She tells you how that little Aretino boy was looking for the Dark Brotherhood, for Astrid and her associates. You can reply: A problem? I don't think I like where this is going. Old crone had it coming, and you saved a group of Urchins, to boot.
Old hag gets butchered in her own orphanage. That's more than can be said for old Grelod. You're warm, dry and still very much alive. You are awaken in a small shack, in front of you is a Dark Brotherhood Assassin named Astrid. Get a room, and have your character sleep in the bed. The mysterious note as a black paw on it, and underneath it says "We Know". But he was paid a hefty sum to get the note to you. He does not know who the note is from, he just saw a creepy fellow, black robes. A Courier sometimes will catch up with you, has something to deliver for your hands only. Leave Windhelm, and go to one of the inns in any of the cities. After you have informed a guard, he/she will tell you to find a general at Dragons bridge and pass the message on - still in disbelief that you were able to take down the leader of the Dark Brotherhood.Įither way you will still be able to get into the sanctuary and claim the Stone of Barenziah, the Word of Power ( Marked for Death), and a few skill books.This quest is unlocked after completing "Innocence Lost". Solitude may be the best destination to quick-travel to though, seeing as it is nearest the shack. You can literally walk up to any guard and tell them of Astrid's death.

You are now able to set the captives free and instructed to inform a guard of Astrid's death. Until a new quest pops up "Destroy the Dark Brotherhood". Kill Astrid and you will find the key to escape the shack on her body, the quest for the Dark Brotherhood will come up as failed. Well, if you get to talking to the three captives that kneel before you (whether out of basic interest or earnestly trying to discover which one could have had a 'hit' placed on them) you will discover that one is a mother of six, the other a soldier and another a Khajiit who's already had a contract taken out on him before.Killing the Khajiit may ease the consciences of some, but for others there is always the option of killing Astrid. A hooded woman known as Astrid tells you that she is from the Dark Brotherhood and that you owe a debt to them.To repay it, you must simply kill one of the three captives in the shack. Speak to Astrid for your welcome package for officially joining the Brotherhood and also end the quest. Walk up to the creepy-looking door and respond with “ Silence, my brother” to be welcomed in. Kill all three to impress Astrid if you want.Īt this point, she extends an invitation to join the secret society of assassins, gives you the key to the shack, and urges you to enter the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary near Falkreath. A hooded woman known as Astrid tells you that she is from the Dark Brotherhood and that you owe a debt to them.To repay it, you must simply kill one of the three captives in the shack (to kill one is optional). You will feel well rested when you awake (unless you have the blood of the werewolf, which would mean that you do not get any sort of rest), but you’ll not be where you last laid yourself to rest. Then go to sleep in any bed for any amount of time. After completing Innocence Lost, wait for a courier to deliver a message from the Dark Brotherhood (if after waiting for a while and the courier doesn't show, just fast travel or take a carriage to Falkreath which is the closest city to the sanctuary.
