WalkthroughEdit

This quest starts when you find a note in the mineworkers' barracks in Galu Oasis. It tells of a woman named Larsa who's looking for her father. Go north to the Arena and check in The Limping Sandrunner. You'll find another note there, which points toward the Silver Mine. Near the mine, you'll run into a slave who, for some water, will tell you that he met Larsa a few days before; she was going west.

Some time later, you'll find her journal, which says she went north to the Dead Mine. Her dead body is lying outside, obviously murdered. Her ghost appears to you and points toward the Assassin Castle. If you don't have access to the castle, the quest ends here; otherwise, you can go in and investigate. What you're looking for is in Alberto's quarters, on the floor near the door - a blood-smeared dagger. Picking it up will give you the final quest update (as well as a nice weapon).

10 A small note in the miners' barracks. It seems that a young woman named Larsa is in search of something or someone? What, exactly, is not clear from the records. It looks like she wanted to go north.

Notes
  • 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 random order.
  • 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.
  •   It is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage ODDDesertFindeVaterQuest 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. See SetStage for more information.
