The Amulet of Mara is an enchanted amulet and a symbol of Mara, goddess of love. Once the Dragonborn speaks to Maramal about marriage, wearing an amulet of Mara unlocks dialogue with certain characters, allowing the option of marriage. An amulet of Mara is acquired from the quest "The Book of Love," or one can be purchased for 200 File:GoldIcon.png from Maramal. Rarely, some Hold Guards wear it and can be pickpocketed from them. Looting and wearing the enchanted versions of the Amulet of Mara found on Characters will not unlock marriage dialogue unless Maramal has been spoken to.
