[edit] Detailed Walkthrough

[edit] Business

In order to become Grandmaster of House Hlaalu, Duke Vedam Dren in the Grand Council Chamber in Ebonheart will tell you that you must win control of the Camonna Tong from his brother, Orvas Dren, in the Dren Plantation north of Vivec.

[edit] Persuading Orvas Dren

There are a number of ways to accomplish this, included killing him (which is possibly most difficult, as he is a high-level character). If you are persuasive enough, you can get Orvas to agree to give control of the syndicate to you. Alternatively, you can find an incriminating note in his basement and blackmail him into giving you control.

[edit] Grandmaster

Return to Duke Vedam in Ebonheart to complete the quest and be named Grandmaster of House Hlaalu.

[edit] Notes

• It may be possible to become Grandmaster after becoming House Father, skipping Council Member completely. Do all of Nileno's quests in Balmora, all but the last of the quests for Helvi in Caldera, 2-3 of Edryno's, one of Ilmeni Dren's and both of the Duke's. You should skip Council Member and go directly to Grandmaster.
• You can also become Grandmaster anytime by killing Orvas Dren. Simply speak to the Duke about the Camonna Tong once Orvas is dead and he will promote you. However, take note that you will not be able to do any other quests from the Duke if you advance to Grandmaster.
• If you have already completed the Free Hides-His-Foot quest, you will know more about the location of the note.
• If you have already been named the hortator for House Hlaalu, you will automatically skip this quest and be named Grandmaster, Duke Vedam Dren will tell you that you clearly already have Orvas Dren's approval (since you needed it to become hortator).
