Conflict in Conviction Walkthrough
| 1 | Speak with Viktor Veth'aal |
|---|---|
 This mission triggers automatically during Aligning the Houses when you approach Veth’aal as a council liaison. Viktor Veth'aal briefs you: his son Vaeric has deserted House Va’ruun, and your task is to track him down. |
|
| 2 | Inquire about Vaeric at the Herald's Rest |
 Talk to the NPCs in Herald's Rest about Vaeric. To pass to the next objective, you have to pass a Persuasion check with at least one of them. The bartender Genna Dubari is the easiest one to pass with. However, even if you fail all Persuasion checks, the outcome is the same: you will talk with Tane Salavea. If you have Intimidate, you can intimidate Tane instead of paying 1,000 credits. |
|
| 3 | Search Northwest of Dazra for Vaeric |
 Follow the quest marker and make sure you pass through the gate seen in the image above to progress the quest. The quest marker becomes bugged if you fast travel outside of Dazra City and don't pass through the gate. |
|
| 4 | Follow the Tracker's Ping |
 Follow the tracker's ping until you reach the Abandoned Camp. Your distance from the Abandoned Camp will show up on the upper right of the screen. |
Examine the Camp
To progress the quest, you have to examine the Tracker, the Vortex Spawn, the Footsteps by the Vortex Spawn, and the Bloodstain.
| 5 | Kill the Vortex Horrors and Talk to Tane |
|---|---|
 After examining the camp, Vortex Horrors will spawn. Kill them, talk to Tane, then wait for him finish to examining the area. |
|
| 6 | Determine Which Way Vaeric Fled |
 Follow the quest marker and wait for Tane to finish examining the area where the bench is to progress the quest. |
|
| 7 | Search Northwest of the Camp for Vaeric |
 Head to Irina's Farm, which you will be directed to by the quest marker. Talk to Irina and get her to give information about Vaeric to progress the quest. |
|
| 8 | Find the Abandoned Farm |
 Follow the quest marker which will lead you to the Apostate's Refuge. |
|
| 9 | Search the Dwelling |
 Once at the abadoned farm, interact with the computer in Vaeric's room and take his log, as seen in the images above. The quest marker will then move to Tane. Talk to him then Vaeric will abruptly appear. |
|
| 10 | Tak to Vaeric and Make Your Choice |
 Talk to Vaeric. You can choose to persuade him to go with you, spare him and ask him to give you the House Veth'aal Signet Ring ring as proof of death, or just kill him and take his ring. If you manage to persuade Vaeric, he will come with you to the Keep and talk to Viktor. If you choose to spare Vaeric, you can ask him for 10,000 Credits on top of the ring. There is also an option to kill both Vaeric and Tane, but you will not be able to get Tane as a companion anymore. |
|
| 10 | Return To Viktor and Talk to Ekris After |
 Talk to Victor to get the access code, then talk to Ekris right after to conclude the quest. Note that none of the dialogue options with Viktor result in a different outcome. They are all similar regardless if you Lie or not. The only major difference in dialogue is if you manage to persuade Vaeric to come back. They will have a long conversation, and Viktor will forgive Vaeric in the end. |
