Detailed Walkthrough [edit]

With Sun-in-Shadow's influence inside the Telvanni growing, she'southward begun planning her side by side advancement. Visiting her will have her welcome y'all to her home: "Ah, what a pleasant surprise. Stay a while, won't you?" Speaking to her will accept her explain her most contempo crunch: "Always a pleasance to come across you, sera. I'one thousand glad you dropped by. I could employ a friend right now."

What'south going on?: I merely received a summons from the Quango. Typically I'd exist overjoyed. After all, I simply submitted a petition for advancement to oathman. But the Council never acts on petitions this quickly. Someone'southward arranging pieces on the game board, I know it."

What are you lot asking me to exercise?: "If a member of the House plans to spring a trap, I need to project force. The councilors know you've assisted me in the past. If you announced before the Mouths on my behalf, information technology puts the magisters and I on equal footing. Information technology might even salve my life."

All right. I'll go to the Council House in your stead.: "Thank you, my friend. Be conscientious."

The Council Objects [edit]

Travel to the Council Bedroom on Shadow's behalf, to detect that deliberations accept already gone poorly for her:

Ralasa Delvi: "My patron, Magister Gothren, opposes whatever further honors for the slave daughter. Oh wait, the cadger sent a representative. Such pretensions."

Angharal Suth: "Approach, emissary. You lot may inform your benefactress, Sunday-in-Shadow, that the Quango has elected to reject her petition."

Ralasa Delvi: "Exist sure to add that all farther petitions will meet the same fate. Cats and lizards have no place in our Great Firm."

Eraven Onthim: "Honestly, Ralasa...."

Angharal Suth: "Don't worry, Ralasa. The emissary will give Sun-in-Shadow a total account of this meeting. I have no doubtfulness."

Speaking to the councilors for more than information, while it will confirm that Ralasa is the one behind the failure of the petition, is unnecessary. Speaking to Suth volition have begin the post-obit chat: "At that place is no greater virtue than ambition, but I'1000 agape Sun-in-Shadow'due south enthusiasm has rubbed a few of our number the wrong way."

Is there some reason I can give Sun-in-Shadow for the council's refusal?: "Beyond the obvious? Your friend possesses a keen mind and great natural talent, but even the Great House Telvanni is not above simple prejudice. The circumstances of her birth brand advancement... complicated."

It seems that Ralasa Delvi is particularly opposed to Sun-in-Shadow.": "Aye. Ralasa hates practically everyone, but she'southward developed a item distaste for Sun-in-Shadow. I can't tell if it's truly the will of Gothren or only a personal vendetta. Both of them revile bottom races. A perfect lucifer if ever there was i."

Do yous accept any advice I can give Sun-in-Shadow?: "I would counsel patience, but I have no illusions. Lord's day-in-Shadow volition dismiss such advice out of hand. Her dreams can but be deferred for so long. I say but this—whatever she plans to do, make certain she does it cautiously."

Thank you for your fourth dimension.: "Sun-in-Shadow will stand before us again. I only promise that information technology's for a promotion and non something less pleasant. Believe information technology or non, these meetings can make it worse. Award to you and your Firm, sera. Bye."

Vaelin Oren will accept piffling to say: "This will have to wait, sera. I need a nap. These meetings exhaust me."

Llayne Sadri will have her give you a courteous comment of support: "If you come up to inquire me if I oppose Dominicus-in-Shadow's rising in rank, the answer is no. Nor does Mistress Dratha. At present, if you'll excuse me, I must become dorsum to Tel Mora."

Eraven Onthim volition give you a polite greeting and apology: "Honor to yous, sera. Sorry about your friend's petition. She may arise to oathman eventually. Of class, with Ralasa speaking for Gothren, she may have to wait for a expert long while."

Speaking to Ralasa, especially if you lot are a fauna race, will have her make her disdain even more clear: "I thought I made it clear that I have no involvement in speaking to beasts. Now, constrict your tail and leave me exist." Alternatively, she just says, "Come to have words with me, have you? Well, permit'south get information technology over with. I have things to practice."

Why are yous so fixated on preventing Sun-in-Shadow from advancing in House Telvanni?: "I simply speak for Muthsera Gothren. His distaste for Sun-in-Shadow should come every bit no surprise. Beasts have no place in the Firm. You may desire to rethink the company you keep, outlander. Just a scrap of advice."

It seems like you really hate Argonians and Khajiit.: "Oh come up now. I don't hate yous. I just see the truth of your nature. You beasts make wonderful servants, but to pretend y'all possess the same faculties every bit mer, or fifty-fifty men, is absurd. You were born to serve. Merely as nosotros were built-in to rule." / "I don't hate them. I just see the truth of their nature. Argonians and Khajiits make wonderful servants, but to pretend they possess the same faculties every bit mer, or even men, is cool. They were born to serve, merely equally we were born to rule."

If you lot are so free with communication, what would you suggest Sun-in-Shadow?: "I suggest she leave Vvardenfell. Travel to Daggerfall or Wayrest and join the Mages Guild. I hear they take anyone. She would fit right in. The fact is she has no identify hither. She may have earned her freedom, but she will never be a true Telvanni."

Outside the quango coming together hall y'all volition see Sun-in-Shadow already waiting impatiently: "Sorry, I grew tired of waiting. I received more than a few sideward glances on my way over. What happened in there?"

The Council rejected your petition.: "Oh. I see. Maybe I was too impatient— requested it also soon. Damn. Did they give any reason? Was at that place anyone who spoke out against it?"

Gothren's Rima oris, Ralasa Delvi, seemed dead set against it.: "Of course information technology was Ralasa. That pig has hated me from the start. Gothren's not fond of Argonians, but this is clearly personal. Would you human action as my emissary once more? If y'all go to Tel Aruhn and speak to Gothren directly, maybe he can settle this."

I'll try. I have a few questions though.: "I'll reply what I tin, of form."

Why do the magisters have people who deed as their Mouth?: "Well-nigh Telvanni magisters prefer to be left alone. They dislike and mistrust each other, so they appoint Mouths to handle business outside their towers. Of course, the magister'due south wishes and the Mouth's wishes ofttimes go tangled. It's imperfect."

Sounds like it: "Just trust me, it's better this way. If the councilors had to deal with each other straight there would be no peace in Vvardenfell. You lot wouldn't jam a bunch of alits into a pen together. Mages need room to stretch—room to breathe."

Seems like Telvanni mages need a lot of things.: "I never said Firm Telvanni was perfect. Nosotros accept the skilful with the bad. When I sit on the Council I'll put things right, how'due south that?"

You seem to be able to practice what you want every bit a retainer. Is the oathman rank and so important?: "Yep! When I achieve the rank of oathman, I should be able to purchase a slave. I'll free Eoki, and we'll toast to our success. That is what we've been working toward, right? I know that some of this feels a little unsavory, but it's necessary."

None of this troubles yous?: "A Telvanni mage doesn't have fourth dimension to be troubled. Everyday I learn something new. Everyday I peel dorsum one mystery to reveal another ten beneath information technology. If this is the cost of that kind of discovery, I'll pay it! That came out poorly. I ... never mind."

What more tin can yous tell me about Magister Gothren?: "Magister Gothren reigns over Tel Aruhn—the fungal belfry w of here. He has a sour reputation, simply remains one of the most powerful mages in Tamriel. I never had cause to work for him, but Eoki did. He doesn't like to talk well-nigh it."

Do you really think he'south going to listen to me?: "I'd be lying if I said aye. But if there's anyone who could get through to him, it's you. Gothren keeps a few "pupils"—henchmen more like. Yous'll probably have to get through one or ii before he'll deign to speak with you lot. But be careful."

No Solicitors [edit]

The journeying to Tel Aruhn is a fairly short, and safety one. Once at the gate, notwithstanding, a baby-sit named Midiri Berathi will prevent your entrance: "You got nil-spit in your ears? Tel Aruhn's closed. Jog on, ya fetching nchow."

I'd like to speak to Magister Gothren.: "Oh that'southward rich! You really think Magister Gothren would open his doors to a tail-arsed s'wit like you? The master'south non seeing whatsoever visitors. Not today, not tomorrow, and not side by side week. So shove off, you animate being." / "Yeah? Well I need a potent drink and a skillful plow, but you don't encounter me knocking on strangers' doors bellyaching nearly information technology. Magister Gothren's not seeing any visitors. Not today, not tomorrow, and not next calendar week. So shove off, guar-face."

At this betoken, you'll exist given the option to create a distraction with a slave, persuade the baby-sit, or bribe her to allow yous inside. Regardless of the path you choose to get around the baby-sit, one time inside, you'll find the Magister in the centre of reaming ane of his subordinates:

Magister Gothren: "Arith, Giravel, I've had plenty of your excuses. Ralasa made your job plain. Find those thieves!"

Arith Sendrul: "I'one thousand lamentable, Magister. It will be done."

Magister Gothren: (to you) "Whatsoever it is you want, talk to my cringing assistant."

The cringing assistant Gothren is referring to is Sendrul, who desperately could apply your help: "Ah, greetings. I'm sorry y'all had to see that. Magister Gothren's really quite charming once you get to know him. Honestly, he wouldn't accept yelled if Ralasa's little snoop, Captain Giravel, hadn't interfered!"

I demand to speak with the magister well-nigh my acquaintance, Sun-in-Shadow's, petition for advancement.: "Ah, that. I'k sorry, simply Ralasa is determined to keep your Argonian from advancing. Typical. I should exist Mouth! Say, I might have an idea. The thieves Muthsera Gothren mentioned fled to Shashpilamat. Could you call back the appurtenances they stole?"

I could, simply why should I?: "Spoken like a truthful Telvanni. If y'all bring the goods to me in Sadrith Mora, I'll take credit for their rubber return. Ralasa'due south gone to great lengths to discredit me, you run into. My muthsera knows this. If I succeed, he'll see that I am the fitter servant!"

How does that assist Sun-in-Shadow?: "Muthsera Gothren will undoubtedly promote me to Mouth! So, in commutation for your help, I'll support your Argonian's petition. One good turn and all that. What practise you say?"

It'southward a deal. I'll run across you in Sadrith Mora, but I have a few questions first.: "I can't wait to see the look on Ralasa's face when Muthsera Gothren strips her of her title! And the groveling... the groveling will be delicious!"

I accept some questions.: "Of course. What tin can the future Oral fissure of Muthsera Gothren help y'all with?"

What did the thieves steal from Magister Gothren?: "A not bad many things, I'chiliad lamentable to say. They pilfered an ancient tome, a rare pendant, and a purse full of gold. Of course, my master was most aggrieved by the loss of several slaves. Strong workers, all. Muthrsera Gothren is sick with worry."

I am not a slave trader.: "Right. I'm sure that's a delicate subject area for someone of your... is "brood" the word? Truth be told, I've e'er been a trigger-happy proponent of brute rights. If you only render the tome, pendant, and gold, our scheme will probably notwithstanding work." / "No, of course not. I didn't mean to assume. Truth be told, I've ever been a vehement, but very quiet proponent of creature rights. If y'all return the tome, pendant, and gold, I think Muthsera Gothren will notwithstanding promote me—albeit with a heavy heart."

How did thieves manage to become into Tel Aruhn to steal things?: "Well I tin can't say for sure, only in that location's a expert gamble the missing slaves stole Muthsera Gothren's property earlier fleeing Tel Aruhn. Ropefish and other people-smugglers sometimes take magicked items every bit payment."

And so would they be doubly punished if they were returned?: "I'm sure I wouldn't know. My master has a kind and gentle disposition, only children sometimes demand discipline, aye? Information technology would really be Slavemaster Arenim'southward prerogative. Unfortunately, she tin can be ... irascible."

Yous seem very quick to cut a deal with a stranger.: "You lot should know by now that Telvanni alliances oft first as fluid diplomacy. Not that our relationship is fluid! What nosotros've got going here? Rock-solid. Sun-in-Shadow's intentions align with my own. It only makes sense that we should exist partners."

As you set off on the mission to recover the stolen goods, one Captain Giravel can be found, having spied on your coming together:

Captain Giravel: "Take this report to Rima oris Ralasa. Immediately."

Telvanni Guard: "Yeah, Captain. It will be done."

Giravel, like Ralasa, volition suggest you not to interfere with Telvanni: "Here'southward a bit of free communication—if yous cross Ralasa Delvi, yous cross Magister Gothren. Believe me when I say you do not want to cross Magister Gothren."

Who are you lot?: "Captain Giravel, anointed ombudsman to Mouth Ralasa Delvi. Noticed y'all upstairs. Magister Gothren has piddling patience for interfering strangers. Fifty-fifty less for interfering assistants like Arith Sendrul."

I'll keep that in mind.: "I hope you lot volition. For your sake."

Murder, Theft, Bad Pastries, and Other Crimes [edit]

As Arith Sendrul promised, the goods tin can be found in Shashpilamat. Unfortunately, the goods had already been traded away to smugglers by the slaves who stole them. Speaking to the slave leader Zashanti will have her explain: "You stink of incense and hookah fume. Did that animate being Gothren send you?"

Something like that. His servant sent me here to gather up Gothren'southward stolen appurtenances.: "We are non appurtenances! Zashanti and her friends prepare to leave this cursed island. No more lashings. No more than bitter food. But the light of the moons drifting across the Topal Bounding main. Nosotros simply took Gothren'southward property to pay the smugglers."

I won't go along you from escaping. I only need the tome, the gilt, and the amulet.: "Vivid moons. This one thanks you lot, walker. We stored Gothren'south trinkets in crates nearby. The smugglers will groan at their absenteeism, but nosotros would rather face up the wilds alone than become back to Tel Aruhn."

I'll tell Gothren I couldn't find yous. Expert luck.: "Wait. What was that dissonance?"

At this signal, the Captain volition appear, with a contingent of guards:

Captain Giravel: "Greetings, outlander. Sedura Ralasa sends her regards. Gathering up these slaves on our own would take been exhausting"

Zashanti: "No, no, no."

Captain Giravel: "Damned cats. You are going back to Tel Aruhn. Move out!"

Conversation with the Captain will accept him clarify on Ralasa'south plot: "Don't kicking yourself over Ralasa outmaneuvering yous. Trust me, you never had a chance."

Ralasa Delvi sent you?: "Of grade. You don't think she'd let that apartment-headed Arith out-nix her did you? Oh, and don't bother looking for those other stolen goods. My troops have the situation well in hand. Thanks for all your help, n'wah. So long."

With Arith's plot foiled at the get-go, the just remaining choice is to return to Sun-in-Shadow to see if she has an alternative strategy. Returning to her home will reveal her and Arith conversing and formalizing their alliance: "One time once more, it's been a pleasure. Farewell, Dominicus-in-Shadow." Arith will say, as he leaves every bit you arrive. Conversing with Dominicus-in-Shadow will accept her be elated to see you lot once again: "There you are! I'm glad you lot're dorsum. I just had a fruitful conversation with our friend Arith. Seems that I'm non the only 1 Ralasa'south holding back. I call back it might exist time for a less conventional strategy."

What exercise you mean past less conventional?: "I underestimated Ralasa, I see that now. She plays the game far meliorate than I do. The only way to win a game like this is to eliminate the player."

Await, are you request me to assassinate Ralasa Delvi? That's your plan?: "I know how it sounds. I accept no pleasure in it—it's just an unfortunate necessity. Half the Telvanni hierarchy arranged an opening at some point in their rise to power. If y'all bargain with Ralasa, Arith takes her place. It's the all-time play, sera."

At this point, you can either choose to be a willing participant, or insist that y'all will not assassinate Ralasa. Choosing the latter option will have Sun-in-Shadow instead requite y'all Pearl-dusted Marshmerrow Cakes to give to Ralasa as a class of bribery, simply for the cakes to be poisoned. Choosing more willing murder will have her say: "I knew yous'd meet reason. Trust me, no 1 deserves this fate more than Ralasa. Yous may have a Telvanni's heart afterward all. Arith told me that Ralasa entered her room in the Council House simply a few minutes agone. Skilful luck, my friend. Be discreet!"

Travel to Ralasa'southward chambers, and you lot'll find a Khajiit slave named Tuharrii outside: "If you are looking for that evil tempered Telvanni witch, she went into that room."

The slave'due south management testify true, with Ralasa waiting in the next room, ready for battle: "So, the lizard thinks she can kill me? Come on then! I'll have her skin for gloves, after I deal with you lot of course!"

After defeating Ralasa, travel exterior, where Sun-in-Shadow will be waiting for y'all: "It'southward done? Cheers, sera. Not many people would have a life for their friends. At least I hope we're friends. The Business firm... it makes it difficult to tell sometimes. Arith and I spoke just moments agone. Things should move apace."

I hope information technology was worth information technology.: "Arith assures me that the Quango will accept my petition now .So yes, I'd call this a success. Hopefully, no one volition give me cause to practise this again in the future. Once again, yous have my thanks, sera. I hope you volition consider working with me over again."

All this may backfire on you, Dominicus-in-Shadow.: "I acknowledge, our treatment of the Ralasa situation was stressful. For both of us. I hope nosotros tin motion by it though, every bit friends. Come up visit me some time. I'll make it up to you, all right? I bought some very fine Khajiiti tea I've been dying to effort."

I'll think about it, just I'one thousand not your assassin.: "I understand. This may surprise you, just the higher I climb and the more powerful I get, the lonelier it gets. A truthful Telvanni life always involves some seclusion, but I value our friendship—and Eoki's affection. I'd hate to lose either of you.

I understand. I'll stop by when I can.

Traveling to Dominicus-in-Shadow's domicile will reveal a more grisly scene, however, as a magister makes a move.
