Next of Kin quest


Is there any way to kill Caelia Draconis without getting a bounty? I tried breaking into her room, removing all the food and reverse pick pocketing a poisoned apple into her inventory. But even afer waiting for 2 days, she wont die and the apple it still on her. When she sits down to eat it sorta looks like its the apple shes eating, but nothing happens.

I can perform a sneak attack by crouching down at the door next to her chair, but even getting a x6 attack power 1 hit kill, I still get a 1k bounty. I can always get out of the city, go to the Imperial City waterfront and get my bounty slashed in half, but its still a pain. If I get a clean 1 hit sneak kill, who the hell is seeing me to apply the bounty?!

If you have a decent Alchemy skill, simply make a couple of damage health poisons. Wait until there aren't any guards nearby (say, the middle of the night) and choose "Unfortunately, I need you dead." Reduce her health yourself to a low enough level that the poison can finish her off. So long as she takes the last bit of damage from the poison, you get no bounty at all, as she attacked first.

I heard a rumour that you're an idiot, is there any truth to that?

I've never tried making potions, so my alchemy level is really low. Guess I have no choice but to accept the bounty.
