Walkthrough

Accept the Contract – My Brother’s Keeper

Go into the Cheydinhal Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary. Go down into the Sanctuary and talk with Vicente Valtieri. He will be clear that your time working together is at an end. He will direct you to your new liason; Ocheeva. She will tell you about the basics of the contract. You are to eliminate the fallen Noble Faelian

Getting the information Vicente Valtieri
Vicente Valtieri explains about the Elf Community within Imperial City.

After that, you can take some time to talk with the other members of the Brotherhood to get some advice. The important one to talk to is Vicente Valtieri. He reveals that the City Altmer are a tight knit community that keeps an eye on each other. If you’re in the good graces of at least 1 elf in the Imperial City, you should be able to locate your target.


Locate Faelian

Faelian can be a little hard to locate. To start, just talk with any Elf you know that has a disposition of 50 or higher (or raise any of their dispositions to that point).

Talking to a friendly elf.

A good idea is to head into the Market District. If you’ve completed “Unfriendly Competition,” Thoronir is an excellent choice. Any one of the Elves throughout the district will work to get the information.

Entrance of the Tiber Septim Hotel

Now you need to head for the Talos District. Get to the center of the district and look to the Tiber Septim Hotel. You can easily find the publican, Augusta Calidia. She can give you some more information.

Talking with Atraena
Talking with Atraena

While here, you can also find and talk with Atraena. Raise her disposition of you (to 50 or more) to get more information on Faelian. She explains something of his schedule to you. She is worried this lifestyle will kill him.

At this point, Faelian will be marked on your map.


Eliminate Faelian

  • If you have trouble with the lock, tail Faelian a bit and you can pickpocket the key from him.

It’s time to send Faelian to Sithis. There are a few ways to do this. First, is to use Faelian’s Schedule. You will want to slip into Lorkmir’s House in the Elven Garden District and wait until sometime between 11am to 5pm. The door is Locked (Hard) Faelian will come in on his own during this time.

The door to Lorkmir’s House

You can alter this a bit just by talking with Faelian, if you have Skooma on hand. Talk with Faelian, give him the Skooma, and follow him to Lorkmir’s House.

Faelian wandering Lorkmir's House

Lorkmir’s House is recommended because Faelian is alone in here with no one around him. The corpse in the basement can’t report anything so it’s a non-issue.

Talking with Faelian

Faelian’s Schedule

  • 8pm-2am – Sleeps in the Tiber Septim Hotel
  • 2am-9am – Paces within the Abandoned Shack in the Waterfront District
  • 9am-11am – Travels to the West Gate of the Elven Gardens District
  • 11am-5pm – Paces Lorkmir’s House
  • 5pm-8pm – Resides in the Tiber Septim Hotel to spend time with Atraena


Getting Paid

Getting paid by Ocheeva

With Faelian dead, it’s time to head back to the Cheydinhal Sanctuary. If you completed the last contract’s bonus, you can enter using the Well. Otherwise, you need to go through the house one more time.

Inside, find and talk with Ocheeva. She will grant you your rewards. If you weren’t promoted after the last contract, you will become an Eliminator. If you completed the contract with a stealth kill, undetected by anyone, you will receive the Shadowhunt Bow.
