Detailed WalkthroughEdit

Fitz-Fitz has found a client who seeks possession of one of Firewatch's most valuable items: the Stone of Septimia. It is held within the College of Firewatch, a large building in the north of the city. Enter the college and find the museum wing. The Stone of Septimia is upstairs and watched by a single guard. Steal it and return it to Fitz-Fitz. The delighted Argonian will try the jewelry on (assuming that you haven't already and can therefore choose to warn her!), revealing a curse placed upon the necklace. When worn, it summons a hostile dremora.

Once the curse has been revealed to Fitz-Fitz and the dremora is dead, she will give you 1,000 gold in payment and tell you to come back tomorrow. Wait 24 hours then speak to Fitz-Fitz about the Stone of Septimia again. As uneasy as she is to say it, your job now is to return the Stone to the museum without being caught.

The return visit to the college's museum is harder, as entry to the museum is now forbidden in light of the theft. You will need to be stealthy should you choose to enter without permission. If you are noticed, you will be told to leave, or else challenged to combat. While you can still place the stone back on its pedestal if a fight breaks out, Fitz-Fitz will not be pleased with your obviousness, and any further financial reward will be withheld.

You can do two things to make your return of the stone easier. First, speak to the headmistress for permission to access the museum, and then create a distraction inside to distract the museum guards.

Getting PermissionEdit

Jeanette Sitte is the college's headmistress and can be found in the college's library. The library is behind a level 100 locked door. You can obtain a key to this door by enrolling in a course. To do this, speak to Marilus Arjus near the college entrance. You will need 25+ Speechcraft and a large sum of money to enroll. Two of the college's lecturers, Adrieldan and Tedyne Llarom, also carry copies of the key.

Jeanette spends her time on the library's top floor. She'll agree to grant museum access to you with 80+ disposition or if you are a member of the Fighters Guild. Now when you enter the museum and are challenged, you will be able to say you have the headmistress' permission to be there. This will only allow you unfettered access to the lower floor, however. The next optional step is to create a distraction using one of the exhibits.

Creating a DistractionEdit

The museum's lower floor features a large Kamal Bone Fragment on a display counter. Assuming you can reach this fragment without being challenged, you can push it over to make a loud noise. This action will quickly bring all guards in the museum down to investigate the fragment, allowing you easy access to the pedestal where the Stone of Septimia was previously kept.

Reporting BackEdit

Once the Stone of Septimia has been safely returned to the pedestal, speak again to Fitz-Fitz for your final reward. Assuming that you returned the stone without a fight breaking out, the Argonian will handsomely reward you with a further 1,000 gold.
