The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Return to Torsten Cruel-Sea.
1 of 5: Before you leave the cave, use the Flames spell to burn up the big red Summerset Shadows banner in Linwe's room for fun. (Delvin Mallory will comment on it when you talk to him later.)
2 of 5: Go back the way you came and exit the cave, then return to Windhelm and use the quest arrow to track down Torsten again.
3 of 5: Tell him you have Fjotli's locket to finish the quest and get a piece of leveled magic jewelry. Note that Niranye will be a guild fence from now on that you can sell stolen (and non-stolen) items to, provided you didn't kill her earlier.
4 of 5: There will now be three "thief cache" barrels in Windhelm that work like the ones in Riften.
5 of 5: Other benefits include guild fences having more gold, a new merchant moving into the Ragged Flagon area, and the ability to pay off your Eastmarch hold bounty to guards anywhere within the hold by handing over half the bounty in gold.
