She was then offered a chance to join the Brotherhood, which she accepted.
==Interactions==
Like other members in the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary, she will give the Hero advice or ridicule them when asked about the current contract, depending on her disposition.
===The Purification===
Telaendril is one of the members of the Cheydinhal Sanctuary who must be killed during this quest.

Show: Welcome to the Family
In the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary:
"Warmest welcomes to you. I am Telaendril. Wood Elf and loyal daughter of Sithis. I hope you find our Sanctuary to your liking."
:Lucien "Actually, Lucien did not try to recruit me. Not at first. He tried to kill me. My father wanted me dead, and he hired the Dark Brotherhood to do it. I escaped from Lucien, and paid my father back for his treachery. Lucien came to me again that night with an offer I just couldn't refuse."
:Night Mother "Our Lady is surely an ancient and powerful elf. Someday, when I am Listener of the Black Hand, I will look upon her beautiful and unholy form!"
:Rumors "Oh, I shouldn't...well, all right. Gogron had a pet rabbit as a child! He petted the thing so hard he crushed its skull! Ha ha ha! What a brute!"
:Sanctuary "In truth, I miss the towering elms of my native Valenwood. But I was banished from there, for deeds I don't care to discuss. This is my home now."
:Sithis "Long ago, in age now forgotten, Sithis came to the Night Mother and begat her five sons. So you see, his love gave birth to the Dark Brotherhood."

;Greeting
Disposition over 70:
" to see you again. The Night Mother has been smiling upon you, I hope.
Disposition 30–70:
Disposition under 30:
"I find your very presence foul. Say what you will and then leave my sight!"
;A Watery Grave
Disposition at or over 30:
"Pirates, eh? They tend to be quick, and good with a blade, but don't favor armor. They're not fond of bows or spells, either."
Disposition under 30:
"So, you come to me for assistance. How interesting. I think I'd much rather you die in the field."
;Accidents Happen
Disposition at or over 30:
"Yes, you'll find that some jobs require you to terminate a mark in a specific way. It's well worth the trouble, considering how good the bonuses are."
Disposition under 30:
"This contract requires stealth and subtlety. You possess neither. When you fail, I will gladly take your place."
;Scheduled for Execution
Disposition at or over 30:
"This prisoner, why give him a chance to escape, or fight back? Pierce his heart with an arrow, right through the bars of the cell. Quick and easy."
Disposition under 30:
"Vicente wants YOU to infiltrate the Imperial Prison? I didn't realize you had such a good sense of humor."
;The Assassinated Man
Disposition at or over 30:
"Remember, timing is everything. You need to slash Motierre with the blade in Hides-His-Heart's presence, and then flee before the enforcer can react."
Disposition under 30:
"Bah! You have neither the skill nor the daring to fulfill this contract. I hope the moneylender cuts out your heart."
;The Lonely Wanderer
Disposition at or over 30:
"I'd never suggest you forfeit a bonus, of course, but killing Faelian indoors is so unappealing. Too bad you couldn't snipe him from a balcony. But first I guess you have to find him, right? The Elven races of the Imperial City are a community unto themselves. Ask them about Faelian."
Disposition under 30:
"So, you need to find this High Elf, hmm? Why don't you take a trip to Summerset Isle, ask around for him there. Idiot."
;Bad Medicine
Disposition at or over 30:
"Ah, now this is the type of contract I live for! You must become pure shadow. It's as if you were never there, and then Roderick simply... dies."
Disposition under 30:
"This is an outrage! This contract should have gone to me! My stealth skills are unmatched! You will never succeed! Never!"
;Whodunit?
Disposition at or over 30:
"Take your time with this one. Observe the other guests. Learn their schedules and behaviors, and strike each one when they're alone. Use your silver tongue. Try to befriend the guests, and then you may be able to lure them to their own dooms! Hahahahahaha!"
Disposition under 30:
"You come to me for knowledge, for advice? I would sooner see you flounder in a pool of your own blood. Good luck, worm."
;Permanent Retirement
Disposition at or over 30:
"The Rose of Sithis! Such an honor! Just make sure your marksmanship is up to the task. If you miss the target, the enchantment will be wasted."
Disposition under 30:
"Ah, of course. You're going to succeed where three previous family members have failed. How silly of me..."
;The Purification
"Lachance has given you a... a secret assignment? But I've been asking for this chance for so long... Surely he doesn't doubt my abilities!"
;Goodbye
Disposition at or over 30:
"May your arrows always strike true!"
Disposition under 30:
"By Sithis, I hope you shoot your own eye out..."
==Conversations==
;Welcome to the Family
Gogron: "But why, Sister? What is the point? Why should anyone bother with all that sneaking and skulking?"
Telaendril: "My dear Gogron, you are a life-taker for the Dark Brotherhood! Our very existence relies on shadow and deception. Do you not value our secrets?"
Gogron: "Yes, yes, of course I value our secrets, and I have never betrayed them! But using stealth to kill... It's just so... weak."
Telaendril: "But Brother, what of the contracts that require subtlety! You must at least strive to earn the bonuses that are offered?"
Gogron: "Bonuses? Ha ha ha ha ha! Useless, I say! Gold and magical trinkets are no substitute for the freedom to slaughter anyone I please, at any time!"
Telaendril: "Oh, Gogron! He he he he. Your methods may be crude, but your heart is always in the right place."
