Detailed WalkthroughEdit

At The College of Aldmeri Propriety, you are accosted by Baham, a student. She seeks your help to investigate the abusive behavior of some of the Thalmor teachers and suggests you to start by talking to Tanion, the headmaster. When you find and ask him about those rumors, he tells you that even if the instructors are strict, there's nothing wrong with it, as students must be trained for the rough times ahead. Then he bids you to see by yourself and observe how classes take place within the main school building. As you witness the mistreatments, you can ask some more questions to Ilara in the Khajiiti classroom and to Borchon in the Bosmeri classroom. When you've finished with it, you can complete your tour of the academy by sparring with the instructors and then talk to the headmaster again. He asks you if you've seen that the teachings are rough, but fair, and you have the choice to tell him the truth or lie, to the same result.

Now that you've witnessed the abusive conditions of study firsthand, you return to Baham and asks how you can help. Students aren't treated after being beaten, so they need bandages. Nurad have some, making him the first she asks you to seek out. You can then give the medical supplies to Brinthir and Thalorel to help them feel better before once again report to Baham.

But when you arrive, the teachers will be taking Ilara to Saltspray Cave to "correct her behavior", and Baham needs your help to arm the students and go rescue her before something bad happens. She knows of a Baandari trader that could help in the matter : Zaban, the same that you've seen threatening Tanion the first time you met the headmaster. Unfortunately, the Khajiit has been assassinated by an Heritance Cutthroat. The students don't have the choice and ask you to save Ilara from Saltspray Cave yourself as soon as possible.

Inside the cave, you come across some Heritance soldiers and discover the true colors of the headmaster and his instructors. Your only choice is to kill them, save Ilara from death and take her out of here to make sure she'll be all right.

Finally, you report to Baham who thanks you for liberating the school and gives you the Thalmor Helm as a reward.

NotesEdit

  • All quest-related NPCs, except for Baham and the Sparring Proctors, won't exist at the college before starting the quest.
  • It's possible to beat the same Sparring Proctor four times in a row to complete the objective.
  • Zaban's letter lacks the readable yellow glow on it.
  • Saltspray Cave can be entered before starting the quest, but quest-related NPCs can already be found inside which can spoil some future events in the quest.
  • If you travel through here on non-quest related business you can overhear the teachers ("proctors") being unkind to the students--especially the Kahjiit.

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
