The corresponding ducal quarters then become yours, and you can safely store items in any of the containers within the ducal quarters, except for one respawning food cupboard.

There are some other containers in the Shivering Isles that do not respawn and can be safely used for storage. Other examples include the jewelry box and dresser in Hirrus Clutumnus ' house that becomes available at the end of the Final Resting quest.

However, leaving items in other random containers throughout the Shivering Isles will, in general, cause the items to disappear when the container resets see Containers for details. Another option is to return to Tamriel and use any house s that you own in Tamriel. At all points during the Shivering Isles quests it is always possible although at times somewhat awkward to return to Tamriel see also Will I be able to return to Tamriel after starting Shivering Isles?

As you travel through the Shivering Isles, you will encounter silvery obelisks. At some stages of the Main Quest these obelisks will be activated and defended by a Priest of Order and multiple Knights of Order. Initially there will be just 3 knights, but more will constantly appear until the obelisk is deactivated.

See Obelisks for more details. At each point in the main quest where you choose a side passing through the Gates of Madness; how to treat the adventurers in Baiting the Trap ; who to help and which flame to light in The Cold Flame of Agnon ; Ritual of Accession you can freely choose whether to take the Manic or Demented option. Each choice is independent of the others. If you want, you can choose Mania for one quest, then choose Dementia for the following quest. The Ritual of Accession is the one decision that has more long-lasting implications.
