Detailed Walkthrough

Nalvyna needs a courier for a sealed letter bound for Glaucia Rumariil, the Empire's Minister of House Hlaalu Affairs. Glaucia has residence in the Ebon Tower of Old Ebonheart. You can reach this city by going east and crossing the Thirr River, or more easily by taking the boat outside of the Port Authority building. The Ebon Tower is Old Ebonheart's castle, and Glaucia's office is in the Curia building there, in the western offices.

Deliver the letter to Glaucia (you can read it beforehand, but this will reduce your ultimate reward). She has, in Nalvyna's eyes, overstepped her authority with a proposal made at Andothren's Hlaalu Council to replace Nalvyna with her own candidate. It transpires that Nalvyna has sent you to assist Glaucia instead, and so she requests that you assist with finding a job for a scribe, Gerardus Tilianus.

You can speak to Gerardus in the lobby immediately outside of Glaucia's office. He says that he has already sought work in various places across the city, which will help narrow down where to look next.

"I thought I was going to get a job in Andothren, but now you're saying that you'll look for one here in the city? I've been asking everywhere I thought might have need for my trade, but I might have overlooked something. But I'd advise against asking the Burgrave, the Briricca Bank, the East Empire Company, the Customs or Harbor Offices, as well as any of the private manors, because I already asked and they all turned me down."

There are a number of individuals with a unique response to the job for a scribe topic, including several quest-givers, but you will ultimately have no success with any of them, other than Fothresa Aravel of the Fighters Guild. She will ask you to persuade the guild leader, Sharnoga gra-Mal, to employ Gerardus, and Sharnoga will need no convincing provided that her disposition exceeds 30.

Return to Glaucia once the job is secured to inform her. She will be pleased, and will give you a further sealed letter to return to Nalvyna.

Return now to Andothren to speak to Nalvyna, and talk to her about the sealed letter. She will be pleased that the matter is resolved, but her reward will vary depending on whether you read either of the letters - expect 200 scrip if you did not, 150 if you read one, and 100 if you read both.
