Related Quests


Quest-Related Events
After you have investigated the village, you will find Aranak has been brought to the Sacred Cave along with the other two suspects. You can then question him about the evidence you found relating to him:
:''"Please, it wasn't me. How could it be me? I'm a Khajiit. Only Wood Elves can break the Green Pact!"
:How do you explain this Charred Rock next to your lightning shattered cart?
::"Yes, there was a storm the other night, and storms bring lightning. What does that prove? I should have chosen a better place to keep my cart. That's all."
:I found a book of invoices that says you delivered a stalk of the sacred flower.
::"And if I did cut the flower? That doesn't solve the Wood Elves' problem. The Green Pact is their custom. I got an anonymous order for a flower and I filled it. I didn't know the flower was sacred. The one who placed the order is guilty, not me."
:I have an eyewitness who says you were creeping around outside the night the pact was broken.
::"I was out in the storm, trying to clear away fallen branches and protect my cart. For all the good it did."
:Thank you for the information. (Repeated after each piece of evidence is presented.)

Due to the ambiguous nature of much of the evidence, a solid case can be built for all three of the suspects. This means that it is entirely up to you who present as the culprit, if you chose Aranak and the court agrees with the evidence, you can talk with him before taking him to his punishment:
:"I'm sorry for what I did. Isn't it possible to look the other way? Isn't it possible to forgive?"
:Let's go.
:"Please, I don't want to die. I'm not ready. I did not mean to hurt anyone! It was just a plant!"

You will then take him down a passage the roots of the tree, where a massive strangler will be, surrounded by bones. The strangler then awakes and drains Aranak till he dies.

Dialogue
If you put your faith in Aranak during the quest, he will have a new greeting when you peruse his store.
:"I am grateful that you believed in me. I wish I could say the same of the others here. Many still believe I am guilty, even though the forest has returned to normal."''

Notes
If you make your way into the Sacred Cave without starting the quest, you can find Aranak there where he'll only say: ''"Let me go! This is a mistake! I've done nothing wrong!"''

:This astrology chart shows the sign of the Lady was shining brightly the night the pact was broken.
::"Why yes, that is my sign, and the sign of several others in this village. Surely it was shining because I was being blessed with good health after a period of such long sickness. I am still thanking the Divines for choosing to spare me."
:In your diary, you write that you will do anything to recover from your illness.
::"How dare you! You read my most private thoughts and then hold them against me as evidence? Last I heard, thinking was not a crime."
::As advocate, I was told to leave no stone unturned in my investigation.
::"So callous. How would you feel if you were dying? Wouldn't you seek a cure? Of course I looked for something that would help, but in the end it took faithful prayer and nothing else."

:What Argonian?
:"The brigand who killed my son! It took all my resources to make that amulet and track him down. You see, I am not a strong or violent man, but I do know my craft. That amulet is my masterpiece."

:"It magnifies the guilt of taking a life, slowly overwhelming the wearer with grief until he takes his own life. It's a little bit of poetry, if I do say so myself. Although it's been so long, I was beginning to doubt it worked."
:I didn't find it on an Argonian.
:"What? That can't be! You're lying. The Argonian sent you, didn't he? He's not dead at all, is he?"
