Quest-Related EventsEdit

She can initially be seen in front of Cinder-Tail and Gobani on the road near the wayshrine, at the entrance of town. If spoken to, she will reassure you.

"Not to worry, citizen. This fleabitten scoundrel will not trouble you. Jode's Chariot will see to that."

When you've started the quest, you must talk to her about Cinder-Tail. You can either lie or tell her the truth. Your response differs depending on whether you've met Cinder-Tail on Khenarthi's Roost or not.

If you met him in Khenarthi's Roost:
If you have not met him before:
"Surely this scoundrel is lying. I chased him here on my own two legs. He was only out of sight for a flick of the tail!"
[Lie] It is as he says. The thief bumped into us as he fled. I chased after him.
"A very good story. I don't know how a scamp like you has such good friends, Cinder-Tail.
Which way did this thief go? He made off with enough moon-sugar to knock over a mammoth."
I didn't see.
"Of course not. And Jode's Chariot does not have the authority to launch an investigation. Shan-ra will not be happy.
Thank you, citizen, for your vigilance."
I didn't see anything.
"Of course not. There was no other thief.
Not that it matters. Our sticky-fingered friend here has already stashed the moon-sugar he stole. I don't suppose you saw where?"
When I arrived, he was as you see him.
"Then my paws are tied. No evidence means no theft, even if Shan-ra is three months worth of moon-sugar poorer.
In any case, thank you. Jode's Chariot appreciates your honesty."
"Surely this scoundrel is lying. I chased him here on my own two legs. He was only out of sight for a flick of the tail!"
[Lie] I saw the thief. He ran off as though the blades of Mephala were at his back.
"The Blades of Mephala, eh? Such a vivid image. He must be very strong, to run so fast, with all those satchels weighing him down. There must be a month's supply of moon-sugar in each.
Did you see where the thief went?"
I'm afraid not.
"Well, I guess there's nothing Jode's Chariot can do about it now. That moon-sugar will be all over town by nightfall. Shan-ra will not be happy.
Thank you anyway."
I didn't see anything.
"Of course not. There was no other thief.
Not that it matters. Our sticky-fingered friend here has already stashed the moon-sugar he stole. I don't suppose you saw where?"
When I arrived, he was as you see him.
"Then my paws are tied. No evidence means no theft, even if Shan-ra is three months worth of moon-sugar poorer.
In any case, thank you. Jode's Chariot appreciates your honesty."

You can ask her some questions before she leaves.

Jode's Chariot?
"We keep the peace here in Redfur, making it safe for traders on their way to and from Elden Root. We spend most of our time catching thieves."
What do you do with them?
"Return what they stole and put them in the stocks to think about what they've done. We don't hold them for long, but they usually get the message—or become better thieves."
Why aren't the penalties harsher?
"Honestly? Thieves are good for business. They keep the market fluid and stop too much wealth from accumulating in one place.
Until recently, Shan-ra would rather deal with thieves than with Thalmor bureaucrats."
Until recently?
"A reputation for being easy on thieves tends to attract thieves. The newer thieves don't give back to the people. They leave town and take their stolen goods with them.
That's no good for anyone. Shan-ra may have to step in."
Shan-ra?
"He leads the Redfur Trading Coster. Every merchant who passes through Redfur pays him a small stipend to conduct business here.
They expect a certain amount of protection from thieves in return. Jode's Chariot maintains order in his name."

Before meeting Valirr, she will be at the stockades:

"Hello again, traveler. Watch your pockets—things have a way of disappearing from them in Redfur."

After meeting Valirr, you must speak with Tulira at the entrance to the Tomb of Anahbi, where she has just finished speaking with Feathers.

"I'm sorry we can't chat for long. I'm waiting for someone."
Valirr sent me to meet with you.

Her response differs depending on how you answered her earlier. If you lied:

"Really? Then you must be the newcomer everyone's talking about. Impressive work. Tell me—were you telling the truth about Cinder-Tail or were you just covering for one of your fellows?"
[Lie] Everything I said was true.
"Truly? I wonder if I can take your word for that. An honest thief seems a contradiction of terms. No matter.
Tell me, why have you come?"
Valirr wants me to enter the tomb.
I was just covering for him.
"I thought as much—though I am surprised you would admit it. An honest thief. Hmm.
Anyway, tell me. Why have you come?"
Valirr wants me to enter the tomb.

If you told her the truth:

"Truly? You were so honest about Cinder-Tail. I would not have expected you to associate with the Hollow Moon. Such is life, I suppose.
Valirr's messenger said he had a plan. You play some part in it, I expect"
He wants me to enter the tomb.

Regardless, once you've told her you need to enter the tomb, she'll respond with:

"Is he mad? Why would he ask for such a thing? He knows the danger!"
He believes it to be the only way to change Shan-ra's mind about the Thalmor.
"Yes, I see. The treasure of Anahbi could certainly be persuasive. It may be our only chance of keeping the Thalmor out of our affairs.
I'll give you the key, but please be careful. I don't want your death on my hands."

You can speak to her again before entering the tomb, to which she will remark:

"Take care. That the Tomb of Anahbi remains undisturbed in this city of thieves after all these years should tell you all you need to know of the dangers."

Your next opportunity to speak with Tulira will arise when she and Valirr are meeting with Shan-ra. You will overhear their exchange.

Shan-ra: "Tulira and Valirr working together! Punabi, did you ever think we would see this day?"
Punabi: "No, Shan-ra."
Shan-ra: "Come now, smile! Only good can come of such an auspicious alliance!"
Tulira: "You are wise to say so, Shan-ra."
Shan-ra: "Such flattery! Tell me. Why have you called me here?"
Valirr: "We have a gift for you, Shan-ra. To show our appreciation and solidify our friendship."
Valirr: "And I believe it has just arrived. My friend, if you would do the honors?"

You can speak with her before greeting Shan-ra.

"You made it out of Anahbi's Tomb? Unbelievable. I'm beginning to think I was worried about the wrong thief earlier. Clearly you are a person of surprising talents."

Speaking with her if you used the treasure to keep the Thalmor out of Redfur:

"That went better than I expected! Jode's Chariot will put the cartel's money to good use.
Thank you for your part in this. We are in your debt."

After the quest, she can be found by the Stockade. If you kept the Thalmor out of Redfur:

"Thanks again. Jode's Chariot regards you as an honorary member."

If you asked for gold and riches in exchange for the treasure, she will show her disappointment:

"Twelve curses for a flybitten shaveskin! I should never have listened to Valirr. This is what comes of trusting a thief!"

After the quest, she will turn and walk away, vanishing in the distance.

"Ah, you must be Valirr's agent."
I am.
"When Feathers delivered her message, I was skeptical. We do not usually work so closely with one another. Still, desperate times bring out the Baan Dar in all of us.
What is his plan?"
He wants me to enter the tomb.
