Should You Tell Arvena the Truth?

Tell Her the Truth for Speechcraft Skill

Since Speechcraft is a little bit harder to level up compared to Acrobatics, it is recommended to tell Arvena the truth. Tell her that Quill-Weave was behind it in order to get your quest reward as well as the one-level boost to your Speechcraft.

Cover for Quill-Weave to Improve Acrobatics
