Morrowind talk:Yanemus Mine

Explanation?

Is there any explanation for how these people are inside the ghost fence, mining away? There's like ascended sleepers right outside! This is a legitimate question. Aliksy (talk) 03:04, 9 January 2013 (GMT)

Not really, although there is a House Hlaalu quest to deal with the Zainab Ashlanders who have apparently started selling ebony: Hlaalu offer them a deal to be the Zainab's only purchaser (and then, presumably, sell it on to the Imperials at a markup). Since this is the only Ashlander-staffed ebony mine, it's almost certainly the source of whatever ebony the Zainab are mining, and the Zainab camp is indeed closest. How the miners get into the mine is unknown, since it would be a very long and dangerous path to take it out via Ghostgate and then have to take a long and winding track out over Molag Amur to return to the Zainab camp: more likely we may assume there is a hidden tunnel under the Ghostfence which the player can't discover... — Unsigned comment by JLE (talk • contribs) at 21:43 on 24 October 2018
