The final morphable reward for this year is the new home, the Wildgrown Chapel of Julianos located in the West Weald zone. To collect this home, you will need to first get all the fragments and combine them to create the Stonewisp of Truth and Law pet. Players will then have to collect fragments to morph the pet into the home. There are three fragments available during this event: Dimunitive Runed Archway, Heavy Philosophical Tomes and Lawkeeper’s Lectern. You can find these fragments and other rewards at the Impresario Vendor, located outside cities like Rimmen, Vivec City, or Daggerfall.
