Once in the Solar, find the plant to hide behind and listen to the talk between Thalmor Rulindil and informant Gissur. They discuss their interrogation victim, Etienne, along with an unnamed old man. Gissur will leave the building after and Rulindil goes to the dungeon, leaving you to sneak past or kill a guard to get the interrogation chamber key from a chest in the northwestern corner.
Also in the chest are files by the Thalmor on Delphine, Ulfric Stormcloak, and their investigations on the Dragons, exactly the info Delphine wanted us to find. In the dungeon, Rulindil will be making a guard torture Etienne for info until he passes out. You can then proceed to kill both of them to get what you need, or you can use stealth to sneak past them both. Fighting Rulindil is not recommended, due to his powerful wizardry skills, though he does have considerable loot to grab.
A stealthy backstab would work nicely. You can free Etienne and ask him for information now, or you can get the same info from the Thalmor Dossier: Esbern in the chest near his cell. After this, go up the east staircase and you'll find Malborn, who has been revealed as a traitor.
The two Thalmor soldiers will kill him on the spot if you don't intervene, so make sure to act fast or save beforehand. The soldiers will have a trap door key on them, making it that more reasonable to kill them.
If you used Erikur to provide a distraction earlier, this will be the only moment you can free Brelas, who was thrown in the dungeon for the incident. You now have three NPCs following you, none of which can fight or defend themselves. Use the trap door key to enter Reeking Cave and leave the Thalmor Embassy behind for good. Your inept, temporary followers will try to kill the troll waiting in the cave. This will most likely lead to their death, so try to run ahead and take care of it if you want them to survive.
Once you've exited the cave, your followers will all disperse and go their separate ways, so you can head back to Riverwood and inform Delphine of what you learned, as well as grab the rest of your equipment. Telling her the Thalmor want Esbern shocks her, as Esbern is a former Blade living in hiding in Riften. This will be your next destination in the journey, but this marks the completion of Diplomatic Immunity.
A Cornered Rat will start right after. A Dragonborn's work never ends! Eternals has a post-credit scene, but it's one that left many scratching their heads. Hayley Mullen is a writer, composer and gamer from Toronto. Upon your arrival, you meet a rather brazen bloke Razelan. Keep him at the forefront of your mind. After showing your invitation to the Thalmor bouncer and exchanging pleasantriess with the Ambassador, Malborn urges you to create a distraction so that you can sneak out.
Grab a Colovian Brandy either from Malborn or the waitress and hand one to Razelan. With his eyes wide, he pledges his loyalty to you, his best and most trusted friend. Ask him to create a distraction and slip out the back with Malborn. If you're concerned about replenishing your health , you can snag some food from the party at no penalty. Once you retrieve your gear from the chest, it is up to you to fight off the Thalmor guards in the back. You'll have a few melee types and a wizard to contend with.
Proceed ever closer to the quest marker, picking up various potions along the way. You'll encounter more enemies outside, but your main goal is to head into Elenwen's Solar to fight Rulindil and remove his Interrogation Chamber Key. Use it to gain entry into the torture chamber and pilfer the Thalmier Dossier: Esbern from the chest. I see it in your face! The snakes writhe behind your eyes!
Get away, get away from me! Razelan : Hmm? Did you say snakes? I hate them, always slithering the way they do Are they on me? Idgrod : Begone, serpent! Begone from this house and trouble it no more! Beware of the serpent in your midst! Beware, oh people of Skyrim! Idgrod : Dear me. All this trouble over me? I think I was confused.
There's no harm in him. Please, let him go. Igmund : It's all for a good cause, old chap. Igmund : Ulfric Stormcloak? Igmund : You take it back then? Igmund : Tell your men to stand down. Maven Black-Briar : You've got a lot of nerve, suggesting something like that, to me of all people! If this was Riften, I'd have you thrown in the dungeon! Razelan : What? I didn't No, listen, you must have misunderstood I don't mean to say I wouldn't be interested Maven : You're a disgrace to the Empire. To think that you're actually a representative of the East Empire Company.
When people talk about the decadent, tottering Empire, it's people like you they have in mind! Maven : Well, now. There's no need to ruin the party on my account. I don't think he'll be bothering me again. Ondolemar : How dare you speak of the Thalmor in such a disgusting manner! No listen, you must have misunderstood I would never openly insult your Ondolemar : Your insults and provocations have gone far enough!
I'd kill you where you stand if I wasn't bound by my oath as an officer of the Aldmeri Dominion. Ondolemar : Forgive me, Ambassador. I allowed this The fault is mine. There is no need for further disruption on my account. Orthus Endario : Watch this. Orthus : Hey Razelan, remember when you told me I'd never amount to anything?
Well, I don't think you should say things like that about the Ambassador! Orthus : I know you're drunk as usual, but that's no excuse for insulting our hostess. I don't think anyone deserves that kind of abuse! I've known plenty of elves who were perfectly decent people.
Orthus : I'm sorry, Ambassador. I didn't mean to cause such a commotion. There's no need to have him thrown out on my account. Razelan : Attention, everyone! Could I have your attention, please! I have an announcement to make! Razelan : I propose a toast to Elenwen!
Our mistress! I speak figuratively, of course. Nothing could be more unlikely than that someone would actually want her in their bed. Elenwen : Razelan. What are you doing? Razelan : Although But again I speak figuratively, of course!
Razelan : Fine, fine. Get your hands off me. I'll be a good boy now. Razelan : Wouldn't want to offend our Thalmor overlords, would we? Razelan : Someone bring me a drink, quick!
Siddgeir : It's all for a good cause, old chap. Siddgeir : Ulfric Stormcloak? Siddgeir : You take it back then? Siddgeir : Tell your men to stand down. Vittoria Vici : Just play along.
Vittoria : How dare you! You disgusting pig! Vittoria : The head office will hear of this, Razelan! You're a disgrace to the East Empire Company, and to the Empire itself! Vittoria : Oh, Ambassador Elenwen, that won't be necessary. It is just Razelan, after all. I'm sure he'll behave himself for the rest of the evening, won't you dear? In the kitchen, the Khajiit cook Tsavani will complain about Malborn bringing a stranger into the kitchens, at least until Malborn reminds her of her secret Moon Sugar addiction.
Malborn will then lead you into a room where you can receive the items you asked him to smuggle in. As soon as you exit through the door, Malborn will lock the kitchen area behind you and you are on your own, with the objective to find dragon-related intelligence.
In the first hallway, you can eavesdrop on a conversation between two Thalmor Guards, hinting that Delphine may be wrong about the Thalmor:. Guard 1 : "Did you see those robes march in this morning? Who're they with? More of the Emissary's treaty enforcers? They're high mages, just in from Alinor. I guess Herself is finally getting worried about all the dragon attacks.
I've been wondering how we were supposed to defend this place from a dragon. Might give us enough time to kill it. I'd like to see those arrogant bastards taken down a notch. Always looking down their noses at us lowly footsloggers. After a bit of mean-spirited laughter, one of the guards will say, "Well, we'd better get back to our rounds.
Note that the full set of Thalmor clothes in the adjacent room was supposed to make you harder to detect, but due to a bug , the clothes don't work, as the desired effect was wrongfully set to the Hooded Thalmor Robes.
You can claim a set of hooded robes from the Thalmor wizard in the upstairs area from the first room, but chances are he will detect you and call upon the two guards from downstairs. Regardless, you can choose between two strategies; either take the stealthy approach, with or without the hooded robes see this section , or go on a rampage and kill everybody. The first room contains the two talkative guards, with the Thalmor wizard patrolling the second floor.
Right after their conversation ends, they will both turn their back to the door and return to their positions, giving you a chance to sneak upstairs and attempt to claim the robes by killing the wizard quietly.
If not, you will have to take out the two guards and the wizard, and pick one of the two available doors leading to the outside courtyard. The area is patrolled by three Thalmor soldiers with another wizard standing guard near the front door to your target destination, the Solar of Elenwen.
If you wear the hooded robes, the guards will not notice you, but the wizard cannot generally be avoided and will see through your disguise. To enter the Solar, you have a few options. The most straightforward is to fight them all. You can avoid the fight by using Calm , or by using Fury on one of the guards and then running in while they're busy with each other.
Stealthy characters can fire arrows to distract the guards and pull the wizard away from the door. The door wizard occasionally looks to his left, leaving open an opportunity on his right for sneaking and invisible characters to get through the door before fully detected.
Once the guards are dealt with and the way to the Solar is clear, enter sneak mode and head in. Once you get inside Elenwen's Solar, the true face of the Thalmor will start to show, although not in the way Delphine expected. When the door closes behind you, you should hide behind the plant in the southwestern corner and eavesdrop on the conversation between the Thalmor torturer Rulindil and his informant Gissur in the neighboring room.
The conversation centers on a prisoner named Etienne and an unnamed old man:. Gissur : "But, I need that money! I earned it. I have my own expenses you know Do not presume, Gissur. You are most useful, but do not presume. We have other informants who are less Etienne, he's talked, hasn't he? He knows where that old man is you're looking for, he told me himself.
As agreed. I knew it! Now, I have work to do. Leave me to it, if you ever want to see the rest of your payment. I could help you. He'd talk to me. He trusts me. Shall we loose his bonds and put you in a cell together? You can ask him anything you like, and see how he answers. I'll wait outside. Now get out! While an insulted Gissur obeys orders and leaves the building, Rulindil will head downstairs and enter the dungeon, leaving the patrolling soldier alone with you.
You can either sneak past him or kill him, as your objective is the chest in the northwestern corner. Open the chest and obtain the interrogation chamber key , Thalmor dossiers on Delphine and Ulfric Stormcloak , and the revealing document Dragon Investigation: Current Status , which proves the Thalmor are investigating the dragon attacks as well, with Rulindil in charge of interrogating a suspect in the cells. Go down the stairs and enter the dungeon, where you will arrive at a balcony overlooking a bloodstained torture room and a number of cells.
If he wasn't killed in the previous room, Rulindil will be seated at the desk, while a Thalmor Soldier will do the dirty work and torture Etienne Rarnis while Rulindil asks a series of questions:. Etienne : "Stop. I don't know anything else. Don't you think I'd have told you already? You know the rules. Do not speak unless spoken to. Master Rulindil will ask the questions. I've already told you everything If you persist in this stubbornness I'll have I was just I don't even know anything There's an old man.
He lives in Riften. He could be this Esbern you're looking for, but I don't know. He's old and seemed kind of crazy. That's all I know. Like I've told already a hundred- Ahhhh! Just answer the questions.
