DialogueEdit

She tells you about herself if you haven't completed the related quest.

"I may be an Imperial, but I've served the city of Markarth since the days of the Longhouse Emperors. I've grown to love this land and its people.
That's why I agreed to stay on and assist Ard Caddach. Good administrators are hard to find, after all."

Quest-Related EventsEdit

Speak with her after you read the nearby job posting.

"Are you here about the notice? So many new faces in the city, but we could use the help.
If you need work and aren't concerned about the risks, then we should talk. As a former Imperial consul, I assure you that this is all aboveboard."

What sort of work are you offering?

"Oh, not me. At least, not directly. I'm more of an administrator. Have been since the days of the Longhouse Emperors. Luckily, Ard Caddach likes me and decided to keep me employed.
You want Bralthahawn, Gwenyfe, and Nelldena. They offer jobs on a daily basis."

I want to know more about the kind of work they need accomplished.

"Curious and deliberate. Good qualities in an adventurer. Usually means you'll live longer.
All right, what do you want to know?"

Tell me more about the jobs Nelldena offers.

"Did you notice the strange storms sweeping the countryside? They aren't natural! The result of rituals performed by invaders known as the Gray Host.
Nelldena seeks help to disrupt the rituals and stop the storms. You'll need a group to deal with this."

Tell me more about the jobs Bralthahawn offers.

"Bralthahawn represents the various clans of the Reach and offers jobs that benefit them. These involve acquiring items or gathering components from specific locations.
A single adventurer can usually handle these tasks without too much trouble."

Tell me more about the jobs Gwenyfe offers.

"Some terrible creatures have recently been spotted in the area. The Reach clans can't deal with them and the ard's soldiers are busy with the invading forces, so Gwenyfe is recruiting adventurers.
A group will be needed to end these monsters."

All right. How do I get one of these jobs?

"If you want to work alone, see Bralthahawn. Odd tasks, but they pay well. For group work, talk to Gwenyfe and Nelldena. Their jobs are dangerous. Bring friends.
Here's an advance. To show you that Ard Caddach personally supports these efforts."

After you complete her quest, you can ask more about her:

"Remember, Bralthahawn for jobs you can handle on your own, and Gwenyfe or Nelldena for jobs that require groups to deal with.
For every task you complete, you will be paid for your efforts."

What's an Imperial consul doing in the Reach?

"Oh, how quickly we forget our history! You do remember that the Longhouse Emperors came from the Reach, don't you? They ruled the Empire for decades, including the Reach.
I was sent here as my first assignment. I grew to love the place."

The Empire's gone. Why are you still here?

"Ard Caddach came to appreciate my administrative skills. When the Empire fell, he requested I stay. Now I maintain records for the job brokers.
So few of the Reachfolk have the ability to read and write, which makes my service extremely valuable."

NotesEdit

• She is the author of An Imperial in Markarth, which can be found on a stool near her.
