And she claims that the Alik'r are assassins in the employ of the Thalmor, sent to hunt her down for speaking out against the Dominion. She charges you to kill their leader, Kematu, so she'll be safe.
When you track down Kematu, however, he claims that Saadia sold out their city to the Thalmor, and the Alik'r are looking for her to capture her and transport her back to Hammerfell, where she'll face trial for her actions.
With your help, he intends to lure her into a trap. Who do you believe? Alik'r easy, Saadia changes her story too much and it makes no sense at all. User Info: zerobobo. User Info: simonbelmont2. Yeah, the general consensus is that Saadia is lying and the Alik'r are telling the truth.
Straight up sewaside. I know that! Wow, 0 to Saadia and 10 to the Alik'r at my time of voting User Info: Browsie Lore dictates that saadias plea makes zero sense, as the majority of Hammerfell hate the dominion. Resistance and fighting against them there is alive and well, like Kematu even says to the player. It is also possible to simply exit the conversation with Kematu or tell him that you will help lure Saadia away , sneak into the room just ahead, and snipe all the warriors with your bow.
Once the Alik'r are dead, loot Kematu's corpse for bonus gold, then go get your reward from Saadia. If you decide to help the Alik'r capture Saadia, Kematu or the Redguards with whom you spoke in Rorikstead will ask you to lure her to the stables outside of Whiterun. Go back and talk to Saadia in The Bannered Mare and ask her to follow you. Once she gets to the stables, Kematu will use a paralysis spell on her. Talk to him for your reward. While Kematu and Saadia are talking at the stables, you can still kill Kematu before he casts the spell on Saadia.
This will get you the reward from Saadia and the gold that Kematu is carrying, without having to fight the rest of the Alik'r. If you kill him after he casts the spell, however, Saadia will attack you when she gets back up.
Alternatively, allow Kematu to cast the spell on Saadia and collect the gold reward, thus ending the quest, then kill Kematu to undo the spell on Saadia. At this point, Saadia will be hostile right away, so use a Calm spell on her, then talk to her, and she will give you the gold reward for killing Kematu. You can then loot Kematu's body to get gold, his attire, and his sword. Once the Calm spell ends, Saadia will become hostile again - this is a permanent state, so even if you leave the area, she will attack the next time you meet her.
Kill her and then loot her body. Don't worry about a bounty, since she provoked you to attack. She will also have gold and jewels. Both characters will be dead, but you will have gained maximum rewards, equaling 1, gold plus random jewels, a curved sword, and their clothing.

Now move along before that mouth of yours gets you into trouble. After the conversation, you can ask them who they are looking for and get the response: "We're looking for information about a woman -- a foreigner in these lands. She's a Redguard, like us. We believe she may be hiding in Whiterun, but we're checking everywhere to be sure. They all wear the standard Hammerfell garb with Redguard boots and an Alik'r hood.
When you reach the room where they hide, three of them will relax in the northern side of the room, while the other three will have their scimitars drawn, prepared to fight. Depending on your conversation with Kematu, the six warriors will either leave you alone or attack. If you leave peacefully, they will be disabled from the game once you finish the quest. How is it possible to confirm their claims? Improve this question.

Saadia and Kematu will probably have escaped by then so go ahead and kill both to be safe Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. The purpose of this quest I think is to make you question which is the right option to take.
It is intentionally unclear. My logic was this: The Alik'r were shunned by Whiterun, that's saying something. Perhaps they have a bad reputation for being dirty mercenaries. It is more likely that an individual spoke out against an organization rather than one individual causing the fall of Taneth. The Aldmeri have always been able to win fights without the assistance of individuals, especially noble women, who may or may not have access to military secrets.
If she had caused the downfall of Taneth, why would she hide outside of Aldmeri territory? She could be easily protected elsewhere. I did see this though: If you accept Kematu's request and help him capture Saadia, you may encounter a group of Thalmor Justiciars in the wild that carry a Justiciar Execution Order with your race and name.

I was attacked by a group of them, and hadn't done the Embassy, and had sided with Saadia. Was wondering why they attacked me at all, since I hadn't done anything obvious against the Thalmor yet. The rest of your points make a lot of sense though — l I. However, you must consider that the Alik'r have curved swords.
How would you like someone breaking in your house and punishing your children? They can be right but it's disrespectful. On the other hand, were they killed by 'regular' murderers this wouldn't enrage you politically. Although they are allowed to hunt down worshippers of Talos, they do not hold any authority to enforce local laws or their own in Skyrim.
Keep in mind the Aldmeri agreed to sign a peace treaty that is of great advantage but doesn't grant unlimited powers. Show 5 more comments. Kematu might be telling the truth The first time you talk to Saadia, she pulls a knife on you. While this may seem like an act of desperate defiance, it may hint at a violent and unpredictable personality.
Saadia seems hesitant to explain the full situation, while Kematu elaborates on it fully. Is Saadia's reticence due to her guilt? The man you can free from jail seems strangely honourable, saying he has shamed his companions and wants to begin anew. If Kematu really was an assassin, why paralyse her at the end of the quest - why not just stab her and be done with it? He also mentions justice, and taking her into custody, and implies that Saadia will face a trial back in Hammerfell rather than swift execution.
All this points to him and his warriors being enforcers rather than assassins. Kematu's opening line - "We can avoid any more bloodshed. This would make the dominion hiring them most strange. It is then important to consider this: Is hiring Redgaurd assassins the style of the Dominion?
They have a certain level of free reign within the Empire. Why would they need to hire human assassins to kill someone? They have the Justiciars doing that for the Thalmor. Saadia specifically wants you go and kill Kematu. Why does she want that?
