The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I get this quest?
1 of 7: You'll first have to get your character up to level 14 or higher.
2 of 7: Enter any inn and look around for a guy named Sam Guevenne. If you don't see him, try again later, or try another inn.
3 of 7: When you find him, talk to him and accept his challenge to a drinking contest.
4 of 7: Wait for him to take the first drink and talk to you, then choose the "here we go" dialogue option to drink your first drink.
5 of 7: Wait until he talks to you again, then accept a second drink and then a third.
6 of 7: After you pass out, you'll wake up in a temple with a priestess griping at you.
7 of 7: Either pass a persuade check or give her a bribe to get this quest. (Or you can just ask if a man named Sam was with you.)
