Heed Astrid’s instructions, and venture deeper into the Dark Brotherhood’s Sanctuary, where Nazir and the rest of the Brotherhood are talking about their clandestine activities with an air of mirth. You can speak to the other members, but your only critical contact is Nazir. This man has some side contracts you may be interested in fulfilling. Nazir is also a Trainer and can teach you how to be more effective when wearing Light Armor.

Trainer (Light Armor): Nazir

Objective: Receive the first set of contracts from Nazir

In addition to Astrid and Nazir, you can converse with (and inquire about) other Brotherhood members—Arnbjorn, Babette, Cicero, Festus Krex, Gabriella, Nazir, the Night Mother, and Veezara—who offer you advice on any future quest related to this faction (speak to each between Dark Brotherhood Quests). For more information on these Dark Brotherhood members, check the “Overview” section at the start of this chapter.

Quest Conclusion

After completing one or more of Nazir’s side contracts, when you return to the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary and move into the grotto area, there’s a flurry of activity as Cicero has arrived with his mother; check the next quest for all of the details. After speaking with Astrid, head to Nazir if you’re collecting payment for any of the first three contracts.

Postquest Activities

You usually return to Nazir once Dark Brotherhood Quest: Sentenced to Death has already begun.
