What Eye of Talos was the guard talking about?
I went to Windhelm one day and a guard mentioned "an Eye of Talos was a fine ship, but now it's in wrecks. It's north of here." Then the map updated. I looked at the map above Windhelm but there was no Eye of Talos. What did the guard mean by the ship's name?
Best Answer
The wreck in question is actually "The Pride of Tel Vos". Per the notes section:
During a random conversation with a Windhelm guard, the wreck is referred to as "The Eye of Talos". The map marker is still added correctly, however.
It is unclear whether this was a mistake made while recording the line, the name of the ship was changed some time after the line was recorded, or this is a case of the telephone game ("Pride of Tel Vos" does sound somewhat similar to "Eye of Talos").
