Wayshrine

From the OblivioWiki – your guide to everything Oblivion

A wayshrine is a shrine to one of the Nine Divines, which bestows a blessing when used. These shrines to the Nine Gods are scattered throughout the land; look for open stone circles surrounded by pillars. If you are worthy and pray there you will receive a blessing. The blessing depends on the wayshrine, generally fortifying the attribute most closely related to the Divine which the shrine honors. Once a Wayshrine of a Divine has been activated at least once, you can receive that Divine's blessing at any temple in Cyrodiil (by visiting the mini-altar under the Divine's image in the temple.)

The fame required to activate a Wayshrine is dependant on the last time you used one for that Divine; if your fame is greater than what it was the last time you activated one of the Divine's Wayshrines, you will receive the blessing. The Fame counter is separate for each Divine, so after you activate the Wayshrine for one Divine you can still use the shrines for other Divines without having to raise your fame, though you will still have to raise it to use another Wayshrine for that Divine. The minimum required fame to activate a Wayshrine is one.

Each Divine has three or four wayshrines scattered throughout Cyrodiil. Once you have visited at least one shrine for each Divine, you will receive the Greater Power Pilgrim's Grace, which fortifies all attributes by 10 for 300 seconds when cast. It will also reset your Infamy to zero.

Note that, during the Pilgrimage quest from the Knights of the Nine plug-in, the Prophet's map indicates one location for each shrine; you do not have to visit that specific location to complete the quest, any of the wayshrines for each god is acceptable. The map is not an accurate representation for the locations of the shrines, but is more of a guide to help you find them.
