4.11 Mad Lord of Milk/Delyna Mandas in Tel Fyr
==============================================
Athyn Sarethi tells you that a Redoran noble, Arethan Mandas, has gone insane, and is demanding tribute from travellers from the cavern Milk.  He wants you to take care of the situation.

Travel to Ebonheart to speak with Arethan's father, Llerar Mandas (a Grand
Council Representative).  He's at the Grand Council Chambers in Castle
Ebonheart's west keep.  The fastest way to get there is casting a Divine
Intervention Spell once you get off the boat at Ebonheart.  The is because the
Imperial Shrine is next door to the Grand Council Chambers.  Talk to Llerar
Mandas and he tells you that his son has gone mad since Arethan's daughter,
Delyna Mandas, has been captured by the Telvannis at Tel Fyr.

To get to Tel Fyr, travel to Sadrith Mora and swim.  Tel Fyr is southwest of
Sadrith Mora.  The entrance to the wizard tower is near the boat docked at the island.  Enter Onyx Hall, and then Hall of Fyr.  In the centre of the hall where the entrances of the three rooms meet, there is an opening above your head.  Levitate up the tower and go to the north room. (There are no other way to reach the room where Divayth Fyr, the master of Tel Fyr, is).  Ask Divayth about Delyna Mandas.  He tells you that he has too many visitors and he doesn't keep track of them.  He also tells you that you're welcome to search for her.
Go back to Onyx Hall.  Open the locked and trapped door named "Golden Door".
Delyna Mandas is locked inside there.  Talk to her and escort her to the outside of the tower Tel Fyr.  Once outside, she gives you a locket to give to her father.

Go back to Ald'ruhn and off to the cavern Milk.

Note: Patch 1.2.0722 has improved the directions to Milk (according to the patch info).  I played this quest before patching to 1.2.0722.
Hopefully, cavern Milk will be easier to find using the new and improved
Journal directions.

Leave Ald'ruhn and at the first signpost, head towards Maar Gan.  At the second signpost, continue in the direction of Maar Gan (Gnisis and Caldera is in the same direction).  At the third signpost, head west to Gnisis and Caldera.  The road to Maar Gan spills off at this signpost towards north.  At the 4th signpost, continue west to Gnisis.  At the 5th signpost keep going towards
Gnisis.  You should be able to see the 6th signpost from the 5th one.  Keep going towards Gnisis at the 6th signpost.  When you see the first set of trees
(3 trees) on your right after the 6th signpost, take the path between the 1st set of trees and the 2nd set (also 3 trees).  The path heads north.  Follow this path and you'll see the entrance to Milk.

Enter the cavern Milk.  To avoid bloodshed, sneak or cast chameleon or invisibility.  Find and talk to Arethan Mandas.  After you give him his daughter's locket, he partly recovers and promises not to attack travellers again.

Report to Llerar Mandas at Ebonheart to get an Ebony Closed Helm.  Report to
Athyn Sarethi afterwards.

Reward: Ebony Closed Helm


There are no more duties from Athyn Sarethi.  He also tells you that in order to advance further, you must earn the support of at least two of the
Councilmen.  He suggests Brara Morvayn and Hlaren Ramoran.  You must also build a stronghold.


4.12 Mission to Morvayn Manor
=============================
Brara Morvayn lives in the Morvayn Quarters in the Redoran Council Hall.  It's in the northwest corner, directly underneath Galsa Gindu's House.  She will support you on the council if you can destroy an ash statue for her.  She suspects the ash statue indirectly causes the death of her husband.

Enter the Morvayn Manor, east of Skar (the Manor District).  You'll be in a dining area with two doors.  Enter the locked door.  There are corprus beasts in the Manor so be prepared for some action.  Go down the stairs and then go up the stairs at the other end. (Use either of the two. They lead to the same place).  Enter the only room and you'll find the ash statue on top of two crates in the centre.  Take the ash statue to Lloros Sarano at the the Ald'ruhn temple.  Lloros Sarano will destroy it for you.  Report to Brara Morvayn.

Reward: Amulet of Mighty Blows from Brara Morvayn.  Her support on the council.


4.13 Taxes from Gnisis
======================
Hlaren Ramoran is in the Ramoran Private Quarters, Ramoran Manor, Manor
District (Skar).  He wants you to collect taxes from Gnisis for him because his regular tax collector has fallen ill.  Go to Gnisis and enter Abelmawia's Hut, west of the temple.  Ask Hetman Abelmawia about "taxes from Gnisis" and he'll give you 60gp.  Return to Hlaren Ramoran with the money.

Reward: None


4.14 Nalvilie Saren
===================
Hlaren Ramoran wants to find out what happened to an old acquaintance of his,
Nalvilie Saren.  The Saren family lives in Vivec.

Note: For those who have yet to set foot on Vivec.  Vivec is divided into different buildings, called Cantons.  Each canton is divided into four tiers - upperworks, waistworks, canalside and underworks.

Travel to the Saren Manor in Redoran Plaza (upperworks of the Redoran
Canton/Compound) in Vivec.  There are two doors to the Saren Manor from the
Plaza, one south, the other southeast.  Enter the door at the southeast corner of the Plaza.  Speak to Toris Saren.  He tells you that Nalvilie has disgraced the family and she now has a consignment shop on the canal level of St Olms
Canton (Vivec).

Her shop is in Canal South-One (that's at south canalside) of St Olms.  Talk to her about Hlaren Ramoran and she refuses to ever speak with him.

Go back to Hlaren Ramoran in Ald'ruhn.  When you talk to him, you automatically lie to him that Nalvilie is dead.

Reward: Hlaren Ramoran's support on the council.

Bug: Even though Hlaren Ramoran mentioned about supporting me when I told him about Nalvilie, Athyn Sarethi didn't seem to recognise it. I had to go away, do some quests, talk to Hlaren many times before the problem sort itself out.  (I did the stronghold quests and a lot of rests in the waiting time).

You know the problem is solved when Hlaren Ramorn says "You have my support on the council" when asked about taxes from Gnisis. (He says "I will try and forget about her" when asked about Nalvilie Saren).  To check
Athyn Sarethi on the status of any of the Councillor's support, talk to him about the specific Councillor.


4.15 Stronghold: Commence Work
==============================
Go to the Redoran Council Entrance and enter the Redoran Council Hall.  Enter
Galsa Gindu's House in the northwest corner of the Redoran Council Hall.  Talk to Galsa Gindu and she tells you that you need 5000gp and a construction contract from Duke Dren in Ebonheart.

Go to the Grand Council Chambers in Ebonheart.  There are three spiral staircases.  Walk up the southernmost one.  It leads to the hall where Duke
Dren is in.  Talk to him and take the "vow to do what you can for the people" and he'll give you the construction contract.  Return to Galsa Gindu with
5000gp and the contract and she'll commence work on your stronghold.  She tells you that your stronghold will be built in Bal Isra (see your paper map, it's north of Ald'ruhn).  Don't bother going there yet.  You won't find anything.


4.16 Stronghold: Inspect Construction
=====================================
A week after you have handed over your gold and the construction contract, you'll get a journal entry telling you to go see Galsa Gindu to discuss the progress of the construction.  She wants you to check on the site.

Take the road from Ald'ruhn to Maar Gan.  You shouldn't miss the construction site at all because the lower right hand corner of your screen will say "Bal
Isra" and, _(un)fortunately_, Bal Isra is only a very small stretch of the road.  Get off to the east side of the road and you'll see an orc standing near a typical Ald'ruhn style hut.  He's your foreman in charge, Bugdul gro-Kharbush.  Talk to him.  He tells you that the first stage of your stronghold will be finished within a week.  Report back to Galsa Gindu.

Reward (4.15 & 4.16): 5000gp poorer in exchange for a piece of real estate in the middle of nowhere.

Promotion: When the first stage of your stronghold is finished (You will get an entry in your journal when that happens) and you've gained the support of both Hlaren Ramoran and Brara Morvayn, see Athyn Sarethi to be promoted to House Father.  (Ask him about advancement again and he'll tell you need the support of another two councillors and a better stronghold to advance to Councilman.  That's quests 4.17 -
4.19).


4.17 Shut the Mines Down/Evidence of Corruption
===============================================
Councillor Garisa Llethri lives in Llethri Manor under Skar. To find him, go to
Llethri Manor Entrance, enter Llethri Manor Bedrooms, then go into Llethri
Private Quarters.  He will give you support on the council if you shutdown the
Caldera ebony mine.  First, he wants evidence of corruption.

There are two gates out of Caldera, one north, one south.  To get to the mines, take the north gate.  The signpost just outside the gate will have Caldera
Mining Company on it.  Follow the signposts on the road to the Mining Company.
Eventually, you'll end up in the mining "town", southwest of Caldera.

Note: If you're curious, ask the people inside the Mining Company Office about the lastest rumours.  They'll tell you how the Redorans are furious over the Caldera mines. That's why you're here shutting them down.

There are two slave shacks in the town, south of the Mining Bunkhouse. You'll have to go through the bunkhouse to get to that part of town.  Enter Slave
Shack Two.  Talk to Dahleena about evidence of corruption and she tells you about a record book inside the chest on the second floor of the Governor's Hall
(Caldera).  _DO NOT FREE HER_ (this is very important).

Go back to Caldera.  The Governor's Hall is in the north part of town.
There're 5 spiral staircases from the entrance hall.  Go up the northenmost one.  Enter the first wooden door you see.  There is a locked and trapped chest called Odral Helvi's Chest.  Take the Secret Caldera Ledger inside.

Give this secret ledger to Garisa Llethri (Ald'ruhn).  He tells you that now you have evidence, you can go and halt the operation of the mine.

Go back to the mining town. Go to the top of the Mining Guard Tower and take the Caldera Slave Key.  Enter Slave Shack Two and talk to Dahleena again.  Ask her about halting the operation (or similar) and she tells you that she is the head slave and freeing her will effectively halt the mine's operation.  Free her.  Return to Garisa Llethri and tell him the news.

Reward: Ebony Boots from Garisa Llethri.  His support on the council.

Alternative: If you have freed Dahleena already, it is possible to halt the mines by killing Ordal Helvi (Governor's Hall, room next to the one with the record book) and Stlennios Vibato (Mining Company Office).
However, you will not be given the ebony boots as Garisa Llethri thinks your method is undesirable. (from Luke Jacobs and Tony Patrick)

Also, respawning Dahleena using the console does not work because the "new" Dahleena does not have the correct dialogue options. (from Tony
Patrick)


4.18 Miner Arobar's Support
===========================
Enter Arobar Manor (under skar), go through the door to the Grand Quarters, then through the next door (Private Quarters), and then turn right and enter the Manor Bedrooms.  Miner Arobar is inside the room on the left. Talk to him and he'll reject the notion of supporting you on the council immediately.  See
Athyn Sarethi and he'll tell you Miner Arobar has been acting strange lately.
He suspects that Miner Arobar maybe under Telvanni influence.

Go the Sadrith Mora.  Talk to the locals about Miner Arobar and you'll learn that Master Neloth is holding Nartise Arobar hostage.  Nartise Arobar is the daughter of Miner Arobar.  Neloth lives in Tel Naga, the wizard tower in the centre of Sadrith Mora.

Enter Tel Naga Hall.  You'll find Nartise Arobor standing inside a cell.  The cell has no door, with only Galmir guarding the exit.  You can walk right up to
Nartise Arobar and talk to her.  (Strange way to keep a prisoner).  There are two more Telvannis on the other side of the Hall.  Since Galmir is blocking your escape path, kill him first (taunt him to fight you so you don't have to pay a bounty).  Then talk to Nartise Arobor and ask her to follow you.  (I casted 80% chameleon on both Nartise and myself, but I don't think it's necessary).  Leave Tel Naga, walk towards the Gateway Inn (northwest part of
Sadrith Mora), go through the stone door underneath the Inn, and walk to the docks.  Nartise thanks you and tell you to see her father for a reward.

Return to Arobar and get your reward.

Note: You don't need the Hospitality Papers for Sadrith Mora to do this quest.
If you wish, you can purchase the Papers from Angaredhel in the Gateway
Inn.  Ask him or the locals if you don't know what are Hospitality
