The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints

Ahdarji's Heirloom

  • 1 of 12: Talk to Cristophe about "Thieves Guild special duties" after finishing his second quest to get this one put in your journal.
  • 2 of 12: Go talk to S'krivva about special duties after fencing a total of at least 200 gold in stolen goods.
  • 3 of 12: She says to go to Leyawiin and help a poor widow get back a ring that was stolen by a freelance thief.
  • 4 of 12: Fast-travel to Leyawiin and bribe a beggar to learn where Ahdarji usually hangs out, then follow the green quest arrow to where she currently is.
  • 5 of 12: Talk to her about her stolen ring to learn that Amusei, that red Argonian guy from the Thieves Guild sign-up quest, is the one who stole it.
  • 6 of 12: Ask him about Ahdarji's ring and give him a lockpick so he can free himself later on.
  • 7 of 12: Go tell Ahdarji what you've learned. She'll admit the ring's true usefulness and double her reward offer for its return.
  • 8 of 12: Then go talk to a beggar about the recovered ring.
  • 9 of 12: Bribe him to learn that the countess' handmaiden, Hlidara Mothril, might be willing to help if you can get her disposition up high enough.
  • 10 of 12: Now you can formulate a plan for stealing back the ring.
  • 11 of 12: After you get away with the ring, go give it to Ahdarji and then report success to S'krivva in Bravil.
  • 12 of 12: TIP: Before you leave Leyawiin, break into a few houses at night and steal stuff to sell to Dar-Jee. Ahdarji's house is a really good one to find lots of fence-able things in.
