Detailed Walkthrough
This quest is the last in the Lysandus series. Having successfully finished it, you have completed half of the original mission given to you by the emperor. All that will be left is the totem series of the quests.
Gaining entrance to the main part of Woodborne Hall
You start at the entrance hall of the castle. A couple of enemies will be waiting to welcome you — kill them. To proceed further, you must reach the very top of the hall. If you have a levitation spell, you can proceed onward to the next section of the walkthrough. If you can't leviatate, you must first find a way to reach the top level. This can be done by pulling four levers that will construct a ramp leading up to the top. You can pull these levers at will — they don't need to be pulled in a specific order.
To find the first two levers, go south from the entrance and take the elevator up.
Jump down at the first level and go north from the elevator-shaft. Follow the hallway until you reach a room with two levers. Pull the left one and the right lever will open a door to a small room containing two enemies. Go back to the elevator and take it to the top level.
From the elevator, go west past an intersection and into a room at the end of the hallway. Two enemies will be in this room. After you have taken care of them, pull the lever in the next room. Go back to the entrance hall.
From the entrance, go north and take the elevator up. The elevator goes up as soon as you step on the platform.
Jump off the elevator at the first level and go west until you reach an enemy next to a torch. After the enemy is disposed, pull the torch and a secret door will open. Inside this secret room, you find another lever you must pull. Go back to the elevator and ride it up to the top.
On the top level, follow the hallway past an intersection. On the north wall of the hallway is a secret door opposite a tiny room. Open the secret door and go through. Pull the lever at the end of the corridor. Go back to the entrance hall.
Now that the ramp is constructed, go up to the very top of the entrance hall and enter the main dungeon.
Main Part
Once you are inside the main dungeon, go through the door at the end of the corridor. Follow the hallway and go north through a landing, then up a ramp to a second landing.
From the second landing, go north and turn east. Go through the door and walk further north.
Follow the hallway further north past a door and go through the door at the end of the hallway. Head west and go up to another landing. There you must choose whether you want to find and kill Lord Woodborne or go for his diary.
Finding Lord Woodborne
If you want to find Lord Woodborne, go north to another landing and turn east. Follow the hallway through yet another landing until you reach an intersection. Walk past this intersection and at the second intersection turn east. Go through the door at the end.
Follow the hallway east and walk north until you come to a four-way intersection. From there, go north and up the hallway. Follow the hallway until you come to another intersection, then turn north and keep walking until the hallway takes a turn to the west.
Walk up the hallway until you reach a forking. Take the southeast forking and follow the hallway. Enter the first room to your right and you have found Lord Woodborne who is a knight-class enemy.
Lord Woodborne looks like any other knight (sometimes even a female knight). When you first attack him, he casts three spells: spell reflection, shield, and heal on himself. If you are a spell-caster, hit him with all kinds of nondestructive spells first. No matter what your skills are, don't waste a magical item or use a spell in the first attack that inflicts damage, since it will just get healed. Kill the lord to avenge Lysandus' death. When Woodborne is dead, you will see a video sequence telling you that Lysandus' spirit is finally put to rest.
King Lysandus is at last able to rest;
the wraiths and ghosts of his loyal soldiers
vanish as his soul passes to the underworld,
leaving the city of Daggerfall to the living.
Backtrack to the dungeon's entrance if you haven't set a recall anchor there.
Finding Lord Woodborne's Diary
If you want to get Lord Woodborne's diary, go east from the landing and through another landing. Follow the hallway down and turn east at the intersection. Go through this hallway past a secret door until you reach a normal door. Go through this door.
Follow the hallway east and watch out for enemies that are waiting in the rooms along the way. When you reach an elevator shaft, you will notice a wall blocking your way to the west. Just drop down the shaft and ride the elevator to the top. Ride it down again and the wall will be gone; however, if you go too far away from the shaft the wall will come up again. In this case you must take the elevator up and down again. Once the wall is gone, go into the room. Watch out for the two enemies there, usually a battlemage and a spellsword. Among some treasures, you will find a page of Lord Woodborne's diary which says the following:
Page 7
...from childhood. I know that Gothryd would not refuse his aid, but I must bide my time to ask. After all, Elysana is still heiress of Wayrest and I am her bethrothed. So it should be that when Eadwyre dies (which he is bound to do, sooner rather than later) I will be king.
If it weren't for that bitch queen and her brats, I would and could be patient. Never trust a dark elf the old saying goes, for you cannot read truth in their eyes. If Barenziah has her way, Helseth will be heir and Elysana will be married off to some far-off kingdom. Morgiah is already promised to the heir of Firsthold, but they keep her around to spread the poison against Elysana, and especially, me. Barenziah doesn't trust me, this I can tell. I will deal with her just as I did with Lysandus. The fool should have agreed to support me. Gortwog and his orcs almost saved him. I'll deal with those sub-humans once I sit upon the throne of Wayrest.
First it is important to solidify my power base. I can (almost certainly) rely on Gothryd to support my bid for the throne, if Helseth is made heir. I have a spy network equalling Eadwyre, Gothryd, Akorith-i, or the Emperor. Perhaps the Necromancers and the Underking's networks are more extensive, but I doubt it. The problem is raw physical power. I do not have a standing army. I need the gold to raise...
This diary reveals that he is plotting against King Eadwyre of Wayrest. Backtrack to the dungeon's entrance if you haven't set a recall anchor there. Take the diary's page to someone who can use it against Lord Woodborne and his fate will be sealed, thus Lysandus' death will be avenged and you will also see the video sequence telling you his spirit was put to rest.
Giving the diary's page to Akorithi will do nothing. She takes the book and burns it. Giving it to Aubk-i or Gothryd will severely lower your legal reputation and generate lots of assassins. Presenting it to Barenziah, Eadwyre, or Helseth results in the arrest and execution of Lord Woodborne. Giving it to Medora, Mynisera, or Nulfaga will cause Lord Woodborne to be slain by magic. Gortwog and the King of Worms just keep the book to blackmail Woodborne. Therefore to complete the quest, you have to give it to one of these people: Barenziah, Eadwyre, Helseth, Medora, Mynisera, or Nulfaga. In the end, the lord dies anyway, so why not have fun and kill him yourself.
Depending on the person to whom you gave Lord Woodborne's diary, you will get the following message:
If you gave the diary to Akorithi:
This means little to me. It is trash fit only for being burnt. Gothryd and Woodborne plotting to kill Lysandus. Really! Go away.
If you gave the diary to either Medora, Mynisera or Nulfaga:
Lord Woodborne is the slayer of my dear Lysandus. There shall be justice, and it shall come from my hand! You would do best to stay clear of Woodborne Hall and Wayrest for some time (player's name).
If you gave the dairy to either Barenziah, Edwayre or Helseth:
This is atrocious! After all the affection we showered on that fool Woodborne! We nearly married that villianous [sic] swine to Elysana -- nearly handed the throne of Wayrest to a cad of the first order! Good (player's name), it was the right thing to do to bring this to our attention. Rest assured that Lord Woodborne will be arrested and executed for his treason, his name barred from the books of honor, his acquaintances interrogated, his fortune confiscated. As a gift, please allow me to give you (random gold) gold pieces as your share of his property confiscations.
If you gave the diary either to Gortwog or the King of Worms:
This information is quite valuable (player's name) Let me gift you with (random gold) gold for giving it to me. This will be quite handy in the coming conflict.
If you gave the diary either to Aubk-i or Gothryd:
You were completely correct to bring this to me. Otherwise it might have gotten out where it could do Lord Woodborne damage. Guards! Kill this (player's race)!
In addition, giving the diary to Aubk-i, Gothryd, Gortwog or the King of Worms will NOT trigger the video sequence.

Notes
- The reward you get from Barenziah, Eadwyre or Helseth will disappear once the quest is over due an oversight.
- It is intended for Gortwog or the King of Worms to give you a random amount of gold if you bring the diary to either of them, but actually you get nothing.
- There is a third-party patch which fixes the above two issues in the questfile. It can be found here.
- The start of the Totem quest is triggered from within this quest, but not before all three subplots of the Main Quest (finding the emperor's letter, helping the KoW getting the lich's soul and avenging Lysandus' death) were completed successfully. Hence, it is theoretically possible to kill Lord Wordborne and get the reward by handing over the diary in case any of the two other subplots has not yet been completed.
