Walkthrough

Once you've acquired your armor, leave the city. At some point thereafter, you'll be contacted by a messenger from the Elder Council. Make your way to the tower; once you enter the front door, you'll view a video, then you'll have a cutscene where Councillor Ocato speaks to you. After this, you'll get another journal update telling you to go visit the manor in the Palace District (aka Green Emperor Way).

Most of the place is still under construction and thus inaccessible, but the main hall is open. Go in and look for the letter on the table near the throne (the quest arrow points to it). It will tell you about the knights you need to recruit: Sorla, Relius Curio, Clagius Infernian, Thoralf Metschlund, and Helgarth.

• Sorla can be found in the Chorrol Mages Guild. When you talk to her, she'll tell you about her current job, investigating a man named Jelin. See Uncanny Neighborhood for more details.
• Relius is hanging around in the Two Sisters Lodge. He'll join you, but in return he wants you to deliver a poem for him. See Ode to Adhelene.
• Clagius is currently serving as a guardsman in Anvil, though he spends most of his time drowning his sorrows in The Flowing Bowl. If you help him redeem his honor (see Punishment Must Be), he'll join you.
• Thoralf can be found in the Castle Brume great hall. He'll be happy to join the Order, but he's currently working for the Countess of Bruma, and he also lost his hammer. See Thoralf's Hammer.
• Helgarth can't be found initially, so don't worry about him - he'll turn up later.

Once you've found and recruited all four knights, return to the manor - they'll all be waiting there. Take your seat, and they'll come forward to swear fealty to you, after which they inquire about their pay. Their bags fief (BF) are in the chest beside the throne - you can either hand it to them directly, or place it in their chests in the sleeping quarters.

At this point, the rest of the manor will be open too, so go wild - there are lots of places to explore and secrets to be found.

{{Template:FULLPAGENAME0/Line|1=10 |2=|3=I received a grumpy messenger with the news that Lord Chancellor Ocato wants to see me as soon as possible in the Elder Council. There are important things to discuss. }}{{Template:FULLPAGENAME0/Line|1=20 |2=|3=Lord Chancellor Ocato is extremely worried. The bandit attacks have been piling up lately, more and more, and they are also well-organized, almost like a real army. The Empire is weakened and the throne also unoccupied. The Imperial Legion, as well as the Blades, seem paralyzed without the Emperor's word. These events are so inconvenient that it's impossible that they occurred by chance. }}{{Template:FULLPAGENAME0/Line|1=25 |2=|3=That's why I've been asked to establish an Order in my role as Champion of Cyrodiil. In memory of Martin Septim, I should identify who is responsible for the control of the unrest as commander of the best knights of the Empire. First, I want to move into the manor - the old building in the Palace District - and gather a few good men around me. }}{{Template:FULLPAGENAME0/Line|1=30 |2=|3=They told me that I even have to summon the knights of my order.

Notes

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in random order.
• If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
• It is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage ODDHQStart stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages. See SetStage for more information.
