the first guy opened my cave I killed him,( I did that because i didn't want to give my possesions from the begining,so it would be easier for me to kill him right away),and anyway I killed and the next guy passed through a door(which now I cannot open) ,killed some others but they don't have any key to open the next doors.Plus I saved the game only when I entered the door after killing the second guy.So I'm stucked and I can't load the game to a previous moment.is there anything I can do,or should I restart the game?:S

I tried this with a level 8 nord. There is no way I can do this without an edge. Brute strength won't suffice against so many people.

Ok. so i just totally found this site and i did it different. I stealth arrowed the doorkeeper and finished him off. Then i just used sneak around the whole place and sneak killed anyone i could. This way i still had al my gear to kill them at the end with, not a puny dagger.
