A Pearl of Great Price
Approaching the Canonreeve's House in Rellenthil for the first time, you'll hear:
:Canonreeve Farmeldo: ''"Go inside and we'll discuss this later. And take off that ridiculous hood!"
:Nedoril: "Ridiculous? I'll show you what's ridiculous. I'll show you all!"

After this scene, Canonreeve Farmeldo will speak to you:
:"You'd think as Canonreeve I'd be immune to the troublesome temper of a spoiled and rebellious child. But what distinguished visitors I have today! A wandering sage, a well-dressed Khajiit, and you. What brings such a group to Rellenthil?"
:We're investigating reports of unusual occurrences here in Rellenthil.
:"Investigating? For who? Well, there have been three reports this week of someone disappearing. And my intractable son Nedoril and his malcontent friends have been cavorting around the large sinkhole that recently appeared."
:Do you think the missing people, the sinkhole, and your son's friends are related?
:"What are you implying? They're just young and proud of their heritage. I wouldn't draw such a harsh conclusion without substantial evidence. I can't understand why they're fascinated with the sinkhole, but that doesn't make them criminals."
:Any objection to us investigating the sinkhole?
If you are an Altmer, he says:
:"I suppose two High Elves and a well-dressed Khajiit can be trusted. Take a look around and let me know if you find anything significant. I just wish my son Nedoril would stay away from there. He's become so intense lately. A phase, I'm sure."
Otherwise:
:"It's unusual for newcomers to encroach upon Altmer affairs, especially since we rarely saw any prior to the Queen's decree. If you want to investigate, I won't try to stop you. And if anything happens, maybe it will teach my son to avoid the place."
:I'll let you know if we find anything to be concerned about.'''

Entering the Cannonreeve's House after returning from the sinkhole, Farmeldo will speak his indignation:
:Cannonreeve Farmeldo: "The Eye of the Queen! How dare you accuse my son of treason!"

Speaking to Canonreeve Farmeldo directly will reveal:
:''"The Queen's Eye. How dare he not identify himself when he first arrived! And how dare he accuse my foolish son of something as serious as treason! The Queen shall hear of this, mark my words!"
:Nedoril's more than foolish. He killed a High Elf and is working with the Sea Sload.
:"Sea Sload? Plus all this nonsense about Altmer superiority? And now … murder? I am the Canonreeve of Rellenthil! I took an oath to serve and protect my community. How in the Queen's name am I supposed to reconcile my son's actions?"
:That's not something I can help you with.
:"Oh, Nedoril, what have you done? Please, you must talk to the Queen's Eye. He needs to show mercy. I'm sure we can find a way to resolve this without … oh, here comes Nedoril now."
:Your son has a lot to answer for, Canonreeve.

After speaking to Canonreeve Farmeldo, the following scene will play:
:Nedoril: "I have a lot to answer for? The Court of Bedlam is going to turn me into a god!"
:Razum-dar: "Foolishness can be ignored. Murder and treason, not so much."
:Nedoril: "You and your Queen have no authority over a true Altmer, you mangy cat!"
:Razum-dar: "This one cannot allow your crimes to stand unanswered."
:Canonreeve Farmeldo: "Nedoril! No … no. I understand. Rellenthil is loyal to the Queen."''

Afterwards
You can find Canonreeve Farmeldo in the Alinor Royal Palace at the end of A New Alliance where he'll say:
:''"It was hatred that changed my son. Hate of the new. Hate of those different from us. And here you are, a newcomer. The very reason we're all still alive. I hope your actions change the minds of many others, before they too take the wrong path."''
