The Fighters Guild questlineis one of the longest inOblivion Remastered,but things heat up once you get to the last couple of missions, starting with Infiltration. Modryn Oreyn has been expelled from the guild by Vilena Donton, but that hasn’t stopped your former superior from searching for more information about the mysterious Blackwood Company.
The Blackwood company has become a thorn in the Fighters Guild’s side, continuously stealing their contracts away thanks to their ever-growing ranks. After helping Modryn in the Information Gathering quest, he’ll ask you to go undercover and join the Blackwood Company to find out more information about their strange group.
How To Start Infiltration
After you begin working with Modryn Oreyn and complete the Information Gathering quest, learning more about the Blackwood Company, your next quest will begin:Infiltration.
With your prisoner, Ajum-Kajin, dead, your only choice remaining is to infiltrate the Blackwood Company and find out more about their meteoric rise to prominence.
How To Join The Blackwood Company
Enter Leyawiin via the west gate and head straight for theBlackwood Company in the southwestern courtyardacross from the Mages Guild.
Find Jeetum-Ze, an Argonian,who can usually be found on the second floor.
Ask to join the Blackwood company,and go along with his conversation. When you’re done, follow him to the training hall downstairs and meet up with three other members to hear about your mission.
Since you’re a recruit, you need toprepare by speaking with Jeetum-Ze,who tells you to take a potion calledHist Sap,an Argonian export, which will increase your skills in battle.
He explains that the Blackwood Company has its own Hist tree, but for now, he cuts the conversation short and commands youto drink the Hist Sap and go with your comrades.
Drink the Hist Sap, which doesn’t display its effects, tobegin your mission.
You may need to wait a few moments for the teleportation.
Once you do, you’re immediately teleported to a location calledWater’s Edge.
When you arrive, you’ll notice that there aretons of Goblins in the area,but they’re strangely docile and not attacking – your first clue that something is wrong with this Hist Sap.
From here, you’ll be commanded to clear out the houses, and you have a choice: follow orders and kill everything you find inside the houses. Resist the order or follow it; it’s up to you.
You can enter and exit the house without killing anyone, and you’ll still progress in the quest, sothis part is based on your preference.
The rewards will not change based on this choice. You also cannot save the Goblinsusing restoration spells.
Once you’re done killing, or you enter and exit a house, you’ll suddenly beteleported again, this time into Modryn Oreyn’s housein Chorrol.
Modryn explains that you were found unconscious in Leyawiin. Tell him about theHist Sap and the tree.Oreyn asks you toreturn to Water’s Edge to check on the residents there.
This is about to be awkward if you killed all the goblins earlier.
Returning To Water’s Edge
When you’re back in Water’s Edge, regardless of your choice inside the houses, you’ll find the bodies of several villagers and dead sheep scattered across the village, with a single surviving villager looking over the carnage.
Speak to Marcel Amelionand hear his confused mourning for the dead before he asks you to leave.
What Rewards Do You Get From Infiltration?
Return to Modryn Oreyn in Chorroland report your findings to him, completing the Infiltration quest.
Althoughyou won’t receive any gold or items for completing this quest,continuing to speak to Oreyn about Hist will give you access to the next quest: The Hist.
