Detailed Walkthrough

The Kleptomaniac

Around Crucible you will overhear the citizens speaking about someone named Earil who is having a problem with another citizen named Brithaur. You will receive a quest update saying maybe you should find Earil and ask him about it. Earil can always be found in his store Earil's Mysteries, which doubles as his house. Speak with him and he explains that the shop owners in Crucible are constantly being robbed by a Bosmer named Brithaur. He wants you to make Brithaur stop stealing from the shops in Crucible and he doesn't care how you accomplish the task.

Motives and Madness

A quest update will tell you that maybe you should talk to Brithaur before making any hasty decisions. Find him either roaming the streets, sleeping in his house, at the Sacellum, or most often inside a closed shop stealing (although he will likely leave the shop the instant you enter). Talk to Brithaur, he will tell you that he wants to complete his collection and he can't stop stealing until he does. However, all he needs are flawless pearls, and that if you bring him five of them, he will then leave the shops alone.

The Decision

Brithaur lies dead next to his heart - that's one solution

At this point you now have three options. You can kill him, bring him the five flawless pearls, or if you are far enough along in the Main Quest, have Brithaur 'thrown into the dungeon'.

Judge

If you decide to take pity on Brithaur and help him out, flawless pearls can be found in a variety of locations. Most often Baliwogs can be found carrying them in the swamps of Dementia. A few can be found on some of the awnings in Bliss and the famed rooftops of Crucible, or purchased from occasional shop owners.

Jury

If you have completed the ritual of Dementia or the main quest if you are the duke of mania, you can speak with Kithlan in the House of Dementia about Brithaur causing troubles in town. He will tell you that he had regarded Brithaur's exploits as harmless up until now but that if they are becoming a problem, "it will be handled". Presumably this option was supposed to have Brithaur thrown into jail or tortured by Herdir, but in fact nothing occurs and Brithaur continues to wander around town unaffected, still committing his random acts of petty theft. Nevertheless, Earil will accept that you have handled the problem.

Executioner

If you choose to kill him, do so by whichever means favored. He can be found sleeping at his house very late at night and sitting in the Sacellum occasionally, assuming he is not stealing. Once he is dead take his heart to show Earil for proof.

Reward

Whatever you do, return to Earil, who is overjoyed and cannot wait to tell the other shop owners. He will give you a leveled amount of gold for your troubles. If you chose to kill Brithaur and you give Earil the heart, you will receive the "Bonus Reward" amount in the following table; in any other case, you will receive the "Standard Reward" amount.

Level	Standard Reward	Bonus Reward
1 - 4	75 Gold	100 Gold
5 - 9	150 Gold	200 Gold
10 - 14	225 Gold	300 Gold
15 - 19	300 Gold	400 Gold
20 - 24	375 Gold	500 Gold
25+	450 Gold	600 Gold

Notes

• It might be that you see Brithaur roaming the streets after you "got him thrown into the dungeon". You can speak with him about the flawless pearls and he'll say they would be "perfect".

• It appears that even after giving him the five pearls (if you chose to do so), Brithaur has not given up his life of crime. If you talk to him he will tell you how fortunate you are to have such a full purse, whereupon he will steal 1 gold from you.

• Killing Brithaur counts as murder; should you wish to remove him lawfully, a command humanoid spell coupled with a visit to the dangerous countryside or a Frenzy spell such as the Blessing of Mania will solve the issue.
