Quest-Related EventsEdit
If she is spoken to before the quest, she establishes herself.
- "Another of Aera's guardians? Save your breath. I refuse to run. If Betar-Nes was the best the Worm Cult can send against me, I have little to fear."
You can start the quest directly from her if you completed Through the Shroud:
- I'm a friend of Aera's. I'm just here to help.
If you were recognized as the King's Arrow from completing the Eastmarch questline:
- "The King's Arrow, yes? Well met.
Tell no one that Betar-Nes was a member of the Worm Cult. I won't have Nimalten fall into chaos. We're on his trail. My advisor and the court mage search for any hint of the cult as we speak." - How goes the investigation?
- "Too slow for my liking. My advisor Borodin is at the inn, asking questions of the townfolk. My court mage, Golun, has a theory about the Worm Cult's plan. He's at the Mages Guild, doing research
Perhaps you can give them a hand?" - I'll do what I can.
She must be spoken to in order to further the investigation.
- "What brings you to my hall? You don't look in need of a thane's help. And if you are with Aera, I am not in need of her help, either."
If you helped Aera before:
- I'm just here to help.
- "A friend of Aera's? Well then, welcome to Nimalten."
- Aera and I met at Bal Foyen.
- "The King's Arrow, yes? Well met.
Tell no one that Betar-Nes was a member of the Worm Cult. I won't have Nimalten fall into chaos. We're on his trail. My advisor and the court mage search for any hint of the cult as we speak." - Betar-Nes … your housecarl was a Worm Cultist?
- "Keep that to yourself. I won't have Nimalten fall into chaos. We're on his trail. My advisor and the court mage search for any hint of the cult as we speak."
- How goes the investigation?
- "Slow. My advisor Borodin is at the inn, questioning townfolk. My court mage, Golun, is at the Mages Guild, researching the Worm Cult. Would you help them?"
- I'll do what I can.
If you helped King Jorunn at Skuldafn:
- I can help you, as I've helped others before.
- "The King's Arrow, yes? Well met.
Tell no one that Betar-Nes was a member of the Worm Cult. I won't have Nimalten fall into chaos. We're on his trail. My advisor and the court mage search for any hint of the cult as we speak."
Otherwise:
- "Well met.
Tell no one that Betar-Nes was a member of the Worm Cult. I won't have Nimalten fall into chaos. We're on his trail. My advisor and the court mage search for any hint of the cult as we speak."
Regardless of how you introduce yourself, the conversation continues.
- How goes the investigation?
- "Too slow for my liking. My advisor Borodin is at the inn, asking questions of the townfolk. My court mage, Golun, has a theory about the Worm Cult's plan. He's at the Mages Guild, doing research.
Perhaps you can give them a hand?" - I'll do what I can.
You can ask her more about the situation after listening to her talk about her problem.
- "My people should not suffer for any problems within my court. I should have seen Betar-Nes's treachery before it came to roost in my very hall."
- Can you describe what happened?
- "There's not much to tell. Bastard asked me for a private conference, said he had something sensitive to tell me. When we were alone, he pulled a knife. I had to crush his scaly neck with my bare hands."
- Did you suspect anything before the attack?
- "Not a thing. To think of all the days I let that scaleback drink my mead. Live in my hall. Bah!"
Speaking to her again later in the investigation:
- "As a warmaiden, my sword and shield were my only concerns. Here, in this hall … the battlefield is much more uncertain."
Speaking to her during the murder investigation:
- "They want me dead? Let them come. I welcome another chance to prove myself. Fjora bends knee to no man!"
After the Worm Cult invades her manor, she must be spoken to. She's upstairs. You will find out Aera has been an agent of the Worm Cult all along and has fled after failing to kill the thane:
- "The cultists. They came out of nowhere. Aera. She was leading them! She demanded I join the cult.
Surprised … surprised her." - Where is she? Where's Aera?
- "I don't know. I cut her, and she scampered like a skeever."
- Will you be all right if I leave you here?
- "Shut up and get out of here. Bleeding feels good. Reminds me I'm alive."
Speaking to her again:
- "Just go. I'll be fine."
After dealing with Aera:
- "So. Aera was behind much of this, wasn't she? I don't pretend to know her reasons. All I want to know is whether you've dealt with her or not."
If you let Aera flee:
- Aera Earth-Turner is dead. [Lie]
- "Was it difficult? No matter. You did well. You've avenged Golun and all the others Aera lied to and murdered. Nimalten is safe.
We owe you a great debt. The Worms will find no shelter in the shadow of Nimalten!"
If you killed Aera:
- I did. Are you going to make it?
- "Yes, yes. I'm thankful for these wounds, in fact. They woke me up. A thane must be ever vigilant.
The Worms will find no shelter in the shadows of Nimalten."
After the quest:
- "My court is empty, and my people are frightened. What will tomorrow bring, I wonder?"
