Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Tienius Delitian[edit]

Speak with Tienius Delitian in the Royal Palace Throne Room upstairs from the Royal Palace Reception area. He'll ask you to help find out the recent rumors about the death of King Llethan. You are to gain their trust, as he puts it, and see what they speak about (you may need as high as a 100 disposition in order to find out).

Find Some Rumors[edit]

Talk to people in Mournhold about King Llethan's Death. Among a number of things you'll hear one related to King Helseth poisoning the former King. You should receive a journal entry telling you to report back to Tienius.

Return to Tienius Delitian[edit]

Returning to Tienius, he takes the information you have about the possible poisoning and wants more info. In particular, he wants you to find a copy of The Common Tongue, a publication that recently has been circulating critical articles about the new King. (Due to a bug, the quest finishes at this point; you aren't actually required to go find a copy of The Common Tongue and return it to him.)

The Common Tongue[edit]

There are several copies of The Common Tongue. You can find one lying on the ground next to a merchant stall in the Great Bazaar, just northwest from the exit from the Plaza. Two other copies can be found at The Winged Guar, the tavern in Godsreach. One is inside, on the counter, and the other one is outside, on the second floor balcony. There are also many other copies in shops and houses throughout Mournhold.

An issue of The Common Tongue

Tienius Again[edit]

Return the paper to Tienius who will thank you and ask you for further assistance.

Notes[edit]

Bugs[edit]

  • This quest will finish early, after you tell Tienius about The Common Tongue the first time (stage 100). He will still ask you to go find a copy of it and bring it back, but when you speak with him again, he will start talking about the next quest (A Temple Informant), whether or not you have actually brought him a copy of The Common Tongue.
    • After bringing back a copy of The Common Tongue, if you speak to Tienius about official matters, the topic King Helsing's Death will come back up. Asking about that topic will close the quest properly.
    • If that does not work, you can use the console command Journal TR05_People 110 to mark this quest as complete and remove it from the active quest list in your journal.

Quest Stages[edit]

The following Journal ID and Index codes can be used with the Journal console command to manually update the quest to a certain point.

Speak to the People (TR05_People)
Index Finishes Quest Journal Entry
1 Tienius Delitian, Helseth's Captain of the Guards, wants to know the source of rumors about King Llethan's death. I will have to speak to people, and earn their trust, then see how they speak about King Llethan's death.
50 Someone told me of reading in a broadside sheet called "The Common Tongue" that Helseth poisoned many people in the West. The suggestion seems to be that Helseth has poisoned Athyn Llethan. I should report this to Tienius Delitian.
100 I told Tienius Delitian that a possible source of rumors about King Llethan's death was a broadside sheet called "The Common Tongue".
110 Finishes quest☑ I gave Tienius Delitian a copy of "The Common Tongue", a possible source of rumors about King Llethan's death. Tienius Delitian seemed pleased with my work. He will mention my loyal services and exceptional qualities to King Helseth, and he says he might find further employment for me.
Speak to the People (TR05_People_Ravani)
1 Ravani Llethan, King Llethan's widow, told me she read in a broadside sheet called 'The Common Tongue' that Helseth poisoned many people in the West. From this the suggestion is that Helseth has poisoned her husband, Athyn Llethan.
