The Elder Scrolls 5’s organization of stealthy kleptomaniacs, the Thieves Guild is a group on the decline and it’s up to the Dragonborn to save the faction and restore it to its former glory. But in an organization that values secrecy so much, there’s bound to be a few interesting pieces of information its members are hiding. So today we’ll be taking a look at five Thieves Guild facts you may have missed in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim

      At the end of the quest there was 1 person living 2 lives - The Grey Fox and then The Player, you could have taken your mask in front of NPC and they wouldnt realise it, which means nobody knows who Grey Fox is ( the only one is the ex Grey Fox that gave us the mask, curse and title ). So all we know is that Rune was found when he was a "Young Boy", and lets be honest, how much do we remember from our childhood. So it can be still possible that one of his parents is the Grey Fox.

    Tiny Detail:
    In Whiterun, the ingredient Nightshade, can only be found at Arcadia's Cauldron (an Alchemy shop) and Whiterun's Hall of the Dead (specifically the Gravestones).
    Other than standard fare for an Alchemy shop, this implies that Whiterun citizens plant Nightshade on the graves of their dead.
    Carlotta Valentia is a single mother merchant of Whiterun, whose husband has passed away. The Valentia House is the only other location to have Nightshade on its premises in Whiterun, hidden between the wall and the house itself.
    With this information, it could be implied that the husband was unceremoniously buried behind the house, almost as if it was done in secrecy.
    The Enchanter's Primer secretly tucked away between the dresser and bed, may suggest that the husband didn't leave willingly...

    Just to clarify something about the Morag Tong, they were legal in Morrowind. There's a full faction quest line where you work for them, and guards will let you go after you kill your target since you have a Writ of Execution in your inventory. You also get to kill some Dark Brotherhood members as part of the quest line, because they're banned on the island.

Do you really expect someone to know every little detail about every single game whether they've played them or not? It's ridiculous to think that! I've played 3 so far and I definitely don't know that much.

      2. For the most part people should usually take whatever is presented to them at face value (we don't, but we should) because not everything we get told is true, we just hope it is. Fact checking is always a good idea so you don't spread misinformation, but for a game and things like it, it's not the end of the world if something is wrong and if people want to learn more about something and find out "hey this thing was wrong" then cool! If Nate says something wrong, point it out to him and direct him to a SOURCE so he can fix the misinformation! Just telling me that he gets things wrong doesn't help your case too much because you gave me a statement, no proof.

    1. I don't remember encountering the Altmer thieves guild. When was that?
    2. So Rune really never was resolved? I think I got him mixed up with the other quest for the Dunmer in the Riften market, but I thought his story was resolved, and I just couldn't remember it.

    I dont know whether you already cover this or not but i'll share it anyway:
    1. Sapphire is actually the daughter of Glover Mallory (the blacksmith on Raven Rock, Solsteim)
    2. You can find out about this, if the player has registered as the member of the thieves guild, the player can actually talk to Glover as he is actually one the members of thieves guild and the brother of Delvin.... then, after that Glover will give you a quest which upon completion, he will give you access to his basement filled with loot.... and in that basement you can find a letter Glever wrote for Sapphire
    3. And you can actually take that letter and give it to sapphire... and that will unlock unique dialog from her and personally i think it would hopefully give her some closure(?) To her tragic past
    I think it still counts as "secret of the thieves guild" cos the game never actually tell us (directly) about this... even the act of giving the letter to Sapphire wont show in your quest journal...
    Amazing video as always Nate, keep up the good work

    So i just found out that linwe's armour has its own 4 unique enchantmens for stealth skills stronger then the originals.
    I always wondered if runes name is linked to the bug jars ?

    Idk, if I was Vex I'd probably take Delvin up on his offer. That was a pretty saucy letter 😏. But I kinda wish you could help Sapphire "take care" of Vipir the Fleet.

    I thought you were going to mention Sapphire's parentage which is sort of a secret as it isn't common knowledge, but you can find letters in Glover Mallory's house detailing some information.

      You can go as far as take the letter Sapphire, where she gives you an extremely valuable sapphire worth 5000 gold in return.
