Detailed Walkthrough
 
 
As you pass through the Bandaari Caravan Stop in Rimmen, Jakarn will fall out of a window above and land on a crate. He will invite you to meet him in the Sugar Bowl Inn to discuss some business.  Once there, he will ask you to search Rimmen's sewers for a barrel near an altar to Clavicus Vile.  The barrel has a note with the location of Tu'heiba, the Elsweyr crime boss.  She's holding Jakarn's Friend Fez'skar.  Tu'heiba hired Jakarn and Fez'skar to steal the Jewel of Baan Dar.  Fez hid it and Jakarn doesn't know where.  Further discussion reveals the jewel was originally a Khajiit treasure stolen by the Euraxians and Tu'heiba hired them to steal it back. Jakarn sends you to retrieve the note while he gambles to raise the ransom money.

Enter the Rimmen Palace Recesses and retrieve the note from the barrel.  The note indicates Tu'heiba is camped near the Darkpool Mine. Return to Jakarn at the Sugar Bowl, where he has been quite successful with his gambling.  He gives you the gold for Fez'skar's ransom. As he prepares to leave, Daizaba approaches, obviously displeased with his gambling success.  He sends you ahead while he deals with the situation.

As you step outside the in, Daizaba charges out from upstairs, looking for Jakarn.  You can talk to her and she will ask you where Jakarn went.  When you say you don't know, she will accuse Jakarn of cheating, saying she saw cards fall out of his pockets as he fled and that she will collect payment in fingers, not gold.

Find Tu'heiba northeast of the Darkpool Mine and give her the ransom.  She tells you that she sold Fez'skar to a slave trader who sold him to someone else.  The slaver died, but you should be able to find the new owner's name in the slaver's ledger, which is in Darkpool Mine. Continuing to talk to Tu'heiba reveals she tried to beat the location out of Fez'skar, but was surprised at her lack of success. She suspects something kept him from speaking.  

Enter Darkpool Mine to retrieve the slave trader's ledger.  The ledger can be found in a pack on a platform near the waterwheel in the northeast room. Retrieve the ledger and return to Tu'heiba.  The ledger is encoded. When you ask Tu'heiba to decode it, she says Fez'skar was sold to slavers based in the Tangle.

Jakarn appears just to the west of the camp.  Tell him what you've learned, and he will tell you to meet him at The Tangle.  When you get there, he says to split up inside to cover more ground.  You will find Jakarn and Fez'skar in the first room of the delve, in the middle of a spike trap.  You must find the key that unlocks the chain to disable the trap.  The key is in a chest in the eastern room.  When you return, you have a choice of disabling the trap or telling Fez'skar to reveal the location of the jewel.

If you tell him to reveal the jewel's location, he will reply that you have to free him first.

Once you disable the trap, Fez'skar sets off a poison spray, knocking out you and Jakarn while he escapes.  When you recover, Jakarn recommend looking for him in The Stitches.

When you find him, Fez'skar is preparing to jump off a platform to a ledge with a chest containing the jewel.  Jakarn is tries to convince him not to jump, but he goes anyway and falls to his death.  Jakarn is now thinking he can make the jump, but you convince him not to go.  He realizes it's a bad idea and tells you to meet him at the Goiter's Gulp.  There you will find Tu'heiba waiting for you.  She tells you there is a hex on the jewel that drives people crazy with greed.  Jakarn arrives with the quest reward.  He and Tu'heiba drink a toast to the late Fez'skar.
