Laythe Wavrick

Laythe Wavrick is an Imperial Chief Steward and Attendant to Countess Arriana Valga of Chorrol. During the quest, Canvas the Castle, you need to investigate Laythe as a suspect. It turns out he is a loyal steward.

Laythe wears a black & burgundy outfit with a pair of gold trimmed shoes. He is armed with a steel shortsword and carries the key to the private area of Chorrol Castle with a large amount of gold.

Laythe Wavrick begins his day at 7am and immediately heads to his post in Castle Chorrol Great Hall to help his Countess while court is in attendance. He will remain at his post next to the throne until 10pm, at which time he will return to his room in the Castle Chorrol Private Quarters to have a late meal. After spending two hours enjoying his meal Laythe Wavrick will wander around the throne until 1am, at which time he will finally go to bed.

Dialogue

When approached, he will politely remark:

"Welcome to the Great Hall of Castle Chorrol, milady/milord."

"Hello milady/milord."

Speaking to Laythe Wavrick for the first time will have him greet you by telling you his name and title:

"Hello. I am Laythe Wavrick, the Chief Herald and Countess Valga's attendant. Welcome to Chorrol."

Outside of regular hours for the Countess to be in attendance, he will inform you:

Countess Valga

"The Countess is in attendance from 8 in the morning until 6 in the evening. If you wish to seek audience with her, please return at these times. You are also welcome to wait in the seating area near the entrance. Good day."

If she is present or nearby, he will fuss:

Countess Valga

"The Countess is in attendance. Proper etiquette is expected."

On subsequent meetings he will greet you with:

"A pleasure to meet you again." if his Disposition is above 50.

Otherwise, it will be with a simple:

"Yes?"

When exiting conversation, he will say:

"Fare thee well."

Quest-related Events

Canvas the Castle

Questioning the Steward as part of your investigation will have him reply:

"My duties rely on watching no more than the throne and attending to visitors. But confidentially, I will say that Orgnolf has been acting a bit unusal [sic]. His abuse of drink has gotten worse lately. He has taken to asking for money from others to purchase spirits. A porter's wage does not befit his habit."

Sins of the Father

If you ask him about the stolen Honorblade of Chorrol Laythe Warvick will recount:

Stolen Item

"Many years ago, when the Count was still alive, a daring thief stole the ancient Honorblade of Chorrol from out of this castle. Why?"

[Hand over the sword]

"This is incredible! I never thought to see this sword again! How did you ... never mind, one should not look a gift horse in the mouth. Please accept my thanks on behalf of the people of Chorrol, for restoring this sword and the honor of our city. As a token of our gratitude, I bestow upon you a symbol of honor and heroism, the Escutcheon of Chorrol. You've done a great service to Chorrol, and you should be proud."

Never mind.

"Well then, you must excuse me. I have important business to attend to."
