In this assignment, you have multiple targets once again. You must eliminate all members of the Draconis Family—Perennia Draconis, Matthias Draconis, Andreas Draconis, Sibylla Draconis, and Caelia Draconis.
Find Information on Family Members' Locations
| # | Step-by-step Walkthrough |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Head to the Applewatch farm, located west of Bruma. To get there, travel to Bruma then exit through the North Gate. Run westward until you reach the Applewatch farm. |
| 2 |  Look for Perennia Draconis and talk to her. Select the dialogue option stating that you are looking for her children. She will think that you are the delivery service she hired to buy gifts for her children and will give you the list detailing their locations. |
| 3 |  After obtaining the list, you can proceed to kill Perennia Draconis. |
Kill All Draconis Family Members
| Draconis Family Member | Location |
|---|---|
| Matthias Draconis | Talos Plaza District, Imperial City |
| Sibylla Draconis | Muck Valley Cavern |
| Caelia Draconis | Castle Leyawiin |
| Andreas Draconis | The Drunken Dragon Inn |
You will learn where each family member is when you read the Draconis Gift List given by Perennia Draconis.
Matthias Draconis - Talos Plaza District, Imperial City
Head to the Talos Plaza District in the Imperial City. Matthias is a guard for the Umbacano Manor.
You can find him patrolling around the mansion between 6am and 6pm. He will either be at the backyard garden or enter the house and patrol the ground floor or the basement.
The quickest way to deal with Matthias is to sneak up on him and stab him in the back while he's doing his routine patrol around the mansion.
Sibylla Draconis - Muck Valley Cavern
Head to the Muck Valley Cavern, located east of the Imperial City. To get there, you can fast travel to Fort Magia and ride towards the east until you discover the Muck Valley Cavern.
Enter through the wooden door and proceed further inside the cave until you find Sibylla. There are wild animals prowling within the cave, so move stealthily if you wish to avoid fighting them.
You can kill Sibylla through direct combat, but the wild beasts will join in attacking you. Or you may also kill her by sneaking up on her.
Caelia Draconis - Castle Leyawiin
Head to Leyawiin. Caelia is a city watch guard, so she is always armored and armed.
The best way to deal with her is to wait for her to finish her watch at 7am. She will go to a private room on the second floor of the Three Sisters Inn, specifically the 2nd Floor West room. The door has a hard lock, which you will need to lockpick to gain entry.
Sneak up to the room and eliminate Caelia inside.
Andreas Draconis - The Drunken Dragon Inn
Head to The Drunken Dragon Inn, located northeast of Leyawiin. Andreas owns the inn and tends to the establishment at the attendant's table.
Same as Matthias, you can sneak up on Andreas and stab him in the back. An Imperial Legion Soldier may be drinking inside when you arrive. Avoid drawing attention to prevent confrontation. Fortunately, he will be facing the fireplace, his back turned to Andreas, meaning he won’t witness the assassination.
Pick Up Reward and Next Contract
Head to Castle Skingrad. Enter through the door leading to the Courtyard, then go straight to the Stone Well. Open the Stone Well to retrieve your reward and next contract.
Next of Kin: How to Kill the Family Without Getting A Bounty?
No Witness and NPC Attacks First
You can do the following methods to not incur a bounty when killing the Draconis Family members:
- Kill them stealthily, without any witnesses.
- When guards or others are present, cast a Frenzy on them to make them attack others and you.
- Provoke them to attack you first.
Note: An NPC attacking you first will not incur you bounties if you fight back and end up killing them.
Next of Kin Rewards
Gold
You will receive 500 Gold as a reward for completing the quest Next of Kin.
