The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I help Ainethach?
1 of 4: Tell Atar that you want him and his men to leave.
2 of 4: Try the persuade option first. If it fails, either bribe Atar to leave or choose to attack.
3 of 4: If you choose to attack, Atar and all of his Silver-Blood Mercenary pals will turn hostile. You only have to kill Atar, but you may not be able to leave without fighting his mercs, too.
4 of 4: After Atar is killed or agrees to leave, go tell Ainethach that the sellswords won't be a problem now. He'll give you a leveled amount of gold as a reward.
