Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Nazir.
  2. Pay Nazir a fine.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

This quest is received after attacking a member of the Dark Brotherhood, accidentally or not. Pay a fine to Nazir to get back in the good graces of the family, which completes this quest. You cannot accept or complete any contracts until you pay the fine and Dark Brotherhood members will refuse to talk to you while suspended from the guild.

The fine will be 500 gold if you are a regular member, but if you have completed Hail Sithis!, the amount will be reduced to 300 gold.

Notes[edit]

  • The Spectral Assassin is considered a member of the Dark Brotherhood, so if you attack him to the point that he turns hostile then you will have to pay a fine.
  • Even if you are not a member of the Dark Brotherhood, this quest can still be triggered while completing the quest Destroy the Dark Brotherhood! if you calm any of the assassins and talk to them before you kill them. If calmed, Nazir can still be paid the 500 gold, after which he will repeatedly tell you to go back and speak with Astrid (even though the quest can only begin if she is already dead).

Bugs[edit]

  • All contract victims are placed in the Dark Brotherhood faction at some point, and feeding on them as a vampire, or their corpse as a cannibal (with the Ring of Namira) may trigger this quest, though it won't actually begin until the next time you talk to a Dark Brotherhood member.
  • Sometimes this quest might be triggered after you have fully upgraded the Dawnstar Sanctuary.
  • Sometimes this quest might be triggered even after completing Destroy the Dark Brotherhood! if you use one of the Dark Brotherhood characters as a Dead Thrall. Needless to say, it cannot be completed.
  • Causing damage to the assassin's corpse in Hag's End using the spell Unbounded Storms seems to have triggered this quest. ?

Notes
  • Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, 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.
  • If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
  • On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage DBEviction stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest DBEviction.
