I looked through my screenshot folder and found one from that old quest and it was automatically tagged with the date.
Anyway, enough of Geralt, I've decided to travel all the way to Markarth to do that little errand before coming back to enter Windhelm for the first time and it seems I need to get into a locked place again and there's quite a few people wandering around here.

So, Brelyna, you stand right here to block this path so that no-one can watch me picking this lock. And Arissa, you stand over there and block the view if any guard comes around the corner.
Good.
This is how you plan things.

Crouch into sneak mode.
--HIDDEN--
Good, goood.

*approaches door*
Now let's pick this lock.
*presses E*
*door automatically opens*
![:huh: :huh:](/media/kunena/emoticons/wassat.png)
Oh, yeah. I've got a key for this place and I'm allowed in.
I forgot again. It's a while since I've been here.
![:shrug: :shrug:](/media/kunena/emoticons/shrug.gif)
It was still a good plan though.
But I don't think I'm allowed in this next place, even though I have a key for that one too.
And without spoilering I'll add that I've finally met a spider that I liked!
![:woohoo: :woohoo:](/media/kunena/emoticons/w00t.png)
And found some special loot. Especially special if you've played Morrowind.
![:excited: :excited:](/media/kunena/emoticons/excited.gif)
The Thieves' Guild are gonna like me when I return there.
![:aha: :aha:](/media/kunena/emoticons/aha-.gif)
And I wonder what's down here?
![:hmm: :hmm:](/media/kunena/emoticons/thinking.gif)
*cough*
*cough cough*
Why is that little icon flashing in the corner?
*cough*
*notices vanishing health bar*
I'm dying for some reason!!
EDIT: Ooops.
Killed someone important and got into a bit of Bounty related trouble...
(And I don't mean the choccy bar with the coconut that gets stuck in your teeth. Crime kind of Bounty)
... all of which required a bit more killing.
Much more than was necessary.
I discovered afterwards that there was a clever trap that I could have used to save/distract certain people whilst still being sneaky but ...erm.. well.
![:oops: :oops:](/media/kunena/emoticons/emoticon_blush.gif)
I shall pop in the Hall Of The Dead later to pay my respects and say sorry. Sorry, but you did attack me too and I can't be the one doing the dying. Don't you know who I am?
Can't believe I started this post by claiming to have a plan.

It seemed like a good one too.
