Full DLC/Expansion longplay of the Knights of the Nine, the first expansion to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Here played the PS3 version, the GOTY release, continuing with my character with which I've finished the Main Quest of Oblivion nearly 2 years ago. Recorded in 1440p30 high bitrate.

NOTE: the recording came out REAL dark, and very oversatured (at first). Bump up the brightness on your device during those darker sections! Sorry for that, on my preview it looked completely normal. :C

Knights of the Nine is the first story expansion to Oblivion, not adding any "external" new area to the game unlike the Shivering Isles DLC (which is also coming soonTM to my channel), doesn't change any mechanics, gameplay etc. It's just basically a new optional questline, that can be activated at any given moment in time in the playthrough.

Summary of the plot (spoilers):
Knights of the Nine's quest begins as the player approaches the Chapel of Dibella in Anvil. The Anvil Chapel had recently been desecrated and everyone present had been killed. The quest proceeds as the player consults a prophet near the scene of the attack who indicates that the one responsible for the destruction is Umaril, an ancient Ayleid sorcerer-king, who escaped from his prison in the realm of Oblivion in order to destroy Cyrodiil. The prophet reveals that Umaril can only be defeated by a "Crusader" favoured by the gods and bearing the relics of Pelinal Whitestrake, the knight who had originally slew Umaril and banished his spirit to Oblivion.

The player must then make a cleansing pilgrimage to nine shrines across Cyrodiil to show their devotion to the Nine, the gods of Cyrodiil. Upon completing the pilgrimage, the player receives a vision from Whitestrake, who reveals the location of his tomb beneath a lake surrounding the Imperial City. Upon travelling to the tomb, the player discovers the Crusader's Helm, one of the Crusader relics which had belonged to Whitestrake. The player also finds the corpse of Sir Amiel, a Knight of the Nine, a member of an order dedicated to protecting the Crusader relics. Sir Amiel's diary, found on his body, reveals the location of the Priory of the Nine, which houses the Crusader Cuirass.

Upon arriving at the priory, the player must prove themselves worthy by defeating the ghost of the each old Knight of the Nine in single combat. Upon completing this trial, the player is given access to the Crusader Cuirass, and the ghosts then reveal clues about the last known location of each of the remaining relics. After collecting all eight Crusader relics, representing each of the original eight gods, the prophet gives the player the blessing of Talos, the ninth god, indicating that the blessing will allow him to completely destroy Umaril rather than simply re-banish him to Oblivion. The player, joined by new NPCs who have offered their assistance and now make up the new Knights of the Nine, attack Umaril's stronghold. The player then duels Umaril in the physical realm, before using the blessing of Talos to pursue Umaril into the spirit world and destroy his spirit. The player then wakes up in the priory among the new Knights of the Nine, who reveal that they had found the player's corpse in Umaril's stronghold. It is concluded that the Nine had resurrected the player, and the quest is complete.
