Detailed WalkthroughEdit

Come Fly With MeEdit

Upon entering Bal Oyra, if you are level 10 or higher, you will get a journal update about the muskflies in the town. When you talk to anyone in town they will tell you that Tibera Rone is giving a hefty reward to any who can deal with the flies.

Rone can be found in the keep in the southeast corner of the village. She will tell you about the flies and will ask you to kill them, so go outside and kill the remaining flies.

Something in the AirEdit

When you go back she will tell you that she has already tried killing them all but more keep arriving in the town. She suggests that maybe there's something in the air. Head out into town and ask somebody about something in the air, and they will direct you to Tandryen Reyas' house.

Cooking up a StinkEdit

Go to the house, get Reyas' disposition over 70 then ask about muskflies, he will confess to be, not only a Telvanni loyalist, but also to having a masterplan to scare away the empire. Now he will attack you, he only has an iron tanto so won't prove much of a challenge. Looking around the interior of the house will reveal a piece of raw musk in a metal bucket over the fire: evidently this is what has been attracting the muskflies. Remove it from the bucket and return to Tibera.

Reyas will try to persuade members of House Telvanni (either the Vvardenfell or Mainland branches) to protect his secret and help him scare off the empire.

Sweet Smell of SuccessEdit

Tibera Rone will be grateful to you for fixing the problem. If you killed Reyas, she will reward you with 500 gold and 2 Reputation points; if you are a Telvanni and pretend to her that it is the oil being burned in the lighthouse that is attracting the flies, she will give you 400 gold and just 1 reputation point.

NotesEdit

  • Tandryen Reyas will not admit responsibility until you have gotten the journal entry telling you about the smoke coming from his home.
  • This is a walkthrough of an older version of the quest. Bal Oyra and the Muskflies quest were redone in the Embers of Empire release (2022).
