Ocheeva

Talk to Ocheeva, and she will tell you that you'll now receive contracts directly from her.

Inquire About Faelian

Vicente Valtieri

Within the Sanctuary, go around and speak to your fellow Brotherhood members to learn what they have to say about Faelian.

Vicente Valtieri has the best advice. He will suggest that you ask around the Elves in the Imperial City. Since they are a fairly close-knit community, they might know about Faelian's whereabouts.

Elf

Head to the Imperial City Market District, Green Emperor Way. Look for an elf there and talk to them about Faelian.

If the elf has a disposition of 50 and above, they will let you know that Faelian lives at the Tiber Septim Hotel in Talos Plaza.
