Blood on a King's Hands[edit]

On the roof of the Temple of Ire, you'll find High Priestess Solgra. Suddenly, behind you you'll hear:

Penitent Vumnish: "There she is! My arrow will find its mark!"
High Priestess Solgra: "Behind you! On the ledges! More soldiers!"

Vumnish lets loose her arrow:

High Priestess Solgra: "Quick! Let's get—argh!"
Priest Uugus: "High priestess, no!"
Penitent Vumnish: "She's down! Make sure none of her allies survive!"
Priest Uugus: "Get the assassin! I'll take Solgra back to the temple! Go!"

Follow her up the stairs and she'll be waiting with two of her minions:

Penitent Vumnish: "Stop them! Don't let the traitors get past you!"

Dispatch the soldiers and follow her up to the tower:

"I surrender! I surrender!
You killed some of our best soldiers. I know when I'm outmatched."
You're nothing but a cowardly assassin!
"I have my orders.
Don't you know that High Priestess Solgra is a criminal, an enemy of the Orsimer? She's the leader of the Vosh Rakh! You should thank me for what I've done."
You know very well that Solgra isn't connected to the Vosh Rakh.
"How would I know such a thing? I'm just a simple soldier. I'm not a cultist in disguise. And even if I were, you can't prove a thing!
Do with me as you will, outsider. I serve a higher cause!"
I've had enough of cultists and assassins. <Kill>
"Trinimac will reward my service!"
Go and tell Alga and Kurog that I'm coming for them.
"You're going to let me live?
The forge-mother was right. You are a coward. There's no iron in your spine. You can't win, outsider. Trinimac is on our side, after all."

If you let her go, she'll run off and yell:

Penitent Vumnish: "You'll regret letting me live. But I'll enjoy watching the king tear you apart!"

Talviah Aliaria sacrificed[edit]

If Talviah Aliaria was sacrificed at Paragon's Remembrance, the start of this quest is slightly different. When she spots you, Eveli Sharp-Arrow, and Solgra on the roof, you'll hear:

Penitent Vumnish: "There she is! My arrow will find its mark!"
Eveli Sharp-Arrow: "More soldiers! Stay back, high priestess!"
<Penitent Vumnish fires an arrow, striking Eveli>
High Priestess Solgra: "Eveli, no! Find whoever did this! I'll get her back to the temple. Go!"
Penitent Vumnish: "Damn it! The interfering Wood Elf got in the way! Fall back!"

From here, the dialogue is the same as above when you follow Vumnish up the stairs.
