Detailed WalkthroughEdit

Getting dutiesEdit

After joining the Hammerfell Mages Guild in Dragonstar, Eranthos tells you to talk to Harelia for your first duties, she can be found at the top floor of the Guild of Mages. When talking to Harelia about duties she asks you to fetch her research notes from downstairs, they should be lying on a table, grab them and return them to Harelia. When you return the notes to Harelia she'll tell you about some research that she was doing that got taken by some people from Taurus Hall Legion Fort and she wants you to get it back. If you fail to get the research, she'll also take 6 diamonds so she can start anew.

Impounded researchEdit

Go to the Taurus Hall Legion Fort, you can find it a little bit south-east of Dragonstar. To get to the Fort you'll need to go to Dragonstar East and exit through the south-eastern gate. Once you pass the city gate cross the bridge and you should see the Taurus Hall Legion Fort, enter the Taurus Hall Legion Fort, Interior. Inside you is commander Veros, you can talk to him about the research but he isn't going to give it to you. There are a few ways to get the research, you can either;

  • Bribe Veros and once your disposition hits 80 he will believe you on your word, he'll tell you to go downstairs and tell the jailer, Paratius Barbula, to give you the package.
  • Bribe Paratius Barbula downstairs and once your disposition hits 70, you can give him 100 gold and he'll give you the package.
  • Upstairs behind a locked door you can find a letter implication Veros is dealing in illegal travel papers, confront him with the letter and he'll trade the package for your silence, go get it from Paratius Barbula downstairs.
  • Or you could just steal it if you have a high Sneak level, it is right behind the jailer downstairs, Paratius Barbula.

Return the packageEdit

Once you have the package or 6 diamonds, return to Harelia in the Guild of Mages and return the package or the diamonds to her, she'll thank you and give you 70 gold for your troubles, if you returned the package you'll also raise your disposition by 10 with Harelia. Talk about duties again if you are ready for your next orders.
