Unfriendly Competition quest, Need help Options

[Olav]

Greetings. Anyone done this quest?

*SPOILERS BELOW*








It's the quest you get in the Three Brothers Trade Goods in the Imperial City, where you are to follow Thoronir around and see what he does after he closes his shop.

I followed him to that small park after he had his supper at the traders HQ, and waited all night while he was standing around with that contact. I also sneaked for several hours just behind the wall where they were standing, but no dialogue was heard from them. I also talked to his contact until he answered all the questions and told me to leave him alone.

Any tips on what to do?

Thanks.

Thanks,

I'm a mage, both in class and in starsign, so I already have a mysticism skill of 54 after 2 days of playing (about 20 game hours. Hey, it's Easter holiday!). Using 'sense life' spell a lot by the way.

I have the soul trap spell, but I've completely forgotten to use it so far. I also have a small collection of soul gems, although I suspect them to be different from Morrowind, as they say 'soul level lesser/none' etc. and have different values (gold) even when they're the same. Perhaps this means they already have souls in them?

SPOILER:

So Azura's Star is in this game as well? Nice! Quite handy that one. Well don't tell me where to find it. Only recently started going 'manual' from place to place actually. Quite rewarding to find different caves and creatures etc. when traveling.

One of the things that made my eyebrows go down when reading about Oblivion was the 'instant travel'-feature, but I must admit I've been using it almost on every inter-city travel so far. Oh well, I guess it's no bigger 'cheat' than silt striders etc. in Morrowind.

Anyway I'm getting more and more into this game. Incredible! The graphics are fantastic, and I'm starting to feel like I'm really there in real life when I'm playing. No game has ever done that to me since 'Frontier' (Elite 2). All the spoken dialogue really enhance the atmosphere.

I allways wondered what people have against Fast Travel.I maen:If you consider it a cheat DON'T USE IT.It's easy as that.I prefer to run myself (stealth char developing athletics) but sometimes i'm so lazy,that i fast travel betwen Imperial City districts.Please don't laugh.

I see you are enjoying the game!!!Unfortinatly i don't know how graphics is really good.I'm forced to play oblivion in 800x600 ,low details,no AA,no bloom.Basicly the game looks like improved Morrowind

About the dialog,i think that it really creates a great athmosphere.But i think that dialog could be done better.I find the Emperor's speach a little bit...well......not enough emotion in it.I was also shocked whan i talked to an Orc woman.She sounds like a Nord woman!!!The devs spent most of their budget on star voice casting (Patrick Stewart,Sean Bean).That's why some races have the same voice-actor.However,who ever voice-overed Mankar Camoran did i really good job

Enjoy the game!!!
