I didn't get the The Forsworn Conspiracy quest.

[wind0sun]

Assasination happended but no one came to give me the note. I didn't notice it and kept playing so I don't have any saves to go back to, Is there anything that I can do?

[MaximumEffort]

Which assassination.

[wind0sun]

The one that happens in Markrath, market place.

Thats a scripted event. Happens when tou first enter Markarth.

You need to follow up on the murder to get the quest. Talk to the victims family and/or get the message from the killers body.

Try and look for Eltrys, I believe he sleeps in the Warrens. Are you using any mods like The Choice Is Yours that tweak quests so you don't get them forced onto you?

Nope, in normal gameplay (without mods) you don't find any message on the body, the victim's family are in Cyrodiil (no mod that changes that AFAIK), and you are normally force-greeted by Eltrys who comes to very subtly give you a note that you 'dropped'. I think Immersive Citizens may also change this, btw (because I've been playing with that, forgot to install TCIY and still didn't have him force greet me, IIRC.)

Could be I haven't played that part for years. But didn't the victim have a husband and son you can talk to afterwards? And I do remember that 'drop' part, but as he said he ignored and left the quests.

One can always use console to start the quest.

[wind0sun]

Thanks people, first I went to victim's inn room and read her diary then when I come out a guard warned me, then I went and found Eltrys like you said and quest started. Yes I use immersive citizens btw.

[GrimCat]

Sometimes Eltrys gets lost on his way to give you the note.

[gnewna]

Yeah, I'm not sure if Immersive Citizens is *meant* to make this change, but basically because it makes most NPCs actually have a proper daily routine, go wandering around, etc, I find he's not just loitering around waiting for the murder to happen and give me the note like in vanilla. Glad you got it sorted!

Nope - if you save her you can talk to her, otherwise it's just a case of looting her corpse for her room key/picking the lock to her room. You may be thinking of the optional dialogue options that the female jeweller and the guy who sells meat in the marketplace have? (though yeah, it all does tend to blur after a while!)

[quote[One can always use console to start the quest. [/quote]

Really not advisable to use the console for this kind of thing unless *nothing* else is working and it's essential to your playthrough that you do the quest.

[Mr. Monday]

Maybe you guys have an older version of IC. I have that mod as well and I never had an issue with Eltrys starting the quest (aside from him trying to give it to me before I want him to).

[Uncle64]

There is one mod that messes whit those events.
It messes also whit the events in Solitude. It is made for stopping couriers to talk and stop you, but is stops quest like the one you have issues whit.
You dont have this mod installed?
