This is my alternate quest to get the Propylon Chamber transport network running again. I found the official Master Index Plugin too linear and boring and hated that it made the propylon network useless until you had found all ten index stones.

Folms Mirel still wants to revive the old Dunmer transport system, but now he's not just too lazy to go fetch those index stones himself. He actually needs your help to find them.

Without an Index the Magicka and Fatigue costs are just too high for most people. (Now you can activate a propylon even without and index stone for 80 Magicka and 400 Fatigue points, but with the correct index you only need 5 Magicka and 25 Fatigue points.) The Index stones were always rare and now there seem to be only one or two of each left. Folms Mirel thinks he can duplicate the properties of an Index stone to make new ones. (And eventually he'll get the idea to combine the effects of multiple stones onto one Master Index stone.) Now all he needs is an adventurer to track down all of them for him and then test his copies.

To get started, take any Index to him. He'll explain his idea and ask for help. Or, he might just ask you about it sometime if you stop to chat. (You need to either visit a propylon chamber or talk to someone who mentions them if you don't have an index with you.)

He's already seen the one in Irgola's shop. In fact, he has already made a copy of it that needs testing. It doesn't work on the first try, so he'll need you to help him track down the right ingredients to complete the alchemy-like enchantment process and he'll make some new versions for you to test.

After you find out which of the new index stones really work, he'll copy any others you bring him. He's collecting all of the originals for himself, and he'll be selling copies to others, but you get one for free.

Ask around for rumors in the various cities and camps, you just might learn where to find your next Index.

The new Index stones can all be strapped to the wrist and worn to provide reasonable armor protection as a light shield. The ten new index stones (one for each Propylon) each have a relatively minor castable movement spell embedded. (The 10 spells are Mark, Recall, Almsivi Intervention, Divine Intervention, Jump, Levitate, Slowfall, SwiftSwim, WaterWalking, and WaterBreathing.)

The original failed stones will also eventually get enchanted and presented as rewards for the good work you do retrieving the original index stones.

Only the original game, no expansions or extenders are needed.
