This section of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim guide covers the beginning of the A Chance Arrangement quest walkthrough. This is a brief overview of the quest’s main part. The only necessary step is to speak with Brynjolf, but it must be done during daylight hours.
New main objective: Meet Brynjolf during daytime
Keep in mind that this is a side quest that you can complete while doing A Cornered Rat. If you used Speech to persuade Brynjolf to reveal Esbern’s hiding place or found the old man on your own, you don’t have to complete it.
You can find Brynjolf at Riften’s main square. As he mentioned, this meeting must take place during the day, between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. If it’s not the right time, you can sleep in a bed or wait until morning. To skip time, press T and select the number of hours to pass. Once you find Brynjolf (shown in the screenshot above), start a conversation to begin the mission. He’ll summon other traders, allowing you to start the quest.
