When Delphine says you got the dragon stone from Bleak Falls Barrow from her, what does she mean?

[Rumpelforeskin]

I got that stone because it happened to be there when I was sent to find that innkeeper's dragon claw. Did Delphine leave it there or something?

[Iced Tea]

No. And I ain't spoiling nothing.

If you ask Farengar about how he knows the stone is there he tells you he "Has his sources". If you don't do the golden claw quest and instead get the bleak falls barrow quest straight form Farengar Delphine is at Dragonsreach talking to him.

[Rumpelforeskin]

So essentially this is a bug if I got the stone solely because the innkeeper sent me there for his claw?

[Bomb Bloke]

No. Delphine simply happens to know that the stone was there. If you keep playing the game you might even find out why.

Note that she wasn't the one who sent you after a claw. That was a shopkeeper.

No it is always there, it just allows you to get it early, you just miss that small conversation if you do.

Just assume that Farengar, being Farengar, told her that he sent you to BFB for the stone based on the info she gave him.
