Quest-Related Events

He will hail you as you approach:

Sergeant Tegula: "Traveler! Do you know what happened to the cohort at Rustwall?"

Speak with him to see what he is talking about:

"A moment, traveler. A detachment of legionaries should be roaming the grounds of Rustwall. We came to meet them, but we can't find a soul. No legionaries, no servants. Not even a gardener.
I'm at a loss as to what has become of them."

Why did you expect to find legionaries at this estate?

"My commanding officer, Tribune Alea Idolus, sent a cohort to guard Rustwall. With the recent troubles plaguing the Weald, she didn't want to chance an enemy gaining a foothold this close to Skingrad.
But we arrived to find not a single legionary!"

You mentioned enemies. Could the cohort have been attacked?

"The tribune and I didn't see any signs of combat. Just an empty courtyard. She ordered me to do one more sweep of the area and then report back to Skingrad, but I hate the idea of leaving her here alone.
Will you aid Tribune Alea in her search?"

I can help Tribune Alea. Where can I find her?

"Look for Tribune Alea inside the walls of the estate, in the courtyard.
Know that the tribune can be somewhat demanding, but she's a fine officer. And I'm sure she'll pay you for any aid you provide. The Legion hires mercenaries all the time."

Before you leave, you can take the opportunity to ask questions about Tribune Alea and the estate:

What should I know about Rustwall Estate?

"Count Calantius of Skingrad owns the estate. Uses it when he needs a break from the politics of his court. I think he lets visiting dignitaries stay here, too.
All I know for sure is that I was sent to meet the cohort here, but I can't find them.'

Tell me about the Imperial Legion.

"The Imperial Legion protected the empire when there was still an empire to protect. With those three pretenders fighting over the Ruby Throne in Cyrodiil, the West Weald Legion primarily defends Skingrad and its vassals.
I'm proud to serve."

Tell me about Tribune Alea Idolus.

"The tribune is one of our best officers. I've served with her since before Clivia Tharn took the throne. We mostly attend to local matters now.
While her methods occasionally stray from standard Legion protocol, she always achieves results."

What do you mean about methods?

"The Legion thrives on order. Hierarchy. That's what keeps it functioning among the chaos. Tribune Alea practices a looser approach on the battlefield.
Never mind. It's inappropriate for me to criticize my tribune. To a stranger, no less."

Notes
