Jora's Gold Quest Failed

[hoskope]

I happened to fail this somehow. Once i got to the thief, i didn't report him, and i let him go. So, i returned the gold to Jora, but quest is failed.

So, is there any other way to still to fix this - or is the only option to go to thieves guild to beat/kill that thief and get key from him?

[D'amarr from Darshiva]

Please clarify. You've not reported Rengaru to Lord Andre. Have you reported anyone else to Lord Andre? Such as Halvor or Nagur?

If you don't report either one, you get the key from Attila (aka Attile). If you report at least one of those three, Attila would attack you, and you can take the key from him if you beat him.

Well jora is a businessman he wont give you money as a reward. You will information as a rewards first hand and something else later if you stumble upon a certain individual. The information and the individual I will not spoil for you. The quest did not fail dont worry.

I don't follow either. The reason may be there is no quest called 'Jora's gold'. Jora gives you two quests regarding his stolen gold:
1) A merchant's gold
2) A brazen thief

You say you chased Rengaru but let him go. That means you failed 'A brazen thief', which is good if you want to join the thieves guild.

You also say you got back Jora's gold from Rengaru, since you say you returned Jora's gold to him. That means you completed 'A merchant's gold', which is helpful for dealing with Alrik later on but has no impact on your standing with the thieves guild.

If you mean you failed both 'A brazen thief' and 'A merchant's gold', this has no negative impact on your standing with the thieves guild. The quests that you need to complete in favour of the thieves guild are the following:

• 'A brazen thief'
  
• 'Bandit raids' + 'The fishmonger'
  
• 'The false messenger' (related to the quest 'Baltram's shipment')

Yeah, i've just started playing the game and sorry for not using proper names. Completed G1 few days ago, and now on G2.

What i did was i didn't report Rengaru to Lord Andre, i let him go after getting the gold. Then after that i just gave 50g back to Jora. So, this ended up failing the A Brazen Thief quest.

I was just worried that i'm not getting to thiefs guild, because want to learn pick pocketing, but i guess i can later on. I just completed the False Messenger quest and will continue now.
