The phrase "Green Emperor Way Where Tower Touches Midday Sun" is a riddle from the main quest "The Path of Dawn" in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It refers to a specific location and time to advance the quest.

  • You need to go to Green Emperor Way, which is the central district of the Imperial City where the Imperial Palace and the White Gold Tower are located.
  • At exactly midday (between 12:00 and 12:59 PM in-game time), stand in front of the Tomb of Prince Camarril, which is located among the graves southwest of the White Gold Tower.
  • At this time, a glowing map of Cyrodiil will appear on the tomb’s surface, which you can then activate to progress the quest and reveal the location of the Mythic Dawn Shrine (Dagon Shrine).
  • The runes on the tomb glow only from about 11:48 AM to 12:30 PM, so timing is important.
  • You must have read all four volumes of the Mythic Dawn Commentaries before this will work.
  • The clue is not about the tower’s shadow but about the sun’s position relative to the tower at midday.

In summary, the tower "touches" the midday sun at the Tomb of Prince Camarril on Green Emperor Way, and this is where you activate the quest item at noon to proceed
