The Queen's Justice
:"My name is Frontinus. Hear my plea, Warrior, I beg of you."
:What is it?
:"They say you are the town champion, and that the Queen listens to you. Is it true?"

::That is mostly true.
::''"Divines be praised! I need justice for my murdered brother Caelinus, but the Queen won't see me."

::Don't believe everything you hear.
::"Then there is no hope, as no one else will help me..."
::What's the matter?
::"My brother Caelinus was murdered in cold blood, and his killer goes unpunished. I was hoping that the Queen would hear me, but I was told she would not."
::Do you know why?

Either option leads to:
:"According to that big Argonian, the list of people presenting grievances is already too long. He told me it would have to wait until next month, but I can't wait that long! Not when my brother's murderer continues to breathe the same air I do!"
:You know who did it?
:"It's his partner, Pavo Cominius, I'm sure of it!"
:I'll talk to the Queen.
:"You will? Thank you great champion! May the Divines shine their light on you forever!"

If spoken to again before speaking to the Queen:
:"Please let me know if the Queen will hear me, champion. That is all I ask!"''
The Farmer's Plea
If spoken to before you go to his village:
:"Do you have any news, Warrior?"
:I do.
:"You do? Will the Queen hear my plea?"
:I will investigate the murder.
:"Thank you, thank you, thank you! My brother will finally have justice!"

If spoken to again:
:''"Please hurry, Warrior, or I'm afraid Pavo will just sail away to some other province."

Once you return from his village:
:"Warrior, you're back! Have you found out where that murderer Pavo is hiding?"
:Pavo didn't do it.
:"No no no, he did! I'm sure he did!"
:He didn't.
:"Then who did?"
:The River Snake did it.
:"The River Snake?! But why?"

::He doesn't like competition.
::"Oh no... I told Caelinus to be careful about what they traded. He just wanted a little more money to help take care of the farm. And now he's gone. Thank you, Warrior. I just wish I could get some justice."

::He's a ruthless killer.
::"I knew Caelinus was getting into some shady business, but I never imagined... this. I just wish I could get some justice."

Either option leads to:
:Maybe you will.
:"What do you mean? Are you... are you going to try and catch the River Snake?"
:Probably.
:"Don't. He'll kill you too! This town needs you more than I need revenge. Well, I suppose I can't stop you..."

If spoken to again:
:"Be careful going after the River Snake. They say he always strikes to kill, and never misses."

Dialogue
:"Is there anything else you wanted to ask me?"

You can ask him a few questions, with the first being:
:Where do you live?
:"A small village less than two leagues to the west."

The second option is:
:What do you do for a living?
:"I am but a simple farmer."
:Do you have other siblings?
:"No, it was just me and my brother. Our parents were killed by goblins a few years ago. I've been taking care of the farm since."

The third is:
:Any bandits near your village?
:"There used to be, but they've been a lot more scarce recently. Do you think they might be involved in some way?"

::You never know.
::"I didn't think about that. Maybe Pavo is one of them!"

::Any other travelers?
::"You mean, visiting the village? Not really. We had a few Thalmor come by, but they didn't stay long."

When you say goodbye:
:I'm good, thanks.
:"I'll let you know if I learn anything new. Thank you so much for your help!"''
