Its quite annoying, this one. Without giving it away, think about who are your suspects and rifle through their stuff, and also look over the castle at everything. There are three clues if I remember correctly.

The best thing to do, is after questioning everyone, read over the quest log at what they said, and try visiting some of the locations mentioned, that's what I did.

The places to look are listen earlier in this thread, if you dont want to have to hunt about

(they were listed for me

)

The answer is in the three stories you are told: one of them contains a detail which can't be true if the other two are telling the truth. But yes, you need to find three clues. You will need to search pretty much the whole castle as the three places concerned are pretty widely spaced.

I'm a bit "stuck" on one of the Dark Brotherhood quests - Spoiler alert:

Its the one where you got to kill the entire Darconis family. When I get to Caelia, the guard in Leyawiin, I can't kill her without getting a bounty on my head - even though no one ever sees me killing her. Inside, outside, whatever, I get a whopping 1000 bounty.
Is it possible to do it, or have I just gotta do it and make a run for the nearest TG member to remove the bounty?

Hawklord · 22 Apr 2006 at 13:46

Do the cat 6.4's allow hdr and AA or do you have to use the 6.3's and chuck patch still? Does the patch only work for crossfire or will it work with a single card?
thanx

Hector · 22 Apr 2006 at 14:04

Matmulder, highlight this lot <you just got to get the bounty, shes a guard. if you have the grey cowl then perhaps that may help, although it's aginst TG rules to murder so there may be a side effect when killing with the cowl on??> colour used btw is #1C5780, it really could do with be added to the colour selection menu for ease..

Hawklord, the 6.4's didn't work for me so i gess not.. 6.3's will work fine on a single card, i had to tick catalystAI in the CCC and set it to standard to get the HRD+AA to work.

a tip, if your character is sliding and walking abotu a pace every 3 seconds, check your gamepad

thought it was some kind of bug :/

Spoiler: If you follow her, you will see her go into a house and sit down for a few hours, this is the time to strike. I was already head of the thieves guild at this point, so I equipped the gray cowl, killed her with it on, then took the gray cowl off after I had killed her. Because people don't recognise you with the cowl on, when you take it off you are a different person, and thus (or so I believe) any bounty's you have stay with the cowl, so you have 0 bounty when you take it off.

Spolier (maybe): It is only against the TG rules to murder whilst on a quest, so if you murder someone at any other time, it's fine.

I personally ran straight up to her, chop, chop she was dead and then high tailed it out of there, laughing all the way to the bank or should that be the DB
