Side Contract: Kill Deekus

New main goal: Eliminate Deekus

Important! This mission is not mandatory and can only be obtained upon completing The Silence Has Been Broken quest.

To activate this quest, you must ask Nazir for new contracts while conversing with him. It is crucial to note that this contract, as well as others, will only be available once all previous side contracts have been completed. Leave the Dark Brotherhood’s Sanctuary and open the world map. Deekus can be found in the area called Hela’s Folly (shown in the image above). This location is situated in the northern part of Skyrim, and if you have not yet discovered it, you should begin your journey in Dawnstar, which is close to the shipwreck.

Deekus has set up camp on a tiny island near the shipwreck (as seen in the image above), so you will have to swim to reach him. Beware of wild animals that may be present. However, you do not need to worry about guards, as the target is located in complete wilderness.

It is highly recommended to wait until nightfall, as Deekus is likely to be asleep by then. Crouch and approach him cautiously (as shown in the image above), taking care to avoid any bear traps that may be present in the area. Eliminate Deekus in any way you see fit, such as stabbing him with a dagger or shooting an arrow at his head.

New main goal: Report back to Nazir

You may now return to the Dark Brotherhood’s Sanctuary and inform Nazir of your success. If you intend to complete other contracts assigned by him, it is advisable to return to the assassins’ hideout only after completing all of them. Nazir will compensate you with gold for your efforts.
