==Detailed Walkthrough==
===Locating the Shrine of [[Lore:Malacath|Malacath]]===
[[Oblivion:Malacath's Shrine|Malacath's Shrine]] is located on the Gold Coast, west of [[Oblivion:Fort Sutch|Fort Sutch]] and north of [[Oblivion:Anvil|Anvil]].
The location of this Shrine can be marked on your map by:
* Speaking to [[Oblivion:Thaurron|Thaurron]] in the Anvil Mages Guild
* Speaking to [[Oblivion:Pinarus Inventius|Pinarus Inventius]] in [[Oblivion:Anvil|Anvil]] about ''Daedric Shrines'' (you must have already read ''[[Oblivion:Modern Heretics|Modern Heretics]]'' or have spoken with [[Oblivion:Ulene Hlervu|Ulene Hlervu]] about "Cheydinhal")
===An Offering to the God===
Speak to [[Oblivion:Shobob gro-Rugdush|Shobob gro-Rugdush]], who (unless you are playing an [[Oblivion:Orc|Orc]]) will mention that the followers don't like 'beautiful people' and suggests that maybe you can convince him you're not so beautiful on the inside. With a little more disposition (50) he'll tell you that they don't like non-Orcs and that you should approach the shrine at your own risk. If you are playing as an Orc, Malacath's worshippers will be more welcoming and no disposition boosts are needed. In either case, you will need [[Oblivion:Troll Fat|Troll Fat]] to activate Malacath's shrine.Once you have the troll fat, activate the shrine.
If you are an Orc, Malacath will say:
:''Nice present! Good! And from a nice Orc, too! Double good! Orcs are smart. They know, you want something, you do what the Boss tells you. So listen good... Lord Drad took my ogres. Poxy white-skin says he owns them. Lying maggot! They're MY ogres! So this Lord Drad, he puts my little brothers in chains, working in the mines, and it makes me mad. So. You get over to Lord Drad's estate. Get my ogres loose, and get them out. Do it now, for me... the Boss.''
If not, he will instead say:
:''You brought a present. Good. That's smart. You want something? Then, if you're smart, you do what I tell you. Lord Drad took my ogres. Says he owns them. Lying maggot! They're MY ogres! Lord Drad put my little brothers in chains, working in the mines. I don't like that. Get over to Lord Drad's estate. Let my ogres loose, and get them out! Okay? Get going!''
===The Task at Hand===
Drad's Estate is just southeast of the Shrine and is now marked on your map. Speak to Drad about his ''Ogre Slaves''. You can either go with or against slavery in the dialogue. If you ''admire his efforts'', he'll tell you the Ogres are in [[Oblivion:Bleak Mine|Bleak Mine]]. If you go against slavery, speak to Lady Drad to learn this information. You may need to raise her disposition to 70 to get this information from her. Exact locations to Bleak Mine are not given, but it is east of the estate. The [[Oblivion:Bleak Mine Key|key]] for unlocking Bleak Mine can be found on a nightstand left of the entrance door.
The mine is protected by a leveled lock. You can pick it, use an [[Oblivion:Open|Open]] spell, or use the key found in the Estate. Once in the mine, your objective is to find the ogres and release them from their cells. There are two groups of ogres, both in locked cells. Every [[Oblivion:Bleak Mine Guard|guard]] has a set of keys that opens the cells (if you're choosing the non-violent approach, you can pickpocket one of the guards if your [[Oblivion:Sneak|sneak]] skill is good enough), or you can open them yourself. Once freed, the ogres will help you kill any guards they encounter. If you have kept your weapon sheathed so far, the guards will attack the ogres but not you. You'll receive a quest message once you have freed all ogres (opened both cells).
===Returning to the Shrine===
Return to the Shrine for your reward, the warhammer [[Oblivion:Volendrung|Volendrung]].
When you complete the quest (regardless of your race), Malacath says:
:''Good job! No one owns ogres but ME! And I fixed that maggot! The ogres own Drad! Make Drad eat dirt! Bwah-hah-hah! Now you get a present. Keep up the good work. And be nice to my little brothers!''
==Notes==
* While the freed ogres won't hurt you, it is possible for them to attack your horse on sight. In particular, this is likely if you are riding [[Oblivion:Prior Maborel's Paint Horse|Prior Maborel's Paint Horse]], [[Oblivion:Shadowmere|Shadowmere]], or a stolen horse (all of which are members of the [[Oblivion:Factions_P#Prey creatures|Prey faction]]). If so, you may want to leave your horse at the shrine and head to the farm on foot.
* If you kill any ogres before returning to Malacath, you will fail the quest and forego your chance to receive Volendrung. This will also prevent you from ever being able to start [[Oblivion:Hermaeus Mora|Hermaeus Mora]]'s quest (see below in [[Oblivion:Malacath#Bugs|Bugs]].)
** If you choose to kill the ogres after the quest and then speak to Lady Drad, she will be distressed and say that you "killed the poor beasts and that you've ruined her and her husband".
** If ogres are killed fighting the guards, you will not fail the quest.
* Malacath will not accept [[Oblivion:Painted Troll Fat|Painted Troll Fat]].
* The Drad Estate is a private area (red icon) but you still should be able to speak to [[Oblivion:Lord Drad|Lord]] and [[Oblivion:Lady Drad|Lady Drad]].
*Once the ogres are freed they force Lord and Lady Drad to work in their own fields.
** This happens even if all the ogres were killed by the guards.
==Bugs==
{{Bug|Due to an oversight, unlike all other [[Oblivion:Daedric Quests|Daedric Quests]], Malacath's (and [[Oblivion:Namira|Namira's]]) quest must be ''successfully'' completed to count towards Hermaeus Mora's requirements.|UOP}}
** If you've failed Malacath's quest and thus been disqualified from ever getting Hermaeus Mora's, all hope is not lost. See [[Oblivion:Mephala#Bugs|Mephala quest bugs]] for a workaround.
{{Bug|If you do not kill all of the guards during this quest, they will follow you everywhere until either of you are dead. You may not see them, even for many days, but they will still be after you. If you are arrested at any time after this quest, you will find the surviving Bleak Mine guards waiting for you when you exit the prison. They will not be hostile unless you draw a weapon, at which point they will attack you, prompting a fight with other nearby NPCs.|UOP}}
{{Bug|While in the mine, or even after completing the quest if they have not been killed, the guards may randomly denounce you as a thief, but will take no action against you unless you attack them.|confirmed=1}}

{{Journal Entries
|10||One of Malacath's worshippers has told me that, in order to have the Daedra summoned, I must leave an offering of Troll Fat at the statue. [You must be level 10 to begin this quest.]
|20||When I left the offering, Malacath was summoned and spoke to me. He tasked me with traveling to the estate of Lord Drad and freeing his ogre slaves.
|30||I have spoken with Lord Drad. He believes the ogres to be suitable slaves, as they are mindless beasts, and is pleased with the ogres he uses in Bleak Mine. I appears I will have to free the ogres myself, if I am to complete Malacath's task for me.
|31||I have spoken with Lord Drad. He believes the ogres to be suitable slaves, as it does not violate Imperial Law. I fear I've angered him, though, and he will no longer speak with me. Perhaps his wife will be more forthcoming.
|34||Lady Drad has told me that the ogres are located in Bleak Mine, not far from here. I will have to go free them to appease Malacath.
|35||I have entered Bleak Mine. Now I must free Malacath's ogres.
|36||I freed one group of ogres. I must check to see if there are more to be freed. ''(if stage 37 has '''not''' been done)''
|37||I freed one group of ogres. I must check to see if there are more to be freed. ''(if stage 36 has '''not''' been done)''
|50||I have freed all the ogres in the Bleak Mine. I should return to the Shrine of Malacath.
|100|fin|Malacath was satisfied with my efforts to free the ogres. He has rewarded me with Volendrung.
|200|fin|Malacath wanted his ogres freed... not killed. Now there's no chance of earning the reward he promised.
