Once youstart down the path of the Dark Brotherhood,it will be hard to wipe your hands of all the murders you’ll commit inOblivion Remastered.However, each mission offers savvy assassins unique ways to hunt their prey, with A Matter Of Honor presenting you the opportunity to track your target across Cyrodiil.
Your mark is Alval Uvani, a traveling merchant with a predictable schedule you’re able to follow to anticipate his location and plot his demise. You’re free to dispatch this enemy however you see fit, leaving you a handful of different locations and methods at your disposal, especially if you learn about Uvani’s allergy to honey.
How To Start A Matter Of Honor
Once you’ve finished Final Justiceand picked up your reward from the coffin at Fort Redman, you’ll immediately begin the next quest, A Matter of Honor.
This Dead Drop instructs you to killa traveling Dunmer merchant named Alval Uvani,whose schedule was also included alongside the drop. It also adds that Uvani has a severe allergy to honey.
Where Should You Kill Alval Uvani?
While selecting a location to intercept Uvani depends on where you are and what day it is, you shouldstay one step ahead of your target.
Alval Uvani’sscheduleis as follows:
The smartest approach is tohead to the next location on Uvani’s schedule, rather than trying to catch upwith him, particularly via fast travel.
Fast traveling accelerates the in-game time according to roughly the length of time it would take for you to travel from your current location to your destination.
For example, if it’s Loredas, you should head to Leyawiin to meet Uvani there before he arrives.
Meeting Uvani in Bravil on Morndas or Tirdas is generally the easiestplace, as his travel time throughout Cyrodiil sometimes varies, so it can be difficult to know exactly when Uvani might arrive while he travels from city to city.
Picking his starting point ensures that you have a better chance of catching him, especially if Uvani gets caught up on a slow travel route and has to restart.
While killing Uvani with a direct attack is doable, there’s an even easier method of dealing with this target, so you don’t have to worry about his dangerous Destruction spells.
Alval Uvani has asignificant allergy to honey, so you canParalyzehim by forcing him to drink Mead,which contains honey.
If Uvani is sitting down at an Inn and eating,replacing his food with Meadwill result in him drinking it and becoming paralyzed, making him an easy kill.
Or you can just replace everything in his Leyawiin house with Mead if you enjoy a slightly lethal practical joke.
If you’d prefer to attack Alval Uvani directly and get things over with,wait for him to leave the Lonely Suitor Lodge where he stays and attack him along the roads,where you can sneak up on him and not worry about bystanders.
Equip any Spell Absorption, Reflect, or Resistance gear you have before attacking, and Uvani will be a quick fight.
Killing Uvani insecret or with Mead also avoids any bountiesthat you might’ve gotten for killing him in front of people.
