Side quest[]
Alatos and the Thieves' Guild[]
Alatos hires Gorion's Ward to retrieve three secret ingredients necessary for the creation of Halruaan skyships. This bit of thievery has been commissioned by Resar, an envoy of the mighty nation of Halruua. If you decline Alatos' offer, continually insult him, or insist that he "should be prepared to pay" Alatos and the entire guild will turn hostile. Choose the following option to accept the job and avoid combat:
"Seems a fairly straightforward bit of burglary, and well within my ability. I accept this challenge, and hope it increases my standing within the guild."
Alatos' reply: "As it should be! Now that you have agreed, the facilities of the guild are at your disposal. Feel free to make use of them, and make your presence known to the other members. You have my permission, so they will be less likely to kill you on sight. As for your mission, you have a tenday to complete it. Informants have told me that the Duchess intends to take possession of the components that tenth day, and the exchange will be hosted by Oberon at his estate. As I see it, you have several options. Directly 'persuade' any of the involved parties to hand over the items, or burgle them out from under their noses. Good luck."
Journal Update: "I have been hired by Alatos Thuibuld to do a bit of burglary. I am to sneak into Oberon's estate and steal several magical components from the three daughters of Shandalar. These components are the ingredients for creating a Halruaan flying ship, and the Halruaans want their secret preserved and the items stolen. Alatos suggested that I either 'persuade' the daughters to release the items, or spirit them out from under their noses. The items are as follows: a spellbook that outlines the rituals needed, a statuette of indeterminate origin, and a fragment of a powerful artifact. I am to return to the Thieves' Guild when the items are in my possession."
Upon completion of the quest, Resar will thank you and apologize that he must now kill you due to being a potential "loose end". Only Resar will attack you, which does not damage your Reputation with the guild (unless, of course, you cause collateral damage to any of the thieves while fighting Resar).
If you have completed both quests given to you by Narlen Darkwalk beforehand, he will backstab Resar (in a cutscene) and no fighting will take place.
