As the ultimate boss of the chamber, Morokei must be defeated, along with the two enthralled apprentices forever bound by Savos Aren to contain the priest, in order to obtain the Staff of Magnus. When speaking, the Dragonborn's magicka is quickly and completely drained.

While traversing the Labyrinthian, Morokei speaks to the Dragonborn -at first in the dragon language, then in Tamrielic. Savos bound the last two of his surviving friends as ethereal thralls, forever bound in indentured servitude, to hold a magical barrier around Morokei-preventing him from accumulating power and using the Staff of Magnus for wrongdoing. Unable to stop the priest due to his immense power, Savos was desperate to seal away Morokei permanently.

Savos Aren encountered Morokei many years prior to the events of Skyrimduring a failed expedition to the Labyrinthian with five fellow apprentices. The ultimate boss in Labyrinthian and secondary antagonist of the College of Winterhold questline, Morokei controls the Staff of Magnus.
