Intake Maw

The Intake Maw is a stone carving that resembles a face with a huge, open mouth that can be found with the Obscured Forum. This is where secrets can be deposited in return for a boon from Hermaeus Mora.

Quest-Related Events[edit]

Hezehk will ask for help to recover the secret he was taking to the Obscured Forum on behalf of Madam Whim which he was robbed of by the Voidprowlers. With the use of Hezehk's lost item spell, you eventually recover Madam Whim's Secret. However, before the job can be considered done, it needs to be dropped off at the Intake Maw near the entrance of the Forum.

When you reach the Intake Maw, it will come to life and request the secret:

Intake Maw: "A boon for knowledge. Deposit payment for assessment."
Hezehk: "Well? Do as it says."

Once you have placed the secret in the Intake Maw, the following will happen:

Intake Maw: "Knowledge deposited. Hold for assessment."
Hezehk: "No, I do not want to hear Whim's dumb secret!"
Intake Maw: "Hezehk is my most invaluable servant. Much of my power comes from his skill. Without him, I would be lost."
Hezehk: "What? It's supposed to be a secret, not a lie."
Intake Maw: "Knowledge assessed and found sufficient. Accept this boon of Hermaeus Mora. Move along."
Hezehk: "It's … it's true? You get the boon, Hezehk needs to think."
