Detailed WalkthroughEdit

 
Marked target locations

Speaker Terenus has a task for you. He needs you to kill someone. That "someone" will be one of the following individuals:

  • Alard Cerone, a Breton who has seen too much (forked northern room, on the top floor near the back)
  • Andilo Andrano, a Dunmer with a spectacular inheritance (in the large southern room, upstairs on the far left)
  • Aojee-Ei, an Argonian poking his nose where it doesn't belong (the top rightmost room of the area)
  • Dolwinora, a Bosmer who wishes to frame her husband (the square room directly north of the initial entrance to the sewer)
  • Geon Alinie, a Breton chronicler hot on the Brotherhood's heels (location?)
  • Herminius Andus, a renowned equestrian (in the room branching west off of the large southern room, also found in hidden room branching off the upper east square room, below the "T" room)
  • Lamzakha, a conniving skooma dealer (in a hidden room at the northernmost part of the area, go upstairs to the right then jump across through vines into the hidden room)
  • Talrahal, a Redguard healer (in the westernmost room)

Speaker Terenus will likely have given you several tasks to complete while you're in the sewers. Your first objective is to either kill a secondary mark or destroy an item— this item may be a Dwarven Relic or a Custom-Made Hookah, depending on the group inhabiting the area. The secondary target is there as a challenge, and the item to destroy is either too powerful to exist or has great sentimental value to someone. The Dwarven Relic will be located on the right-hand side at the bottom of the stairs in the mid-northern chamber of the Sewer Tenement (on the map provided, this is the large chamber with three possible target locations in it), next to Geon Alinie if he's present; the Hookah, instead, is located in the square-shaped, southern chamber (the only large chamber with no targets), in the bottom right corner.

Your secondary objective will be to either:

  • Murder your target with a poison equipped on the weapon slot you have active when you make the kill, or
  • Kill your target with the Blade of Woe.

Finally, you'll want to escape the Sewer Tenement in under two minutes after the kill, as Terenus doesn't want people poking around the scene of an assassination. Stepping into the entrance area counts as escaping the sewer tenement. If you manage to stay within the zone after your main mark has been killed, the Overseer will appear two minutes after the assassination, failing this tertiary objective.

You do not have to actually leave the area for the game to count you as having "escaped". As long as you make it to the ladder room, you're good, as the quest will update. Climb the ladder when you're ready to leave and speak with Terenus for your reward.

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.
