Here is the link you need http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Silenced_Tongues
Bugs:
The swinging spiked door may be sprung by draugr and then not reset, making the rest of the northeast branch inaccessible. Sometimes the ceremonial weapons are unable to be picked up. Reloading a past save should fix this.Putting in the sword first, then getting the axe and putting it in, may make the door inoperable.If you have the ceremonial weapons on you, the door might not take the weapons, making the rest of the quest and the word wall inaccessible. This may occur if you pick up one of the weapons before starting the quest.Drop the weapon(s) and then activate the door to start the quest and it should take the weapons.

I'm having the same problem. I'm trying to do the 'Trouble In Skyrim' quest for The Companions so I can become a werewolf and not be a Vampire Lord anymore. I don't have the weapons derek was talking about. i guess i'm 100% screwed. Unless someone can give me some help?

try turning off all mods. that was my prob. then turn on 1 by 1 to see which mod. was giving u probs.
Save before you drop weapons. I noticed my axe would disappear and only the sword was there when I came back in. I ended up dropping the sword and book inside. Went outside and dropped the axe. Went back in and then went out again and picked up the axe and went in again. I then noticed I couldn't drop the axe again as the game was counting it as a quest item. So then when I picked up the journal and it finally gave me the quest. Picked up the sword and the door acivated. Confusing but better than redoing a bunch of stuff if you don't have a close save.
