Remember the talk of the Gourmet before the last incident with Cicero? Your next objective is to find him, kill him, then find a way to take the chefвЂ™s place at the next dinner for the Emperor.

Drag BalagogвЂ™s Body to a Hiding Place (OPTIONAL).

Here is the travel schedule regardless of if you pick it up or not: The travel schedule is found on a table at the Penitus Oculatus Outpost, and you must find it in order to receive your bonus. You forfeit your bonus (a measly 100 gold and the important OlavaвЂ™s Token for the Dark Brotherhood Radiant Quest вЂ“ The Feeble Fortune) if you kill him anywhere outside a city, meaning that even if he runs outside the limits, which he is very likely to do, you will not receive anything. To receive the said bonus, you must kill Gaius in one of his city locations and not in Dragon Bridge or any of the connecting roads he travels on. You can refer to the list below of his locations depending on the day of the week and kill him anywhere you can locate him, or you can find the travel schedule and stalk him into a town in order to receive a bonus. You also need to look for any information on the Gourmet, the secretive master chef who will be cooking for the Emperor at a private dinner coming up soon. Gaius is on a mission to check each of the major cities in Skyrim, and it is your mission to kill him and plant a letter on his dead body. It hardly matters to a relentless assassin like you now.

Someone will take care of them, or theyвЂ™ll starve. Collect the Abandoned Shack Key and learn the phrase to enter the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary, then leave the other innocent victims behind.

Instead of leaving you and your unique talents in the crappy shack, she invites you to become a member of the elite organization. She will congratulate you on your cold-blooded nature and tell you that it didnвЂ™t matter who was the real contract because all of them were innocent. Regardless of your reasoning (or lack thereof), kill your choice and return to Astrid. Take your pick of a victim by whatever means you choose. (That means no Shadowmere or future contracts.) If you kill Astrid, you can escape from the Abandoned Shack with the key on her corpse, along with the Blade of Woe.Д«e forewarned: if you kill Astrid and partake on the next quest, all the future quests with the Dark Brotherhood will be inaccessible from then out. I guess I presume thats where they went and that they are safe and sound.She is a difficult opponent at lower levels, so sneak attacks are wise whenever possible. The only issue with that is I can't gain access to the Dawnstar Sanctuary without doing the DB quest part that sends Cicero there. I read that in the DB questline he goes to the Dawnstar Sanctuary and I suppose it would make sense for him to arrive at Falkreath, see the carnage and realize that sanctuary has been compromised, and bring the Night Mother to Dawnstar. So where has he gone? I returned some while later back to the Falkreath Sanctuary, and nothing has changed in there.

I haven't asked the farmer, but I doubt he has any dialogue on where Cicero went.

After destroying the DB, I returned to where Cicero was broken down and he is no longer there.

This makes sense, because he had been waiting for the farmer all the while.

I destroyed the Dark Brotherhood, but Cicero was not in the Falkreath Sanctuary, nor was the Night Mother (unless they are in a secret spot in there I haven't found).

I stumbled upon Cicero with his broken wagon wheel and not knowing what was in it or who he was, I helped him by persuading the farmer to fix his wagon.

So I have a interesting set of playthrough circumstances here and I am wondering if I might be able to track down Cicero & the Night Mother.
