Skyrim:Helping Hand

Quick Walkthrough
#Talk to Wujeeta about her job.
#Give her a healing potion.

Detailed Walkthrough
If you walk near Wujeeta, she will cry about losing her job and beg for help. Talk to her, and she will reveal that she has an addiction to skooma and that she wants to cure herself. She will ask for a healing potion in order to heal herself. If you probe further she will mention where she got the skooma from, "I got mine off of a merchant ship in Solitude", which ties in with another quest.

You have three options: agree to give her a potion, agree to find one for her, or refuse to help. If you refuse to give her a potion, the option remains to agree to give her one. If you agree to give her a potion, the lowest type of standard healing potion (eg. Potion of Minor Healing) in your inventory will be removed, and she will reward you with a leveled unenchanted ring while thanking you, "Your kindness will never be forgotten".

Dialogue is closed at this point and the first part of the next quest is immediately added to the miscellaneous quests.

Notes
Healing spells do not work and she does not recognize crafted healing potions. She can only take a standard healing potion.
This is the first of three quests that are required to unlock the option to become Thane of the Rift for Laila Law-Giver. There are additional requirements noted on that quest's page.
Wujeeta is not essential, and if she dies before this quest and the next are complete, you cannot become Thane of the Rift unless the Imperials take control of the Rift, either through negotiation or force.
A workaround of this problem using console would involve writing in sequence (without quotes): "prid 19ddf" then "moveto player". Then, in console select Wujeeta's body and write: "resurrect". Finally, write "setstage freeformriften12 20". This will reset Wujeeta to the point where you need to give her a healing potion and the quest can continue from there.
Although Wujeeta isn't the owner of the Riften Fishery, raising her disposition with this quest will allow you to freely take items from the fish barrels inside the fishery and around the nearby fishing boats.

Quick Walkthrough
# Talk to Alessandra.
# Deliver Alessandra's dagger to Andurs in Whiterun.
# Return to Alessandra.

Detailed Walkthrough
A Daughter's Path
Alessandra is the priestess of Arkay in Riften. She tends the Hall of the Dead, located beneath the Temple of Mara, by herself. When you speak with her, you will note a certain bitterness about her position: ''"I didn't ask for this job, I got stuck with it thanks to my father."'' Her father was a Priest of Arkay and it was his desire that she follow his footsteps. As a result, her entire life has been spent around the dead, learning the proper burial rituals and prayers. While she seems to have accepted her lot in life, albeit reluctantly, she feels the need to make peace with her father. Unfortunately, her father did not live to see his daughter become a priest. Alessandra holds her father's ceremonial dagger as well as the one she received when she did complete the training. She asks you to journey to the Hall of the Dead in Whiterun (see Bugs) to place her ceremonial dagger with her father's remains, fulfilling her honor-bound obligation to him and making peace with his memory. The dagger needs to be delivered to Andurs, the caretaker at the Whiterun Hall of the Dead, who will inter it with her father's remains. If you agree to help her deliver the dagger, she'll appreciate your help and entrust you with it.

The Pilgrimage
Travel to Whiterun and talk to Andurs in the Hall of the Dead. Hand Alessandra's dagger to him and he will be delighted to see she finally decided to return it to her father: "I will make sure this finds its way to his tomb as soon as possible. Thank you for bringing it, my child."

Return to Alessandra and tell her that you have fulfilled her request. She will tell you she felt a caress on her cheek some time ago and she thinks it was a message from her father: ''"We've made peace with one another without even uttering a single word and I'm content for the first time in my life." She will then thank you for your selfless act, and tell you that you are welcome to come back and speak to her anytime.

The reward for this quest is five adept Restoration spell tomes: Close Wounds, Greater Ward, Heal Other, Repel Lesser Undead, and Turn Undead, though there are some bugs with the quest reward.  Please refer to the Bugs section below.

Quick Walkthrough
# Speak to Wylandriah.
# Retrieve her spoon.
# Retrieve her soul gem.
# Retrieve her orichalcum ingot.
# Return to Wylandriah.

Detailed Walkthrough
After asking Wylandriah if she needs help she will enlist your aid to help retrieve some items she accidentally left behind while on her travels. She needs these implements to perform an oddly-inspired experiment. All items can be found in unique containers labeled "Wylandriah's Satchel".

Satchel Locations


Wylandriah's items can be acquired in any order. To find the spoon, go to Ivarstead and enter Fellstar Farm's house. Wylandriah's satchel is sitting on a table. To find the soul gem, go to The White Phial in the market in Windhelm. There are two barrels under the staircase; Wylandriah's satchel is on top of the barrel closest to the door. To find the orichalcum ingot, go to The Frozen Hearth in Winterhold right across from the jarl's longhouse. Wylandriah's satchel is on the bookshelf with the elves ear plants next to Nelacar's room. Return to Wylandriah with the items and she will give you several random scrolls as a reward, but will have no recollection of actually setting you on the task.

Notes
The orichalcum ingot is a special quest version found only in her satchel, but not named like the other two items.
Fellstar Farm is locked during the day, so you may want to enter at night if you don't want to risk getting caught trespassing. 
Or, if you are trying to maintain a good character, you can wait until the family stops working in the garden.  Then, one by one, they will enter the house. The mother is the last one to enter the house. After she enters, the house becomes unlocked, and you can enter the house without trespassing.

# Speak to Harrald in Mistveil Keep.
# Retrieve his blade from Balimund.
# Return to Harrald.

Detailed Walkthrough
The Slain Wall
Harrald is the son of Jarl Laila Law-Giver and lives in Mistveil Keep in Riften. Take a look at him and you may find something strange. As the son of the jarl, he has only a dagger. If you ask him, he will tell you why: "I was practicing in the yard when the guard I was sparring with feinted when I specifically told him to duck! My blade bit right into the stonework next to the keep and needed serious repairs." He'd like you to fetch his blade from Balimund.

Talk to Balimund right outside The Scorched Hammer, "a stone's throw" from the keep. He will give the sword to you and comment on Harrald's laziness and carelessness.

Hand over the sword to Harrald and he will be very glad. "Took your sweet time getting it to me. Here you go, for your trouble." Then he will reward you with two leveled gems.

Notes
Although this is not a favor quest, it does count towards becoming thane.

Skyrim:Truth Ore Consequences

Quick Walkthrough
# Speak with Hafjorg.
# Obtain an unusual quicksilver ore sample from Filnjar.
# Return the ore sample to Hafjorg.

Detailed Walkthrough
Helping out
Should you find yourself in Elgrim's Elixirs, commiserate with Hafjorg about how much she has to do at the shop. She will tell you that caring for her husband, Elgrim, is holding her back from getting things done; specifically running an errand to Shor's Stone to retrieve an unusual ore sample. Offer to fetch it for her.

Shor's Stone
In Shor's Stone, seek out Filnjar at his home and smithy. Let him know you are there for the ore, and after some derisive comments about Elgrim, he hands over a sample of quicksilver. He explains that he needs Elgrim to examine this particular piece as its discovery coincided with a strange invasion of frostbite spiders in Redbelly mine.

Four Potions
Bring the sample to Hafjorg. She makes a sarcastic comment about her husband's busy schedule, but had him make you four leveled skill potions to compensate you for your travel.

Notes
The ore sample is a special variety of quicksilver ore; it cannot be used for smelting.
The quest only originates from Hafjorg even though Filnjar has been waiting for a courier.
No follow-up is known at this time to explain the appearance of the spiders and its link to the ore.

Skyrim:Ringmaker

Quick Walkthrough
# Speak to Madesi in his stall in Riften.
# Gather one mammoth tusk, one gold ore, and two flawless sapphires.
# Return to Madesi.

Detailed Walkthrough
thumb|right|All the necessary components
Speak with Madesi and ask him about his jewelry. You will learn that he is running low on supplies due to heavy bandit presence on the roads and needs help gathering some components. He requires two flawless sapphires, one mammoth tusk, and one piece of gold ore.

Flawless sapphires, like all gems, can be randomly found or mined. One guaranteed sample can be stolen from the shelves in the Inner Sanctum of the Temple of Dibella in Markarth.

Mammoth tusks can be looted from slain mammoths, as well as bought from hunters and certain merchants. Three guaranteed samples can be found in the College of Winterhold's Arcanaeum; eight guaranteed samples can be found in Halted Stream Camp.

Gold ore can be found randomly in containers or in buildings, but an easy place to find some gold veins is in Kolskeggr Mine. There's also Lost Prospect Mine; while the latter is closer, it doesn't have as many veins as Kolskeggr Mine.  Alternately, one can just use the Transmute spell to turn one Iron Ore into one Gold Ore.

You can return the items to Madesi as you find them, or all at once. He will give you 100 gold for each item returned (i.e., 200 for the two sapphires). Once you've returned them all, ask Madesi if he needs anything else and he will thank you with a leveled necklace.

 
Notes
Completing this quest counts towards your eligibility for becoming Thane of the Rift.
Try not to purchase the items for this quest, as the cost of buying the items can outweigh the reward for returning them.
Halted Stream Camp is the location of a bounty quest, possible location of a Dungeon Delving quest from Amren, and possible location of the Amulet of the Moon quest, making it easy to complete multiple quests at once if you choose to find your mammoth tusk there.

Skyrim:Toying With The Dead

Quick Walkthrough
#Travel to Yngvild.
#Collect the four journals.
#Return to Vekel.

Detailed Walkthrough
The Proposition
If you approach Vekel in The Ragged Flagon and ask him for work, he will tell you about some journals that he's been after: ''"I have a buyer with a very odd taste in literature, looking for some particular books. I'm told they're the ravings of a madman, a wizard named Arondil, and his peculiar cravings. It's said to be in four volumes and very hard to come by. My client is offering quite a reward for them, which I'd split with you." If you ask for him to elaborate further on the journals, he will go on to say, "Recently, a woman was found... naked and shivering along the road to Dawnstar. The only information the guard could get from her were tales of strange experiments and Arondil scribbling in his journals."'' 

Asking about Arondil won't get you much, as Vekel says, "Only rumors. He used to have a home in Dawnstar until they burned it down. The people say he was doing unspeakable experiments on reanimation... rituals only a necromancer would perform. After he made for Yngvild, he was never heard from again." 

Once you agree to retrieve the journals, he will conclude the conversation with: "Then we have a deal. In his later years,   moved into some ice caves known as Yngvild. He   the solitude in which to perform his, um... experiments." 

Yngvild
thumb|right|The ruins of Yngvild
Yngvild is an ice cave located on an island northeast of Dawnstar. To access it, find the entrance on the north side by following the pathway up the island. Once inside, you are able to find the first three journals. The first journal is located on a table near two Yngvild ghosts and a leveled draugr. The second journal can be found on a table alongside a woodcutter's axe and a scroll. The third journal can be found on a table just before the door leading to Yngvild Throne Room.

Yngvild Throne Room
Once you enter the main chamber in the throne room, you will see Arondil sitting on his throne with an Yngvild ghost alongside him. The fourth and final part of the journal lies through the door behind him, on a table along with an unusual gem for the quest No Stone Unturned. Once you have retrieved the journals, you can exit the cave and head back to The Ragged Flagon to receive your reward.

Reward
Return all four journals to Vekel and he will remark, ''"Good. I was hoping you hadn't forgotten about it. As promised, here's your payment for bringing them to me. Got it as part of a fair trade from my client."'' Your reward for returning the journals is a leveled and enchanted one-handed weapon.

Notes
This quest can be started without talking to Vekel; if you go to Yngvild and pick up all four journals, you will receive a quest update telling you to return them to Vekel.
You don't have to kill Arondil, merely get his journals.
For poetic justice, sneaking into the final chamber unnoticed and removing the Soul Gem from the pedestal next to Arondil causes the ghosts near him to attack and kill him.

Quest Stages
Skyrim:Smooth Jazbay

Quick Walkthrough
#Speak to Avrusa Sarethi.
#Collect 20 Jazbay Grapes.
#Return to Avrusa Sarethi.

Detailed Walkthrough
Avrusa Sarethi needs a large amount of jazbay grapes in order to cultivate nirnroots. She's running low and unable to search out the ingredient herself, as she is preoccupied with her energetic sister and farm chores. She asks you to hunt down twenty grapes for her current nirnroot crop. As Avrusa notes, jazbay grapes are somewhat hard to come by. The plants are indigenous to the volcanic tundra region of Eastmarch, and while desolate, the tundra is fairly easy to traverse with a few lesser animals and non-hostile giants.  

There are a few locations where it can be found in greater quantities than usual. Along with the quantities available, they are:
49 around Steamcrag Camp (Eastmarch)
47 around Witchmist Grove (Eastmarch)
35 around Eldergleam Sanctuary (Eastmarch)
33 around the Atronach Stone (Eastmarch)
31 around Bonestrewn Crest (Eastmarch)
26 around Kynesgrove (Eastmarch), especially along the road heading southeast
25 around Mistwatch (Eastmarch)
24 around Broken Limb Camp (Eastmarch)
23 around Cronvangr Cave (Eastmarch)
22 around Riverside Shack (Eastmarch)

Once you have collected twenty samples, head back to Avrusa who will thank you for your aid and reward you with five random potions. You can return to Sarethi Farm periodically to harvest Nirnroot and Crimson Nirnroot.

Quick Walkthrough
# Talk to Filnjar about the local mine.
# Clear Redbelly Mine of frostbite spiders.
# Return to Filnjar.

Detailed Walkthrough
Of Sulfur and Spiders
Redbelly Mine is a small ebony mine located in Shor's Stone. The mine gets its name from the red mist filling the caverns and smelling like the sulfurous hot springs out in the volcanic tundra. The local blacksmith, Filnjar, will tell you the mine is not producing right now. In fact, the mine is currently overrun with spiders. Filnjar is worried that the invading arachnids will venture out of the mine looking for food soon. What's worse, the town guards are as useless as "a fifth wheel on a wagon" as they prefer to keep an eye out for enemy soldiers rather than trouble themselves protecting the town's major commodity. If you are willing to give Filnjar a hand, he will tell you, ''"Keep to your word, and I'll line your pockets with as much as I can scrape up."''

Spider Extermination
The mine is to the west, close to Filnjar's House. Get into the mine and you'll find some frostbite spiders soon. There are two groups of three spiders, with medium and small spiders attacking en masse. Remove every spider to complete the quest. You can also find the three ebony ore veins near the bottom level of the mine.

Gold for Spiders
Return to Filnjar and tell him the good news. ''"Gone? Every one of them? Why, that's incredible."'' Then he'll reward you with leveled gold for reopening the mine and putting Shor's Stone back on the map.
 

Notes
There is a Shor's Stone Guard that sits outside the mine. You can utilize a common bug where they will follow you into the mine while dialogue is ongoing and they can then be used to help clear the mine, though it's not a difficult task unless attempted at a very low level.
Killing all the frostbite spiders triggers the option to "Return to Filnjar" regardless of having talked to him or not.
Filnjar's dialogue does not change even if the Civil War is over; he still says the guards are looking out for enemy soldiers.
Shor's Stone Guards may randomly give you a gift after completing this quest.

Bugs
 
 
If the spiders respawn and you have already completed the quest once, the quest will reset at the point where you have to return to Filnjar after killing some or all of the spiders, allowing you to repeat the quest as many times as you want.
The miners leave the mine at night; entering the mine then should allow you to kill the spiders again without any harm coming to the miners.

Detailed Walkthrough
Just Another Day on the Farm
Salvius Farmhouse is just to the east of Markarth Stables as you approach Markarth. The farm is tended by Rogatus Salvius and his wife Vigdis, and Salvius will be outside during most of the daylight hours. Speaking to him will reveal a caustic nature and a long list of complaints. At the moment, he is upset at his son who works at the Old Hroldan Inn and never visits. He'll ask you to do him a favor by delivering a letter admonishing his son for his familial neglect. 
Some Things Never Change
Old Hroldan Inn is across the hold, almost directly east of Markarth. Traveling along the road will take you near a few Forsworn encampments, but should be relatively safe. It can also be approached by traveling over the mountains to the west of Rorikstead. Leontius Salvius is typically outside chopping wood or on the porch during the day. He can be found inside the inn at night. He'll thank you for the letter, wistfully reproaching the content, and pay you twenty-five gold for delivering the letter.


Notes
This quest is nearly identical to Delivery radiant quests, but is not included in their radiant scheme. 
This quest counts towards Assist the people of the Reach.
