Llevana Nedaren out walking in Cheydinhal

Llevana Nedaren is a Dark Elf farmer living in Cheydinhal. She is known throughout town as being the most vocal about the corrupt practices of the local City Guard. If left up to her, the Captain of the Guard, Ulrich Leland, would be dragged out into the street and killed.

Llevana wakes up at 6am and, provided it isn't raining, immediately heads outside for her morning stroll around the area of the northeastern gate. She heads back home at 11am and when she arrives she sits down a well-deserved lunch. At 2pm she heads out again for another walk, this time in the city's southwestern corner, by Willow Bank. Regardless of the weather, she will only head back home at 8pm, at which point she spends the next four hours relaxing before heading to bed at midnight.

She wears a set of lower class clothing consisting of a collared shirt, green felt linens, and a pair of huntsman moccasins. She carries her key, a bread loaf, and a small amount of gold.

Quest-Related EventsEdit

Many Cheydinhal citizens buckling under the weight of Ulrich Leland's taxation will tell you to seek out Llevana:

"If you're interested, go talk to Llevana Nedaren. She seems the most outspoken against Ulrich and his new fines."

When you do speak to her, she will immediately be able to tell that you are not under Ulrich's influence:

"You seem far too nice to be one of Ulrich's men. What can I do for you?"
Fines
"Oh, please. Don't even get me started. That madman won't be satisfied until everyone in town is dead broke...or in jail! What in Oblivion is Ulrich doing with all that money anyway? I'm sure he's lining his pockets with the gold of the good citizens of Cheydinhal. Take my good friend Aldos Othran for example. In the last month, he's been fined six times! SIX! All for being drunk and disorderly. Have you ever gone past a guard barracks? When are they NOT drunk and disorderly? What kind of a stupid fine is that? Well, Aldos couldn't pay the last two fines, so they seized his home and threw him into the street until he could pay it! Bastards!"
What about the Count?
"The Count? He could care less about our plight. As long as the roast suckling pig is delivered to his feast table, he's as happy as can be."
Is there anyone who cares?
"Well, there's one man who seems to care: Garrus Darelliun, the second in command of the guard. I hear he isn't happy with Ulrich. I don't know what you can do for us in this situation. I mean, Ulrich is the Captain after all. Perhaps you could speak to Garrus. You can find him roaming the County Hall of the castle most of the time."

At this point you can ask her about more information about Aldos and Ulrich:

Aldos Othran
"Poor fellow. You may be able to find him roaming the streets of Cheydinhal, probably drunk. Only a month ago, he lost his wife. They were traveling the road from the Imperial City when a bandit raiding party struck. He barely escaped alive. Ever since then, he's been drunk. Sure, he gets rowdy sometimes, but he's never hurt anyone."
Ulrich Leland
"I don't know where the Count found him, but I sure wish he'd send him back. He's a menace to this town."

Leaving to go speak to Garrus will have Llevana declare somewhat longingly:

"Garrus may be our only hope."

If you approach and greet her again at this point, she will say:

"I'm glad to see you've returned."
"I appreciate the interest you're taking in helping us with our situation."

Speak to Garrus and he will be sympathetic, though he doesn't think Llevana would be a good witness against Ulrich, and instead suggests Aldos Othran::

Ulrich Leland
"It appears you've spoken to Llevana. I know she sounds a bit like a raving madwoman, but she isn't far from the truth."
"Honestly, she's never done anything to be fined or get in trouble...yet. The person I'd love to bring in as a witness is Aldos Othran."

After you've talked to Aldos and he's set off to reclaim his house, mentioning him to Llevana will cause her to fret:

Aldos Othran
"Oh my! You better find him and see what he's doing! Hurry!"

After Aldos' untimely death, Garrus will ask you to inform Llevana:

"Damn. I was afraid this might happen. Poor Dunmer. Please, go tell Llevana the sad news."

Llevana herself will detect something terrible has happened when you approach her:

"Is something amiss? You have an ashen look on your face that tells me so."

She will then open the conversation with:

"What's wrong?"
Aldos Othran
"Oh no! They killed him? I can't believe this! Ever since his wife passed at the hands of the bandits, his life has been miserable. I'd grown to become fond of him. I wanted to take him into my house, but I was afraid. And now look what's become of him. There are no more options left. Ulrich must be dealt with, and actions speak louder than words. You must do something for me. Go tell Ulrich that I have some information that incriminates him. Tell him to come alone, or he won't get it. Then, lead him here, and I'll do the rest."

If you ask her again about Aldos, she'll add sadly:

"I'll make the necessary arrangements for his burial. He'll be buried next to his poor wife."

Mentioning Ulrich's name at this point will have Llevana say coldly:

Ulrich Leland
"I'll deal with him soon enough."

Upon leaving the conversation she will spit:

"Ulrich will not buy his way out of this one...he'll pay. I promise you."

At this point you can choose to help either Llevana or Garrus in their goal to get rid of Ulrich. If you inform Garrus of Llevana's intent, he will warn you:

"Llevana has always been quick tempered. You must reconsider her plan. It can only lead to prison for her...and for you."

Llevana's ApproachEdit

If you side with Llevana, approaching and greeting her now will net you:

"Please, go get Ulrich and convince him to follow you here. I'll do the rest."
"Well, where is he?"

Once you've convinced Ulrich to follow you to her house, Llevana will immediately head back to home so she can welcome him. If you manage to speak to her when you arrive, she will say:

"Stand back, and let me take care of this."

She will then start a conversation with him:

Ulrich: "So, Llevana, I hear you have something I'd want to see?"
Llevana: "Ulrich, how dare you walk in here like you don't know what's going on."
Ulrich: "Of course I know what's going on. What intrigues me is that you had the nerve to threaten me. I'm just curious to see what you've come up with."
Llevana: "Just because you run the law in town doesn't put you above it. You're going to pay for what happened to Aldos."
Ulrich: "Aldos was a drunkard and a fool. He decided to draw a blade and attack a guard, so he paid the price."
Llevana: "You bastard! How many more people are going to "pay the price"? How many more have to die just so you can earn another gold coin?"
Ulrich: "I'm not going to stand here and debate this all night. You give me that evidence, and I'll consider not having you executed."
Llevana: "As you wish, Ulrich. Come my lovelies! Your feast has arrived!"

She will then paralyze him, and call some vicious pet rats to eat him alive. Once Ulrich has succumbed to the numerous rat bites, Llevana will simply say:

"I did what needed to be done."
"I have no regrets."
Ulrich Leland
"Justice has been done. Go tell Garrus what's transpired here. I await my fate."

After this she can be found at home at all hours, await her fate. When exiting the conversation, she will sigh:

"Go. Tell Garrus what I've done. I've nothing to hide."

Garrus after murder is disappointed but won't report you, though he can't ensure the same for Llevana:

"Llevana, on the other hand, will pay for her crime. I'll ensure that her stay in jail is not long. Obviously, I had no love for Ulrich, so I'll do what I can on her behalf."

In the end, he will tell you he managed to secure some reprieve for Llevana:

"After speaking with the Count and reviewing your testimony, we decided to reduce Llevana's sentence as she was acting for self-preservation."

After this she will be placed in jail for murdering Ulrich and will spend all her time pacing her cell, never eating or sleeping. She will be more than happy should you come to see her:

"Thank you for visiting me."
Ulrich Leland
"Don't be upset. I knew what I was doing the moment I asked you to lead Ulrich to me. I was fully aware of the consequences. Given the opportunity, I think Ulrich would have had me killed. I'm not sorry for what I've done, but I don't wish to be revered as a hero either. I thank you for your help. I'm sure your conscience weighed heavily upon you as you led Ulrich to his death. You did the right thing."

She will take her leave with:

"Farewell, serjo."

If Llevana ends up killing Ulrich for his greed, the townsfolk will comment:

"So, the mighty Ulrich Leland has fallen. Apparently Llevana Nedaren snapped and killed him. Good riddance I say."

Garrus' ApproachEdit

Garrus, on the other hand, isn't out for blood like Llevana, and will insist that you reconsider her plan so that you both can avoid being arrested for killing Ulrich. If you follow his orders and retrieve Ulrich's personal correspondence, Llevana won't be too pleased:

"I'm very disappointed at the decision you've made."
"Seems you've made your choice. I suppose we'll have to do it your way. I don't know what else to say."

Once you've managed to have Ulrich jailed and Garrus named as the new guard captain, bringing this information to Llevana will have her say:

"What's done is done."
"I'm overjoyed to hear that Garrus has replaced Ulrich as the Captain of the Guard. I'm sure he'll do a fine job."
Ulrich Leland
"Though I'm happy that Ulrich has been removed from his post, I'm still saddened that there'll be no true retribution for Aldos. When I was younger, and living in Vvardenfell, my parents instilled in me the code of an-eye-for-an-eye. It's hard not to see that through. I'm sorry, I shouldn't berate what you've done for Cheydinhal. Everyone appreciates what you did, as do I."

If Ulrich dies before she can carry out her plan, approaching and greeting her will net you the following:

"So much to do."
"I'm really not interested in speaking to you right now."

Unused DialogueEdit

Llevana has an unused line for when you approached her after taking Ulrich to her house. However, it is overridden by her launching into her tirade against the guard captain:

"That's all I'll be needing you for. Stay and watch, but don't interfere."

NotesEdit

  • Should Aldos survive during the quest, which is possible by killing Ulrich in the early stages of the quest, Llevana will react the same as when Garrus has him jailed, where she is overjoyed about Garrus replacing Ulrich.
