Question

I reloaded an earlier save, and it still isn't working. What else can I try?

Community Answer

Try talking to the quest giver again, or maybe you messed it up before and have to restart.

Question

Can I keep my current follower when the Jarl offers her Housecarl?

Community Answer

Yep! Either your current follower will leave and go to where they were recruited, or the Housecarl will not follow you and remain in the Keep/Housecarl Quarters in your house.

Question

If I have a high bounty and don't have the money to pay it off before buying the manor, what should I do?

Community Answer

Go to jail and do your sentence -- this will allow you to lose the bounty without paying it off. (The only downside is that you lose a little bit of accumulated skill.) You should deposit any stolen items in a safe place before going to jail, as the guards will take your stolen items.

What do I do if I have a very high bounty early in the game, and can't buy property on my Xbox 360?

Pay off your bounty, or work on getting a house in a town where you don't have a bounty.

What do I do if the quest mark didn't go away after I collected the smooka?

You don't collect it! You need to kill the skooma dealers to complete the quest.

Question

I've completed a quest where I had to kill the Skooma dealers. Why won't the Jarl give me the second quest?

Community Answer

You don't have another quest. You help five people of Riften and you get to be Thane.

Question

How do I trigger the quest to help the citizens?

Community Answer

Finish the skooma dealer questline and the jarl will mention there is room in her court for a thane. This should immediately assign you the quest to "Help ?/5 people of the Rift." It will be listed on your quest menu under "Miscellaneous." If you don't find it, double check that all of the skooma quests (killing the dealer in the warehouse, finding the source of the skooma, cleaning out the cave etc.) are complete. If you still don't have the quest, it may be bugged for you. Try reloading an earlier save.

Question

Can I buy Honeyside on a console?

Community Answer

Yes! Do the Skooma quest by talking to Wujeeta and helping her with the sickness. Then, ask her who gave her the Skooma, speak with the Jarl, and do as she says.

Question

How can I swift travel to Riften if I haven't discovered it yet?

You can't. You could fast travel to a major hold (Whiterun is the closest to the starting location) and take the carriage to Riften though.

Question

What do I do if I completed the quests and was never asked if I wanted to help 5 people?

Community Answer

You aren’t ever asked to help out 5 people, the Jarl just says to help the citizens, so you go talk to them and they’ll give you tasks.

Question

What should I do if I talked to the steward, but he doesn't have the information that I have helped five people?

Community Answer

That sounds like a bug, but you can close and open the quest again. If you can't do that, go to your old save file.

Question

The Jarl didn't ask me to help the people of Riften. What should I do?

Community Answer

There is the Steward (probably in another room) who can give you the quest. If not, reload a save file from before the quest and try again.

This might be a bug. Scroll up and down on the dialogue options to make sure it isn't there. If it still isn't, you'll have to reload a save file from before you talked to her.

Question

Can my follower permanently die?

Community Answer

If you were more specific it would really help this answer but most followers can die. However, if they are essential (needed for a quest), then they cannot die until that quest is completed. They will just go down onto one knee until their health returns but all other followers, including housecarls, can die.
