The Elder Scrolls III: Bloodmoon Hints
The Frostmoth Smugglers
1 of 9: Talk to Carius about "fort business" and "weapons being smuggled" after finishing his first quest to get this one.
2 of 9: He's sure weapons are being smuggled out for sale on Vvardenfell, and he recommends two local soldiers whom he trusts to accompany you on your investigation and raid.
3 of 9: You can only have one of the soldiers following around and helping, so you'll have to decide which one you want.
4 of 9: Saenus Lusius on the ground floor of the fort's General Quarters area isn't the best fighter of the two, but he has more in the way of useful "connections" within the fort. He's most helpful with the investigation phase of the operation.
5 of 9: Gaea Artoria in the General Quarters Upper Level area is a more dedicated fighter, with less helpful advice on how to find out who the smugglers are and where they're hiding out. She's most helpful with the raid phase of the operation.
6 of 9: Once you choose one of them, you're stuck with that one until it's over. Don't think you can choose Lusius for the investigation phase and then switch to Artoria for the raid.
7 of 9: After you deal with Spurius in the caves, return to the fort to find that it's been attacked.
8 of 9: Talk to a guard to learn that Carius is missing, and that you should check in with Artoria or Lusius (whichever one you didn't go to the cave with).
9 of 9: You'll find the person you're looking for in the same place he or she was in when you first got this smuggler quest.
