[edit] Detailed Walkthrough

[edit] Duties

Athyn Sarethi in his manor in Ald'ruhn will ask you to clear his son's name in the murder of Bralen Carvaren and find out what actually happened. Athyn will tell you that he is innocent of the crime and that Bralen was a friend. Keep talking to him to learn that he thinks that his son Varvur may be under a spell, after which he will ask you to check his room.

[edit] An Ash Statue

As you search Varvur's room, you will come across a Suspicious Ash Statue, which seems quite odd because nobody mentioned that Varvur was a Sixth House cultist. Talk to Varvur about the statue to learn that he has been having strange dreams since he received the statue, and he will ask you to take it.

[edit] Getting Rid of the Statue

Talk to Athyn Sarethi again about the statue and he'll direct you to Lloros Sarano at the Tribunal Temple in Ald'ruhn. Give him the statue and talk about the murder of Bralen. Sarano will instruct you to talk to Athyn Sarethi to arrange a meeting. Travel back to the Sarethi manor and inform Athyn Sarethi to complete the quest.

[edit] Notes

It is worth exploring the rest of the guard quarters as there is plenty of extravagant clothing to sell and a copy of 36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 17, a Long Blade skill book.
This quest is a prerequisite quest to Ash Statue, which is given by Lloros Sarano.
After the previous quest, rescuing Varvur Sarethi, Athyn says to wait a few days before he will give this quest. There is no actual timer, it is available next time you enter the Sarethi Manor - do not teleport in, as that will not trigger the script.
When Lloros Sarano asks you to give him the Ash statue, if you refuse, his Disposition will go down by five.
